Really affordable and super nice gift!
In collaboration with #lykoinflutester, I got to do a review on this set from #rituals which is really nice. Luxury for a cheap price, I would say, as it contains three really good products! The scent of the products is quite strongly perfumed, almost over the top. But since I personally love the scent, it doesn't bother me. For those of you who are a bit more sensitive to strong scents but still want these, a tip could be to mix the body lotion with a fragrance-free lotion to soften the intensity. One could easily use the lotion as an everyday perfume on its own. The set is also incredibly affordable and makes a perfect gift. I have personally bought this set and given it away, and it has been very appreciated every time. The only negative is the packaging of the body scrub jar. The first reaction when you unscrew the lid is that the amount of product in the large jar is quite little compared to the size. It would definitely have felt better if the jar had been a bit smaller so that the contents matched better. Otherwise, the products are really nice all around. The shower gel lathers super well and works fantastically when shaving, and the scrub is both effective and lovely to use and leaves you moisturized just from that as it is a bit oily.1 product in post Really affordable and super nice gift!1738 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

A true classic!!
In collaboration with #lykoinflutester, I got to try this setting spray from #urbandecay. But this isn't the first time, as this has been a staple for many years now. I would truly call it a classic! If you haven't tried it, you've actually missed out on something! Urban Decay All Nighter is definitely a must-have in the makeup bag, but not without some minor downsides. It's marketed as suitable for all skin types, which I personally don't fully agree with. On me, it can make the skin a bit dry, probably because it contains alcohol which can be drying. But it's good to know if you easily become tight or flaky. On the other hand, the makeup really stays put, and I would say it gives a more matte result for me since I lean towards the dry side. In areas where I need maximum longevity, for example where my glasses rest on my cheek, it's magical! Previously, when I wasn't as dry, I could use it all over my face without any issues. Now I choose more where I place it and save it for the right occasions. So I wouldn't call it an everyday mist, but more of a “now the makeup really needs to last all night” product. Perfect for parties, long days, sweatier occasions, or when you just want to be sure everything stays in place. The scent is there, but it's neither good nor bad. It's not a mist you buy for the scent, so to speak. It has an incredibly nice mist, short and fine. Plus points for being available in both large and small sizes!! Perfect if you're on the go!1 product in post A true classic!!218 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The post was made 1 monthRating: 1 out of 5Verifierad testare
Got greasy again in one go?
As #lykoinflutester I got to try four products from #headon, namely Volume spray, Dry shampoo, Dry shaping heat protection, and Care Leave-in conditioner. Unfortunately, I have to say that a common thread across all these products is that I really can't handle the scents. Strong and notes that were not at all my thing! (See the notes below). Really disappointing since they are perfumer Linda Landenberg who created this scent, Verdant. However, she is an incredible inspiration for me when it comes to my interest in perfume. The scent Verdant contains: Top notes: Freshly cut grass, Petitgrain, Coriander Heart notes: Fig leaf, Peach, White flowers, Palmarosa Base notes: Virginian cedar, Siberian pine Also this one with a strong scent that unfortunately lasts all day. Really good mist like their Dry Heat protection since they have a good pressure which is a must for me when it comes to dry shampoo. But I find that it gets too dusty in the hair. They look almost matte and dry instead of a refresh. Then just after maybe 5 minutes if you brush through again, it’s like you look greasy again (as you can see in the other video where my hair is greasy again). So this one didn’t work for me at all.

Too much texture for my taste
As #LYKOINFLUTESTER, I have tried four products from #HEADON, namely Volume spray, Dry shampoo, Dry shaping heat protection, and Care Leave-in conditioner. Unfortunately, I have to say that a common thread across all these products is that I really can't handle the scents. Strong and notes that were not at all my thing! Really sad since they are the perfumer Linda Landenberg who created the scents. However, she is an incredible inspiration for me when it comes to my interest in perfume. The scent really threw me off, which unfortunately is a recurring theme of these products. Some have more perfume than others. But this was one of those that was too much. I really understand the concept of creating texture if you're going to curl the hair, but I still think it becomes too much texture in the hair as well. The hair feels very unfresh and dry, and the next day I feel greasy and unclean. Sure, the bottle is sleek and the mist is really good. But no, this unfortunately doesn't suit me at all…1 product in post Too much texture for my taste293 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

