    High hopes

    So incredibly sad to have to leave a review when you had such high expectations. All the other products I've tried from this brand have been fantastic! But this one didn't meet the mark, the guide for choosing the right color is always hard when you're dark, it often pulls towards the light side or in this case, towards the dark side. I also tried wearing it on my face at home for a few hours but also realized that it caused small pimples, not great. I would say my skin has been pretty calm without acne breakouts for the past year so I was surprised to get pimples from this so easily. I also discovered that it wasn't particularly transferproof which resulted in my partner's clothes getting a dark stain that was hard to wash out. Giving this a 2/5 with a guess that it might suit other skin types better! Thanks to Lyko for this opportunity to test this as part of their test pilot [hashtag] [hashtag]

      Hey Ellen! 🤗 Thank you for sharing your honest experience with us! 💛 We truly understand how frustrating it is when a product doesn't live up to the high expectations – especially when you've had good experiences with the brand before. Skin is so individual, and sometimes products can react differently depending on your skin type. Thank you for mentioning both what worked and what didn't, it's valuable feedback for us and the manufacturer. That the product wasn't completely transferproof and caused small breakouts sounds really uncomfortable, and we regret that it turned out that way. We hope you find products that suit your skin better moving forward, and that we can help you with that! 💫 Your input helps us become even better, thank you so much for that! 🙏

    Clean without drying out

    📌Skin type - combination skin + acne-prone I got this gem from Lyko and have now tested it for a while. But since I was in the hospital for about 3 weeks, the review may not be entirely fair. That said, you still get my opinions! The packaging is sleek and easy to use, nice to have a sturdy lid so it doesn't risk leaking! It withstood some bumps and held up nicely! Mousse is an incredibly pleasant consistency to use on the skin, feels smooth and also lasts a long time. Being in a hospital environment means, whether as a patient or a worker, that you get ridiculously dry skin, so an important part of the routine is to use something that doesn't dry out. This mousse works fantastically, I never felt that tightness you can get after certain washes and I also thought my skin got a nice glow without leaving any greasy film. If you're sensitive to perfume, you might want to be a bit cautious, as this has perfume, but it smells very subtle. Results: I didn't use this every day as I had some days where I could barely open my eyes. Normally, I can tolerate almost all cleansers, but this time I broke out after maybe 4 weeks of use, whether it was due to the product or because I was in the hospital is a bit unclear. I have continued to use this product now that I am home and I still think the breakouts are starting to calm down, so hopefully it was the hospital stay that caused it. It's affordable, smells good, skin gets glowy, and the product is long-lasting🤩 I don't think you can ask for more from a cleanser! However, due to my uncertainty about the breakouts, this product gets 4/5. Thank you and sorry, Lyko! #LYKOINFLUTESTER #ACO

    Glow in a bottle🔥

    I have had the honor of testing ACO's vitamin C serum and must say that it is a good serum for both day and night. Easy to use and dries quickly with a radiant skin as a result. Packaging & Consistency The serum comes in a sleek and practical pump bottle that makes it easy to dose the right amount. However, it can be a downside that it is in glass if you are, for example, traveling or just want to take it with you, as it becomes extra fragile and extra weight. The consistency is light, and the skin really absorbs it right away! I would describe it as slightly thicker than water. Effect & Results After a few weeks of irregular use, I still think that my darker spots have lightened and are less visible, e.g., dark spots from previous acne scars. However, I have basically only used this product when I have been hospitalized and find it difficult to see any very clear results due to my health condition. However, the product deserves a gold star for helping my skin not to dry out completely from the hospital air. Despite a long hospitalization, I have not looked as tired and saggy as one easily does after many days of care. Suitable for: Dry and normal skin Tired and dull skin Anyone wanting extra glow and moisture People working in hospitals or other environments with dry air Conclusion I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a simple but effective boost in their skincare routine. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #ACO

    So satisfied!

    I got this from #LYKO to test and have now been testing it for about a month and actually feel like I notice results from the first wash! My hair is a bit below the collarbone and has been bleached and dyed several times, it easily gets tangled and worn. When I travel to Gotland, my hair usually becomes miserable due to the calcium, but I have tested it there and also in Uppsala, which is said to be calcium-rich, and my hair has stayed soft and fresh for several days! It smells like a salon and gives the hair new life! I am so incredibly satisfied. The catch is that the finances don't quite add up for me to buy this product, so the price brings down the rating. But you get what you pay for! #LYKOINFLUTESTER #KERASTASE

