    Not for me

    I have tried this product a couple of times now and it’s just not for me. I have normal/fine, bleached Nordic hair and can’t have too heavy products in my hair. Even though I only took a small pea of this in the lengths, it laid on the hair strands like a coating, so it felt dirty and heavy. My hair is healthy and well-hydrated during the day, so maybe this just isn’t what my hair needs right now. I will test it again in the fall when my hair is in a slightly different «condition» to see if it makes a difference, but for me, for now, it’s a real miss. #lykoinflutester #goddess

    Unsure

    After testing the product a couple of times, I think it works best for glow, not tan. I should mention that I am quite tanned at this time of year, so this product may be better suited for those with lighter skin tones. I have tested applying it to my skin without any skincare on, as well as with skincare products, and also over makeup. Of all three mentioned, it was only completely without products on the skin where I saw a slight difference. I think it gave a nice glow, but that was really it. It also seems to lean towards orange/golden in tone, so it might be good to keep that in mind. I like the design of the bottle and that the product comes out in a mist that spreads very nicely. I also like the scent of coconut, even though some others might think it's too much. It obviously also smells like self-tanner. 100ml and very budget-friendly too, I think. Because it didn't have such a big effect on my skin, it unfortunately didn't become a new favorite. I will continue to test it a bit moving forward when I get a little lighter in skin tone, so maybe that will change. But as I said - it gives a nice glow and makes the tan I have from before look fresher and more hydrated, so definitely not a bad product. #lykoinflutester #rebeccastella

    Multifunctional product I didn't know I needed

    This product should be a must-have at home, plain and simple. I wasn't very familiar with this active ingredient and thought it wasn't anything to write home about, to put it that way… BUT I am very positively surprised. I have used the spray on piercings, sunburned skin, after shaving to avoid irritation, and on my face after working out, and I really like it for all these purposes. I experience virtually no irritation after shaving with this, and my sunburned skin was significantly better the day after I used the spray. I have also started using it in the morning after washing my face, as I only use water to wash my face in the morning. I really like that it is not scented. It can apparently be used for much more, so I am excited to see how it will work on my face after a facial treatment or on acne-prone skin. I also have a cat with dry paws that will get a couple of rounds with this. Maybe it's good for mosquito bites too? It will be exciting to test it out in the summer. Definitely a product I will buy again. #lykoinflutester #MARIOBADESCU

    I have tested this toner for a while as a #lykoinflutester and I'm not completely convinced, while I like the product more than I thought I would. The toner is a bit thicker in consistency than I'm used to, and smells a bit strong. Still, I find that it provides surprisingly good moisture. I tested it while I was abroad and in the sun every day. I found it very pleasant on my skin in the evening, especially if it had been kept a bit cool (but maybe that's not advisable regarding shelf life?) All in all, I think the product moisturizes well and is a good addition to my routine, but I don't feel like I need it. The bottle is large and very reasonably priced, so it doesn't hurt to try. I find it mild despite it also being exfoliating. I don't know if it has given me much glow, but it definitely provides moisture. #MARIOBADESCU

    Why aren't more people talking about this??

    I've been trying this lip mask for a while now as a Lyko tester and I'm very positively surprised. I have to be honest and admit that this brand hasn't been a favorite of mine in the past, so my expectations were accordingly. This mask is absolutely lovely, both as an overnight mask and as a lip balm throughout the day. It moisturizes well and the consistency is just lovely - easy to apply and not sticky. It smells and tastes very good, but not strong. Since it is quite light, you might find that it doesn't last as long as stickier variants, but I actually think that's perfectly fine. I've been using this every day and night since I got it and haven't found that I've become dependent on it, as can be the case with many other masks (for example, Laneige for me). Very cost-effective product, as it is economical to use and the jar is quite large. The only thing I could possibly criticize is the boring design and that it's a jar (not very hygienic), but all in all, a fantastic product that I will buy again in the future. Highly recommended!! #MARIOBADESCU

    What happened

    I liked Estrid before, but after they changed the blades, I experience the blade falling off several times during shaving, as well as getting bumps and irritated skin. The soap on the blade is simply not good, and it also makes it so you can't shave all the way down to the skin. You have to go over the same spot several times, and even then it's not certain that everything has been taken off, despite the brand new blade. Having to put the blade back on several times during shaving has also caused me to cut myself several times and get razor cuts on my fingers - it's not pleasant! Soap-slick razor blades are not easy to handle… I do not recommend this anymore at all. It is also impossible to hang on the wall in the shower. I give it two stars for the cute design, but that's it. If anyone has something to recommend, please feel free to share! So far, it's disposable razors from Gilette that give me the best results.

    Good Cleanser

    I have combination skin and have now tested the product every night for about 3 weeks. First, I tried to use the cleanser as both a makeup remover and a cleanser, but I didn't think that worked particularly well. The makeup still held up quite well after one round with the cleanser, and even after round 2, I felt like something was still left behind. I then switched to using a makeup remover/oil cleanser as step 1 and this cleanser as step 2, which worked much better. Everything disappears, and my skin felt very clean, without being too tight. All in all, a decent cleanser, but it doesn't hold up as a makeup remover for me. I prefer to double cleanse anyway, so for me, it doesn't have much to say, but it doesn't deliver on that point. I'm also not a fan of using exfoliating products in the eye area, as it can make the lashes more fragile in the long run (good to keep in mind). Considering the price, I didn't find this to be a very impressive product, unfortunately. There are so many good alternatives on the market that do a better job, especially for me who can handle slightly stronger ingredients. I will use it up, but probably won't buy it again. However, if you have sensitive skin and want an exfoliating cleanser, I would think this is one of the better products on the market. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #PLYSKIN

    Good as a night cream

    I have been using this product regularly for the past few weeks and have come to the conclusion that it works best as a night cream for my combination skin. It is somewhat thick and takes a bit of time to absorb into the skin - especially if you combine it with other products first. It also feels quite thick in consistency, which my skin usually reacts to a bit with breakouts and bumps. It has gone well now that I have only used it as a night cream, and my skin has felt well moisturized in the morning. I especially like that it comes in a tube, which is more hygienic than a jar. The ingredients are also very good - there are no irritating ingredients here for those with sensitive skin, and the product can therefore also be combined with most active ingredients. What brings it down a bit is that I didn't experience anything other than moisturized skin and that it can't be used during the day for me. Not a new favorite, but I would think it is very good for those with dry skin. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #PLYSKIN

    Good product

    I have tested this product a couple of times over the last few weeks and think it works well. The product is somewhat reminiscent of highlighter drops from Dior, for those who know that product - but of course not exactly the same. In terms of price, I think this is a good alternative. I have applied a bit all over my face and only where I want glow, and I prefer the latter. Applying it all over the face gives a bit too much of the good stuff, I think. Something that might be a bit silly, since this is supposed to be a skincare product and not a makeup product. All in all, nice design, good product, and does what it’s supposed to do, but maybe not as good as the alternative I know from Dior. I don’t mind paying a little more if it makes a difference in quality, and you can feel that a bit here. Very positive that this product contains skincare, but I would probably prefer to have them as two separate products. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #PLYSKIN
