This is a well thought out product. The amount you receive is very generous and it has a pump design (which I prefer for amount control and hygiene reasons) rather than a flip cap which I have found a lot of other lotion brands lean towards. The lotion itself felt instantly lightweight on the skin and went on smoothly. I applied this on damp skin and it didn't need much rubbing to absorb. There was no post slick greasy feel and it did not stain my clothes or bed sheets either (I applied this post shower just before bed). The lotion is lightly scented with floral notes, however I can see how others with sensitive noses can find this too strong. The scent strength was fine with me as I prefer the smell of my lotions to last all day. In terms of moisturising, it gets the job done quick. I have dry legs and it provided an instant kick of hydration. If you have very dry skin however I would recommend choosing Nivea's heavier options such as their creme tin.

I've had lots of experience with this kind of product and have used variations of this from different brands at higher prices, and I feel like this tool does just as good a job. I love the design, very minimalist and has a soft hue that is pleasing to the eye. It was big enough to be sturdy not bulky and fit nicely in my hand. The bristles were not scratchy on my face and were soft and dense enough to make me feel like I was cleansing thoroughly not taking 10 layers of skin off of my face. I did not experience any irritation after using this however my skin did get dry patches in certain places after a few days of use (twice a day) but that is only because I already have pretty dry skin to begin with (that and the fact that we are smack in the middle of winter) and the issue was easily fixed with a night's worth of heavy duty moisturiser. I did notice a slight glow in my skin after a few days of use thanks to its gentle exfoliation, however I do recommend to all the dry skinned ladies out there to work your way up to twice a day usage or maybe limit use to once every two or three days. All in all I think this device is a good budget friendly option in comparison to its more expensive counterparts out there. The battery life lasted a good few days too which is always a plus in my book!

The colour scheme of this bottle actually reminded me of the Garnier products at first. Nonetheless, the design was easy to use and there were no leaks at the nozzle which I have found to happen with other spray bottles by other brands. The smell is very invigorating, very fresh. It was not too strong and did not make me nauseous, however this did not last throughout the day and disappeared after an hour or so. My hair felt very light and fluffy and fresh at first however after an hour my hair fell flat and I still experienced oil. My hair is however usually always flat and I find it hard to find products that volumise. It did give my hair nice texture at first and it left no white cast on my roots. I usually apply this product straight onto my roots, let it absorb and then comb through with a brush hanging my head upside down for volume. All in all, if you do not have heavy limp hair like mine I think this product will work for you.

Packaging - quite small however sturdy. An appealing minimalist and modern design, will look nice on any vanity table or in any bathroom. I prefer squeeze tubes or pumps as they are more sanitary so be sure to wash your hands before you dip your fingers into the jar. Other than that, very satisfied with the presentation and the packaging. Product - the smell and texture are wonderful, feels great on the skin, and does not need a lot of pressure at all. The smell reminds me of the products used at the spas - refreshing and very zen. Result - no instant change yet in terms of appearance. However my skin felt soft and clean post wash. No breakouts, irritation or dryness. I experienced a nice and gentle exfoliation. Give this product a go if you want to try a hand at facial exfoliation but need something accessible. The product smells great and made my skin soft, so it's safe to say I'm one happy camper.

Like the shampoo bottle, I like the gold colour scheme of this product and I find the bottle to be sturdy and not flimsy. I love the scent (also like the shampoo, I feel it smells like bubblegum). The consistency of the conditioner could afford to be a little thicker, and I didn't find that it really made any difference to the nourishment status of my hair. It didn't make my hair any drier nor did it make it any shinier or nourished. To me this conditioner is great for maintenance, however if you have hair that leans towards the drier side like mine, I would opt for a more intense treatment.

The packaging is sturdy and not one bit flimsy, and I quite like the gold colour scheme. The shampoo lathers really well and I love the scent (which to me smells like bubblegum) which lasts about a day and half. My hair felt so fresh after washing and it left no greasy film on my scalp (which in the past has happened to me when using Pantene products). I do notice slight volume in my hair, but nothing too significant. All in all, this is a great shampoo for daily hair cleansing and a bit of volume.

