I loved the fact that this had 22% zinc for the sun protection and healing benefits. I enjoyed the texture going on as it was a thicker consistency and felt like it was wrapping my skin up in its goodness. I did however find it quite difficult to rub in and found it left a white cast. If I tried to rub it in too much it started to pill and rub off. I tried applying less and patting it onto my skin but that didn't seem to help with the white cast. I do love that it's Australian made and dies it's best to leave out the nasties. It has added ingredients such as Niacinamide and Kakadu plum which is good if you have oily skin or are looking to add a sunscreen to your brightening regime. Hopefully they can tweak the formulation a bit to address the white cast residue.

I was a bit hesitant with this one. I'm not sure who the target market is, possibly people in a hurry? The packaging is simple and basic, does exactly what it needs to. Easy to open with a twist off lid which reveals a wet sponge with a hole in it. Lightly pressing on the sponge reveals the bottle is full of nail polish remover, be careful as it spills and squirts easily. I played around with a few ways of inserting my finger to avoid touching skin as much as possible but found it quite impossible to do. This is a huge downside for me as repeated usage will most certainly dry out the skin and possibly cause allergies. In terms of effectiveness, I found it very messy with the nail polish getting smeared all over the inside of the sponge and then onto the skin, another big no for me. Overall, I like the idea but it's just not hitting the market and causes more issues than it solves. I will probably squeeze out the sponge and use the remover with traditional cotton wool to remove my polish in future.

Revitanail has king been my go too base coat when doing mainicures with normal polish. It protects the nails, fills any ridges and apparently helps strengthen the nails. For the purpose of this trial I didn't use it with polish and just applied 2 coats onto my natural nails on the initial application and one coat per day for five days. On day three they were starting to chip and look messy so I removed a couple and repainted those ones. The polish is very easy to use, the brush was the perfect size and held a good amount of product allowing for an easy application. I didn't notice any major difference after I removed the treatment but I did enjoy how my nails looked while it's on. I will continue to use it on my natural nails in between manicures and as a base when doing a colour.

Love the simple packaging with this! Less is definitely more these days. The product fit perfectly in the recyclable cardboard box but was still well protected. All necessary information is clearly listed on the box. The moisturiser itself comes in a glass jar with a twist off lid. There is a safety seal inside which is good in this world of covid however I did find it quite difficult to remove. Not a problem once it was off though as I just left it off. There is a very faint, delicate scent that I could not identify but was not unpleasant. The product was an unusual consistency - a mix between a gel and a cream. It was nice and cooling down n application and absorbed super fast. Almost too fast as after a couple of minutes it didn't feel like anything had been applied. I didn't feel any of the benefits it claimed. After a few minutes my skin became itchy and had a slight burn. There was no redness or inflammation so I decided to leave the product on to allow me to give an honest review. After a few uses I wasn't noticing and benefits at all and was still getting the irritation so I discontinued using it. I think this moisturiser would be better suited to dehydrated skin rather than dry skin as it didn't seem to provide any nourishment at all.

Packaging is a simple red recyclable cardboard box, a bit excessive in size but is effective at protecting the product inside. It clearly states who the product is suitable for and list the benefits which allows you to make an informed decision before purchasing. The bottle inside is a dark amber bottle to protect the ingredients stability. It comes with a dropper applicator to allow ease of product dispensing without wastage. It is a very lightweight serum that is absorbed quickly into the skin leaving it feeling hydrated, soft and smooth. With ongoing use I found the skin stayed smooth for longer without the need to exfoliate as much. The serum has a beautiful scent of lime pearl and prickly pear and is so refreshing, perfect as part of a wake-up routine. It is a certified natural cosmetic which is a selling point to those wishing to avoid lab produced ingredients. I was a bit disappointed that it did not recommend the use of an SPF in the instructions as all daily AHAs should to avoid the risk of burning.

I was surprised when I first received this product as the box it arrived in was quite large, especially for an eye cream. I dislike excess packaging and this definitely had that. A large box with an insert to stop the small product from moving around. I will say at least it was recyclable cardboard do not a total waste. The packaging was aesthetically pleasing, simple and easily read with the benefits clearly listed. The packaging for the actual eye cream is in a faux syringe type bottle which comes with a locking mechanism which is great if you are travelling or keep your products in a cosmetics bag. It was easy to open with a simple pull off plastic lid. That's where the positives of the packaging end. As it's an air lock pump I pressed the button on the base to push the cream up and out however I did not expect it to shoot out so it ended up on the sink. I had hoped it was a once off but unfortunately it happened with almost every use. This wastes product and makes it hard to dispense the correct amount of product. The cream itself is quite a thick creamy consistency which I did enjoy. There was no discernible scent which is good for an eye product to avoid irritation. It left the delicate skin around the eyes feeling hydrated and was a good base for makeup. So far I haven't really seen much difference in the skin which is disappointing for the price tag. I would prefer if they spent more money on the formulation and less on fancy packaging.

