Do I dare stop using it?
🌙 First night I’m very cautious with heavier products that feel dense and was skeptical the first night I applied this. I agreed with myself to stop immediately if my skin showed the slightest sign of rash or acne. I have sensitive skin and my routine has been working so well lately that a disruption was the last thing I wanted. 📅 One month later Now I’ve used the product throughout the entire test period and it has worked excellently, even though it contains oils and I’m generally oil-sensitive. Now I wonder instead if I dare stop using it? We’ll see… ✨ The result My skin (40+) has been absolutely radiant the past month. I already thought before the test month that I had found my perfect skincare routine and that this might disrupt it – but the skin actually got even better. I don’t think I’ve ever had skin this good before (if you exclude age as a variable). No redness, no bumps, not too oily, not too dry. 📦 The packaging And the packaging! I love that it’s a hygienic type of openable jar! You probably don’t need to open it fully until the very end, and I’m not there yet. 🧴 Consistency and use The cream feels quite rich, almost “blue Nivea-jar rich” (for those who get the reference), but it hasn’t clogged my skin at all. I’ve used the cream as the last step after toner and serum, and it has sealed everything nicely. The cream is too rich for me to use during the day, so in the morning I wash my face and use lighter products. But I think it’s worked well overnight. ⭐ Review The rating then? I really like it, as it has worked very well and I experience my skin as – just as promised – plumped. The packaging is a appreciated bonus. What I don’t like is the price. I think I can probably get a good sealing cream for a significantly lower price. But which one…? And will a lower-priced product give the same good results? Those are things I have to think about. There’s still a lot left (it’s economical). ➕ Plus • Didn’t clog, despite rich texture and oils • Seals toner and serum nicely • Hygienic packaging • Economical ➖ Minus • The price • Too rich to use during the day (for me with normal/oily skin) #lykoinflutester #paulaschoice1 product in post Do I dare stop using it?267 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

From “oh no” to “aha!”
💋 First impression When I first put on this lip gloss care product, I thought “oh no,” but shortly after it became “aha!” 😖 Sticky lips, my fear I hate lip products that are sticky. I have baby fine hairs all over my face, and there are always some hairs that break free and flutter around. If I have sticky lips, the hairs stick to them like glue – and I hate that feeling so much that it tingles all over my body just thinking about it. IT TINGLES! Horrible feeling! That’s why I almost passionately hate sticky lips. ✨ But not this one But this product isn’t like that – the lips are only sticky for a short time after application. After that, they’re just moisturized and soft. And not so much that you feel it on the lips themselves. Because if you do, I’m constantly smacking and rubbing my lips together. I’m hopeless that way. But these give just enough moisture to still feel natural. I really like that. In fact, I’ve never before tried a lip gloss that has stayed so well on my scale. I usually go with bare lips or something matte (but that’s rare). But I carried this around in my pocket and on my lips constantly. 👄 Look and applicator The lips don’t get super shiny. They don’t get plump or extra pouty. They just look healthy and well cared for. The color is barely noticeable on me; it just deepens the color I already have. I also like the applicator. I like that it’s slanted, and that it’s easy to wipe off. 💸 The price Unfortunately, I misplaced the product when just over half the test period had passed. I’ve missed it ever since. Immediately I thought I had to buy a new one. And here’s the only downside of the product – the price. If it had cost less, I wouldn’t hesitate, but now it’s unfortunately at a level where I might buy it on sale. In my opinion, it costs about 100 kronor too much. 🍦 The scent Maybe I should say something about the scent too. It smells strongly of good vanilla. I don’t know why lip products have to be a whole aromatherapy? But maybe we like that? Because yes, I like the nice scent, but for me, I would gladly do without it for a more natural feel. ➕ Plus • Sticky only a short time after application • Just the right amount of moisture, feels natural • Lips look healthy and well cared for • Slanted applicator that’s easy to wipe off ➖ Minus • The price, about 100 kronor too much • Strong vanilla scent, even though it’s nice #lykoinflutester #paulaschoice1 product in post From “oh no” to “aha!”15 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Never fails, despite shiny like a brushed wheat bun
