I liked the Packaging it stands out, i would of preferred the Primer in a pump Action bottle rather than in a Jar.
I found the texture a little thick for my liking however once applied i found the Primer did absorb into my skin quite well and it felt smooth and silky. It did cover my pores and wrinkles so i was pleased with that. On Australia Day it was quite Hot and noticed that the Primer worked very well and blended with my Foundation and lasted several hours.
I can not comment on the smell as i can't smell any fragrance at all, that doesn't bother me as i don't like strong smelly products anyway,.

I am very pleased with the Nivea Visage Daily Essentials Light Moisturizing Day Cream, which also offer SPF15 sun protection. I have been using this cream in conjunction with my daily skin care regime for the past two weeks. I like the packaging, with the signature Blue and White colours that stand out and ensure me it is a product from the Nivea range. It comes in a 50ml tube with a screw top lid. The fragrance is lovely yet very subtle scent, which made the cream a pleasure to apply. I only need to squeeze a minimal amount of product to provide my face and neck with a full coverage. I liked the lightweight but rich creamy texture and whilst it was quite thick I found it still instantly absorbed into my skin. After moisturising with the Nivea Visage Daily Essentials Light Moisturizing Day Cream, my skin feels soft, hydrated and instantly refreshed. This product is also enriched with the addition of essential Vitamins to encourage optimum skin health and maintain a beautiful fresh feel all day long. I found it was non-greasy on my skin and because of the sun protection factor, I felt confident that my skin was going to stay protected from the suns damaging rays to help prevent future skin damage and signs of ageing I would recommend the Nivea Visage Daily Essentials Light Moisturizing Day Cream for all Skin Types and all age Groups and I think it would be especially ideal for the cooler months when skin needs extra hydration without getting shiny. I would definitely buy this product myself and shall continue using it as a daily step in my skin care routine. Thank you to Beauty Heaven for the opportunity to trial another great product from Nivea

I have been using the Palmers Butter Cocoa Skin Therapy Oil as a part of my beauty regime for the past two weeks, and because it's my first ever experience of a body oil, initially I didn't know what to expect. The product is presented in a clear 60ml bottle featuring a flip-top lid, which makes it simple to handle, however, you should be cautious when dispersing the oil, because as I soon discovered, quite a lot of product come out with the initial squeeze. The formulation is of an even consistency, extremely lightweight and non-greasy, which I found to be pleasant when applied to my skin. I love the fragrance of the oil, which imparts a light, delicate rosehip scent that I don't feel is at all overbearing The Skin Therapy Oil is infused with Vitamin E, an added bonus, because it is beneficial for improving the appearance of scars, stretch marks, dry skin and even reduces fine lines and wrinkles. It is designed to be used on your face as well as your body, so it's the perfect all-rounder. Another suggested use for the oil, is to squirt a small amount into your bath water, hence making it a fantastic deep moisturising skin treatment or as an instant 'pick-me-up' to stimulate the senses, during a relaxing pampering session, to unwind after a long, exhausting day I only needed to disperse a few drops of the oil, which was an adequate amount for my whole face and neck area. When applied to my skin, I noticed the oil absorbed instantly, leaving no oily residue and it instantly softened and smoothed my skin while providing superior moisturisation. I tried massaging a few drops of the oil onto some of my stubborn stretch marks, as I personally have quite a few (shh) lol. Although, considering I have only been applying the treatment for two weeks, I can only claim that I have noticed just a slight difference in the appearance of the stretch marks. However, the skin in that region feels much softer and some of my existing skin damage has shown signs of improvement, now appearing healthier. I understand though, that you can't expect to achieve ultimate results, such as distinct changes to stubborn stretch marks, from any skin care product, in such a short period of time. Personally, I would have preferred a longer trial period, to determine if I would have experienced greater results with more obvious improvements, if I were able to continue using it for at least three months Thank You to Beauty Heaven for the opportunity to trial this product.

I have been using the Head and Shoulders Conditioner for almost two weeks now and have had absolutely, positive results.
After washing my hair with the Head and shoulder shampoo in the same range, I then follow it up with the Conditioner.
The Head and Shoulders Conditioner comes in a flip top lid plastic bottle which is very easy to use. While the Shampoo bottle sits up the normal way, the Conditioner Bottle reverses to sit upside down. I assume the purpose of this is to stop people getting confused and mixing up the Shampoo with the Conditioner. Reversing the bottle is ideal to make the bottles easily identified, even though the Conditioner bottle also has the word 'Conditioner” printed in large letters, which I also find to be very helpful The texture of the Conditioner, like the Shampoo, has a thick consistency, but is also rich and creamy. I do not need to use very much though as I have short wavy hair and find that just a few squirts is sufficient to distribute right through from my scalp to the lengths. The conditioner rinses out with ease, after which I then let my hair dry naturally. It is left feeling clean, moisturised, extremely soft and tangle free. After the duration of just a few weeks of using these products I have noticed that I now have way less dandruff and my scalp feels less itchy, scaly and irritable; I am virtually dandruff-free :) I would highly recommend using both the Head and Shoulders Shampoo and Conditioner in unison as they definitely go hand and hand with each other and when used as a pair they provide the most effective results. This range would be ideal for anyone, especially if you suffer from a dry, itchy, scaly scalp and often find yourself suffering from dandruff. I would suggest using both products for at least a month to achieve proper results and to maintain a healthy scalp I did not incur any reactions before, during or after using the Head and Shoulder Conditioner. I would like to offer a big thank you to the team at Beauty Heaven for giving me the opportunity to this range and experience the beneficial results for myself. I am extremely impressed with the outcome and really happy with the overall condition of my hair and scalp. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this range again, especially considering it is readily available and is affordable priced.

