This Remington hair curler was comfortable to use, and the pink was added bonus. The heat settings were easy to use and I found it created great voluminous curls as a 38mm tong while heating up fast with multiple heat settings. The ceramic tongs are infused with coconut and keratin micro conditioners which means that it reduces the frizz that comes along with excess heat exposure to your hair as well as smelling like you’ve stepped out of somewhere tropical. The curler was overall very easy to use, and made my curls last longer than usual.

I thought this was a really great starter retinol. The instructions say only put a couple of drops however I didnt feel like that was enough for the full face - but it was nice to see the brand have users use less than more. I started with twice a week application of this product and I did get a few breakouts here and there during that first week, but the weeks after that, it was fine. Not sure if i saw signs right away but it definitely is a long term consistency product. Smell was fine- nothing too strong, and consistency was great and easily blended into the skin. Find that after using this product and layering on moisturiser after works fine. Not a super strong retinol where I would need to have a base layer first then retinol and then something else on top. Great quality, affordable price and does the job.

I received the 100g version of this to try as part of the trial team. After application, skin feels nice and smooth almost immediately - feels similar to what a silicone based makeup primer feels on the skin. Definitely lives up to the claims of being sting free. I tried this on my eczema patches and dry palms and it maintained moisture for over 24 hours without worried about stinging. With the 100g version - it came in a tube however it took a lot of effort to get product out of the tube (good to see 200g is in tub). A little of the product does a long way, however be aware that it does leave a bit of an oily residue on your hands after application. overall a great product for dry skin and a huge plus that it includes cermides within it. Would recommend this product and would purchase this in the future.

The all in one cuticle oil definitely lives up to the name! I received this as part of a trial team review and have loved it since I started using it. I don’t buy cuticle oils but I definitely have felt like my cuticles are much more refreshed and softer just like after a good manicure. The oil has a bit of a vanilla scent to it which is nice and a little definitely goes a long way. It’s quick to apply and as simple as rubbing it in, and let it dry. I love having this next to my desk and putting it on before my hand cream just for that added touch. It’s a small bottle but it will last forever. Will purchase this and continue using it!

The only downside to this is that it needs to be kept upright as I found that mine leaked a little bit through the dropper everytime it was in a bag. Otherwise no other complaints!

Received as part of a trial team. I was the most skeptical about this product; and to be honest the blue color of the product really threw me off! I’ve tried this over quite a few nights and really enjoyed this. It applies as a very light shimmery blue, and very quickly it dries and it dries into a sheer silver sheen over the nails. The idea is to apply the night before and wash off the next morning which can be a hassle sometimes. With continued use, I felt like my nails have strengthened. The ingredients include pantheon and plant based keratin which is amazing for nails. Would continue using and purchase this product when it runs out. The only down side is that sometimes I forget I even applied this the previous night!

Received this as part of a trial team review. This is not typically the type of product I would normally go for, however it was definitely interesting! It came in a dropper bottle, it was on the thicker side of formulation with a faint smell I couldn’t put my finger on. On application, it wasn’t as grainy as I expected, and because of this, I don’t think it did too much. I had a bit of dry skin around my cuticles but they didn’t go away with use of this product. I think this might be better suited for those with a bit of a keratin buildup on the cuticles. It’s a great little nifty product to have in your handbag to give dry and full cuticles a refresh, however probably not something I would personally purchase as it wasn’t very effective.

I tried to like this shampoo over time with use, however I found it didn't match my preferences with shampoo. The smell is absolutely delicious with scent similar to creamy mango sorbet. The smell doesn't seem to linger after shower. Upon using this, I found I had to use a lot of product in order to get the lather and have the hair feel clean. Normally, I do double cleanse, but I felt like with this particular product, I had to even triple cleanse. The shampoo definitely nourished my hair more at the roots. I love that it is paraben and silicone free however I think the trade off for the time in the shower and amount of product used is not worth it - probably better shampoos on the market that does the same thing.

It's such a simple concept and does the job for some last minute blackhead removals. The packaging is simple - just remove strips and off you go! The most fun aspect of this is just looking at how many blackheads and oil gets pulled out from this however this is not the best way to maintain your blackhead situation in the long run. For the RRP, and the fact you only get 6 in the box - it's steep for what it is, however I keep a box of these in the bathroom for them emergency situations. There's a plastic-y smell to these strips but overall nothing too bothersome as you are only supposed to leave on your nose for about 10 mins or so.

Been struggling with eczema on my hands since COVID. This cream has done wonders to help my skin heal and create a temporary barrier over eczema patches while my skin heals underneath. A little goes a long way with this cream and it's such a life saver on your hands as it does seem to still maintain hydration on my skin even after hand washing. Not for use when skin is oozing, however it is amazing during the dryness phases especially during winter. The formula is slightly green cream but applies clear with a light ointment feel. No scent.
