Good product at a good price
I have had the pleasure of testing the PHA 5% Exfoliating Lip Serum for 2-3 weeks. The product promises to exfoliate and provide moisture after use. The product is supposed to give shine to the lips and exfoliate so they look smoother. The product has a friendly price and comes in a practical glass bottle with a dropper. The product is lightly oily in texture but feels pleasant and moisturizing during use. A slightly sour taste, but completely unproblematic for me. I find that the product fulfills the promises they describe and is very easy to use. This has become a new favorite, and I will definitely buy a new one when I run out! So easy to use compared to sugar scrubs and similar products that you have to wash off after use. You apply this in the evening, and you don’t need to think about it again until the next morning. The lips become soft, and I experience no dryness or irritation. Highly recommended! #lykoinflutester #theordinary1 product in post Good product at a good price36 views - The post was made 3 daysRating: 4 out of 5Verifierad testare
Lots of Moisture
I have been testing the Natural Moisturizing Factors + Phytoceramides now for 2-3 weeks. The product promises moisture all day, strengthens the skin barrier, and is suitable for sensitive skin. It is said to be especially good for combination and oily skin types, due to its lightweight gel consistency. I have a combination skin type, with an oily T-zone. I have previously struggled to find face creams that work during the day, as they often make me oily and shiny. In recent years, I have found one that I swear by, so I wondered if this one could compete with it. I first tried it as a face cream in the morning, as the product promises to provide moisture all day. The product has a gel texture as described, and provides a lot of moisture upon application. You also get quite a bit of shine in the skin from the product upon application. (You can see that in my last picture) I felt I became a bit too shiny for my liking, and I think I got oily quickly. Therefore, I didn’t like using it during the day, as I felt my makeup and face became very oily. I then switched to using it for my evening routine, and liked it better there. It provides a lot of moisture and has an incredibly nice price that will suit most. My skin feels nice the day after application, and provides as promised a lot of moisture! I think those with dry skin will also like this cream, and those who want a lot of shine in their face. #lykoinflutester #theordinary1 product in post Lots of Moisture34 views - The post was made 3 daysRating: 3 out of 5Verifierad testare
Totally okay
I have now tried Volufiline* 92% + Pal-Isoleucine 1% for 2-3 weeks. I have previously used several products from The Ordinary, and have several favorites from them. I always have the red peeling from them in the bathroom cabinet among other things. The product promises to plump the skin, especially in lines around and under the eyes, nostrils, and lines on the forehead. I have seen that the product has been trending a bit on TikTok, and was very curious about what it could do for me. I am now 33 years old, and after 2 children and weight gain/weight loss after pregnancies, I have gotten some lines on my face, and a little puffiness under my eyes. Totally normal considering my age, and nothing that bothers me. But it would be nice to find something that could easily help me feel a bit fresher, especially in the morning when this shows the most. The product is lightly oily in texture, and I feel it absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving a greasy film. I find that positive. I don't feel any discomfort/tingling, but maybe others with more sensitive skin might feel something? I have let the product absorb well before applying face cream and makeup. However, I don't think I see any significant results, other than a tiny bit. I don't have large lines and puffiness, so maybe those with bigger issues around this experience a greater effect from the product than I do? Anyway, the product has a very nice price compared to similar products from other brands, which is positive. It's very exciting to test such products, as the results are very individual. The product is not bad, I find it to be average based on my experience. Thanks to Lyko for the exciting product! #lykoinflutester #theordinary1 product in post Totally okay69 views - The post was made 3 monthsRating: 4 out of 5verified customer
Good series
I have been tasked by Lyko to give a review on Redken's Acidic Bonding Concentrate Leave In Treatment. Lucky for me, this is a product I have already used on and off since it was launched, so I have had plenty of time to form some opinions about the product. A bit about my hair: - nordic hair type - natural waves/fall in the hair - color-treated - exposed to a lot of heat tool usage - long, and prone to split ends The product comes in a handy squeeze tube, so you get the desired amount without wasting product. Has the same scent as the rest of the Acidic Bonding series, a bit tangy. Light lotion consistency, and easy to distribute in the hair. I would recommend sectioning the hair so you get optimal effect. The product promises to repair the hair from the cuticle to the cortex, ultimate repair and intense care. Important to note that you should ideally use the entire series with shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask in addition to the leave in treatment to get the full effect Redken refers to in their ads. I feel the hair becomes stronger and more resilient, but you have to use it consistently and over a longer period. I don't quite like the feeling in the hair after use. I find that it becomes a bit "dull" so I use a hair oil over it at the end once the product has had time to work, so that the hair feels smooth after use. All in all, a good treatment if you want stronger hair, you just have to be consistent and patient in the use. #lykoinflutester #redken1 product in post Good series1250 views - The post was made 5 monthsRating: 4 out of 5verified customer
Good
I have been so lucky to test 3 products from Redken's Acidic Bonding Concentrate series over a 3-week period. I have used this series before, with shampoo and conditioner, as well as the leave-in cream. This was shortly after it came to the US market, so nice to have a refresh! A little about my hair: - Nordic, fine hair strands but a lot of hair. - long and naturally wavy - slightly damaged ends and wear due to bleaching (highlights) - little volume on top without help from styling products I have used the product about every other evening, after using shampoo from the same product series. The product is a bit slow to come out of the bottle, as it has a thicker consistency. Smells similar to the shampoo, citrus/acidy. I recommend leaving it in the hair for at least 3 minutes, preferably longer. The hair is soft and clean after use, and easy to handle with styling tools. I like the conditioner better than the shampoo, as it provides decent moisture to my ends. However, I think many with hair like mine want more moisture for the ends, so I recommend using a styling cream or oil after washing. Thanks to Lyko for letting me test products from Redken again! 🥰 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #REDKEN1 product in post Good456 views - The post was made 5 monthsRating: 4 out of 5verified customer
Great mask!