I love Purito's centella products. As soon as I get the slightest problem, I turn to them and the problems stop immediately. One might wonder why I even use anything else.? Probably because I seek excitement in life. I get very good associations with Purito's green packaging. As soon as I start to get a pimple, swollen and red, as soon as I feel tingling and irritation, I only apply Purito's green Centella (I own several in the series) and within two days everything is calm again. Always. They never _fail_. This soothing cream is absolutely wonderful. But I simply can't use it during the day. I look like a wheat bun brushed with egg white. But at night, mm, it just feels good to let the face reflect the candlelight's glow. I LOVE Purito's green! I love the soothing cream! My skin? Soft, pale, thin, and sensitive. 40+ years.1 product in post Never fails, despite shiny like a brushed wheat bun899 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The post was made 2 monthsRating: 5 out of 5
So lovely and best
Ever since I started using this facial toner, my skin has felt so much better. It’s clearer, softer, more hydrated, and my small breakouts/blemishes/pimples have decreased. I don’t know how I ended up with this particular facial toner. Strangely, I’ve never really used facial toner before (at least not the right way, like dabbing it on before all other skincare), but since I have several other products from Purito and have sensitive skin, I landed on this one. I don’t regret it. It suits my skin SO well. It’s extremely watery. I had a bit of trouble with that at first, not used to it. But I take a little in my palm and pat it all over my face plus neck. It absorbs very quickly and leaves a nice feeling afterwards. My skin 👄 I’m 41 years old, have thin soft skin that easily gets red, and I also easily get breakouts around my mouth/nose.1 product in post So lovely and best506 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

A way to complicate things
I'm not completely inexperienced when it comes to patches – I've used both full masks and spot patches before. But I still had to start this experience from #xlash by figuring out which patches should go where. The first two were easy enough, but the third, shaped like a licorice boat, took a bit more thought. I concluded that it's for the folds by the mouth (something I don't really have for anatomical reasons). ℹ️ About my skin: I'm 40+ and have soft, thin, and sensitive skin. The packaging it arrived in is quite large and beautifully purple. Under the lid is an extra protective cover with a spoon you can use to pick up the patches for hygienic reasons. The patches are fragrance-free and, in my opinion, made of a nice material, a bit checkered in texture, and I like how they stick well (without sliding), without being too dry. What’s a bit trickier for me is that they fit the face poorly. If I put it on the forehead so it covers the "frown lines" well, it ends up over the eyebrows. I don't like that, so I have to place it a bit higher than what "feels right." And regarding the ones under the eyes, I get the feeling they don't sit exactly as I want them to, so they cover both the wrinkles at the sides of the eyes and those underneath. Maybe these are made for a face with slightly different proportions. It seems reasonable that not everyone has the same measurements. But personally, I don't feel like they sit right on the face no matter how much I try to adjust them. Personally, I would have preferred to have only under-eye patches and then patches of a more neutral shape that you could place wherever you think fits. 👄 The result then? They moisturize, and there is a difference. But the result is not better than my usual skincare. I also think they leave an uncomfortable sticky feeling afterward that stays on the skin. The luxury feeling is missing because, for me, they have such a poor fit. So I mostly think these patches are a way to complicate things. ✨ Plus - Fragrance-free - Nice material, slightly checkered texture - Sticks well to the skin almost immediately, doesn’t slide - Provides visible hydration 🫤 Minus - The forehead patch, in my opinion, doesn’t sit well over the "frown lines" without ending up over the eyebrows - Generally feels made for a different face/different proportions - The result is not better than a regular skincare routine - The moisture left over when you remove it is unpleasant, doesn’t absorb by itself, so I had to dab it off with paper. #lykoinflutester1 product in post A way to complicate things35 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

My all time favorite!!!
