I tried this product as part of a discovery bag and it was (gasp!) my first EVER real fake tan. I was very impressed at the subtle, natural looking result. I applied it to my legs with only my hands (no mitt required). It smells vaguely coconut-y which I really like. The product itself is tinted a dark brown which makes it easy to apply it evenly. I left it for about 1hr (as it suggests on the pack), rinsed off and went to bed. The next morning I had a really subtle, natural tan on my legs. No streaks or patches and no stains on my sheets - I'm sold!

I received this product as part of a discovery bag and I would definitely re-purchase it. The packaging is cute and I love the fact that it's an Australian brand. The product itself smells chocolate-y on application and is super-hydrating. It does take a little longer to dry than other tanning moisturisers I've tried and I think this is probably due to the SPF. However it didn't come off onto any of mu clothes and the SPF makes it perfect for me, as you can apply in the morning and develop a tan over the day, while still being protected from the sun! It does have a mild fake tan smell after a while, but so does every gradual tan product. The colour itself is very natural, not orange at all on my pale skin. It didn't have any trouble with streaks or patches, just a nice golden glow. Great product and a fairly reasonable price.

I bought this product from the supermarket after having bad experiences with dry shampoos leaving a powdery residue on my dark hair. As a dry shampoo this product works wonders, soaking up extra oil and providing good texture and volume for my fine hair, which makes styling hair so much easier. It also smells really good! My main con was that the bottle ran out quite fast (2 weeks tops) so I (a cheap uni student) can't afford to use it all the time. A great buy!

I received this gloss as part of a free gift promotion, and I am totally in love. The packaging is pretty and ladylike, sweet without being childish. The gloss itself is gently scented and with a good consistency - not too runny or gloopy. It has a nice level of shine and makes my lips look plumy and voluptuous. The colour I received was 'Impulsive Coral' which is a nice girly pink, perfect for everyday wear. I find that it has good lasting power for a lipgloss, lasting for a few glasses of wine and some nibbles before I need to re-apply. The only con I would say is the large price tag, but if you're the sort of person who wears gloss every day then this is definitely worth it!

This is my go-to dry shampoo! It smells ah-mazing (but not overpowering), soaks up oil without leaving any white residue and gives great volume and texture. I've tried other brands for dry shampoo but Batiste is always the best, and it's really cheap too!

This is the best razor ever!! I use it for everything - underarms, legs, bikini line (in emergencies) and it leaves me feeling beautiful and silky smooth every time. I've had the same handle for about 3 years and it's still in perfect condition. The cartridges are available at most supermarkets and are super-cheap. Each one is good for about 4 days of shaving, so they're super good value and great for the environment as you're not throwing away a whole razor every couple of days. I've never had one razor cut from using this product either, even when I shave in a hurry. I've tried more expensive models but I always go back to this one!

First of all, this product does EXACTLY what it says. Apply it properly and you will have amazing bat-worthy doll-eyes. It lifted, separated, volumized and lengthened my lashes to give an amazing effect every time and is great for layering up for a dramatic night out look.
I did have the same problem as a lot of other reviewers in that the brush always comes out loaded with waaaaaay to much product which will cause the mascara to clump if you don't wipe off the excess, especially at the tip. The brush itself is a great shape for really flaring out the lashes in the outer corners which makes your eyes look larger. The dainty tip can be used to coat your inner and bottom lashes with ease.
HOWEVER given that this mascara costs around $50 and claims to be 'water resistant' I experienced too much smudging for me to re-purchase it. At the end of a normal day, even when I only apply to the top lashes, I inevitably end up with dark smudges under my eyes. Nights out, sweating and dancing, are even worse (although the lashes themselves still look great). That said the mascara does come off well without makeup remover so the lack of durability could be seen as a plus. Also, given he price, I don't think it is reasonable that you have to wipe off and waste extra product every time you use the mascara. Personally I would not re-purchase this product.

I was given this brush as a gift, and it is definitely my go-to brush for powder blush and bronzer. It manages to hold just the right amount of product to get a nice, even application. The long bristles allow it to move very freely so you don't get any 'clown cheeks' - it blends itself! I love to pinch it slightly and use it to contour my cheekbones with bronzer too. My only minus is that it's not quite as soft as some other brushes I've come across (e.g. Body Shop), but as it's not a foundation brush this sin't a problem for me.

I had my face made over at a body shop yesterday, and although the makeover was really nice, a great daytime look. At first glance this foundation is a good one, with moderate coverage and a nice consistency. It goes on smoothly and looks quite natural, and the colour selection is really great; my pale skin was matched perfectly. However I'm really glad I didn't end up buying it as after a few hours of shopping I noticed that the foundation no longer matched my face! It had oxidised quite a bit and turned quite orang-y, leaving me with a noticeably darker face and a visible foundation line. Given the other positive reviews of this product I won't warn everyone against it, it may just be my skin type is not suited to this foundation. Just make sure you try it out for a few hours/a day before you buy it so you are sure it won't turn orange on you!

I received this product as part of a shampoo-conditioner-masque sample set and I was very impressed with the results. The masque had a fantastically thick, luxurious consistency, not a very strong scent (a huge plus in my books) and rinsed out easily. This set left my hair noticeably smoother, moisturised, stronger and more shiny after just one use! It did wonders in smoothing my split ends, which are usually quite frizzy. I would definitely buy this product, especially since it is so reasonably priced. Good one Schwarzkopf!