I have been so lucky to test 3 products from Redken's Acidic Bonding Concentrate line over a 3-week period. I have used this line before, back with the shampoo and conditioner, as well as the leave-in cream. This was shortly after it hit the US market, so nice to have a refresh! A bit about my hair: - Nordic, fine hair strands but a lot of hair. - long and naturally wavy - slightly damaged ends and wear due to bleaching (highlights) - little volume on top without help from styling products I actually have this mask standing in the shower permanently, it’s quick and easy to use, and effective. It comes in a practical squeeze tube, where you have to use a bit of force to get enough product out. Same scent as the rest of the line, though a bit milder. The product is creamy and easy to distribute in the hair, leaving it more manageable and soft. I recommend leaving it in the hair as long as possible, I think I get even better results that way. This is my favorite product from the line! I believe it will suit most hair types, unsure about those who are sensitive as I know some have reacted to the line. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #REDKEN1 product in post Great mask!505 views - The post was made 5 monthsRating: 3 out of 5verified customer

A bit about my hair: - Nordic, fine hair strands but a lot of hair. - long and naturally wavy - slightly damaged ends and wear due to bleaching (highlights) - little volume on top without the help of styling products I have used the product about every other day during this period, with two rounds of shampoo each wash. The shampoo has a slight citrus scent, but not unpleasant. I find that it lathers well in the hair, and that it feels clean after washing. However, I do feel that my hair gets "greasy" faster between washes with this line, which is not surprising since there is a lot of intense moisture in the product. The product line is supposed to make the hair stronger, provide more moisture, and strengthen the hair, and whether it does that in the long run, I am unsure, as I think one must test the product over a longer period to see results. However, I feel that where the hair has no damage, it is shinier and looks healthier, but that the damaged ends need more care with this line to not become very dry. It’s not my favorite shampoo, but it’s not bad either. A middle-of-the-road shampoo that I will use up, but I will use it together with another shampoo I have. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #REDKEN1 product in post Totally okay471 views - The post was made 10 monthsRating: 5 out of 5Verifierad testare
New favorite!
I have been so lucky to test out the new self-tanning spray from Rebecca Stella, Coco Daze Tan Mist. I am an experienced self-tanner user and have tried a lot of different products in this category since 2012. Mostly, I have used mousse, but when I needed just a refresh or a quick glow. I have previously liked the spray from James Read and have used it for many years. The product comes in a practical bottle with a spray function. I was afraid it would result in an uneven finish since I wasn't sure if I covered all areas. I always find it a bit scary with new self-tanners because if the result is bad, it's not just easy to wash it off.. But I have been so positively surprised by this product that it has become a new favorite on my shelf that I use several times a week. After I became a mother, I have become more dependent on products being quick to use, effective, and reliable. This product delivers everything it promises and lasts nicely on the skin. I have used it mostly on my face, neck, and chest. You get a very nice glow while the product works, and when you wash it off, you have a nice sun-kissed color. The product smells better than most self-tanners, and the price is also nice. Recommended for anyone wanting glow and color, simple as that. 👌🌼 #lykoinflutester #rebeccastella1 product in post New favorite!1463 views - The post was made 10 monthsRating: 4 out of 5Verifierad testare
Versatile cream
I have been so lucky to test products from the new brand SAWE for a month. Exciting new brand developed by an aesthetic nurse in collaboration with top laboratories. The brand focuses on effective and innovative skincare. A bit about my skin: -combination skin type with dry areas -large pores in the T-zone -focus on slowing down signs of aging, and a desire for healthy and glowing skin. The products come in an ice blue squeeze tube with black text/print. The cream is thick in consistency, so you have to use a bit of force to get the product out. The cream contains several good ingredients that provide moisture like glycerin and panthenol. The cream is, as mentioned above, thick in consistency, and I chose to use it in the evening as it turned a bit white on my face and took time to absorb into the skin. However, the cream moisturizes well, and I have also used it as hand cream since I get dry hands in the spring. It worked well for that. I can also see that it would be nice to use on elbows and knees before self-tanning. Overall, a good and versatile cream at a nice price for the amount, I think. I can see that those with dry skin will like this cream if they can tolerate the thick consistency. Thanks to Lyko and SAWE for letting me test these nice and good products. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #SAWE1 product in post Versatile cream575 views - The post was made 10 monthsRating: 4 out of 5Verifierad testare
Good serum for combo/normal skin type
I have been so lucky to test products from the new brand SAWE for a month. Exciting new brand developed by an aesthetic nurse in collaboration with top laboratories. The brand focuses on effective and innovative skincare. A bit about my skin: -combination skin type with dry areas -large pores in the T-zone -focus on slowing down signs of aging, and a desire for healthy and glowing skin. The products come in an ice blue glass bottle with a dropper, with black print/text. Practical and hygienic with a dropper, and you easily get out the amount you need for your face and neck. The product contains hyaluronic acid in different molecular forms and niacinamide, which are good ingredients for healthy and radiant skin. I think I might need a lot of product per application to cover the desired area, which might be a downside for some regarding the price. (I recommend buying now while there is a 20% promotion!) The product feels nice on the skin, and I think it hydrates well for my combination skin. I get a very nice glow in my face from the serum, some might think it’s too much glow, but it depends on what you like. I believe most people with normal/combination skin will like the consistency and feeling that the product gives. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #SAWE1 product in post Good serum for combo/normal skin type514 views
