I received the serum as part of the trial team and was excited to try it out on the 'expression lines' I have on my forehead. The pump was easy to use and I found I could easily control the amount I needed without dipping my fingers in and contaminating the serum. The scent was unobtrusive and the product was easily applied. The serum made my skin feel a little tacky for 5-10 seconds, but was then quickly absorbed, ready for the application of other products. In the short term, my skin felt a little bit tighter than usual, but I didn't really notice any difference visually to my skin. After using 3-4 weeks religiously morning and night, I noticed that my skin had a 'plumper' look to it. I can't say I noticed any difference to those dreaded lines on my forehead unfortunately. There was a change that I wasn't at all expecting - I have some pigmentation on my cheeks leftover from being pregnant 18 months ago. It looked like a big collection of freckles. Over the weeks of use, this pigmentation began to fade away. After 4 weeks it is noticeably reduced and I now don't feel as self conscious if I have to duck out without any makeup on. I was very surprised with the results. If this product was being marketed for uneven skin tone then I would have definitely given it 5 stars, but as it's sold for wrinkles and boosting collagen levels I could only give it 4 stars as it didn't attack those forehead lines.

I received both this day cream and the 'normal' day cream in the trial team and I found this one to be far more superior, although the packaging being a jar was not pleasing due to the potential to spread germs/bacteria. This cream has a light fragrance - I think the chamomile gives it the refreshing quality. it has a light consistency and I found that it was absorbed quite easily into my skin on cooler days. It wasn't fantastic in the hot weather, although there are few moisturisers that perform well in humid conditions. It provided a decent base for my makeup because it wasn't too greasy, which is very important to me. If the packaging was different I would consider purchasing this product in the future.

This cream comes in a jar which I am not a fan of because of the potential to spread germs/bacteria. The cream is thick and feels moisturising when applied. It has a
light, natural fragrance. I found that it didn't absorb into my skin easily, and in the morning my skin felt a little greasy. My skin is generally normal, although tends to be a little dry especially in winter, so I thought I would not have an issue with greasiness. I must confes that this trial was undertaken during summer so it may be quite different in the cooler weather.

This moisturiser comes in a small jar which put me off from the beginning. I personally prefer a pump pack so that I know my fingers are not spreading bacteria. This day cream is designed for normal/combination skin types. My skin is generally normal, but can occasionally be a little dry. I found this cream to be much too heavy, bordering on greasy, although I must say that it is currently summer, so perhaps it would be better suited to winter/autumn. The cream has a fresh scent, and you can definitely smell the aloe vera. Some may find it to be a little too overpowering. When taking the price into consideration, it is great value for money, but probably not suited to hot weather.

The wipes were a great size and of a good thickness, and they were not too overpowering with fragrance. I found they did a good job to remove my makeup, including heavier going-out eye makeup. Like many other wipes, I found that they left a residue on my skin that I would then have to rinse off before I could moisturizer, or alternatively, use my toner.

The razor is compact, and like most good razors, comes with a wall holder. The design looks quite cool and is slim, especially compared to the Intuition, which is what I've used for many years. Maybe it is because of this that I found the grip to be a little uncomfortable and it took me many uses to get used to. It is only a small flaw in my opinion because it is excellent in many other aspects I've been using this razor for the past month and it doesn't matter how quickly I shave my legs, the result is always smooth and I've never nicked myself, even around the knees. At first I thought there wouldn't be enough moisture in the strips around the blades, but I was wrong. The razor moved smoothly against my skin no matter where I shave, my legs or under my arms My skin always felt soft and smooth after shaving, and surprisingly, my skin was more moisturised (with the exception of the last week, but the weather has been extremely dry and quite cold - my skins worst nightmare). I have always had irritated, blotchy skin under my arms, but I found that after a few uses of this razor, the skin is much improved. For this reason I will continue to use this product.

When I first received Rouge in Love I was immediately taken with the design of the lipstick. It is smaller than many others, which I see to be a positive for those nights when you have a small clutch bag. The colour I received, 159B, was a little too bright for my complexion, but I found that you could layer the colour to determine the depth, so I just stuck to a sheer application. The application itself was very smooth and I found that there was only a little bit of stickiness, which quickly disappeared. I am a BIG lip gloss addict, so I found this lipstick to a be a little too dry for my liking, but it did make a really nice base for a sheer gloss. The colour lasted well, and besides some immediate colour transfer, there didn't appear to be any lipstick on cups. I would seriously consider buying this lipstick in another shade because of its staying power and super-cute design.

Your skin does feel lovely and moisturised after using this product, but unfortunately it doesn't provide that smooth finish that a primer should.

I have been using this cleanser as my 'summer' alternative (I normally use the Rose and Geranium cleanser from A'kin in Winter - it's lovely). It does a pretty good job at removing my makeup and my skin feels clean without being tight. I have 'normal' skin in summer, and 'slightly dry' skin in winter. This cleanser checks all the boxes for me - Australian company, natural ingredients and works a treat.

I really love this concealer. It does a fantastic job of concealing my 'baggy' eyes. I find that using my ring finger does a better job than a concealer brush (although an eye kabuki from EDM is even better!). The setting powder is essential - without it you look like you have shiny smudges under your eyes. I use a fluffy eye shadow bush to apply this powder to ensure a sheer, yet even coverage. The only downfall for this product is that it can 'rub off' quite easily - I wear contacts when going out for special occasions and have to be super careful when putting in eye drops that I don't smudge the concealer off. Overall, a good product. I was very happy with this purchase.