If I could choose only one makeup product to use for the rest of my life, I would choose this one. It is simply the best. I got it as a sample once about 10-15 years ago, and since then I've been hooked. There is nothing to compare it to. It is nourishing, it applies nicely and naturally, and it brightens up my natural skin tone, which I think has a bit of olive in it, even though I am so pale. It is only lightly covering but because it gives my natural skin tone such a nice complement, it feels much more covering than it actually is. No, but seriously. This is my number one. This is my favorite. This is the product I hold on to the most.1 product in post My all time favorite!!!2513 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Wins in airflow, loses in moisture
I have as #lykoinflutester gotten to test this conditioner from #björnaxen, which pleased me, as I think their dry shampoo is the best (I prefer not to use anything else). These are the first products from them (I have tested several in the series) that I use that are not mentioned dry shampoo. My hair 🧬 It is smooth, narrow, and fine Scandinavian hair. The hair is untreated and hard to style. Products tend to sit on top or slide off it. I really never need to brush my hair. First impression 🌸 This conditioner smells wonderful! Exactly what it smells like is hard to put a finger on. It might be floral, with a bit of spice? It is definitely not just sweet, but it has something extra. Usage 🚿 I have tried both putting the conditioner in all my hair and just on the lengths. If I put it in all my hair and blow-dry afterwards, my hair doesn’t get greasy for several days (but then I have to blow-dry along the part). If I don’t feel like blow-drying, I just put it on the lengths. Result ✨ Afterwards, my hair feels clean and airy. Some conditioners make my hair feel weighed down and greasy, or like a film, especially conditioners that are supposed to “give nourishment” or “shine.” This conditioner promises volume and cleansing, and it certainly delivers! Although volume might be a strong expression. “A certain lift” I would rather say. Moisture 🌾 But what you gain in airflow, you lose in moisture. I don’t think the conditioner in question moisturizes the hair particularly well. I let it sit in extra long, or I choose to complement it with some lighter hair mask. Otherwise, my hair feels dry and the ends feel slightly straw-like. Overall impression ⭐ This is a conditioner with a good scent that contributes to clean and airy hair that has swing potential (which is good). What is less good is that it is not particularly moisturizing.1 product in post Wins in airflow, loses in moisture - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Clean and airy
My hair 🧬 I received this shampoo in the role of #lykoinflutester, which made me happy since my hair is among the least voluminous hair in the whole area. My hair is Scandinavian glass fiber, with many, many fine strands. I don't have any major lack of strands, yet my hair is quite "thin". First impression 💛 The first impression of the product itself was the scent – it smells lovely! My 20-year-old daughter, who was present when I opened the package, turned her head and said "mmm" (that's a good scent sign). The lather 🫧 My second impression is that it doesn't lather much, but it becomes more of a rather compact lather. So: there isn't big foam all over the hair, but fine lather right where I massage with my fingers, in just the right amount according to me. Appreciated! The result in the hair 🌬️ The feeling afterwards, whether I blow-dry or not, is that the hair feels clean and airy. Volume I don't know – only if I style it (with more than just blow-drying). But the fact that the hair feels airy afterwards is a very good starting point. One problem I often have is that products sit on the strands, weigh them down, and feel sticky. This is not a problem with this shampoo. As mentioned, the hair feels clean and airy. Disadvantages 🌾 One disadvantage is that the hair tends to go a bit dry, especially the ends in my case. But I have been able to compensate for that with other products, and I have let the conditioner work a bit longer in the lengths. Overall impression ⭐ I like the shampoo the most of all in this series. It cleanses, makes the hair feel airy, it smells good, and also feels economical (doesn't need much product). A downside is that the hair tends to go a bit dry, but that can vary if I don't use it so much on the lengths and let the conditioner work a bit longer. #björnaxen1 product in post Clean and airy406 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Lets the hair be light
I have fine, airy Scandinavian hair that somehow behaves like fiberglass – color and products tend to slide off or sit on top of the strands. This product lets the hair maintain its lightness while actually giving a little feeling of volume. It’s exactly the type of products that usually work best for me: ones that don’t weigh down, but let the hair be airy and light – but in a more defined way. I use it by spraying a few times from about 30 cm away on towel-dried hair. It gives no hold or control, so I’ve complemented it with a heat protectant that combats static hair. In one picture, I let my hair air dry, and in the other, I styled it. Just like the other products in the line, it smells really good, although the scent unfortunately fades quite quickly. #lykoinflutester #bjornaxen1 product in post Lets the hair be light1209 views
