Thankfully I received the Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Cream as part of the BH trial team. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoy using this product. It has the most soft, smooth, silky texture and feels so luxurious on the delicate skin of the eye area. A small amount of product goes a long way and it glides on beautifully. The smell I found pleasant and the container is what I would expect of a high end Estée Lauder product. I didn’t notice a drastic improvement in the appearance of fine lines around my eyes, however I have only been using this product for a couple of weeks. The best feature of the cream is its ability to hydrate! I look forward to using this lightweight and nourishing cream every night. The Advanced Night Repair is one of the best eye creams I have used and I would recommend this product for anyone wanting to treat the eyes!

The Loreal Pure Clay mask which consisted of “3 clays plus eucalyptus” for purifying and mattifying was great! I received this mask as part of the trial team and was pleasantly surprised by the results. A skin tester patch was provided to determine your skin type – I was oily in all areas, being T-zone, cheek and chin. Therefore, I was best suited to this mask which is targeted at oily skin types. The green coloured mask is a smooth creamy consistency with a delightful fresh scent. It is easy to apply with limited mess as you can remove the lid from the glass jar, place mask, wash hands and replace lid. I found of the 3 new Loreal masks that this one felt an intense tingling on my skin for the first few minutes (almost like a glycolic acid peel feel). Maybe patch test first if you have sensitive skin. I left the mask for about 15 minutes to dry and felt an immediate softness to my skin following removal. I used this product about 3 times per week and thought it was a great addition to my cleansing routine. I was really impressed by this product. It is not something I would usually purchase; however this is one of the better masks I’ve tried and I will continue to use this product. It is reasonably priced with great results. If you have combination skin type you can also tailor the 3 different masks in the range for different areas of the face. Overall impressed!

The Loreal Pure Clay Mask which consisted of “3 clays plus red algae” definitely exfoliates and smooths as the product states. This mask can be used for all skin types and is particularly good if you like exfoliating products as there is a coarse component of this mask, unlike the other masks in the Loreal range which are smooth in consistency. I received this mask as part of the trial team and was pleasantly surprised by the results. A skin tester patch was provided to determine your skin type. My skin type is oily, however I found this mask good for the dull areas of my skin and I found that I could freshen up and smoothen my skin using this mask once a week. You can use this up to 3 times per week if required, however I used the eucalyptus mask in combination with this red algae mask for the best results. The product is cleanly packaged and easy to use with little mess. The mask is a smooth consistency with exfoliating particles. I left the mask for about 15 minutes to dry and on removal you can really exfoliate your skin by massaging the exfoliating particles gently over the face. My skin felt an immediate softness following the masks removal The range of Loreal masks is also good for combination skin types as you can tailor the 3 different masks in the range for different areas of the face i.e. multi-masking! Overall I loved the range of Loreal masks as they cater to all skin types, and although this wouldn’t have been a product I would usually buy, I am now converted and will keep using this as part of my skin cleansing routine.

The Loreal Pure Clay mask which consisted of “3 clays plus charcoal” is a staple for normal skin types. This mask can really be used by all skin types and is aimed at “detoxifying and brightening”. I received this mask as part of the trial team and found this a good all-rounder facial mask. Loreal provided skin test patches to determine your skin type. My skin is classified as very oily and I found the Green Loreal Clay with Charcoal beneficial for my oily skin. The black coloured mask is a smooth creamy consistency and smells great. It is easy to apply with limited mess as you can remove the lid from the glass jar, place mask, wash hands and replace lid. After leaving the mask on for 15 minutes to dry you can see the definition around your pores. This mask felt really nice on the face and my skin felt smooth and bright following removal. I used this mask 3 times per week and think it was a great addition to my standard cleansing routine. I have been very impressed by the new range of Loreal masks. They aren’t a product I would usually buy, however I think the results have been great and I will continue to use this product. The range is also good for combination skin types as you can tailor the 3 different masks in the range for different areas of the face.

The Pantene Sheer Volume Conditioner is a great adjunct to the Sheer Volume Shampoo. While the shampoo gives a fantastic overall clean, this conditioner really leaves your hair feeing silky smooth. I tend to get oily roots and dry ends and found that this conditioner was great at hydrating and softening my dry ends. My hair was less knotty! I would repurchase this product for the hydration alone. The conditioner is a creamy consistency and has a strong sweet smell, much like the shampoo. The smell does linger and keeps your hair smelling fresh. The packaging and value for money is great. I must say I didn't notice an increase in my hairs volume however I feel this is a great all round conditioner and I would use this product again.

This is a great all round shampoo. It has a very strong sweet smell which does linger to keep your hair smelling great. The clear gel is thick in consistency but LATHERS REALLY WELL. This was great for me because I have thick hair a small amount of the product was all I needed. This is actually the number one reason I would buy this product. I do find I need to use a lot of product in my hair with some of the other shampoo brands. This shampoo has nice clean packaging and is great value for money The conditioner worked so well in conjunction with the shampoo. I also get dry ends and knotty hair and I definitely noticed that my hair felt softer after using the shampoo and conditioner. I have quite thick hair and tend to find it will become flat at the roots. I must say I didn't notice a great increase in my hairs volume. Overall, I loved this shampoo more for the fact that it lathers really well to ensure a really great clean and leaves your hair feeling soft. I couldn't notice an increase in volume, however this is one of the better shampoos I have used for everyday cleaning.

I have been using this cleanser for the last week and am still torn as to how effective it has been. I have extremely oily skin in the T-zone and get blemishes in this area also. As I am using moisturiser that targets acne I can't be sure that it is solely the neutrogena acne wash that has done the trick. However, I really liked the cleanser - it lathered easily, had a nice neutral smell and seemed to clear up a bit of the excess oil on my face. I am going to stick with this product for a few more weeks as my skin is looking a bit clearer in the time period i've used it far.

I recieved this hand creme as a sample from Burt's Bees and I must say that I find it very softening and good for my cuticles. I am not a big fan of the smell (cherry/medicine smell) but once applied I do agree that the smell fades considerably. It is fairly greasy but at the same time does a good job at moisturising dry hands. I also love all of the packaging of Burt's Bees products and think that the jar is really cute! Overall I highly rate this hand cream!!

Having oily skin I decided to use this product as I don't like the greasy feel of most sunscreens. I found that this sunscreen applied well but it tended to rub off my skin fairly easily. I've tried better.

I always use nivea as it applies well and stops you from getting burnt. It is also effective to use when swimming and lasts for a good couple of hours!!
