I bought this just for the shade. I've searched and searched but there's no other shades like this at kmart, chemist warehouse, big w, chemist warehouse or even woolworths/coles. There is a very light shade by revlon colorstay but its more pink toned. Australis 16 hr in 'snow' is almost white. I do prefer a natural or satin finish, this is matte as the name suggests. It provides light to medium coverage. It can look cakey or dry if your skin isnt at its best so its best to exfoliate and moisturise well prior if this is the case for you. Honestly I'm still looking for a better formula for my pale winter skin. Summer is easier for me. The shade is great for winter though so for now it is my go to!

I used up 1.5 bottles each of the shampoo and conditioner and my hair feels great after each use. Its more voluminious, slightly thicker feeling and very clean and soft. It feels stronger and this shampoo doesn't cause excess hair fall. I love the herbal and fruity scent of this shampoo. The ingredients are pretty good. I like the added herbal extracts and keratin. Im not too sure of any long term benefits but these things can sometimes be so subtle its hard to tell. I would repurchase as my hair benefited after each use.

Overall I'm not impressed by this product and would not buy it again. It is very light coverage, it applies very smoothly and doesn't emphasise fine lines or dry skin much. It would be good to keep in the hand bag as the lid attaches well and doesn't come off. The formula is good for under the eye area as its quite an emollient and thin formula that spreads easily. It might also suit dry skin. The coverage is minimal though, it corrects the area slightly but doesn't cover darkness well. The formula is slippery and once it is spread on the skin it provides little coverage for imperfections. It doesn't last well on the skin. It tends to fade away quite quickly. I like this crayon style of concealer, if only it had been more pigmented and less slippery.

This is an excellent facial oil that moisturises the skin well and keeps it supple and soft. I find this works well applied morning and night. I apply more at night time. It also works really well for the sensitive under eye area. For me I find this is great for all seasons apart from Winter. In winter my skin becomes super dry and rough so I apply my single ingredient wonder product instead ;) The dropper is a great addition to this product as you can measure the right amount without overdoing it.

I have considerably clearer skin using this product!! The salicylic acid is a wonder ingredient along with a bunch of other great ingredients that work harmoniously to clear up my skin. It's a clear liquid that leaves a slight sticky residue on the skin which I'm not a big fan of but it's not an issue for me. I can easily cover it up with my moisturiser and the stickiness is gone. I tend to use it every single night before bed as a toner. This does make my skin dry and slightly rough and flakey especially in winter but it's worth using this product for me to have clearer skin. I do moisturise religiously with a heavy moisturiser but it still doesn't counteract this issue. In reducing redness, it does do that with pimples but overall it doesn't reduce redness from broken capillaries or anything like that. This product also helps clear up pimples a lot faster. So far I haven't found anything better than this for clearing up my skin in terms of pimples and black heads. I've bought several bottles of this over the years and will continue to buy it. I do find it pricey though and I use it up quite quickly so I always wait for sales and buy 2 or more bottles at once. I find this liquid solution works much better than the 2% BHA lotion or gel that I bought. They don't tend to help clear up my skin.

Excellent for brightening the under eye area and making dark areas less noticeable. It's perfect to give me a little wake me up when I look tired. The formula is thin and very easily spread out, it has micro illuminating particles in it to brighten the skin. The formula gives light coverage to the under eye area and can be layered over another concealer. It doesn't accentuate fine lines much at all. This product can also be used on the brow bone and upper cheeks. I mainly use it for under the eyes though as I have a powder highlighter for other areas.

I bought this and used it a bunch of times but found it was too dark for my fair skin. I am NC15 in MAC. This was too yellow toned and also too dark. In comparison the Loreal magic lumi was the perfect match for my skin colour and was an even nicer formula to this. The formula is reasonably thin and easy to spread out. It applies smoothly and doesn't sink into fine lines as much as other concealers. It does provide light coverage to the under eye area. The dial up tubed worked well for me, I found it quite easy to use. I dial up enough to apply to my under eye area then spread out with a finger.

This is not a harsh cleanser like a lot of cleansers are. It does not strip the skin of it's natural oils. It actually helps prevent pimples as it doesn't cause irritation or strip the skin which can lead to pimples. It leaves my skin feeling clean and soft. I apply a 20 cent size worth to my hand and gently rub into my face. Then I use a soft face cloth to remove the cleanser and any dirt and excess oil on my skin. I've used up 4 tubes of this already and keep coming back to it. I definitely recommend using a gentle cleanser like this rather than stripping the skin with overly foaming or harsh cleansers. This cleanser along with a soft cloth removes all the dirt and excess oil without causing damage.

I am in love with this foundation because its full coverage whilst still being a thin lightweight formula that is easily spread out. One pump is enough for my whole face as it's quite pigmented and concentrated. I will sometimes pat on extra for parts of my skin where I need more coverage. I find I still need a primer, under eye concealer and sometimes a blemish concealer as it doesn't quite manage to rid the darkness under my eyes or cover pesky blemishes. When I purchased this foundation I never really expected it to live up to these claims especially as I'm no longer in my 20's so I'm not at all disappointed. The finish is smooth looking and doesn't emphasise dry skin as long as a primer is used. The end look is slightly matte but still natural looking. This foundation lasts me all day long without fading much at all. It starts to fade just a little after 6 hours but not so much that it starts to look bad. I find this foundation perfectly suits my combination skin as my tzone stays quite matte for several hours and my dry areas don't become tight. The bottle is nice looking and the pump is super easy to use. I use crystal beige which is an ivory colour suited for pale skin. There are no pink tones in this colour. My skin is yellow toned and it suits me perfectly.

This cream is so thick but also very light weight. It smells like chocolate but it's not overpowering. I find it really helps keep my skin smooth, supple and soft. I use it on all the areas prone to stretch marks. I've never had any reactions and it doesn't clog my skin at all. The finish is non sticky and it's easy to dress quickly afterwards. I use the lotion as well. I use this on all areas of the body. The lotion is just as good if you want something a little less thick and a bigger bottle that treats the whole body. This cream helps prevent some of the itching that is related to stretching skin. I find this a great pregnancy product for any expecting mum because it's luxurious to apply, smells delicious and keeps pesky dry/itchy skin away. Overall it's a wonderful product that I'd buy again and recommend to others.
