    Okay, but no more

    I’m also one of those who has fallen for the hype around Estrid, so I wanted to try it. I’ve never had problems with "razor bumps" or ingrown hairs before, but something happened when I turned 35, suddenly my skin became super sensitive - especially the bikini line, and I could no longer use disposable razors like I always had before with great results, so instead I’ve been using Gillette for men, and that’s the only thing that works for me now. But they do look a bit boring, so I bought this one to test, and the rating was - mjaaa. Totally okay, but absolutely not worth the hype. I tried it yesterday as soon as it arrived, and the bikini line was first up. The result was totally okay, not at all as silky smooth and clean-shaven as, for example, men’s razor blades give. I also got some razor bumps (despite proper prep both before and after). Today I shaved my legs and underarms, and already after the legs and bikini line, the "soap" around the blade was gone, and it didn’t glide as well on the skin anymore. So the razor head seems to handle one round of body shaving (legs, bikini line, and armpits) before it needs to be replaced, and then it suddenly becomes an expensive story. The result was unfortunately not impressive either... If you want a nicer razor in the bathroom and don’t shave often, this one absolutely works, but I will go back to Gillette for men since it both shaves better and lasts longer.

    Smells like an old lady

    No, this was not for me. I thought it would smell like vanilla according to the description, but it smells like an old, musty lady perfume. I rarely have issues with scents and perfumes that might not smell that good, but this was awful, I couldn't stand the smell so I had to jump in the shower to wash it off. It smells like an old lotion that has expired, that's the best way I can describe the scent. Not for me!

      Hey Annelie! 🥰 Old lady perfume might not be exactly what you want, and it was really unfortunate that there wasn't a high-end scent for you! It can be a bit tricky with scents, but I hope you have a tried-and-true fragrance from before that you can go back to, or you can try smelling in a store if you want to look for something else ✨ Thank you for taking the time to write a review 💖

    Fresh

    I bought this without having smelled it, only went by the description and reviews. Smells very good but a bit heavier than I thought - I was expecting a more light youthful scent. But since I am a person who likes a lot of scent, heavy perfumes, it still appealed to me. A four because I maybe wished for a bit more. Smells good as mentioned but doesn't stand out from "the other" scents on the market, hence a four. But a strong four.

    No difference

    I have now tested this color on two different occasions and can honestly say that it makes ZERO difference. I bleach my roots at home about 3 times a year and always finished with Mood Pearl Blonde before - it was perfect! But unfortunately, that color is no longer available, so I have been searching high and low for a similar color / toner. I found this last summer and tried to apply it to my roots after bleaching (the roots turned yellow as expected after bleaching). NOTHING happened, so I thought I might have done something wrong, it should only be on for 5 minutes, so there’s not much room for error. I had to buy another toner at that time that wasn’t as good as Moods but definitely better than this. Now it was time to dye my roots again, so I started with bleaching and thought I would give this another chance, but this time test leaving the color on longer than what it says. Said and done, but again - NO difference. So really none. Totally wasted money. So I do not recommend anyone to buy this toner. Completely worthless.

      Hi Annelie! 👋🏼 Thank you for sharing your experience! I really understand that it’s frustrating when a product doesn’t give the results you expect, especially when you’ve previously had a toner that worked perfectly for you 🤍 Préférence Le Blonding Toner is a mild toner that primarily neutralizes unwanted warm tones in light blonde hair, but it doesn’t have the same pigment strength as Mood Pärlblond. Since your regrowth turns yellow after bleaching, you probably need a more intense toner to achieve the right shade 🤗 I would recommend trying Schwarzkopf Igora Vibrance 9.5-1, which is cool and more pigmented. They should give you a similar effect to what Mood Pärlblond provided before. lyko.com/sv/schwarzkopf-professional/schwarzkopf-professional-igora-vibrance-95-1-cendre-toner Hope this helps you 💛✨
