I use this after shaving or exfoliating and it really helped with my dry, tight and itchy arms and legs. My partner found it and starting using it as a massage oil because the scent is very nice, not too strong and it wont go sticky while rubbing it in. I wouldn't say quick drying but definitely fast absorbing. I also use this to remove the 24hour superstay lipstick and heavy makeup. Saves you from having to wash and scrub your face 3 times and leaves skin nice and soft. Perfect for heavy makeup removal

I purchased this at chemist warehouse during a half price sale and for only 7 bucks it's hands down the best gradual tanner iv tried. The lotion is best applied after every shower and dries super fast .It leaves skin ridiculously smooth . I exfoliate once a week to buff off the faded areas and keep skin looking fresh. The gradual tan last for ever if you top it up every few days and fades evenly with no patching.. Great for preparing for summer. The cellulite reduction claim, I think it just helps reduce the appearance which most tan do help disguise cellulite but this defiantly makes my skin feel firmer. Purchased in the fair to medium as I'm very pale and this never looks Orange as most tanning products do. Great moisturizing properties as my skin has never felt dry with this product.Great for use after shaving as it didn't sting and prevents that snake skin on my legs I used to get after a fresh shave. Will repurchase but one bottle lasts about a month.

I never thought I would love a store brand for nail polish as I was convinced they would always chip or leave nails stained and brittle. But this collection from Sally hansen is amazing . Such vibrant colors and a amazingly smooth application. I have quiet a few shades of this range my favorites being a shiny black and " A perfect tin" which is a lovely metallic silver light purple . And the shade "water color" is a vibrant aqua ocean blue. All very long lasting and if it gets on the skin it scratches off easily.. The glass bottle are a great size and the brush is very soft and rounded at the tip to allow fastest application . I always seem to buy these on sale and they are well worth every penny. One jar will last over a year as iv never had one dry out or become unusable.

I used this this to set makeup or when my skin is drying out in the cooler months and feels a bit scaley.. I keen it on my bed side and as often as can remember I'll must it up into the air and let it settle over my face. It's a lovely flowery scent and leaves no residue . But hydration is the key factor in this product. As well as it seems to clear signs of blemishes or rough patches without any drying .

While the bottle hints at a night time heavy woody notes type perfume it is surprisingly light with hints of floral but the black musk and pepper notes really stands out for me . While perfume always settles differently with different people i usually love a spicy woody scent but they can seem only suitable for evening , this is an exception. It has enough lighter day at notes to last freshly throughout the whole day. Perfect amount of layers and not at all overpowering or heavy. Cute and attractive little black glass bottle

The biggest problem with body moisturiser is it usually stays sticky and wet feeling for waaaay toolong, I'm not going to stand naked drying off all day!! So the drying time with this is amazing, I feel it almost has a powdery finish as it absorbs so well.. Within 5minutes I can comfortably dress. Secondly the smell is awsome, a refreshing light scent compared to the usually heavy Shea butter smells.
Even applying straight after a shave, it dosnt sting and there no chance of scales anywhere while this is in my bathroom..
Looses a point for price but otherwise brilliant.

Along with purchasing this product you will need to also purchase a pack of popsticle sticks as this small plastic spatula is very wide and isn't suitable for facial hair.
The orchard scent is lovely and intensified while heating (for 4-5mins).
I struggled with the classic too hot too cold that often is at home waxing, I managed to burn my brow bone :(
I usually love at home waxes and find I can mange to not make a mess everywhere, but I have to reheat this about five time while doing my brows and upper lip so I tends to get everywhere, including drying all over the spatula..
It also left behind quite alot of flakes I have to scratch off in the shower, this usually doesnt happen.
Unfortunately will not repurchase..

I often find the fabric or cardboard that comes with boxed waxes are of horrible quality or don't pick up all the wax and I'm left ripping at the same patch multiple times. After having a collection of wax tub that I had lost the "reusable" strips or the strip was useless at picking up wax I finally stubbles across these.. Bargin! Now I can make use of all those half tubs.
So soft and affordable, just rinse with soapy water or let soak and rinse.

I found it really hard to build volume or length with this mascara. The formula is quite thin and coat the lashes nicely with great separation.
Once dried my lashes still look abit wet, this definitely dosnt dry matte. Compared to my last mascara the wet look looks funny in my opinion.
The staying power is good and found it didn't flake and smudges are easily removed The brush itself is stiff, I found I only used the non curved side as the curved side deposits ALOT of product but the bristles are too short to drag the product through the lashes.
