Good, but way too strong scent!
About my hair: Basically, I have medium brown/dark brown hair. So when I started getting āgray hairā about 15 years ago, they are quite visible compared to my dark hair. And of course, there are more and more of these gray hairs. š©š So the solution to make these not visible was to dye my hair. Besides dyed hair, my hair is dry and curly. I had previously hardly any experience with Kevin Murphy's hair products, other than having tried maxi wash in mini format. I thought that the special appearance and how the bottles were designed could be a problem. But not! Even though the cap is at the bottom, it doesn't spill out uncontrollably, which I had an idea it might do. š So absolutely, good and handy bottle. The conditioner has a thick and good consistency for hair like mine, which is dry & treated. However, I need to use a lot of product for it to be sufficient. But that is standard for my hair. So nothing that makes me need to use more of Kevin Murphy than other products. Unfortunately, the conditioner has no good scent. It smells way too strong. But I have also partially damaged my sense of smell due to covid-19, which makes some ingredients in products smell very chemical. So how I perceive the scent of the product does not mean that everyone else experiences the scent āequally badlyā. The main property of the conditioner should be color preserving. So, I can't see that this conditioner is more color preserving than others I use. I usually use hair products that work with āhydrateā, as I have dry hair. Sometimes I buy for colored hair. So no, I see no difference. But then I dye the roots every three weeks. So the color probably never gets a chance to be āreally washed outā? I usually wash my hair about 3 times/week. So, in summary: good product for my dry hair, even though the main āgoalā of the conditioner is to be color preserving, and not hydrate. Unfortunately too strong scent, which makes me not see the conditioner as my first choice when I buy conditioner again. I hesitated between giving it three and four stars. But it lands on four stars. But a so-called āweak fourā. š #LYKOINFLUTESTER #KEVINMURPHY1 product in post Good, but way too strong scent!47 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Smells really like honey!! šÆ
This hair oil really smells like honey, a really nice scent in my opinion, though I might not feel any of the other scent notes that are promised. The scent also lasts very long in the hair, which I personally appreciate, and I could even smell it the next day. The oil itself has a very nice consistency that is easy to distribute in the hair. I have thick, long, and dry hair, and I think it absorbed very well both in dry and freshly washed hair. An extra plus for the glass bottle and the dropper, which I think work very well for this oil. #lykoinflutester #hairsyrup1 product in post Smells really like honey!! šÆ39 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Superfine Shine
I got to #lykoinflutester test this gloss coat from #marianila. It really adds shine to the hair! I thought it might weigh down my typically Scandinavian hair with fine, thin strands, but I don't think it does. The bottle is super pretty, and with its pink spring-like appearance, I think it would fit perfectly in an Easter egg. The scent is lovely and smells a bit like candy. It's not a strong scent, but it disappears quickly. It's super easy to apply as well. I love that it contains heat protection. All styling products should do that. I actually have only good things to say about it. Go Maria Nila!1 product in post Superfine Shine64 views - The post was made 21 hoursRating: 4 out of 5Verifierad testare
Suitable for thin hair
š„I have been testing this bond builder for a few weeks now, a new product from Maria Nila! It is especially for you if you have damaged and chemically treated hair. šAbout my hair: My hair is typically Scandinavian, somewhat thin, "smooth" and a bit dry. šThis is said to repair, protect, and strengthen the hair from within. It should also prevent hair strands from breaking. A big advantage is that it also contains heat protection up to 230 degrees, which means you don't need a separate heat protectant! 100% vegan but contains silicones. šI like the design of the bottle, a mix of luxury and playfulness. However, if I have to be a bit picky, I think the pump is a bit too slow/hard. I appreciate the scent, it smells quite strong at first but fades relatively quickly. If you are sensitive to scents, it might be a bit too strong for you. š¤I have mostly used this in damp hair, as I don't think it works as well in dry styled hair. The hair then becomes too wet and weighs down volume and curls. āļøBut using it before blow-drying works quite well for me! Since my hair completely lacks structure on its own, I really need help with volume. It gives a certain structure but still manages to maintain the softness of my hair, which I really appreciate. However, I would have wished for even more structure. The hair becomes shiny, fresh, and looks very healthy and nice. š¤·For thicker hair, I am unsure if it is optimal, but it will be interesting to read others' reviews with a different hair type than mine! #lykoinflutester #marianila1 product in post Suitable for thin hair - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Good durability!
