- Some of the latest things I've bought or received ☺️ Hey guys 💖 I've been a bit absent here for a couple of weeks, there have been some tough changes in my life and in the middle of that storm my phone broke – with all important passwords/bankID and also all the content I've created and not shared here yet. I've been busy trying to solve everything bit by bit and keep my head above water 🩷🌊 Now I'm on a loaner phone with a slightly worse camera😅 Hope you're doing well 🩶 IN THE VIDEO: • A creamy lipstick I've had my eye on for a while, feels luxurious and has good pigment 💄 (smells like vanilla like many other lip products, I would have preferred a fruity scent instead 🍓) • Chromatic shimmer in red / purple / green that I've had on my wishlist for a very long time, seems super nice for brown or green eyes ♥️🤎💚 • Ran out of my usual concealers, so I'm trying this one now. Feels a bit thicker, covers well and holds up well I think – so far so good (tested for a week) 🩷 • Refill of my favorite CC, use it as a base, goes a very long way because it evens out tone differences so well 🩷 • Testing this because I'm looking for an affordable alternative talc-free (!) powder to Bare Minerals Mineral Veil. First impression was that it has a bit of a fresh/earthy scent, not so nice but doesn't bother the skin. Totally okay, but not a replacement for my favorite. But I like UogaUoga's design & it feels like an exciting natural/organic brand (from Lithuania) 🤍 • Won this luxurious mascara a while ago, but waiting a bit to open it since I already have many opened 🖤 • Exuviance is a brand I'm curious to try, bought this and another product I'll show a bit later 🤎 • Being fully tested by me as #lykotestpilot and a review is coming soon 🤍 – Have you tried any of these? 💕 #newin #makeup #smink #morphe #moira #lumene #theordinary #exuviance #sensai #sensai100 #lipstick #eyeshadow #concealer #cccream #lykocreator #lykomission8 products in the look40 views

Melts into the skin
I had the opportunity to test this product as #lykotestpilot and chose the lightest shade sand. I have fair skin that here towards autumn gets drier to be both pale, ice blue/white, and dry in winter. VERSATILE BUT CHOOSE SHADE WITH CARE I think honey would have worked better as a bronzer on me. For a “darker” person, this shade can work as a highlighter; on me, the product works well as an all-over tint. It melts seamlessly into my own skin tone. I get a more even skin tone and look sun-kissed. For me, who likes natural makeup and doesn’t want to look too made-up, this was perfect. I usually tone down the glow with powder on selected areas since otherwise, you really get a nice glow. This product gives a glow, but if you apply it with water, it becomes more of a shimmer than a glow. The shade lightens a bit then and becomes more golden than golden. Worth keeping in mind if you use a brush with water, for example. I think it applies best with fingers or a sponge. The product’s consistency is quite runny, so it’s easy to blend out. With heavy sweating (read longer runs at threshold pace or other hard training), the product can ball up. Otherwise, it has worked well. I like the product and will continue to use it. #maxfactor #nudemakeup #makeup #lykoreview #smink #glow1 product in post Melts into the skin10 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The post was made 2 hoursGlow glow glow As a #lykotestpilot, I got to test this glow primer from Max Factor. It comes in several different shades (6?) and depending on which shade you choose, you can use it as a highlighter, bronzer, contour, or all-over tint. I chose the shade sand, and it blends so well into my own skin, the only difference I really see is the glow (very noticeable) and that I look fresher. The skin tone evens out, the shade becomes slightly darker or like a sun-kissed summer skin. You look naturally radiant. The product is also quite water-resistant, so if it rains heavily, you’ll still have product left with a nice glow. Just don’t start rubbing it because then things can obviously happen. My skin tends to get a bit drier at this time of year, and I usually work out a lot. With intense effort and lots of sweat, it has clumped a bit on me, otherwise I haven’t had any reactions or other annoying issues. So I will continue to use this product and it might become a repurchase. #maxfactor #glow #makeup #smink1 product in the look67 views

Good, but not the best.
I recently reviewed the shampoo I got to try, which unfortunately didn’t suit my hair. The conditioner is better! ☺️ As I felt about the appearance of the shampoo, I have the same thoughts and feelings about the conditioner. The look is a bit boring/masculine/unisex. The conditioner comes in a tube with a flip cap = easy to use. The conditioner has the same sweet scent as the shampoo. And I think the scent stays in the hair and gives a pleasant fragrance. ☺️ The consistency was good, I think. As I said, I have curly, dry, coarse hair that needs lots of moisture & oil. As mentioned, the conditioner was better. It moisturizes/conditions but doesn’t fully meet what my hair needs. I always have to use a lot of product when it comes to masks, conditioners, leave-in creams, hair oils, etc. So the fact that I use a lot of Headon’s conditioner has nothing to do with this particular conditioner. It’s simply what my hair needs. So to sum up: Not a terrible conditioner for my hair. But not the very best either. A solid three. 3️⃣ #lykotestpilot #headon1 product in post Good, but not the best.33 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Too glittery for me
When I first received the product (Glow Framer Skin Tint, in shade no. 10 sand), my first impression was that the packaging felt very plastic and not inspiring at all. After using it for a few weeks, I can now say it has both pros and cons. I tried varying how I used the product. I tested using it both as a contour/framing product on top of my base and mixing it with the base to get a glow all over the face. Pros: 💚 easy to blend/apply 💚 can be mixed into the base without it "rolling" 💚 gives a clear glow 💚 a little goes a long way Cons: ❌ hard to use in multiple ways because, in my opinion, it’s too light as a contour but a bit dark to use all over the face. You might have to choose how you want to use it and then buy a suitable shade. ❌ it definitely gives a glow, but in the form of glitter particles. I prefer when there are fewer particles that give the feeling of a radiance, but for me, this is mostly just glittery. In summary, I think there are better products out there that do what this product promises. However, this is not a bad product; it definitely gives a glow, it’s just a matter of preference how you want that glow to look. The formula is good, and the product is relatively affordable. What I think is missing for this to get 5 ⭐️ is fewer glitter particles and more inspiring packaging. I will definitely use up the product but won’t repurchase it. #lykotestpilot
