I have loved every product by Burt’s Bees that I have tried over the years, and this one is no exception. This is a fantastic lip balm with a lot of natural and conditioning ingredients, and leaves my lips feeling really soft and supple. I find the difference in my lips is particularly noticeable when I apply this lip balm overnight, and then wake up to lovely smooth lips in the morning! It is also reassuring to know that this product contains a range of natural ingredients, especially considering how much lip balm we likely ingest throughout the day by eating, drinking, etc. It comes in a convenient size, making it easy to fit inside a pocket or a handbag. Additionally, the twist-up mechanism makes application a breeze. Overall, I would strongly recommend this product to anyone!

I have been trialling the Revlon Illuminance Serum Concealer in conjunction with the Illuminance Glow Filter product, and it has been rather nice! I have been applying the concealer on top of the foundation, though I'm sure it would work just as well when applied underneath. I was provided with the shades 01 Fair and 02 Light at the latest trial as my skin tone sits between the two. I found that using fair shade alone was too pale for me. Using the light shade initially seemed like a very accurate colour match, however I found that it oxidized and turned a little bit orange after a few minutes. As a result, I think a mixture of the two shades is the best colour match for me. I have a lot of blemishes from acne scars on my face, and was testing out the concealer on those – it covered them very nicely! As with the Glow Filter, I noticed a slight chemical-y smell, however this this also dissipated very quickly. This is a nice product!

The Revlon Illuminance Glow Filter is a nice product. I have been using it as a foundation, although it can also be used as a glowy layer under foundation, or as a highlighter on the high points of the face such as the nose and the cheekbones. It offers sheer coverage but can definitely be built up a little bit to offer more of a light coverage if needed. The colour match is quite good - I got the shade Light 02. It dispenses with an applicator similar to a liquid lipstick. I personally would prefer a pump pack as I think it is more hygienic and easier to dispense, however, that is just personal preference. The applicator provided still dispenses a good amount of product! The foundation has a slightly chemical-y smell when the bottle is first opened, however once the product is spread on the face, the scent dissipates and it's not noticeable at all. I’d recommend this product to anyone looking for a product which provides a natural-looking glow.

I've never used a contour roller before, so discovering the LONVITALITE Platinum Contour Roller has been really cool! The texture of the roller creates a really soothing sensation on the skin. I've been using it around my face to de-stress at the end of the day which feels nice and tingly. I also tend to hold a lot of tension around my neck and shoulders, so I've been using it on those muscles to help relax as well. Additionally, I like to sing in my spare time, so even using it on the muscles around my jaw and throat has been really useful to release any tension before or after singing practise. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a little bit of luxury and relaxation!

The Dermal Therapy Sensitive Skin Lotion is a fantastic moisturiser that I think would work very well for a variety of skin types. It comes in a pump pack which makes dispensing the product nice and easy. I get very dry skin on my hands and my upper arms, particularly throughout the winter months and during change-of-season. As a result, this has been a fantastic time to trial this product! The product is a white cream with a thick consistency, yet it absorbs very quickly into my skin. The skin on my hands and arms looked noticeably more hydrated after only using this product for a few days. The fact that it is made for sensitive skin is a great bonus in my books as well. Overall, I give this product two big thumbs up!

This Dermal Therapy Lip Balm Original Stick is a very nice product. It leaves my lips feeling very soft and supple - particularly when I apply it before going to bed at night, because when I wake up in the morning my lips feel very incredibly smooth. I have really noticed the difference lately, as my lips have been dry due to the change-of-seasons. I think this will become a staple once we go back into the winter months. The product does not have a strong scent. It comes in a convenient size to carry around in a pocket or in a handbag during the day as well. Overall, I would recommend this product to anybody – particularly those with dry skin and lips.

This John Frieda Frizz Ease Extra Strength Serum is fantastic for my coarse frizzy hair. I dispensed one pump of the product into my hands and then ran it through my shoulder-length hair from the middle to the ends of my strands. I found it took around 10 minutes for the oils to absorb into my hair, and then it made my hair look smooth with very minimal frizz. I really like that this product is also a heat protectant, so I do not need to worry about damaging my hair with heat styling tools. The packaging is a nice size, making it easy to hold in the hand, and the pump mechanism works well. I would strongly recommend this product, especially for people with thick, coarse hair like mine.

The Bioderma Sensibio Micellar Cleansing Oil has been a fantastic product to use. It is marketed as a cleanser to remove make-up. I have found it to be effective at removing make-up, and even more impressive at removing sunscreen! For this purpose, I have been putting some of the cleansing oil onto dry skin where I have applied sunscreen, and rubbing it in until it gently emulsifies. Then once I get into the shower and wash myself, the sunscreen comes off far more easily than using body wash alone. This product leaves my skin feeling soft and clean. In addition, the pump pack is nice and easy to use, and the product does not have any sort of strong scent that I've noticed. It is also a good amount for the price, as a little goes a long way. I would recommend this product for anyone needing a good makeup (or sunscreen) remover!

This is a great, easy-to-use styling tool. I am a big fan of combined curling and straightening tools, since I can create many different looks with the same tool and it will not take up too much space! I like that it has five different temperature settings so it will work for a variety of hair textures. I have fairly thick, coarse hair and found that both style options using this tool held their shape quite well. The straightener was easy to use, and left my hair looking smooth and frizz-free. The curler took some practise to get right, but I don’t use curlers as often since my hair is naturally curly so that might just be me! I’d recommend this tool to anyone.

This is a fantastic hairdryer! I love the amount of choice it provides with its 8 speed and heat combinations, as well as the four different attachments. This makes it so easy to create different looks with the one tool! I have curly hair, so I love using the diffuser attachments for enhancing my natural curls. If I want a different look, using the flyaway tamer attachment is very effective at making my hair look smoother and straighter. I found my hair always dried quickly and without too much frizz using this tool. I also like the Thermacare sensor feature to regulate the air temperature so I don’t need to worry about heat damage. With all of these different settings and attachments, I think it would work well on a wide variety of hair types and textures.