Ohhh, I was so looking forward to trying this! And it was good, but it doesn't quite make it all the way.. I used the shade 2N1, which matched my skin tone well, and I haven't experienced it oxidizing throughout the day. I have a bit of rosacea and didn't find that it negatively affected my skin condition, however, I added a little extra on the areas where I am most red. It's thin and light, but I still feel like it looks a bit heavy, especially if you want to powder a little on oily areas (I didn't powder in the pictures). The durability is really good though, it couldn't be washed off with micellar water š it would be interesting to do a sweat test.. I would prefer to use this for nights out, for example, but for my taste, it's too heavy for everyday use. I would say it has a satin finish. It settles a bit unattractively around my nose, I think, and I feel like you need to be well-moisturized before applying the product, so that wrinkles aren't emphasized more. I don't like that a pump isn't included, it's incredibly cumbersome and messy without it, and when the product already has a high price, it feels annoying to have to buy a pump.. nah, please bring the pumps back, dear EsteĆ© Lauder šš„ŗ So, is it worth the price then? Hmm, maybe. It would be for the durability in that case! š I would have given it 4 stars if it came with a pump! š #lykoinflutester #esteĆ©lauder1 product in post Good durability!119 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Shade Meet-Cute
š¤ The blush comes in a very interesting and practical packaging, really good for precise application. However, the packaging is quite small, and the shade I have requires using a fair amount of product to achieve the desired color, so I assume it would run out quickly. š¤ My skin tone is neutral with a slight olive undertone, and the shade Meet-Cute is barely visible on my skin. However, it does give a very natural look and a healthy looking glow. š¤ The blush is very lightweight, dewy, and easy to blend. š¤ Overall, it's a practical product that gives a natural, glowy look, but next time I would choose a deeper shade that suits my skin tone better. #lykoinflutester #esteelauder1 product in post Shade Meet-Cute - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

3C0 Cool Creme
š¤ The foundation comes in a beautiful, elegant glass bottle, but for some reason it doesn't have a pump or any kind of dispenser, so you have to pour it out first, which is quite impractical. š¤ It has a very pleasant scent. I'd say it has medium to high coverage, yet it doesn't feel heavy on the skin and gives a beautiful glow. š¤ My skin is quite oily and tends to get shiny after some time. I have a neutral undertone. I think it looks good and holds well on oily skin as well. š¤ What I really love about this foundation is the glow it gives to the skin and how well it blends and brings all the other products together. It melts beautifully into the skin and works especially well with cream blush and bronzer. š¤ It applies nicely with both a brush and fingers. š¤ I don't wear foundation very often and I haven't tried the older version of this one, but I'm very happy with how it looks on my skin and how it performs with other products. It truly takes the whole look to the next level. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #ESTEELAUDER1 product in post 3C0 Cool Creme - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Shade 2N
š¤ My skin tone is neutral with dark under-eyes. The shade I use is 2N, and it works well, it covers dark blue areas nicely.āØHowever, for me personally, it's slightly on the lighter side. I could probably go one shade darker so it blends better with the darker tone under my eyes. š¤ I would say this concealer has a good coverage. It's not very hydrating, but it also doesn't dry out the skin. However, if your skin is already dry, that dryness will be noticeable once you apply the concealer, especially under the eyes š¤ It doesn't crease as much, but as said, it can emphasize dryness if you don't properly hydrate your under-eye š¤ The packaging is very elegant, and you get a generous amount of product. Also, so many different shades to choose! š¤ The applicator is a bit larger than usual for a concealer, but it's still precise and easy to use. It doesn't pick up too much product, so you don't accidentally apply more than needed, which is a plus š¤ I think it's very important to properly hydrate and prep the skin before applying it to minimize the appearance of dryness, because this is certainly a very good concealer! #LYKOINFLUTESTER #ESTEELAUDER1 product in post Shade 2N79 views - The post was made 2 daysRating: 5 out of 5Verifierad testare
Beautiful shade and easily buildable
I have used Estee Lauder products on-off for years and the brand has many lovely products that I always return to. I was excited when I got to test this blush. I have previously only used powder blushes from Estee Lauder, so this was a completely new category to test. The selection of shades was delicious, it was hard to choose. I ended up with the shade meet-cute and I don't regret it! This is a shade that works for both day and night and it's easy to build up depending on how bold you want it. It also suits beginners well, as it is not super pigmented. The formula is pleasant and the product can be used with both a kabuki brush and a damp makeup sponge, but I recommend dispensing the product into your hand first > then applying it to the skin with a brush or sponge. This way, the application is easiest to control and allows for even layering. I love luxury cosmetics. For someone looking for everyday luxury in makeup, this is a lovely product, but it's not a must-have for anyone. A lovely and functional product, but I ultimately prefer powdery blushes more, so I don't think I would buy it again once it runs out. #lykoinflutester #esteelauder1 product in post Beautiful shade and easily buildable40 views - The post was made 2 daysRating: 5 out of 5Verifierad testare
Continue!
