Did not work for me...
I had the opportunity to test this product from the Swedish hair care brand Björn Axén as #influtester. The product is a "volume thickening spray" and I thought it sounded exciting and like something for me. I have long hair that is typically Scandinavian and easily becomes very flat and a bit slippery and shiny. So when I hear the word Volume, I say Yes please! The product comes in a plastic spray bottle with a pump function, in Björn Axén's classic blue design. The pump mechanism works well and there are no issues getting the liquid out. The product is quite thin and it feels like it distributes well in the hair. I have used it on towel-dried, freshly washed hair and focused mainly on the roots, according to the instructions. Now unfortunately, I do not own a hairdryer as I choose not to use heat tools in my hair. However, I imagine that a hairdryer in this case would have been useful to perhaps activate the product? As for volume, I unfortunately did not see any sign of that! I almost feel like my hair felt flatter after using this product. Like flatter because the hair felt very shiny, if you can understand what I mean? So this is probably not bad for all hair types, but for my hair, it probably needs a bit more texture to give volume. According to the description, it is a light spray that is supposed to give volume without weighing down, so I understand the purpose of it. But for me, it fell quite flat (😉) unfortunately. I think it's a shame that I don't have a hairdryer to test if it would have given better results, but on the other hand, it did say that you could also use the product and let the hair air dry, so... 🤔 Oh well. It is what it is. It also smells salon-good in a unisex kind of way, I think! #lykoinflutester #björnaxen1 product in post Did not work for me...56 views - The post was made 2 weeksRating: 4 out of 5verified customer
Perfect Shade!
Received this pencil today, so I've only tested it once, but I feel really satisfied so far! I have naturally dark blonde hair and the same color on my eyebrows, and I have quite a few eyebrow pencils at home that don't really work in the shade. However, I am really pleased with the tone of this one, it actually matches my eyebrows quite perfectly! I bought the shade called Blonde, mostly took a chance since it was so cheap. But I'm glad I did! As someone else wrote, it's neither too cool nor too warm, quite neutral in tone. But above all, it's not too warm, which I think many lighter eyebrow pencils are, and that absolutely does not work for me. The product is quite waxy, but in a good way. Stays relatively well in place, I think, so far. Sure, it's a bit annoying that you need to sharpen it, but wooden pencils have their own little charm plus a unique kind of formula. No, I don't have much to complain about, especially not when the price was just under 15 kronor 😂 #lykoreview #w71 product in post Perfect Shade!131 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Fun with something new!
I got the chance to test this exciting product via #lykoinflutester, and I've been doing so for about the last month. It's a highlight treatment that comes from the Swedish brand Waterclouds, and I've tried it along with the shampoo and conditioner in the same silver series. I naturally have dark blonde hair, dyed to quite light blonde, and I have long hair that is typically Scandinavian in texture. Sensitive scalp at times, but not right now. I was excited to test this product because I've never seen anything like it before, and if it exists, I certainly haven't tested it. It's a leave-in spray in a pump bottle of 150 ml that you can use on dry or damp hair. It is supposed to brighten warm tones in blonde hair, provide moisture, shine, and softness, and counteract static electricity (!). Sounds like something perfect for me, very exciting! I've mainly used the products in this series together, but I've also tested them individually to evaluate properly. I've used this highlight treatment product on damp hair after I've showered. It doesn't make the hair easier to detangle, rather the opposite, but this is a side note since it's not made for that. It smells very good and fresh and somewhat salon-like, I think. It is light purple in color, I don't think it brightens much in itself but possibly neutralizes yellow tones a little (yes, I think so)! When it has dried in, the hair feels almost a bit coarse, but that's something I've actually liked because my hair is naturally so slippery and shiny, so it gave a bit of hold to it. I give it 4.2 stars out of 5 possible, plus points for smelling so good and for being an exciting and interesting product. Minus points for being a bit tame, but on the other hand, more pigment might have made it look patchy in the hair. It was fun to try, and I will definitely use up the product! #lykoinflutester #waterclouds #leave-in1 product in post Fun with something new!158 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Nja, not bad!
