    Good volume spray but no dry shampoo

    I have tested the L'Oréal Paris Elvital Collagen Lifter Refreshing Volume Spray for a couple of weeks. According to the description, it should be a spray that gives volume but also freshens up the hair between washes and works as a dry shampoo. I find that my hair, which is typically thin and fine Scandinavian hair, gets better volume with it. It holds well throughout the day. When it comes to the dry shampoo effect, it leaves a bit to be desired. I don't feel that it freshens up the hair very much. It becomes more of a slightly stiff feeling. So for volume, it works well, but less so as a dry shampoo. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.

    Conditioner that adds shine

    I have been testing the L'Oréal Paris Elvital Collagen Lifter Conditioner for a couple of weeks, along with their shampoo from the same line. The conditioner does its job as a conditioner, meaning it detangles, removes frizz, and gives a shiny result. However, I don't experience any direct volume from it. My hair is thin and fine Scandinavian treated hair, which could use something with even more volume. The scent is subtle, and the consistency is a bit gel-like. But definitely a good conditioner in that price category. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot has been able to try the product for free.

    Good shampoo for the price

    I have tested the L'Oréal Paris Elvital Collagen Lifter Shampoo for a couple of weeks. The shampoo cleans well and feels quite economical and lathers nicely. The scent is pleasant, not too strong. After washing, my hair feels shiny and soft, but I don't experience any direct volume. My hair is typically thin and fine Scandinavian hair. It is still a cost-effective option even though it doesn't give me any volume. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.

    Ok eye serum

    L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Filler 2.5% Hyaluronic Acid Eye Serum is a pretty okay eye serum with moisture. In the right amount, it hydrates nicely, but if you take a little too much of the serum, it can get sticky and has a hard time absorbing. It’s easier to get the serum to absorb if you gently pat it in with your fingertips. The serum comes in a nice glass bottle. You apply the eye serum with the included applicator with cool rolling metal balls. This makes it feel more refreshing and gives a lovely sensation. Sometimes I have experienced that the serum rolls on the skin together with eye cream. I have tried it with different eye creams and unfortunately got the same result. Therefore, it is extra difficult to use the eye serum under makeup, so I prefer to use it at night.

    Good Moisturizing Serum

    L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Filler 1.5% Hyaluronic Acid Serum is a good moisturizing serum. The serum comes in a luxurious glass bottle with a dropper that works well. You get just the right amount of serum. However, the serum is a bit thin in consistency, so it drips easily from the dropper without you pressing it. I would have preferred a slightly thicker consistency for the serum. The serum hydrates well and absorbs relatively quickly into the skin. I feel my skin is hydrated throughout the day, and it gives a plump and nice feeling. The serum has a faint pleasant scent that doesn't bother me. My skin has not reacted negatively to the serum and has tolerated it well. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.

    Good Day Cream

    L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Filler Day Cream is a lovely and pleasant day cream that sinks in quickly. It moisturizes well, and the skin feels plump and nice even though it absorbs quickly. The cream has a pleasant and fresh scent. My skin has not reacted negatively to the day cream, even though I can sometimes have a bit of sensitive skin and this contains fragrance. The cream comes in a nice and heavy jar that still feels luxurious. The downside of the day cream is that it rolls on the skin, even though I let the serum sink in well before applying the day cream. I find that the cream absorbs relatively quickly but still rolls on the skin. So unfortunately, I will not buy the cream again.

    A pretty okay night cream

    I got to try L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Filler Night Cream. It's quite a rich night cream, but it's only good for the night now that it's cold and chilly and the skin is drier. So at least my skin needs more moisture and fat right now to not feel tight. It takes a while for the cream to sink in, so it's a downside not to do your skincare routine right before going to bed. The night cream has a lovely consistency and a pleasant scent, but it's not for those who want something fragrance-free. My skin hasn't reacted negatively to the cream, but it moisturizes well. The downside, however, is that it easily rolls on the skin, even if I let the serum dry in properly and don't take too much. I've used the night cream over L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Filler 1.5% Hyaluronic Acid serum, so they should be products that work together without rolling.

    A good everyday mascara

    L'Oréal Paris Telescopic Extensionist Mascara is a good everyday mascara but doesn't quite reach the top. It provides good length and darkness to the lashes and separates them nicely, but it doesn't build as much volume as I wish. This is of course a personal opinion on what result one desires. The mascara is buildable and it's easy to apply more layers without it clumping. It has good longevity on the lashes, doesn't flake, and doesn't settle under the eyes, even though I've had it on for over 12 hours. It holds well as a waterproof mascara despite watery eyes. The mascara washes off relatively easily but stings a bit in the eyes when washing. In summary, a good everyday mascara that lengthens and separates the lashes nicely and holds up well against weather and wind. But if you want more dramatic volume, you'll need to invest in another mascara. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.

    Pretty okay brow product

    I got to test L'Oréal Paris Infaillible Faux Brow in the shade blonde. It's easy to fill in the brows, they instantly get a lot of color and they look a bit fuller. However, not as good fullness as I get with a brow gel with fibers in it. There is quite a bit of pigment in this brow product but easy to blend out if it comes outside the lines. Unfortunately, the shade doesn't quite suit me as there is a lot of red pigment in the shade blonde. I would have preferred it to be more blonde than reddish. Overall a good brow product and I can consider testing it again, though in a different shade. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot got to try the product for free.

However, not as much fullness as I get with a brow gel with fibers in it. There is quite a bit of pigment in this brow product but easy to smudge if it goes outside the lines. Unfortunately, the shade doesn't quite match me as there is a lot of red pigment in the shade blonde. I would have preferred it to be more blonde than reddish. Overall a good brow product and I can see myself trying it again, just in a different shade. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot got to try the product for free.