First impressions- love the simple, unisex packaging which is recyclable cardboard and packaged in a way that protects the product inside. The bottle itself is a dark amber glass bottle to protect the integrity of the ingredients. It comes with a dropper lid for ease of dispensing the oil without wastage. The oil itself is very light and easily absorbed without leaving you looking or feeling greasy meaning it's perfectly suited to both day and night usage. My skin was quite dehydrated when I started using it and it drank it up and left it feeling much softer. I did get a bit of itching after a few minutes but it dissipated quickly and was likely due to the dehydration already present. The scent of the oil is very pleasant, I can only presume it is the prickly pear. I am a huge fan bakuchiol for its retinol like benefits without the irritation so that was a huge plus for me. Overall, I did notice a difference in my skin after using this oil and will likely continue to use it to see the cumulative results. It was more hydrated, nourished and softer so I would love to see if it can live up to brightening and anti ageing claims it makes.

First impressions of this product is that the packaging is very pretty and convenient. It is quiet a small container so fits in any purse or even your pocket. It was sealed in its packaging which is nice in the current climate. It was very easy to opened by peeling away the seal and popping off the cap. It has a simple twist up mechanism that allows you to dispense as much as you like however I discovered you cannot simply reverse twist to retract the product back in so I had to twist it and push it back down which was a bit disappointing. I tried the shade 'Peony' which is a very delicate, natural, barely there colour. Unlike others I didn't find it very shimmery at all which I was happy about. It has a very faint gold shimmer which is not very obvious at first glance. The peppermint is strong! It immediately takes over your senses. I am a peppermint fan so it was not a problem for me but may be too much for those with sensitive noses or those who dislike essential oils or peppermint. It leaves a bit of a tingling sensation on the lips similar to the sensation of a lip plumper but without the plumping. My immediate thought was that it felt nice and smooth on my lips but unfortunately that feeling didn't last very long. It dries in pretty quickly so needed to be reapplied often. I know it is marketed as 100% natural origin which may attract people with sensitive skin but I believe this is not the product for them as the strong peppermint may cause issues on a reactive skin. Overall I enjoyed using the product and may purchase again but it's not at the top of my list.

So I've read everyone else's reviews and come to the conclusion that maybe it's me that's wrong and not the product! The packaging was good, it was clear to see what it was, what it was for and what colour was inside. It was easy to open the box. The tube inside resembles a mascara tube but the applicator is like a plastic brush more than a mascara wand. The design of the tube means that it won't allow too much product out which is always handy! I brushed my hair and applied it to the most obvious sprinkles of tinsel (yes my grey hairs are my tinsel). It immediately looked wet and slicked back. I didn't have 5 minutes to wait for it to dry so I got my hair dryer out to dry it. It still took a couple of minutes to dry. I then brushed it out again and tied it back. I'm not sure if I didn't use enough product or if my grey hairs are extra stubborn but you could still see them shining through. My biggest issue was, although it blended really well with my natural colour, you could see where I applied it. It looked greasy and a bit strange. Overall it's not really a product that works for me but as I said, others have said different so it may help to read a few reviews before making a decision.

So I'm admittedly a fuss pot when it comes to skin care. I LOVE trying new products but often find myself feeling underwhelmed by the results. Knowing this I went in to this trial slightly skeptical. I was looking forward to trying it but have never been impressed by store bought skin care (as appose to salon bought). When I received it the girly shallow part of me was won over by the very pretty packaging. The gorgeous box was pinky purple and white with gold accents and very easy to open and best of all, recyclable. The bottle inside the box was equally as pretty, a pink glass bottle with rose gold and a spray pump. I was also impressed by the generous size of the bottle. I washed my face with my normal cleanser then spritzed the mist straight onto my face. My first impression? Oh my gosh that smells amazing!!! It is Sweet Violet and Grapefruit. It is enough to have you loving the smell and wanting more but subtle enough that it's not a sickening smell. It was so nice I caught my 9 year old spritzing her clothes with it. The mist itself felt amazing. It was instantly soothing and cooling and my skin felt so much more hydrated after using it. During the day I spritzed it over my makeup and loved the dewy look it gave my foundation. I felt instantly refreshed. With lots of plant extracts the ingredients are much better than a lot of hydrating lists available currently. This is definitely one to add to your must have list. I will definitely be buying more