I have tested this conditioner from Swedish Waterclouds via #lykoinflutester over the past month, along with the shampoo and highlight treatment in the same series. I have dark blonde hair that I have dyed light blonde, typically Scandinavian hair and with a scalp that is sensitive at times (though not right now). I have mostly used all three products together, but I have also tested using them separately. The conditioner comes in a 200 ml tube. It is dark purple in color, much more than other similar products I have used before. It contains nice ingredients like betaine and sea kale, which are supposed to strengthen the hair and provide shine and softness. It is also supposed to moisturize and make the hair easier to detangle. I think the conditioner neutralizes the yellow tones of the hair, but it doesn't make it directly easier to brush out. I would have liked a bit more of the actual conditioner effect! I have to use another conditioner after this or together with it to make it work for my long hair. It doesn't make a difference the longer I have it in, I have noticed. I don't feel completely satisfied with this conditioner, I give it 3 stars out of 5 possible because it brightens nicely but doesn't really feel like a conditioner to me! Ps! Smells really good and salon-like! #lykoinflutester #waterclouds #balsam1 product in post Nja, not bad!121 views - The post was made 1 monthRating: 4 out of 5Verifierad testare
I like!
I have tested this shampoo via #lykoinflutester together with the conditioner and highlight treatment in the same series. I have dark blonde hair at the base, dyed to light blonde. I have quite long hair and a relatively sensitive scalp, at least at times, so now you know a bit about the starting condition I had when I tested this shampoo. The bottle is 250 ml, quite standard. It looks nice and a bit salon-like, I think. The product has a faint but pleasant scent, it says it should be passionflower and lotus fruit - I don't know what either of those smells like, so I have no idea if that’s true 😄 The shampoo itself has a dark purple color that almost scared me a little when I first squeezed it into my hand. I thought this is going to dye my hair properly. The shampoo lathers up quite okay, better than other silver shampoos I have tested before, actually. I also don’t think it dried my hair out too much, but conditioner is always a must for me. I noticed on my hands that they were a little colored after I used this shampoo, so you can be prepared for that. My hair also got a purple tone, but that disappeared in the next wash when I used my regular shampoo. But otherwise, I think it lightened my hair a bit and cooled it down, just as it says it should do. It didn’t irritate my scalp either. Personally, I don’t mind having a little purple color in my hair, but I can imagine that not everyone appreciates that, so it might be a good thing to be aware of. I give the shampoo 4 stars out of 5 possible, because I think it’s a product that does what it says it should do. Maybe it’s a bit too pigmented, but it works fine since I use it every other or every third wash. One of the better silver shampoos I have tested. #lykoinflutester #waterclouds #schampo1 product in post I like!225 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Hypat Serum!
I bought this serum a few months ago and had used up almost the entire bottle when I got a task from #lykoinflutester to review it, so that was fun! This serum has a light gel-like consistency that feels moisturizing. It sinks easily into the skin without leaving any traces. It contains many nice ingredients, such as centella extract, niacinamide, allantoin, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid. There are also peptides in it, which can have anti-aging effects by improving skin texture and elasticity. The serum contains no perfumes or colorants, and it is SUPER fast! I think one pump is enough for the amount, and since the bottle is 50 ml, it has lasted me a really long time. I find the serum lovely on the skin, feels a bit cooling and hydrating. This serum fits well into most routines, it doesn’t contain anything that should clash with any other active ingredient (but of course, it’s safest to patch-test on the arm first). So all in all, is this a superduper serum? In theory, it is, and I had read so many positive reviews about it, so I was really super excited! The problem is perhaps that I had too high expectations? Because in practice, this serum didn’t do much for me at all. Sure, it doesn’t irritate, and I feel a bit hydrated when I use it. But I had kind of hoped for more! I didn’t notice any improvement in my skin, which struggles with various issues in the form of acne and eczema. It unfortunately felt a bit anticlimactic. I still think it’s a good product, but I would advise you not to hope for too much regarding what it can do. That’s at least my experience. I give it 3.8 stars, rounded up to 4 🥰 #lykoinflutester #purito #serum #k-beauty1 product in post Hypat Serum!275 views- The comment was made 1 monthJohanna Sabine Emma Viktoria Jana Great review, Johanna👍😀 I think I had this a few years ago when my skin was very dry and quite sensitive, but I was pretty disappointed with the lack of effect I had too😉 Happy New Year1 likes

Beautiful in every way!
