    Redken - Does it live up to its expectations?

    Redken color extend magnetics is a color-preserving shampoo for color-treated hair. The shampoo gently cleanses the hair to enhance shine and vibrancy. I personally have a hard time with color-preserving shampoos as I find they make my hair dry. I often need to use a deep conditioning treatment to avoid a straw-like feeling after the shower. Unfortunately, I experience this product the same way.. Already in the shower, my hair becomes extremely tangled and barely allows the conditioner to be distributed properly. All hair works differently, it may not work on my hair but on yours? So, is it color-preserving then? Absolutely! That's why I've also used up the whole bottle. After all, it doesn't say anywhere that the shampoo is supposed to be moisturizing, so I get that my hair doesn't feel rehydrated. Overall 3/5, it does its job! ⭐️ Smells absolutely amazing ⭐️ Preserves hair color fantastically well! ⭐️ Good price range ⭐️ A little goes a long way, so it lasts a long time. At least for me ❌ Hair feels dry and straw-like..

    Amika - The Secret Weapon

    Amika dream routine overnight hydration treatment was part of the Swedish beauty awards 2023. This is an absolutely amazing product whose purpose is to prevent wear caused by friction during sleep while making the hair manageable and easier to detangle. The product contains hyaluronic acid, which serves to enrich the hair with moisture, it contains coconut water which provides nourishment to the hair, blue/green algae that contribute antioxidants, and an oil blend of fatty acids. This is to lock in the moisture from the other ingredients. The scent is described as lavender, it is a fresh scent but it does smell quite strong. It might be good to know if you are sensitive to scents. I got the tip from my dear hairdresser and she referred to the product as her “secret weapon.” I agree! What a product. It has worked wonders for my hair and is used primarily when my hair needs a moisture bomb. I have previously reviewed the Kerastase treatment and I alternate between these two depending on whether I need protein or moisture. It will definitely be a repurchase when it runs out! 5/5 ⛄ ⭐️ Incredibly moisturizing ⭐️ Reasonable price range based on the results of the product ⭐️ Vegan AND silicone-free formula ⭐️ Makes hair manageable and soft ⭐️ Leaves no residue on the hair strand ❌ Slightly strong scent, doesn’t affect me personally but can absolutely affect someone who has difficulty with stronger scents in their hair!

    Foundation of the Year?

    Giorgio Armani's Luminous Silk foundation has been viral for a while. It's seen everywhere, TikTok, Instagram, makeup magazines, ads.. you name it. The months leading up to my wedding day, I was on the hunt for a foundation, this became my final opinion after trying several foundations, expensive and cheap. Luminous Silk foundation is said to correct, refine, and even out skin tone to give a radiant finish. The formula is described as weightless, buildable coverage, oil-free, and developed with micro-fil technology. Giorgio Armani has created a total of 40 shades, quite impressive if you ask me! What’s the final result? ⭐ Works for me with dry skin as the skin feels hydrated by the foundation, it doesn’t settle into the dry areas of my skin. ⭐ Gives a nice glow ⭐ The coverage is buildable, looks almost doll-like after one layer, it covers everything flawlessly! ⭐ Does not oxidize!! ⭐ Feels barely on the skin ⭐ Many different shades ❌ Is in the higher price range, is it worth 775:-? Naa, not really. There are foundations that do the same job that are in a lower price range. ❌ Might need to be built up a bit first as the first layer can get a bit patchy if I don’t apply a slightly larger amount of foundation directly. ❌ Only works with a beauty blender for me, brushes made it oddly patchy? Tried 3 different foundation brushes, all with the same result.. All in all? I give it 4/5 ⭐ I would absolutely consider buying the product if the price range were somewhat lower! 🤩 I use the shade 1.5! giorgioarmanibeauty Giorgio Armani LYKO

    Magic in a bottle

    I have tried this hair serum for almost 4 weeks now and wow what a difference it has made for my hair! A small amount goes a long way and makes my hair smell fruitier and a bit sweeter. A very suitable scent for the hair without being too overpowering. The serum does not feel thick, the consistency is thin which I find sinks in faster into the hair without leaving a film. I have used the serum every other/every third day as my hair is in need of moisture and it has made a significant difference. My hair has gotten a really nice shine and is more cooperative. Heat styling also lasts longer as the hair is more manageable. A plus is that the product contains heat protection! From the entire range, I would say this product is a must if you are standing there debating which product in the range to buy. 🌳 #matrix #lykotestpilot

    Salon-worthy hair!

    Wow, what a hair mask! The product is enriched with avocado oil and hyaluronic acid, which together create a fantastic moisturizing product. The hair mask is very thick, which for me means that a larger amount of product is not required. The hair mask is generous with product and contains 500 ml, which for me will last incredibly long! The hair feels incredibly soft and shiny. The only thing needed is 3-5 minutes of processing time, after 5 uses I started to notice a positive change in my hair! It was no longer as dry and lifeless. 🥰 The product does not add any color and has a more fruity and sweet scent. The product gets 4/5 ⭐️. It would have been great to have a slightly more watery consistency as the hair can feel a bit greasy if you happen to use too much product. #Matrix #Lykotestpilot

    Enriched with moisture!

    Likewise, this shampoo is a super product for my hair! My hair feels absolutely more manageable, my frizz in the lengths is not as noticeable, and the hairbrush glides through my hair without any problems. The scent is the same as the shampoo, a nicely strong scent and very fresh. Almost a bit fruity. It requires very little product for me to cover the hair lengths. I highly recommend the series, especially during colder times and drier air! I can see a significant improvement in my hair after regular use of the products! 5/5 ⭐️ #Matrix #Lykotestpilot

    Miracle shampoo!

    This shampoo was the first one I took with me when I spontaneously went to the delivery. My hair was a complete knot and barely brushed out. I had tested the hair series a few times before and knew it would work wonders. 🧚‍♀️ Sure enough, I came out of the shower with silky smooth hair that smelled just right and fresh! I don't think the hair feels greasy, rather it stays cleaner and doesn't need to be washed more than once a week. Over the past few days, I've noticed that the hair is more cooperative, soft, and doesn't require as much time or heat to get it styled nicely! I'm super satisfied with the whole series! Clearly 5/5 ⭐️ #Matrix #lykotestpilot

    Matrix - Food for soft

    I have been given the amazing opportunity to review Matrix's new line, food for soft! It’s going to be incredibly exciting to test this line, especially now during the winter when my hair is in great need of moisture ☔️ I look forward to seeing what the results will be; based on my hypothesis, I think this will be a great match for my hair! #lykotestpilot #matrix

    Goodal - VITA C

    🍊 Goodal Green Tangerine Vita C Dark Spot Care Serum is said to give a radiant skin and is formulated for hyperpigmentation and should provide an even skin tone. I have used this serum for a while, however, it is not a serum that works for my skin. I am currently a bit on the dry side, have some dark spots from previous pimples/rashes. Unfortunately, I have not noticed any difference and have now stopped using the product. Unfortunately, this will not be a repurchase as it does not do much for my skin. The product gets 2/5 ⭐️ 🤭 Pros - Smells good - Absorbs quickly into the skin without being sticky - Gives a nice glow 🍊 Cons - The skin may react to the product as it is quite strong - Not noticed any difference in my hyperpigmentation or any other difference that I was surprised about.
