I have quite long, very fine hair that usually has the bounce of a pancake. And have had for 54 years. So this range appealed to me, with the promise of healthy, bouncy hair. The shampoo (and matching conditioner) comes in a generous size, colourful, flip-top tube. They both look great in the shower recess and have a practical design. The Shampoo is delightfully scented, and I've found I don't need to use too much on my very long hair. It suds up easily, and didn't irritate my eyes when I accidentally had some suds land in them. It cleans thoroughly in a short period of time, leaving my hair & scalp looking and feeling healthy and happy. My hair definitely has more bounce. Used in conjunction with the matching conditioner, it is an excellent range for anyone with fine hair. Highly recommended.

I have quite long, very fine hair that usually has the bounce of a pancake. And have had for 54 years. So this new range appealed to me, with the promise of healthy, bouncy hair. The conditioner (and matching shampoo) comes in a generous size, colourful, flip-top tube. They both look great in the shower recess & are practical in design. Where this product differs from a traditional Conditioner is the formula. It is a clear gel, almost like a hair styling gel, but minus any stickiness. It has a subtle, very pleasant aroma that adds an extra delight to the senses. Usually when I use Conditioner I almost need half a tube & much patience (with other brands). I only wash my hair every 4 days or so, and in that time often wear it up, but it still can & does tangle too readily. Washing my hair requires a generous allocation of time, and lots of patience. Using this JF Conditioner gave me a very nice surprise. I found I needed to use a lot less product than usual, and that it works really well at detangling my long locks. It rinses out very easily, leaving me with hair that looks and feels in excellent overall condition. And my showers are definitely shorter than usual. Got to love a Conditioner that helps me be more water-wise! Compared to other conditioners I've tried before, this just works so much better! If you have fine hair you should give this whole range a go. You won't be disappointed.

Over the past year I've been predominantly using natural skincare, and of course I've included Skin products. Made in Australia, available in every pharmacy, and always an affordable price, this is a brand that always delivers great results. I managed to source a tube of this in a limited edition 250mls size, for the price of 125mls size. Bargain! I kept my big tube in the shower and used this 2 - 3 times a week. It lasted me through many months of regular use. The formula is a real delight to use. It is lovely and creamy, with a gorgeous herbal, natural aroma. The exfoliation action is non-abrasive, using micro particles of bamboo extract and walnut shell to gently, effectively exfoliate. I love using it, it never irritates my skin and afterwards my skin looks and feels softer & smoother. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting an affordable, all-natural exfoliator.

I have been using this serum with the matching moisturisers for the past 3 weeks. The serum comes boxed with details of ingredients, benefits & how to optimise using it. The serum is housed in a very elegant glass jar with a gold lid, & features a pump dispenser. It is a very generous 30mls size. Looks great on the dresser! The jar is see-through, which is a great idea. It lets you both see the product & how much you have left. The serum is a cream colour with subtle gold shimmer through it. It is much less fragranced than the matching moisturisers, though if you are sensitive to fragrance, it may not suit you. I love the texture of this serum. Pumping out 4 small dollops is enough to cover my face & neck areas. It feels really delightful on my skin. I do need to let it sink in properly for a couple of minutes before applying my moisturiser. I have been delighted with my skin from following this regime & recommend it to the 50+ age group - as long as you aren't sensitive to fragrance!

Thanks BH & L'Oreal for the opportunity to trial this range. I have been using the range for around 3 weeks. Targeted for those aged 50 - 70, I was wondering if the cream would be too rich for my combination skin, but found it suits my skin perfectly. It comes boxed with plenty of information about ingredients & how they work together. It does have many ingredients that are in the matching day cream. The cream is housed in a very elegant, heavy, navy blue jar with a gold lid. Both the day and night cream look very similar, with the word NIGHT clearly written on this jar. The moisturiser is quite strongly scented, which is the reason I deducted a star. I would suggest trying a tester, especially if you're averse to fragrance in your skincare. But that is the only negative I have with this cream. It looks thick in the jar, and is definitely richer than the day cream. But to my delight I have found that the cream isn't too rich for my combination skin. The cream feels absolutely delightful on my skin, leaving it healthy, hydrated and soft. I wake up with amazing skin, day after day. I very much recommend this to anyone 50+ who wants a high quality moisturiser for a very reasonable price.