A few weeks ago, I got the chance via #lykoinflutester to test and review this cream from Purito. It’s actually a product that I’ve been eyeing for a long time and have been eager to buy, so this was an exciting task! I can just say it straight: I’m a big fan of this cream. Ingredient-wise, it’s very nice, it has 10% panthenol as the star ingredient, but also contains niacinamide, squalene, and centella extract. These ingredients work together to strengthen the skin barrier, hydrate, soothe, and repair. And I feel that this is exactly what this cream does. About a pea-sized amount of cream is enough for the face, so I would call the product relatively economical. With a 100 ml tube, I have enough for a good while! The consistency is quite light, but you can still feel that it provides a bit of lubrication. It absorbs very nicely into the skin and is both fragrance and color-free. My skin is oily, very sensitive, and constantly affected by eczema and acne. I feel that this cream suits my skin very well; it’s exactly what it wants in terms of moisture and oil. If you have drier skin, I can imagine it might work in the summer, but that it might not be sufficient right now. I use the cream both morning and night as the last step in my skincare routine, and I find it works great under makeup, which is a must for me. The only negative about this product is that I can’t think of anything bad to say about it 😂 A real star, if you ask me! #lykoinflutester #purito1 product in post Beautiful in every way!455 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

A Really Nice Shampoo!
I bought this shampoo during that magical ✨️ evening when Lyko had a 75% sale on certain brands, without having previously tested anything from XL. And I can say that I just love this shampoo! Good size of the bottle first and foremost, 400 ml is it, and I have seen that there are even larger ones (and I understand why!). However, these 400 ml last much longer than with most other shampoos, because it is concentrated! I can get by with about half the amount that I usually use, which I really like. The shampoo is transparent. It has a faint scent and a slightly cooling feel. It lathers up well, that’s where you feel that it is concentrated. The hair doesn’t feel overly rough after I’ve rinsed out the product, but of course, conditioner is a must. I’m not a shampoo luxury user or what you would call it, I usually don’t spend a lot in that category even though I don’t buy the absolute cheapest options. I have long, straight, typical Scandinavian hair with a sensitive scalp. This shampoo hasn’t caused any issues with my scalp, but since I currently don’t have any problems there, I can’t say that it has done anything positive either. But I really like the cooling sensation that I mentioned earlier, it makes me want to stand and focus on my scalp when I massage in the shampoo. I always use one of those rubber things with spikes for the scalp, which is also one of my best hair hacks 🥰 I think this shampoo is worth its price, because you can just FEEL that it is quality, I think. I like everything about it and I would absolutely consider buying it again. 4.5 stars, rounded up 😊 #lykoreview #xl #schampo #grazette1 product in post A Really Nice Shampoo!759 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Easy as a pancake!
As #lykoinflutester, I had the opportunity to test this eye makeup remover along with Lyko's micellar water Clean Queen. I have thus used them together to remove my makeup, the micellar water on my face and this on my eyes. I wear makeup almost daily, and relatively a lot (I think), so the product has been put to the test properly... and I am surprisingly satisfied! This is not a type of product that I usually use so often, I have a bottle of a similar type of product standing at home for when I use waterproof mascara, but otherwise I usually use oil cleansing. So at first I was a bit skeptical and unsure, but when I finally tried it, my reaction was the same as with the micellar water: oh how easy it is! I shake the bottle, pour some onto a cotton pad, and hold it against my eye for a little while to let the mascara start to dissolve. Most of the makeup then comes off in a single swipe, the mascara you have to work a little on, but that's nothing unusual. This remover is at least twice as good as the one from Essence that I had previously. I appreciate that it feels like a gentler way to remove makeup from the lashes compared to the rubbing that happens when you wash your face as usual. My skin feels completely fresh afterward, neither sticky nor oily or anything, possibly a little moisturized. You also don't need to rinse off this product, very convenient. I haven't experienced a hint of irritation from using it, even though I have very sensitive skin, especially around the eyes as I often have a bit of eczema there. It is completely fragrance-free, which we love, and it also comes in a bottle with a lovely pink color that pops in the bathroom. Honestly, I can't think of anything negative to say about it 🙂↔️, and next time I need a new eye makeup remover, I now know which one I will choose! Hint: it is NOT the one from Essence 😄 #lykoinflutester #bylyko #makeupremover1 product in post Easy as a pancake!109 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.
