Toni & Guy - Easy Bun Roller is made of silicone coated wire. Very easy to bend, move and open to place hair trough. It is easy to use. Just open the middle to place hair trough , start rolling and bend the device to create bun shape. I like it more to use for ponytail. As my hair is waist long and hangs awkwardly with regular hairbands. This keeps it up perky. Took me a bit of trials to get used to manoeuvring it. As my hair is so long. There are instructions on the packaging how to use it.

The kit is easy to use. Shampoo, condition and massage in foaming scalp leave in serum. I used it differently though as having fine textured hair (medium thick, hip length) and very oily scalp, anything put after washing hair on scalp will make it look not super clean. I used leave in scalp treatment before going to bed overnight . Than would wash and condition my hair in the morning before work. As trial was too short to notice any difference in hair thickening and or fallout difference , I can attest on the feel, scent , hair condition after using for 2 weeks. I ran out of leave-in quite fast though (10 days) as it is in small bottle, trial size too. As the whole kit is. Love shampoo and conditioner though. They smell minty and fresh. Slightly cooling to scalp and stimulating. Conditioner I apply from roots to ends. As it is to treat scalp too and it is not heavy at all, making my hair look fab after air drying. Shampoo and conditioner make my hair so flowy, clean, easy to detangle, healthy looking. No frizz as my hair usually gets. And surprisingly amazing conditioner keeps my hair not weighted down but perfect. Smooth and silky. Being lightweight, was concerned that it would not be enough to help detangling my damaged by bleach highlights (I struggle to brush after washing towel dried, to air dry, with my other haircare). But nope, it is perfect! Struggles be gone. Also another big plus is that this duo prolongs washing my hair one extra day. So it works in balancing my oily scalp too. I am personally not big on leave-in as I can only use it before washing hair night before, so not too often (most 2xweek). But shampoo and conditioner will buy full sizes.

Olay did not change this formulation. Still same as it was years back I first used it. Was hoping for improvement, because it is a popular brand. Scent is first thing that is overwhelming to me. Cream has great texture. Sets on skin not leaving it shiny that I like. But scent stays all day until I wash the cream off my skin. Formula smells like a bar of soap, very strongly at that. In skin quality I see no changes after using the cream for couple of weeks. Formula is still made in Thailand and active ingredients are still listed last on ingredients list (peptides). Unsure if it is just labeling system they have in that country. Means concentration is so low that can not make difference in skin quality. My biggest issue was its perfume and fact that it does not have nourishing and/or hydrating effects. My mid aged skin needs a lot of hydration and plump and a bit of oils. This cream does not provide it.

Revlon Illuminance Serum Concealer is definitely lightweight. My under eye and corner eye area is very thin and gets crepey if the products are too drying and heavy. This concealer has dove foot applicator. I dot small amount on back of my hand, then with my finger just smallest amount on targeted corner eye and bit under. To even out my skintone and blur things out. Love how naturally great it looks. Not makeupy. I wear zero to minimal makeup on day to day basis, lippy, mascara, skin tint and this serum concealer are only things to go when I make some effort. Does not crease on me and makes my eye area look definitely better. I got no creasing as I use and dab small amount, definitely enough for me. Product contains hyaluronic and squalane. Also feels great on, like skincare, not makeup. Does offer coverage though! I chose light shade. My skin is warm, bit olive and light in complexion.

Have had rollers in past. They were light and small for my face. This one has a good weight to it and size. Roller part moves and glides perfectly smooth. I use this Platinum Contour Roller after application of my serums to massage them in. Plus to do lymph massage too. Morning and night, just couple of minutes. It is recommended to use it 10 min or so daily, but I have no time and find what I do is enough. Only thing I do not see great with this roller is the pricepoint. As it is just a face roller. Though a good one. I do not get puffiness, so can not attest how it works in this regard. Feels great on skin when massaging in the skincare mornings and evenings. Super easy to wash, just warm water .

Revlon Illuminance Glow Filter is sheer pigmented filter that makes skin look smoothed, dewy and blurred out a bit. The bottle is glass, dow foot applicator (prefer pump, but this is ok). I apply it with my fingers after finishing my skincare routine. Small amount only as my skin is always on a dewy side naturally. When using this product I use less skincare or skip moisturiser. Not to look too dewy. Does make my skin look same but better, healthier. It can be used on parts of face you want to target (like cheekbones), I simplify and use all over. There are 4 shades, I use the lightest one. My skin is warm toned and light. Blends in well.

Bioderma Sensibio Micellar Cleansing Oil is beautiful face wash. Applied on dry skin and massaged in, then rinsed with water to emulsify. It removes all dirt of the skin (makeup if one is wearing, just city dust and dirt...) leaving skin soft and clean and not dry. There is no oil residue left, there is no residue of anything left. Just clean skin, not stripped barrier. After washing my face with this wash, my skin does not feel so thirsty for products immediately as it does with foaming cleansers and gel cleansers in general. No scent to it, also great for sensitive skin like mine (have had eczema this winter , so healthy skin barrier is so important to me. This cleanser does not strip or damage it).

My fine, waist long, processed and damaged hair does benefit from this serum. I prefer to apply this clear lightweight serum on towel dry hair after wash. My hair soaks it up, I go generously on my fine textured hair. As it is long and frizzy and dry on ends and highlighted parts. Frizz Ease Extra Strength Serum does smooth hair and makes it easy to brush/detangle trough after I wash it. Can be applied on dry hair too. Result is: shiny hair and smooth and soft. Very good pricepoint too. Wish it had some fun scent to it. But it is great for those who are not into haircare that has strong scents.

Burt’s Bees Ultra Conditioning Lip Balm is just a small simple thing that can relieve dry lips. Prevents dehydration I have usually, when lips "shrivel" after a long day of work. Has natural based ingredients 100%, no tint or gloss. Not sticky either, so hair won't stick to my lips when it gets windy. There is slight tingle after application, quickly fades away. There is no need to keep reapplying too often. Small , fits everywhere. It is hydrating, nourishing and creates that protective barrier that helps in keeping lips conditioner.

Dr. Wolff’s V-san Intimate Wash Lotion is clear gel like fluid. Lathers just a tiny bit into creamy light lather. I use it as a whole body wash. Can not get into habit of using few washes in shower. As it is pH ideal and balanced, plus scent nice (nutty, hay and bit sweet) and so gentle, why not using it on whole body. Leaves my skin and all body parts clean without stripping my skin barrier. Wash is so good, that skin after feels soft and I do not even moisturise all the time now. It does feel calming to the skin. Great product, just I would prefer pump dispenser.