Lovely lightweight, yet covering! I had the lightest shade .0N and it beautifully brightened my under-eye area without making the delicate skin under my eyes too heavy. The concealer also didnāt settle into fine lines but stays beautifully in place all day. Long-lasting and finished result all day. This is staying in my routine! Plus for the wide range of shades. The price is also in line with other selective/luxury cosmetic concealers, so I see nothing to complain about. Really good value for money in my opinion and a concealer I would recommend especially for those 30+.

Beautiful even long-lasting finish
I was super excited to test this foundation because the older version has been my go-to foundation for years, and I also used the product in my makeup kit for clients when I wanted bomb-proof durability for photoshoot makeup. First of all, I want to say that the lovely test shade suited me perfectly. Light enough! It was also easy to find the right shade in the color chart since it was high quality and the shade range is generally wide. I love the new formula. I think itās thinner than before, and thus the finish isnāt as mask-like as I remember the previous version being. Even though I have dry-prone skin, this was easy to get to work on my skin with good primer and hydration. The makeup lasted all day without needing touch-ups, and the finish was flawless from morning to night. Plus, it didnāt turn yellow or darker as it dried. The downside is that the pump bottle has to be purchased separately. I love luxury cosmetics, and the price is okay for me, but I understand that many canāt afford to buy this. Is it worth the price? It is if you can invest more money in foundation, but remember that luxury makeup isnāt essential for anyone. š„° #lykoinflutester #esteelauder1 product in post Beautiful even long-lasting finish84 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Good - but is it worth the price?
I'm back, and this time you get to see my review of the Double Wear Stay-In-Place Concealer from #esteelauder. This concealer is described to provide long-lasting coverage, oil control, and hydration.š„° My first impression was that the packaging was very nice; simple and sleek, but also looks luxurious (which the brand is anyway). š Then when I read about the product, I learned how well thought-out the stick - design was to adapt to the different functions that a concealer stick can have - which I thought was very fun š¤ I have a combination skin type that is mostly oily, but a bit drier in areas like under the eyes and around the nose. My skin is also acne-prone. š«£ I chose shade 1C because I have a light and cool skin tone, but despite that, I found the concealer to be a bit yellow on me, which I don't expect when I choose a shade that is supposed to have a cool undertone. š¤ The concealer was easy to apply with the stick and had very good coverage. Since it is a matte concealer, it is a bit on the drier side, and I found it easier to blend out with my fingers than with a brush. As promised, the product had good oil control for the oily areas of my skin, but it settled a bit in the lines under my eyes and became a bit too dry around my nose (which most concealers do for meš„²). I didn't notice the hydration that was mentioned right away. \_( 4C4)_/ The wear time was very good, though, and the concealer didn't seem to clog pores or cause me to break out more. š In summary: A matte concealer with good coverage, precise stick, and oil control. 2B Good coverage š 2B Decent wear time 2B Oil control š§āāļø 2B Good concealer stick 2B Easy application āØ 2B No more acne -Is it a bit too warm in tone?š„ -Is it a bit too dry for my dry areasšļø -Not hydrating as describedā -The price (still a high-end concealer that does the job less well than some cheaper ones) šø It's a good, but expensive, concealer that probably suits slightly oilier skin types, and the downsides of this (besides the price) can be very individual, but if you're looking for a matte, medium - high coverage concealer, and can afford to spend a little money on it, this might be one for you! š¤ #lykoinflutester1 product in post Good - but is it worth the price? - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

The stars say it themselvesš¤Æ