I am a sufferer of dandruff and often experience an itchy, scaly scalp from time to time as well. However, I could possibly be exacerbating the situation because I tend to use different brands of shampoos and conditioners. I was pleased to receive the Head and Shoulder Shampoo and Conditioner to trial c/o Beauty Heaven. Thank You, I am really looking forward to it as, fortunately, I am suffering from dandruff at present so it's a good opportunity for me to trial both products and discover the results for myself. The packaging is sleek and simple. Both bottles come with a flip top lid, which is very easy to use, but remember once you have applied the shampoo make sure to replace the lid properly so that there is no possibility of wastage, just in case the bottle tips over.
I have been washing my hair with this Shampoo for a period of almost two weeks now using it in conjunction with the Conditioner in the same range. The texture of the shampoo is of a thick consistency and has a lovely delicate fragrance to it. I find that the shampoo froths up to a lovely, rich lather whilst massaging the shampoo through my scalp and lengths. It feels great and I can feel that my scalp and hair receiving gentle treatment while still achieving a thorough cleanse. The shampoo has definitely helped the reduction of dandruff and my scalp does not feel as dry and scaly after frequent use of this Shampoo. I have also noticed that the irritating itch I often experienced has also subsided while I have been using Head and Shoulders. After washing and drying my hair, I can now run my fingers through my locks and I don't notice any dandruff shedding from my scalp. I did not ever realise that I actually had much dandruff in the first place, until having seen how much of an improvement this Head and Shoulders range has made, so this product has really worked wonders for me I did not incur any reactions before, during or after using the Head and Shoulder Shampoo. I highly recommend using both products if you are suffering from dandruff, itchiness and dryness as they really compliment each other and work well as a team. I don't think that using just one or the other will give such an effective result Overall I am really impressed with this shampoo and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone who suffers from pesky, annoying dandruff or a dry, flaky, irritable scalp. I personally wouldn't hesitate to buy these products again because not only are they effective they are also such good value for money, and are available at most outlets at a price I can afford.

I received the Elizabeth Arden Prevage Day Ultra Protection Anti-Aging Moisturizer with Sunscreens along with the serum in this range thanks to the generosity of Beauty Heaven! Thank you, I was extremely excited to put this product to the test as I had previously tried a sample of the serum and was impressed with the experience and looking forward to discovering the benefits of this highly acclaimed skin care line. This product is the ultimate multi-tasker combining a rich nourishing moisturiser, optimal sun protection and powerful ingredients, which help to target the signs of ageing. I performed a patch test on my arm for three days prior to commencing the first application of this moisturiser to my face, as I also did with the serum. An Elizabeth Arden consultant informed me that this step always be carried out to avoid developing a reaction to the powerful Idebenone antioxidant, which has the possibility of causing irritation to some skin types. Fortunately, I didn't suffer any reactions so continued on with my trial The texture of the moisturiser was light and creamy and left no white cast on my face, which is commonly associated with many sunscreens. Instead, it rapidly absorbs without any greasy remnants or the heavyweight type of feel, typical of SPF products. It features a gentle, non-overpowering scent with a delicate fragrance that I easily prefer to the common sunscreen smells. It works to leave my skin sufficiently hydrated and nourished, keeping the moisture locked in so that my skin doesn't dry out during the course of the day. In the short period that I have been using this moisturiser in alliance with the matching serum, I have already noticed a significant improvement in the condition of my skin. I do fully understand that if I expect to see dramatic results, I will need to use these products religiously for at least three months, however, I am extremely happy with the results I have already achieved, giving me great expectations that my skin health will continue to correct over the upcoming months. For now though, I have started noticing that the texture of my skin has clarified and feels so much softer and smoother to touch. It is far more resilient, with a plumping, firming effect that is disguising the appearance of sagging skin along with fine lines and wrinkles. My mature skin was evidently displaying the visible signs of ageing in recent years with noticeable wrinkles appearing around my eye contour, on my forehead, around my mouth as well as on my neck and décolleté. These lines have slightly softened in appearance, becoming far less severe in my opinion My skin tone, which always suffers from slight redness and flushing around my inner cheek area, has staged a definite improvement of late, with the redness slightly decreasing giving me hope of achieving a more uniform complexion. I am now optimistic that over a longer period, the colour of my skin will even out so much more and diminish that redness altogether, as it is one of my most annoying skin concerns that I have found little to no success treating in the past.

I have been trialling the Advanced Night Repair serum for almost a month now, and would like to thank BH for this opportunity.
The Estee Lauder Night repair serum comes in a bottle with a dropper style applicator, which is easy to apply and prevents any contamination. You can apply the serum during the day underneath your moisturizer, or at night after cleansing. I like to use it at nighttime after cleansing my face. I apply a little extra on my cheeks and around the eye area as I have noticeable fine lines on these parts of my face.
The serum has a thin consistency and the scent is quite light and fresh but does vanish quickly. Upon my first application, I felt that the serum was a little sticky, however it did absorb into my skin almost instantly. After using the serum my skin is left feeling more rested, silky, smooth and extremely healthy looking.
I have also noticed that it calmed the red flush on my cheeks and nose, which is a problem I have been dealing with for quite some time.
The serum has proven beneficial in softening my laugh lines while it has also noticeable plumed the delicate skin around my eyes. An added bonus is that you do not need too much to cover your whole face, which means this bottle will last me a long time, proving it very economical Overall, my wrinkles have not disappeared, however I am happy with this serum, as it has helped my skin to look soft and subtle as well as highly rejuvenated.
I did not suffer from any irritations or breakouts while trialling the serum, so I believe it would be suitable for sensitive skin. I would recommend the Night Repair Serum to anyone who is noticing the first signs of ageing. I am happy to say that this is definitely one of the best serums that I have had the pleasure of trying.
