Usually I don't like using these type of stick concealers especially as they're usually too thick and are uncomfortable on the face. This Revlon one though is an exception. The texture is very creamy and extremely blendable. It is not overly thick but hides undereye darkness and spots quite well. It can look a little cakey on dry spots like blemishes but only if you use too much. Overall a great full coverage concealer.

Love love LOVE this product. This has very quickly become my favourite foundation to use.
I had people compliment me to tell me my skin has been looking great lately and if I had started doing something different. It has all come down to this one product.
It feels light but has the right amount of coverage. Not completely full coverage but it doesn't matter because who wants to have a caked face anyway. The texture was so creamy and left a very smooth surface. Looks great in photos too.
I found it did slide off a bit when I was sweating more than usual on hotter days but this was easily fixed with some primer and powder.
The glass packaging feels luxurious despite being quite bulky and not the most travel friendly. It does not look like a lot of product in there but you only need a very tiny amount for your whole face and neck.
And because you do have to dip your fingers into the products, I always make sure my hands are clean and sanitised before using it so the product doesn't spoil quickly.

Loved this remover. The bi-layer has always worked well and this was no exception. It removed just about all waterproof makeup at the end of the day and also works great on a q-tip to fix up minor mistakes during application.
On some occasions it did leave a slight film feeling but that was easily resolved with a face wash.
My only problem was that there was no stopper on the top/the opening was too large and being the clumsy person I am, I would always knock it over and lose a lot of the top layer. So in the end I ended up with a lot more of the lower aqueous layer and less of the oilier (not sure what it actually is since this is an oil free) one so it actually got less effective because of the imbalance.
Still, a great product and a definite repurchase. Will be extra careful next time.

This was as the name suggests a very gentle makeup remover but it just did not seem to remove everything. I would always find traces of makeup leftover when I go through with my toner and I could still feel some product build up on my eyes. It is nice because of its gentleness and doesn't leave the greasy feeling and did not irritate my eyes. But only great for very light makeup, anything more and you need something stronger.

I bought this half price at Chemist Warehouse a few months ago. I love it sooo much.
I'm really slack when it comes to using hand creams and my hands really show it. This was different because the formula was very quick to absorb and didn't leave any residue. This is why I didn't like other hand creams because my hands felt so sticky afterwards.
I was surprised when it came out of the tube as a light pink cream but it really does the job. I've now become addicted to putting this on throughout the day. Plus it smells great, very refreshing!

I have really long thick hair that tends to get oily really quickly. I finally jumped on the dry shampoo wagon and boy was I missing out.
I was a bit skeptical at first but it didn't seem to work that great but then I found out from a friend that I wasn't using it right. As people have already mentioned, make sure to really massage it in at first, this also gives your hair a little bit more of a lift. I haven't had the problem with residue even though I'm using a plastic brush.
My only issue is that it doesn't last long enough for me.It works up until about lunch time and my hair needs another spritz to get rid of that oiliness.
But overall, I love this product.

When I saw this included the Olay serum, I figured why not. So I bought this as a set with the concealer.
I have this in classic ivory. I love the feel of this foundation. I was a little worried because it looks a bit streaky at first because it goes on a little thick but then after it sets, it starts to look more powdery and smooth. It feels really nice throughout the day. I use this in winter because it is a little thick for hotter weather. A little product goes a long way with this one. One dip with the sponge would be enough for my whole face.
The one problem I had with this was when I used it on my nose. The skin there is a lot drier than the other parts of my face and this foundation emphasised the dry skin and you could see the cracks and flakey-ness. I thought the high coverage wouldn't do this, but unfortunately this has deterred me from using this on a regular basis.

I was sent "Pretty in Pink" from BH and to be honest I'd never really heard of the brand before, let alone think about trying their lipsticks. I'm more of a lip balm only kind of person.
At first this colour looked a bit dark, I was kind of scared to try it on. But the first application is quite sheer which is good because I can easily build up the intensity as I need.
Definitely a moisturising lipstick, it's so very creamy. I didn't find that it bled too much throughout the day and the colour seemed to last a decent amount of time. Reapplying throughout the day is a must though.
And for that price I'm definitely giving others a try. Thanks BH!

I was sent 2 of these from BH in "Party Shoes"(bright pink) and "Purple Pumps"
I was a bit skeptic at first thinking that such cheap polishes weren't going to look very nice nor last very long but I was proven wrong. The application is very nice, no streaks and the pigmentation is nice enough that you don't have to apply too many coats. Even with vigorous wear they lasted me about a week before the chipping was that noticeable.
I will definitely be hunting these down to try some other colours. Thanks BH!

I've always loved Palmer's moisturisers and my younger sister couldn't really use them because she's quite sensitive to scents. So I figured this would be perfect. It worked well as a moisturiser of course, but there was a weird smell to it. Not as strong as other scented ones but still not usable by my sister, which is a shame. I don't know whether it was because I got a bad bottle or something.
