    Over expectation, but also overrated

    I have as #lykoinflutester had the pleasure of testing this LED mask for the lips from #silkn for a few weeks. I have used it almost daily, 5 minutes at a time. My starting point is that I still do not have any visible wrinkles to work with, but rather quite thin lips that I would like to enlarge (but am too narrow for fillers). In addition to this, I want to mention that I am quite cynically inclined and therefore read a bit about what evidence exists for the effects of LED masks in general. It seems to be proven that it can have an effect on wrinkles, but on the other hand, there seems to be a lack of evidence that it could lead to fuller lips (more than just very short-term). Therefore, I have not had particularly high expectations. However, I think I see a slight difference! Therefore, I titled my review "over expectation" 💋 It is, however, very marginal (!), and hardly possible for anyone else to perceive. I am attaching pictures so you can decide for yourselves, but please note that they were taken in different lighting and that I have lip gloss on the after pictures (but no lip plumper or anything like that). I will continue to use it for a while, it remains to be seen if the effect can increase over time. Practically speaking, I find it easy and convenient to use. It gives a luxurious impression and seems to be of good quality. The box contains instructions that were easy to understand, so it was simple to get started right away. The procedure is completely worry-free, feels not at all, and does not add any extra time to my evening routine. To everyone considering trying it, I would like to nuance with a warning finger, as the majority of all other testers seem to be incredibly positive. If you expect a visible difference, like after real filler, I think you will be disappointed! However, if you do not consider enlarging them for real and think that even a subtle little plump effect would be nice, it doesn't hurt to try! But for the considerable money it still costs, my recommendation is to not have too high expectations. That is my honest opinion.

      Hey Caroline! 🤠 Shine Tone is a color treatment that lasts about 4-8 washes, depending on how often you wash your hair and your hair's conditions 🤗 It's a perfect way to refresh the color 👌🏼 Have a nice day ☀️

    Affordable and long-lasting lipstick!

    Five stars! Affordable (I would even say quite cheap), long-lasting, and very pleasant to use ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I felt compelled to review because it has somehow received an average rating of 1.5 stars (even though the vast majority of reviewers have given five stars? 🤔), that is really misleading. I chose the color Spicy, which is a muted red. In some of my pictures, it looks like it pulls a bit cool, but that’s due to my lighting; I would say it’s quite neutral (neither particularly cool nor particularly warm) - a muted, pleasant red. Just the right amount of pigmentation for my taste, not completely opaque like a spackle but definitely not too little. It creates an even and nice color that is easy to apply nicely without the edge becoming too sharp. If you want a sharp edge, you can use a small brush for that. A big bonus is the "top coat" that comes with it, it fixes and softens super well, and can be reapplied multiple times. The lips don’t feel dry all evening! I’m not a particularly good selfie photographer, but I made an attempt 🤪 to show how well it holds up throughout the evening. I needed to touch up a bit on the inside of my lips after dinner, but the outside looked completely unchanged (which is the most important!) 💋 #lyko #tävling

    Blue or Platinum Grey

    Hi! I have this in Raw Cacao and really like the product itself, but I would like to adjust the shade a bit! I've read a little about how to mix the different shades, for example, I found the suggestion to mix Raw Cacao with Platinum Grey for a slightly muted brown shade. However, I would prefer to achieve a cooler (not necessarily lighter) shade of brown, therefore I'm tempted to mix Raw Cacao with a bit of Blue (e.g. 5 parts Raw Cacao and 1 part Blue). Do you have any experience with this? Or any qualified guess on whether it could work?

    New favorite

    Hey! I got to try this dry shampoo from a friend and it went straight onto my favorites list. I can now go significantly longer between washes. When you read about it, it says that it promotes a healthy scalp, can you interpret that as there being no risk of it drying out the hair/scalp? 😅 Asking because I feel like I might end up abusing this...🥰🤣

      Hey! 🤍 How wonderful that K18 AirWash has become a favorite of yours! 🥳 When it comes to the dry shampoo's effect on the scalp, it's really great that you perceive it that way, the product is designed to refresh the hair without drying it out or irritating the scalp. It contains ingredients that also help to care for and promote a healthy scalp. So you can feel safe using it without worrying about dryness, even if you use it often. But as with everything, it's best to let the scalp rest sometimes with regular washing and care!🫧 Hope this helps!😍🫧

    Untreated hair / roots?

    Hi! Does this work on untreated hair? I'm looking to refresh my existing (colored) hair color, but I also want to be able to use it to extend the interval between salon visits, and therefore I also want the roots to take some color. Does it work? Best, Caroline

      Hey Caroline! 👋 Oh, such a good question, it can absolutely have an effect on untreated hair. But it works best on strands where there has been a chemical treatment before! 🥰👍 You should definitely expect a nice shine throughout the hair and that it provides nourishing strength. Hope you like it if you try! All the best ❤

    LOVE!!

    What a fantastic product! I saw a girl on Instagram talking about it as the pure miracle product, and I'm ready to agree. I haven't even used it for a week, but I already see (and feel) a noticeable difference! My hair feels healthier and less frizzy. I was worried that oil in dry hair would make it greasy (sorry skaraborgskan 🤪), but thanks to the light serum consistency and pipette packaging, it's easy to dose. It's economical, so you only need a few drops per day, which are spread over both palms and carefully distributed through the lengths. I expect to see great results in my hair quality in the long run, thanks to this wonderful oil serum 😍 Not the world's best before picture because it was actually taken on the earrings 😅, but I hope you can see that it's more frizzy/dry there. I can also mention that it was almost 2 months since the last haircut, I think it looks pretty fresh. #tävling

      Hey Caroline! 😊 Make Up Store is currently relaunching their brand, so we unfortunately have no information on when this product will be back! But we’re keeping our fingers crossed that it gets launched again! If you’re looking for a similar product, we’d be happy to help you find an alternative that hopefully will be just as appreciated! Take care! 🤍

    Hard to evaluate, but feels good!

    I have been testing this serum from #nioxin for about four weeks on behalf of #lykoinflutester. I want to start by saying that I probably don't actually belong to the target group for this serum, as I have fairly thick hair, am not troubled by hair loss, and have no need to try to increase density. ➖ I have tested several products from the series, which as far as I can judge are supposed to serve roughly the same function. Hair & scalp thickening treatment, night density serum, and this serum - all three are light sprays/serums that are to be applied to the scalp in order to counteract hair loss and give a denser hair. Since at least both serums cost about 800 kr each, I can't help but wonder why one would need two such similar products. I generally find the brand Nioxin to be trustworthy and have no reason to believe that the serum wouldn't deliver results! Personally, however, I can't claim that I notice any direct difference in my hair, hence the somewhat modest rating. Not because I am dissatisfied in any way, but because it feels misleading to give a higher rating when I actually can't attest that it delivers on its promises. ➕ My experience is that it is a good scalp serum, regardless of whether it helps against hair loss or not, it definitely feels like it moisturizes the scalp, and that in itself is important for healthy and beautiful hair! ❕ Last but not least, I want to comment that I saw among other comments that many testers have used this serum daily, which I want to clarify that I have not done. I have only applied it after washing, which may have affected the results. I will continue to use this serum and will get back to you if I feel it deserves a higher rating later on!