    Very unclear🤔

    Received this from #LYKO to review, and I honestly don’t know what I think. The product is super pretty, which definitely enhances the experience and feeling of a salon. The scent of the product is a bit more like toilet cleaner than the other products in the same series. But I actually don’t have much to say about the product since I haven’t even noticed that it does anything😅 Tried it with shampoo and then just used the shampoo, and I noticed no difference?? Feels a bit luxurious with serum beforehand, but I don’t know if I would want to spend so much money on a product that I don’t notice does anything? But a big thank you for the opportunity to try this product! It has been a pleasure! #KERASTASE

    Salon in a can

    Received this shampoo + the remaining products in the same series to review from #LYKO Stylish and sleek bottle with a pleasant but slightly strong scent. An incredibly economical product that I was actually positively surprised by. When you lather up the shampoo, it felt almost smooth! It was soft and lathered nicely, a little goes a long way. I have quite oily and itchy scalp, but I actually think this shampoo worked great, and it might actually have to do with the fact that there is some hardness in the water (in Uppsala and on Gotland). Previous washes left my hair greasy the same day, but now it has stayed fresh for about 5 days. A pretty expensive shampoo, so if you’re not into the price range, there are probably absolutely other products in a lower price range that can work. But if you have a lot of hardness and a slightly tighter wallet, I would still recommend this shampoo since the only downside is the price, which really drags down the rating as it is a bit too pricey for just a shampoo. Would I buy it again? Maybe, but I would need a raise for that to happen 😉 3/5✨

    Hair done by the hairdresser at home

    Received this beauty plus the remaining parts in the same series. My hair usually tends to look dull and get oily with a bit of an itchy scalp even though I shampoo twice. My hair also tends to get damaged easily despite using many products from more expensive brands. At first, the packaging is pretty and feels luxurious! It smells good but a bit too strong during use, however, the hair smells just right after washing and the scent actually lingered faintly for about 3 days. A bit unclear what the scent actually is, but it smells fresh and a bit salon-like. The product is normally runny, but it requires very little compared to, for example, cheaper alternatives. The hair feels instantly soft upon application and didn’t seem to affect my hair color either. The result was soft and manageable hair that really held its results until the next wash. (Can go about 5-6 days before washing) I had ALMOST bought it again, but the price really stings and brings down the overall rating. If I go back to live in, for example, Gotland, which has so much lime, I would probably actually choose to invest in this hair care series again. Solid 4 out of 5✨ Thanks for the opportunity to review this product #LYKO #LYKOINFLUTESTER #KERASTASE

    Sweet and effective

    Got these sweet patches to test from Lyko and it was way beyond expectations! However, I have only tested these 2 times on 1 pimple as I have actually been spared from getting so many. On the pimple I tested the patches on, it was a pimple that is deep under the skin. These patches are sweet and incredibly easy to use! Also convenient to just pop in your handbag. I usually find it hard to treat these pimples as they hurt and NEVER want to disappear, stubborn little things. I also tend to get a dark spot after trying to squeeze such pimples (not something I recommend). However, I highly recommend these for stubborn pimples! I really thought that despite the depth of this pimple, these patches absorbed some of the contents from the pimple (without making a hole in it). Nothing "waow" just on such a pimple, but that it at least reduced in redness and size, I thought was fantastic! Used it for two nights and think it got smaller with each use. Unfortunately, it’s time to review today and therefore I can’t fully evaluate the effect, but I really believe it will do wonders! Warning for a bit of gross picture of what the patch absorbed the first night! Also warning for picture of pimple🤲 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #PEGGYWORLD

    Cheap and good🤩

    Cute packaging, really gives the impression of a product for younger teenagers🤹‍♀️ For me, who might be liiittle older, it might not be what I would choose at first glance, but luckily the content is the most important! My experience with this product is that the consistency was nice and felt economical! Very thick serum so you need very little. It has no scent, which my skin seemed to appreciate. 🥹 The packaging itself might not be the most convenient, as there is no "stop", so if you are a bit clumsy like me and happen to knock over the bottle, it spills out🤦‍♀️ Determining the results of just hyaluronic acid feels a bit difficult, so the single product does not provide "noticeable" results. At least not for me. I thought the product was good in combination with a proper and quite rich face cream on top of the layer of hyaluronic acid. But when I didn’t have enough face cream on, my skin became jæææææææætte dry. Drier than if I hadn’t used the product. However, the product leaves no film, which feels super nice as I have experienced that other comparable serums often leave one.🤩 With regular use, I think the product did its job okay in combination with another face cream. But I don’t experience any "wow effect". For the price and for what it does, I would recommend this to someone who might be new to skincare or just wants to try something a little simpler and gentler on the skin. 5/10🤩 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #LYKO