I love BB creams as sometimes I feel that foundations are too heavy for daily wear yet I still needed some kind of coverage. I applied this BB cream in the colour light and the formula was creamy and smooth. I detected a hint of the floral scent that seems to resonate throughout the Skin Perfection range which is great because I found that layering different scents on your face can be quite overwhelming. The BB cream definitely left my face feeling moisturised and hydrated and it didn't accentuate my dry areas. My qualm with this product was that it didn't provide enough coverage for me. I applied the BB cream like I would with a foundation; spreading it out with broad circular movements, however at the end of application I felt like my imperfections such as scars and uneven patches were not efficiently covered let alone last through the whole day. I'd prefer the formula to be slightly thicker as it ultimately feels like a tinted moisturiser to me and I had to apply powder foundation on top to ensure I had the exact amount of coverage I desired. Overall, this BB cream is great for those who want light coverage.

The overall idea of this product instantly intrigued me as I am one of many who would definitely jump at the chance of smoothing out the appearance of my pores and irregularities. Upon application my immediate thoughts were that the consistency and feel of the product greatly resembled Benefit's POREfessional. It definitely left my face with a 'soft focus' finish, eliminated shine and topped it all off with a matte like feel. I applied an equivalent of a grain of rice onto my nose, cheeks and chin as those were the areas that I have the most trouble with when it comes to pores and imperfections. In conclusion, the product meets its claim of smoothing out and 'blurring' imperfections. My only concern is that when applied in excess, the product does have a tendency to ball off when applying makeup afterwards so be mindful of the amount you use.

I've been on the hunt for great dry shampoos for years! I've tried so many and the only brand that I have stuck to was Batiste and I'm still not 100% satisfied. My general qualms about dry shampoos in general were that many made my hair feel heavy and the freshness of their scents would somehow transform into an unsettling smell as the day went on. My hair would usually be left with an uncomfortable texture that made me want to wash my hair anyway. I couldn't even bear to run my fingers through my hair. So of course, as a dry shampoo junkie I was thrilled to receive one by Schwarzkopf. I have oily hair, which would typically look flat on the second or third day after my wash. So volume as well as freshness was essential to me. After spraying its fine mist, fluffing my hair upside down and throwing in a couple of hairbrush strokes, Schwarzkopf Extra Care Dry Shampoo relieved the greasiness I felt in my hair and made it feel fresh and light. There was surprisingly not much residue which I found was a common problem with most dry shampoos. I did not have trouble making the white residue fade from my dark hair. The scent was tolerable but I could live without it. It didn't smell artificial, but I personally am very sensitive to scents so it was not my cup of tea. Scent preferences differ from person to person though, so I suggest that you should judge the scent of the product for yourself. In terms of volume, the results were not major, but it did relieve my hair from its second day flatness and you could hardly tell that my hair was oily. Small enough to take with me on my travels, yet large enough that I don't have to repurchase after only a couple of uses, the bottle size is very reasonable for its retail price. However, there was a small leakage problem. I won't claim that Schwarzkopf's dry shampoo is the best I've ever tried but it is definitely at the top of the list. Give this one a go!

What immediately set apart the two products for me was their appearance. Product 1 had a seal around the border of its cotton pads. I found that this helped to ensure that the cotton pad did not tear or wear during use. I found that when using Product 2, it tore apart fairly easily and I had to reach for a new cotton pad. I also found that sometimes I would accidentally peel Product 2”°Ã› ªs cotton pad in half when taking it out of a pile of cotton pads because without the seal, it made it quite difficult to differentiate one pad from another, especially when they are placed in a pile and particularly when you are in a hurry. The thickness for both Product 1 and 2 was fairly similar and they were both soft and not scratchy like other cotton pads I have tried. Both cotton pads did not have any smell to it which I liked because I have tried fragrant cotton pads before and they usually irritate my skin or hinder my experience. The sizes of Product 1 and 2”°Ã› ªs cotton pads were the same and practical enough to carry in my handbag. Their sizes also helped increase the surface area and rate at which products were applied on my face or when nail polish is being removed from my nails. Out of everything, I have to say that the size of the cotton pads spoke out to me the most. They were not too large and chunky which prevented products from going to waste (I only used the cotton pads for liquid products) but was large enough to make it easy for me to quickly complete a beauty routine whether it be removing nail polish, applying toner on my face or removing eye makeup. If I had to choose one out of the other, my preference would lean towards Product 1, purely because it did not tear as easily as Product 2”°Ã› ªs cotton pads did. Product 1”°Ã› ªs cotton pads were also slightly softer, however, the difference between the softness of Product 1 and 2 are not largely noticeable or different. One must really feel and analyse the cotton pads to really notice something. Either way, I am satisfied with the performance of both Product 1 and 2”°Ã› ªs cotton pads and would not mind using any of the two. I recommend both for their versatility in helping you carry out many various beauty routines, but as I said before, if I had to choose one out of the two, I would choose Product 1 for the reasons stated.
