This is an excellent choice for skincare lovers who are looking for a retinol product that won't break the bank but will deliver results. The packaging feels really luxurious, while remaining faithful to Neutrogena's recognisable colouring and packaging. The cream itself is a lovely light consistency that spreads evenly across the skin and absorbs well. it has a light relatively unnoticeable fragrance for those that would prefer no smell. After using this product for several weeks, I'm sad to sad I still have some fine lines and wrinkles, I guess there's no avoiding aging, however on the plus side, they do seem to have softened, and I do feel that my skin has a lovely glow to it. Like all retinol products, you really do need to give this cream a decent amount of time to see lasting results, however after several weeks, it does seem like this little pot of goodness may deliver what I'm looking for, and I don't need to break the bank to get them.

My hair was fine to begin with but as I am getting older, my hair is also showing signs of age, so there’s not much there and it’s quite brittle as well. This has really impacted my self esteem and so I’m really open to try anything that will contribute to soft shiny and healthy looking hair and also contribute to better hair integrity. As this is for older hair I have had high hopes, however I don’t find it gives a lot of moisture and haven’t noticed a huge difference to my hairs health. I’m sure it isn’t hurting but the wow I was hoping for remains illusive.

I have the super thin brittle hair that no person ever wanted and so I am forever on the lookout for products that will help it to look full and healthy. I’ve watched all the tiktoks and tried all the fads with very little success, hair oiling, rosemary water, protective hairstyles, you name it. Therefore I now want products that will give my hair softness and shine. This hair mask helps with this incredibly. It has a delicious smell and my hair is beautifully silky after using. If you are looking for a hair mask that works, give this one a try.

I have wavy hair and I hoped that this would really help to give me lovely lustrous wave. I followed the directions and placed in my hair as directed however I unfortunately ended up with stringy crunchy hair and my waves were not the fabulous I was hoping for. On the other hand, my daughter has some gorgeous curls so I thought I would give this product another test run on her hair. Again, we followed the directions and placed in her hair. The result was lovely, clearly defined curls that she was loving herself sick over. I highly recommend this product for the curly girls, but its probably not what the wavy girls are looking for unless you like a stiff crunchy head,

I have naturally wavy hair and with a little bit of work and a few recents products can usually get myself a lovely result. I had high hopes for this little green bottle but unfortunately it didn’t deliver as well as I had hoped for. Despite following the directions, because I love a rule or two this left my hair looking stringy and crunchy. The Lucious waves I had hoped for did not appear. I did however also try this on my daughter’s much curlier hair with a better result. I think this is a product that you really have to get used too to get it to work.

To be succinct, I absolutely love this mascara. I had heard the hype and was curious to find out what the fuss was about, so I hot footed it down to a priceline sale and spent my pennies on this little black tube. It did not disappoint. My eyelashes appeared long and wispy with very minimal effort. The formula went on smoothly and praise be did not smudge. This little tube is fast becoming one of my "cant live without" mascara's. I'm too lazy to wear falsies so I'm looking for the holy grail. I have to say, for girlies on a budget, this one is close to being it.

I bought this recently when I was out of mascara and noticed this was on sale. I'm partial to a cleaner formula because there is some part of my brain that hopes that it is making a difference to something somewhere. I love mascara, I prefer not to leave the house without it on and as someone with small features am always looking for the biggest bang for my not so many bucks. Unfortunately this is not it. It works fine but it hasn't blown me away. I'm not going to recommend it to anyone anytime soon and Its super smudgy which is a shame because the panda bear look really doesn't suit me, especially when dark circles are already a problem for me. Ill use it up because I hate to waste and I'm broke but I certainly wont be buying this again.

I have fine thin hair and have tried many products on the market to try and get some thickness to my hair. As I am getting older this is becoming a bigger battle and my desperation knows no boundaries! I didn't have very high hopes for this product, but I was prepared to give it a shot nonetheless. The packaging is lovely, the bottle is quite heavy with a nice long pipette. The instructions read to use four full pipettes, I did find that this was tricky as I could never quite manage to get a full pipette so I needed to estimate the amount I was using. It is also quite watery so I needed to be careful with the placement of the product so that I did not waste it. I didn't think that this was making too much difference however for the first time in forever I had people commenting on my hair, nothing too outrageous however my hair is not my best quality and it rarely gets a comment so for me this was definitely an indicator that this serum might actually be making a difference. I am prepared to keep on using it to see if the improvements continue however for now I think this product is definitely worth trying if you are looking to improve your hair.

I was really excited to receive this hair tool to try as I travel for work a lot and I loved the idea that it was a multi tool. Even more pleasing was that it came with a glove and case. I am a prolific curler and straightener of hair (rip hair) so was excited to have the option of either depending on my mood and style for the day. Sadly I found this pretty clunky to use. The straightener didn’t grip my very fine hair very well and was almost impossible to curl using the straightener function. The curler was ok and took some getting used too. I think it would be ok ✅ once you worked out a technique but I’m still kind of figuring that out.

I was really excited to receive the contour cup and lotion to trial. The lotion has a lovely consistency and smells really good. I love the idea of the cup especially as an alternative to dry brushing as often when I have a tan on I’m mindful not to brush it off my skin. However I was never completely sure that I was doing it correctly and getting the full benefit of the cup. I couldn’t quite work out if I had pushed down hard enough or if there was enough or any suction so I did the best I could and just hoped for the best.