New day, new Lyko mission!! This time I have as #lykoinflutester tested among other things the Double Wear Stay-In-Place Makeup SPF10 from #esteelauder !!š The packaging is simple but looks luxurious. I think itās a bit awkward how you distribute the product from the bottle - thereās nothing direct. It becomes harder to control how much product you get out, unless you are incredibly light-handed. It would be better with a pump or something. The product is supposed to be a mattifying foundation, with buildable medium to full coverage that lasts for 24 hours no matter what you find yourself doing. š This foundation is matte, which I appreciate as I have combination/oily skin. But even though itās mattifying, I still think my natural glow shines through nicely.āØ Itās also fragrance-free, oil-free, and should not clog pores, which I appreciate as someone with quite acne-prone skin - and I havenāt experienced that this has affected my pores or caused me to breakout. š„The coverage is good and the longevity too: Iāve had this on for a 12-hour shift as a waitress where you run around, as well as a full day of snowmobiling where I wore a helmet, and I barely saw a difference before and after. Also easy to blend, doesnāt transfer, and looks natural!š Good coverage Good longevity Easy to blend Oil-free and doesnāt clog pores Fragrance-free No animal products Doesnāt transfer SPF - The price Despite the price, this was a home run for me - and I would buy it again!!āļø Really worth itš„³š„³1 product in post The stars say it themselvesš¤Æ288 views- The comment was made 2 daysI totally agree with you, the price is a downside but itās so goodš¤© It really lasts through a whole work shift, a night out, etc.1 likes

Natural, but a bit pigmented
I tried EstĆ©e Lauder's Futurist Blushmaker in the color Stolen Glanceš©· I have a combination skin type with tendencies to rosacea, which can be quite oily in the T-zone and partially dehydrated/dry and reactive on the cheeks. I love using blush that brings life to the face, and I'm especially fond of cream blushš„° The product comes in a sleek and exclusive packaging, resembling a lip product. The applicator tip is quite thin, so unfortunately, you have to press quite a bit to get product out of the tube. I applied the product on my hand, blended it with a brush, and then applied it to my face. Upon application, I feel that the color is very weak, and you have to use a lot of product to get color. This might be because I distribute it on my palm first, as I usually do with my products. It's usually an advantage to have the ability to build up the color, but in this case, it was necessary to use a lot of product to achieve the desired color. Still, the product gives a very natural result, which is a big plusš©· Overall, the product is just okay. It's a nice and natural color, but it requires quite a bit of product to build up the desired color. I'm attaching pictures of before and after applying the blush. The first picture of my skin is without blush, the second picture is after application, and in the last picture, I've tried to build up the color. #lykoinflutester #esteelauder1 product in post Natural, but a bit pigmented49 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Perfect blush topper š
At first glance, I was very curious about the applicator, as I have never encountered this type before. And itās genius!! The narrow tip makes it super easy to place the right amount exactly where you want š¤© Additionally, itās more hygienic since you donāt have to dip an applicator into a bottle. The fact that the product comes in a tube is also a big plus, it makes dosing easy, and in a busy everyday life, itās nice to skip an extra step, as it can be applied directly to the cheek without any problems. The consistency is a bit thick, but easy to blend out. I tested the color across the dancefloor, and I found it to be a bit under-pigmented. Alone, it doesnāt give as much color as I would have liked. But as a blush topper, itās fantastic! It gives a natural, dewy glow without glitter, exactly the type of glow I love š®āšØ I donāt use much blush, but I love products that give glow, so this working a bit like a multiproduct is right up my alley. I especially see it being perfect for summer when you just want a bit of fresh color and glow š I would have loved to give it 5 stars, and it would have received that if it were a bit more pigmented. However, it may be that it would feel different in a darker shade or on a lighter skin tone. It gets a very strong 4 from me āļø #lykoinflutester #esteelauder1 product in post Perfect blush topper š234 views - The post was made 2 daysRating: 4 out of 5Verifierad testare
Estee Lauder vs Charlotte Tilbury