I’d rather reach for another product…
As #LYKOINFLUTESTER, I’ve had the chance to try four products from #HEADON, namely Volume spray, Dry shampoo, Dry shaping heat protection, and Care Leave-in conditioner. Unfortunately, I have to say that a common thread across all these products is that I really can’t handle the scents. Strong and notes that were not at all my thing! (See the notes below). Really disappointing since they are the perfumer Linda Landenberg who created this scent, Iriscope. However, she is an incredible inspiration for me when it comes to my interest in perfume. The scent Iriscope contains: Top notes: Lemongrass, Iris Heart notes: Clary sage, Iris, Patchouli Base notes: Sandalwood, Cedarwood, Labdanum, Amber, Musk Unfortunately, this product also has a fragrance that I didn’t like at all. I found the mist hard to distribute, and it was easier to spray into my hand to then distribute in my hair. And I won’t be using this up. It doesn’t suit me at all since this scent takes over completely. And if I want volume, I’ll definitely reach for something else that has a scent that suits my “taste”...1 product in post I’d rather reach for another product…187 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Convenient to get the product out but also convenient if you want to take it with you. BUT! This scent made it so I couldn't even test it a second time. I showered in the evening and couldn't sleep because the scent was so incredibly strong, and this bothered me all night long. For a while, I actually considered just washing it off! I don't know if I've ever had so much trouble with a scent on a product as I have with this one:( So unfortunately, this product didn't even get a chance to shine just because the scent took over completely…1 product in post The scent took over completely!511 views- The comment was made 4 weeksSo differently one can feel :) - I thought it smelled so faintly that I even went to a Headon salon and asked if there was something wrong with the sample I ordered! But it was supposed to be like that. However, I later saw that it contains silicone, so I don't want to use it anymore...dumb of me not to check before I bought it..1 likes

Bourbon vanilla and I will unfortunately never agree...
This perfume is a bit like a riddle for my nose. It smells good, floral! BUT, sweet! I think, going into a flower shop and instead of them using a spray that is water, they have taken sugar syrup instead. It's like a sweet scent without smelling like a pastry. Yes, it has bourbon vanilla in the base and it's there without smelling like vanilla. But we will simply never agree. I think the scent lasts well for a long time. But especially a big plus for the bottle. Smart, compact, and without any unnecessary frills that just take up space while traveling. You can even lock it (by twisting the pink part) and it is without a cap. The latter is perfect for us clumsy ones who manage to misplace everything. I will probably spray this bottle up eventually, BUT deep down I know I will reach for another that suits me better. If you like floral and sweet scents that don’t make you smell like a freshly baked bun, then this one is for you! I am however incredibly curious about the male version of this as it has incredible notes in it. Maybe a blend of these two would be a hit for me? #ABERCROMBIEFITCH #LYKOINFLUTESTER1 product in post Bourbon vanilla and I will unfortunately never agree...1099 views- The user's roll: Hairdresser at Lyko.

A real summer refresher!
This mist is truly summer in a bottle. I fell in love with the scent the first time I tried it, and since then it has permanently lived in my backpack that I use for work. Yes, it unfortunately won't fit in a handbag unless you have a big one and are ready for a bit of weight. It is still a solid bottle of 250 ml. So for me, it won't fit for travel. As I said, I have it at work. So I take it with me, considering that after a few hours you need to freshen up the scent a bit or hide the sweat smell. I would say it works optimally, but they might actually have been better off asking the colleagues about that. Unfortunately, I get a good feeling when I use it since it smells so good, but one spray is definitely enough as it smells quite strong at first. So I have to learn to control myself a bit. I am a real sucker for citrus scents, which makes this a clear favorite. But I am definitely curious about the other scents in this Ica Pop series (Berry Bliss and Very Cherry) that might suit the fall and winter season better. It would definitely have gotten full points if the bottle were smaller (of course also a lower price then) so you could take it on the go. But an incredibly great bodemist that I really recommend!! #lykoinflutester #dkny1 product in post A real summer refresher! - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

A really nice flat iron, but with some details to consider.
The flat iron impresses right away with its sleek design and long cord, which you really need! The matte surface provides a really good grip, especially when curling, and it feels well thought out that you can lock the plates to protect them. Perfect when you need to put it away in the drawer or pack it in your suitcase. The iron gives nice shine to the hair and cools down relatively quickly, in about 15 minutes. A small downside is that it takes longer than expected to get hot – about 1 minute and 15 seconds, which can feel a bit slow if you’re like me, used to faster styling tools. It took so long that the first time I tried it, I didn’t think it would give any signal that it was ready. But eventually it did! Which I actually think is a plus in itself! Another thing to consider is that it gets very hot where you’d like to hold when curling. That’s a bit of a shame, because otherwise it’s very easy to get nice curls thanks to the slightly rounded shape. The downside is the price, which is quite high. There are others I would rather have bought in about that price range. The pictures show a before shot. Then pictures of straightened hair and also a curled side. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #BJÖRNAXEN #OBHNORDICA1 product in post A really nice flat iron, but with some details to consider.481 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

A true favorite that gets full marks!
I have used this incredible product for over 15 years and I actually have only good things to say about it! The scent takes me straight back to old party nights, you know that feeling when you were ready to get ready and ready for a party! If you are sensitive to scents, this might not be for you as they smell quite strong. It contains iris, jasmine, and vanilla. And I usually have a hard time with vanilla in scents. But in this combination, it works perfectly as I really like jasmine. The mist also has a good pressure, so it lands in the hair and not on the floor (because we all have a tendency to spray a mist on the bathroom floor after a way too finely distributed mist?😂). Available in both large (150 ml) and small (50 ml) packaging. The small one always comes with me on trips, and it’s super easy to refill from the large one, big plus! The price is also incredibly reasonable! Honestly, there’s nothing I don’t like about this product. That’s probably why I always come back to it. It has been an obvious part of my bathroom cabinet for as long as I can remember. #lykoinflutester #björnaxen I highly recommend it!!1 product in post A true favorite that gets full marks!291 views
