    Difficult to work with and annoying scent

    I am not a professional at self-tanning. Usually, I use the same foam that I have used for many years. That’s why it was extra fun to be a test pilot for this product in hopes of finding a new favorite. Unfortunately, it did not live up to my expectations. I had a bit of trouble navigating the spray and found that my first attempts were uneven and gave an almost striped result. However, it was possible to get past that with a little practice. What I could not get past, however, was the scent. I agree with other comments that say the scent almost reminds me of what is used to mask bad odors in public restrooms. It is very sharp and pungent, which is a shame because after a bit of a learning curve, the result was nice, but unfortunately, it does not outweigh the horrible scent.

      Hey Sarah😊 Thanks for sharing your experience 🤍 How fun that you were chosen to test, that you gave the product a chance, and got a nice result after a little practice! It's a shame that the scent didn't suit you - scent is really something very individual, and it's not always easy to find a self-tanner that both smells good and is easy to apply. Your feedback is valuable and helps others know what to expect. Here’s a tip for a personal favorite at a really good price right now: lyko.com/sv/loving-tan/loving-tan-bronzing-mousse-medium-120-ml I hope my answer can be helpful and that you have a super nice day❄️

    horrible scent!

    I have tested the product now several times and my experience is that there is a lot of good to say, but the scent really brings down the score. It is easy to apply thin, even layers and build up for more coverage, therefore I would absolutely recommend it to beginners. However, you have to hold your breath the whole time because I found that it had such a strong scent that it really stung in my whole nose during use. Maybe it’s better to sit in front of a fan at the same time, but I’m afraid it would then leave stains all over the apartment. If the product had been scent-free, it would probably have gotten 5/5 from me, but the scent is so incredibly strong that it significantly lowers the rating!

    really good but a bit drying

    I have tested this for a couple of weeks now, and at first, it worked well. The consistency is nice, and it absorbs into the skin quite quickly, although it can be a bit sticky for a while afterward. I generally am not particularly fond of scented skincare products, but this one has a mild scent that didn't bother me too much at least. However, I encountered problems when I used the serum both morning and night. I have combination skin and usually get very dry in the winter, and I found that not only did the serum cling to the dry areas and become extra sticky there, but I also felt that I became drier with usage twice a day. When I then tried using the serum once a day, I didn't have the same problems at all. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.

    not for me

    I have had the opportunity to test these products as part of a test panel. For a couple of weeks now, I have tested these two products, both together and separately. The glow boosting fluid was quite good. It has a scent, which I do not like in skincare, and a slight tint that does not suit all skin tones. For me, it was somewhat orange, so I would not recommend it to anyone very pale with a cool skin tone like mine. Otherwise, it served its purpose. However, I did not like the glow boost serum at all. It has a significantly stronger scent and is not recommended for people with a sensitive nose. The serum also gave me tiny, bumpy pimples on all areas of application regardless of the amount used. For that reason, the serum was not at all for me. The review was conducted on behalf of Smartson - the test pilot was allowed to try the product for free.

      Hey Sarah😊 Thank you for sharing your experience so honestly🤍 It's great that you liked the Glow Boosting Fluid and that it gave you glow, even though the color and scent weren't quite right for you. At the same time, I understand that you didn't enjoy the Glow Boost Serum – the stronger scent can definitely irritate sensitive noses, and perfume in skincare is a common culprit when the skin reacts. It's also unfortunate that you got bumpy breakouts, which indicates that the formula (or an ingredient in it) wasn't optimal for you. So fun regardless that you were chosen as a tester, and thank you for sharing, your feedback is super helpful for us and others! Wishing you a lovely day❄️

    Honest review of the serum as a test product

    I had the honor of testing the Kérastase Première Sérum Filler Fondamental Hair Serum for free. My first thought was that the container and packaging exude quality. The bottle feels sturdy and looks nice, which is great so you don’t have to hide all your products in a cabinet. The consistency felt lovely, and upon application, my hair felt wonderful, but unfortunately, that’s where my positive feedback ends. The serum was really not for me unfortunately. It has a very strong scent that is quite masculine, which was not at all a favorite of mine. Furthermore, I experienced that the serum had negative effects on my hair. I have thin and fine hair with waves/curls, and even though the serum is supposed to be for all hair types and combat frizz, I just got more frizz and the texture of my hair flattened out, which made my hair look damaged. I didn’t get shine, softness, or reduced frizz, unfortunately. Unfortunately, I think a serum in this price range should hold a higher standard, therefore I was extremely disappointed with the result, even though I tested the serum several times with different amounts of product each time. Now I just hope that my waves/curls return if I stop using the serum 💔 I am participating in a test panel and received a free test product.