I have been using this daily since I received it to test it properly. Color: 2N I love the wide applicator, it fits perfectly under the eye š¤ However, it is a bit stiff and not very flexible. I have some dark circles and a somewhat dry eye area with fine lines. A moisturizing concealer settles into the lines, while a dry one emphasizes them and goes on cakey. Usually, I use Natasha Denona and am also satisfied with LancĆ“me. This concealer sets quickly, so you should work fast, or with one eye at a time. Donāt let it sit or apply it to too many places before you start blending. I prefer to use my fingers, and might go over with a sponge. The formula is a bit thicker and drier than Iām used to, and it doesnāt blend as seamlessly, which brings it down a bit. The coverage is very good without feeling heavy. I am still a bit cautious about building it up too much, for fear that it might cake. In the first video, you can see the difference with and without concealer, and itās quite significant š¤ I also tested it against Natasha Denona, one under each eye. The result was surprisingly similar in terms of coverage and finish. However, this one feels drier, and I notice throughout the day that the area feels somewhat drier where itās applied. You can also see that itās a bit drier. At the end of the video, you can see how they held up throughout the day. You donāt see the differences as clearly on video as you do in real life. After using it over time, the impression remains the same: It is a bit drier in both feel and finish. Itās not a big problem, I have used it daily after all, but it does mean that it doesnāt quite measure up to my other favorites. Thatās why I give it 4 stars āļø #esteelauder #lykoinflutester1 product in post Estee Lauder vs Charlotte Tilbury212 views - The post was made 2 daysRating: 5 out of 5Verifierad testare

I was really positively surprised by this! šThe consistency is a bit gel-like, which makes it easy to work with and very easy to blend into the skin. It is also incredibly economical to use, and I only need a small amount to achieve a fresh and nice look. What I like most about this product is the durability. Often I feel that blush can fade a bit throughout the day, but this one lasts all day. The picture I took was after 9 hours, and it still looks even and fresh.

12-hour wear, but at what cost?
I was really looking forward to testing this, especially after the reformulation š¤© A few years ago, I tried the original version, but unfortunately, it didn't work for me. I know many swore by the old formula, but for my skin, it was too dry, matte, and caked on the skinā¦ I have normal skin with some dry patches, a bit sensitive, and some blemishes. It can also get a little oily on my forehead. For me, the ideal foundation is therefore light, with a dewy finish. I wished it had light to medium coverage and good longevity. Since I often wear my makeup from morning to night. It can be built up, but it's not a must, as I use concealer anyway. The most important thing is that it doesn't feel like a mask! First and foremost, the well-known issue - the bottle lacks a pump. As a somewhat clumsy person, it makes both dosing difficult and increases the risk of spills š A pump can be purchased separately, but I think it's silly that it doesn't come with it when you're already paying so much for the product. On the first day, I mixed it with my Natasha Denona foundation. Which is the foundation I usually always use. It worked poorly. It separated around my nose and chin and became patchy. On day two, I adjusted both prep and application: light peeling the night before, extra moisture in skincare and base, less product (especially in vulnerable areas), and application with a brush combined with a sponge. At the same time, I set the foundation with a lighter powder. That made a big difference. Then it sat nicely for about 12 hours š Around the nose area, I experience that it disappears faster, BUT that is not an unknown problem for me. After some trying, I have figured out how it needs to be applied to work on my skin, and that is precisely what I also find a bit of a challenge. I want a more predictable everyday foundation that works without so much adjustment, and that pulls it down a bit. It feels a bit dry and matte compared to what I usually prefer. I have to work it in more than I need to with my other foundations, and it requires a bit of extra prep to lay down perfectly on my skin. Additionally, it is a bit thicker in consistency, and therefore gives more of a product feel on the skin than I like. In return, it lasts all day! So it gets a 4- from me, but ends up at a 4 since you can only give whole stars āļø Color 2W2 #lykoinflutester #esteelauder1 product in post 12-hour wear, but at what cost?445 views
