For reference, I have sensitive/redness and I'm always a bit cautious trying new serum because of this. I also have dry skin, so it's often quite difficult to find something that works with all my skin difficulties. Firstly, I really like that it's a pump as that's my preferred bottle type instead of a jar, which always gets contaminated. Secondly, I find the bottle colours ease to spot on the shelf which, I like. Thirdly, the product itself I have found it's pretty good, I think it's a bit hard to see in a short time frame how good it is overall for my complexion. I'll have to give an update after using it for longer. Overall, finding it pretty good for my sensitive skin (no breakouts yet), and does provide hydration.

For reference, I have shoulder length fine hair and in the winter months I will blow dry it, rather than letting it air dry, so it was a perfect time to trial this item. I really like the spray bottle and the bright pink makes it easy to spot on my shelf in the morning. I found it did deliver on it's promises of smooth, glossy shine and lasting smoothness, which is hard as I have super fine hair that gets easily tangled. Price point is pretty good, as the product will last a long time, which is great. Overall, happy with the product as it provides me humidity control without looking too greasy, like many hair sprays/oils do.

I am super time poor, so I am often quite forgetful with applying night cream, but while I've been on this trial I've been diligently applying every night, so I could see the efficacy o the item. I really like the ingredients list, which includes ceramides and Tasmanian Sea Kelp extract, which sounds amazing. The description says it delivers intensive boost of hydration and skin plumping goodness while you sleep, and I have to say my skin has been feeling more moisturised while using it, which is great as the cooler winter air is upon us. My only gripe is the scent is a bit strong for me. I much prefer a night cream to be entirely unscented. Also I find these types of jars easy to contaminate and much prefer a pump. Overall, I would recommend.

I'm not a big lash wearer, I think in my life I've worn lashes about 5 times, so I am definitely a novice at applying them and a novice at wearing them. I was pleasantly surprised with how easy these lashes were to apply, and how they instantly gave me a little glam pop, which is great for a Mum with a toddler (ease and speed), as I'm definitely time poor with beauty items these days. Price point is very reasonable and I think even better as it appears can re-use these up to 15 times rather than wearing and tossing like other brands. I just trimmed them a tiny bit but they nearly fit without any trimming, which was great. Overall, super pleased with this item and I would recommend. Winner for me!

I received the colour "knee high" and it is a such a beautiful rose/neutral style colour. I really love how easily it glides on and it does last quite well, I wouldn't say it lasts up to 12 hrs, conservatively lasts up to 6 hrs approximately. Price point is usual Maybelline prices, which is great. I love the packaging, it's quite luxe looking and unique. I love how nice it looks and how bold it looks. It does a pretty good not transferring as well. Overall, super happy with the lip tint and I would be keen to try other colours.

I was on this trial to test out the micro-sculpting cream, which is designed to give visibly younger looking skin for eyes, jaw line and neck. For reference, I'm 37 and starting to show some fine lines, but not necessarily on the jaw line or neck so I was paying most attention to my laugh lines/eyes area while using this item. In addition, the other claim is that it's advanced to regenerate skin cells and help the hardest to treat areas feel firmer and lifted. I didn't find any results for these claims. However, my skin did seem more moisturised/bouncy.

Received this item from BH from the Best in Beauty Event to trial. I wasn't overly keen to try this item as I don't think it's necessary to have an intimate wash lotion. Water is the best/only thing we should be using so we don't mess with our natural pH and I'm weary about using lactic acid which, sounds very strong for your intimate areas. I didn't find it irritating and I liked the bottle shape/type. However, I won't be continuing to use/wouldn't consider this a necessary item in our household.

Received this item from BH from the Best in Beauty Event to trial. My favourite part of this straight and curl styler is the 5 temperature setting as I try not to use such high temperatures on my hair so I do prefer a lower temperature. In particular, 150 is what I try to utilise. The second feature I like is the 20 second heat up which, is super fast and good for Mum's on the go / aka me. Thirdly, the shutting off after 60 minutes, as I'm always paranoid I'm going to forget to turn off my hair tools. Price point is good and it's great it has a 3 year warranty. Now, onto the styling itself, I found it worked really well for straightening. I haven't tried the curling feature as my hair I recently cut and there's no way I can do curls right now. So, I'll have to try that feature once my hair grows back.

Received this item from BH from the Best in Beauty Event to trial. I have a different hairdryer from Remington that I've been using for years, so I did a mental comparison between this new one versus my older model. I have to say, I prefer my older model. The reason for this is the filter is removable, it's a bit bigger of a model but weight wise this one is still a lot for how small it is. I didn't find this one dried my hair 25% faster. It seemed to be quite average at its drying speed I did like the 8 heat and speed combinations, which is my favourite feature of the hairdryer. I didn't find the cord quite long enough as well. Overall, I'll keep using it but wouldn't recommend at that price point. I do find it an average hair dryer, so should be a bit cheaper in price.

Received this item from BH from the Best in Beauty Event to trial. For reference, my hair type is fine/coloured and postpartum, so I've been losing some hair on a daily basis, which is quite stressful. The description advises, "Enriched with silk proteins and algae extract, it conditions dehydrated hair for more manageable and silky-smooth results." I didn't find that the results resulted in any of this, I found it just left my hair too shiny, which is what usually happens when I use a serum. I don't think my hair type is good for serums as my hair is too fine to have that much product in it. I also don't have any frizz so it's also probably why I don't need this item. Overall, I wouldn't recommend for those who have super fine hair. But I'll use it when I am using a hot hair tool, so I have heat protection.
