The colour match of this concealer was prefect for my skin. The packaging is your stock-standard twist up stick concealer but the beautiful rose gold finish feels very luxe. I tried several ways of applying this concealer including with a brush, beauty blender straight from the stick and my fingers. Unfortunately the texture of the concealer really didn't work for me at all. It was really dry and crumbly and no matter how I tried to apply it, clumps of it would break off.
I could not get this to blend into my skin at all. It was quite thick and did not blend in at all, instead just kind of slid around and separated leaving an uneven, mottled finish.
It didn't make much difference if I tried to apply this concealer before or after foundation, I had the same disappointing result.
The coverage was reasonable but because of the bad texture my skin didn't look any better after using this product.

I really wanted to love this foundation. My initial impression was excitement at seeing the sleek looking packaging. While it looked great, it was a bit awkward once you took the lid off. The foundation dispensed with a pump attachment which was great.
The colour match was a bit too light for my skin but it would have been okay if I had been able to blend the foundation.
I first tried applying the foundation with the stippling brush supplied. The finish was very poor, uneven and mottled. I tried to fix it with a damp beauty blender to no avail. I had to remove the foundation completely.
I tried again another day to apply straight with a beauty blender. Whilst better than the brush the finish still wasn't great. The coverage was poor. Trying to build the foundation to improve the coverage just led to a very cakey finish.
I also noticed the more I tried to blend, the worse the finish got.
Unfortunately this foundation really didn't work for me. The bottle does look great though.

Overall I was disappointed with the results from this shampoo and conditioner combo. I can't be sure if the shampoo dried my hair out or the conditioner wasn't hydrating enough - either way it left my hair feeling a little bit dry and with a few more frizzy bits than usual. The conditioner itself has a lovely coconut fragrance that is not too strong or overpowering. The consistency of the conditioner is good, and it was easy to apply to my hair. However, it did seem to thin out quite a bit in my hair so I felt I had to use a bit extra. The bottle looks nice, however I prefer bottles that can be stored upside down when the product is almost finished. I liked that this was a natural product, but I just felt it could have been more effective in hydrating and conditioning my hair. Overall, I probably would not use it again.

I was a bit disappointed with the results of this shampoo. My hair felt quite dry after rinsing it out and that was only mildly resolved by the conditioner. The consistency of the shampoo was nice, creamy and it distributed through my hair easily and lathered nicely. It left my hair feeling clean and smelling lovely. My hair did feel clean and the lovely coconut scent is not too overwhelming and doesn't leave a strong scent lingering behind. The packaging was okay, I think the bottle looks nice and it was easy to use. I prefer bottles that can be stored upside down for when the product is getting low, and this shampoo bottle would make that difficult. I noticed my hair did seem to by a bit dryer overall after using this shampoo and conditioner combo, with a bit more frizz than usual. Overall, I probably wouldn't use it again.

This condition had a bit of a strange texture compared with it's shampoo counterpart. Kind of a bubbly, coarse texture. I was worried but I need not have been. The conditioner is thick, coated my hair nicely and the results were great. I live in a humid climate so a good shampoo and conditioner is essential to avoiding frizz and fluff and I achieved a really smooth result with this conditioner without feeling like my hair was weighed down with a lot of built up product. I got a good result just from washing with the shampoo and conditioner and letting my hair air dry with no other product.
I love the bottle stands upside down so I will be able to get to the last drop of product when the bottle runs out.
The conditioner has a very subtle, clean and fresh fragrance that doesn't linger or overpower. The conditioner rinsed out easily and left my hair feeling smooth and moisturized.
Overall I was really happy with this conditioner and I would use it again.

I am not a huge fan of Pantene usually so I was really pleasantly surprised with this shampoo. I live in a humid climate so a good moisturizing anti-frizz shampoo is essential. My hair is also below bra-strap length. I appreciated this products promise to improve the strength of my hair and although the trial wasn't long enough for me to really tell if it did, there were other immediate benefits.
The packaging of this product is great. I love a bottle that can stand upside down so you can get use ALL the product without any hassle. The fragrance is clean and fresh, not overpowering and doesn't linger. The consistency of the shampoo is thick and pearly, it lathers into a thick, rich lather - not too soapy. It rinses easily - my hair felt moisturized even just from the shampoo.
This shampoo and conditioner combo left my hair smooth and frizz free even when I didn't blow dry it.
As my hair is long, I only wash it 2-3 times per week so it's important that my hair stays reasonably clean between washes and this shampoo easily achieved that.
My hair did not feel weighed down or like it had lots of buildup in it with this shampoo. I would definitely use it again.

This primer is okay, it smells nice and applies really easily. It doesn't leave any residue or feel sticky. I didn't notice any difference between using it or not using it, so for me it just added an unnecessary extra step. I also trialed the foundation and I felt it could hold its own being applied without the primer.

I absolutely LOVE this top coat. It is extremely shiny. I did a side-by-side with some of my other top coats, including Orly Glosser, and this one is the glossiest. It is difficult to explain the finish of this top coat, but it really does give a 3D effect. It makes the polish look deep, smooth and very shiny. The bottle is nice, not as nice as the glass bottles but still okay. The brush is the flat, rounded contoured brush that makes application a breeze. The consistency is thick but not gluggy and it smooths itself out on the nail. This is my new favourite top coat.

I received 'All Fired Up' as part of a Sally Hansen trial team, and even though I have reviewed this product before, this was a great reminder of just how amazing the Complete Salon Manicure polish is. All Fired Up is an orange/red shade I never would have chosen for myself, and to be honest I wasn't that fussed about it in the bottle, but when it was on my nails, I LOVED it. I had previously used Shoot the Moon in this range which is a shimmer. All Fired Up is a gel-finish. It's incredibly shiny, and has that gel like finish which looks amazing and is very forgiving to a shakey application. This polish really is a complete salon manicure. The bottle is lovely and feels very luxurious with thick glass, then a lovely long handle, finished with a soft grip strip. The brush is flat and cut so that it is a semi-circle shape which makes application very quick and easy, and helps give that professional finish. I used this polish both on it's own and with the rest of the Sally Hansen trial products (base coat and 3D gel top coat). The base and top coats do take the polish to the next level, but true to it's name you can use just the polish as a complete manicure. All Fired Up gave acceptable coverage in just one coat, and a lovey deep colour with two coats. It was quick drying and very long lasting. Either with the base and top coats or on it's own, it lasted 7 days with only minor chips. There are so many amazing colours in this range. I definitely need to get some more!

I don't think I've ever given a one-star review on BH before but I am sorry to say this cuticle rehab deserves it. I think the concept is great, I love the packaging where you squeeze the product onto a brush, then apply to your cuticles. It gives great control and allows you to dispense and apply the right amount of product. However, the consistency of the product is awful. It is like vaseline, thick, gloopy and oily. The direction say to apply then massage in, which I think defeats the point of the brush applicator. When you do massage it in, it just spreads everywhere and never absorbs, leaving messy, oily residue all over your hands you need to wash off. This product could be greatly improved if it was a bit thinner in consistency and would absorb into the cuticle after being brushed on, without the need for massaging in or leaving a residue.