Thanks BH & L'Oreal for the opportunity to trial this range. I have been using the range for around 3 weeks. Targeted for those aged 50 - 70, I was wondering if the cream would be too rich for my combination skin, but found it definitely wasn't. I feel the Day Cream with SPF15 is the best product in the range. It comes boxed with plenty of information about ingredients & how they work.together. The cream is housed in a very elegant, heavy, navy blue jar with a gold lid. Both the day and night cream look very similar. The moisturiser is quite strongly scented, which is the reason I deducted a star. I would suggest trying a tester, especially if you're averse to fragrance in your skincare. But that is the only negative I have with this cream. It looks thick in the jar, but is surprisingly lightweight - a little really goes the distance, I expect my jar will last 2 months or so - making this a great value product. I love that SPF15 is included, it means I can skip a step in my morning routine. The cream feels absolutely delightful on my skin, leaving it healthy, hydrated and soft. Such a divine texture! I very much recommend this to anyone 50+ who wants a high quality moisturiser for a very reasonable price.

I've tried many cloth face masks in recent years, and this one is the first I've tried from Garnier. I have fairly normal skin with an oily t-zone, so this version looked ideal for me I enjoyed most aspects of using the mask with one exception - compared to other brands I've loved using, this Garnier mask was a challenge to apply properly and gave sit properly on my face. I applied it, using the packet instructions, but still found I had issues. That though was the only negative. I loved the formula, the sheet was covered in a hydrating serum that my complexion lapped up. It felt very pleasant to use, and afterwards my skin ft and looked plumper & healthier. It wasn't too sticky & didn't irritate my skin either Overall, for the $5 pricetag, this is a very decent facemask. It certainly delivers as promised on the hydration, and left my skin looking and feeling much healthier. Recommended if you're after a cloth mask for a value price!

Thanks BH and Trilogy for the opportunity to trial this gorgeous serum. I'm in my early 50's and have combination skin that is sensitive across the t-zone Rosapene Radiance Serum comes boxed with details on the box describing ingredients and how to use the product for optimal results. The serum is perfectly packaged to keep the contents pristine, in a dark, glass bottle with a pump dispenser and it is a generous 30mls size Serum ingredients include Rosapene - a combination of Rosehip Oil and Cranberry, Antioxidants from Lycopene and Acai, Sea Algae and Aloe. A superb mix of skin-friendly ingredients The serum has a lovely, light texture and I find 3 small pumps is all I need to cover my face, neck and decolletage. The scent is divine, a true delight to the senses, it smells like a garden of beautifully scented roses I have been using this twice daily for the past 3 weeks and have noticed a definite, positive change in my complexion. I experience facial redness most days, but it's now vanished, as the soothing,natural ingredients have been very beneficial for my skin. My skin looks and feels beautifully moisturised, supple and healthy. Definitely has a glowing radiance too I would give this 10 stars if I could, it's that good. Do your skin a favour and buy this gorgeous product - your skin will be grateful you did. Very highly recommended.

Thanks BH and Garnier for the opportunity to trial this hair colour. I chose shade 3.23 Dark Quartz Brown, one of the new Sparkle Brown range, and was sent two boxes as I have quite long hair The hair colour comes boxed and contains a standard kit of gloves, colour, developer and conditioner. It is a permanent hair colour, designed to completely cover greys. The box features a photo of a model with the hair colour, so you have a good idea of what your hair will look like. The box is cleverly designed with a push out round section to stand the colourant bottle in while using it I found the colour mixed easily and was relatively drip-proof when I applied it. While it does contain Ammonia,it also has a pleasant,fruity type of scent that almost eliminates the Ammonia odour. The colour did not irritate my scalp in any way I left the colour on for 30 minutes and found it rinsed away easily. The included conditioner is rich, moisturising and smells delightful too. My hair felt very soft and healthy at this stage I've been truly delighted with the results, this is a colour that delivers everything it promises. My hair colour is rich, vibrant and youthful. All my greys are gone and replaced with shiny, healthy hair. Love it - I will definitely be buying this in the future, it's a superb product. .

I received this fantastic hair product as part of the Autumn Discovery Bag and have loved using it I Want Body Volume Spray is a unique product in that it combines a liquid spray formula with a powder to give hair that is full of life and body I have long, fine hair that can be as flat as a pancake if I don't use a volumising product. Usually I use a mousse, but not anymore - I Want Body will have me throwing my other products away This product is activated by a quick shake that combines the powder and liquid into a fine mist. Once combined, all I need to do is spray a few short shots at my roots and watch the magic happen. As a bonus, this spray smells incredible, I love how it makes my hair smell and feel. It instantly gives my hair more oomph and lots of shiny, healthy, non-sticky body. Absolutely everything I want and need in any hair styling product. This will definitely have a permanent place in my bathroom from now on.
