Overhyped
I decided to test this setting spray after seeing the hype on social media. I’m looking for a setting spray that can increase the longevity of my makeup and also melt everything together and reduce that slightly powdery look you often get when using powder. I love the mist of this, it’s light and nice, and I also don’t think the product smells like anything, which is a plus. The first time I tested this, I applied it right at the end of my makeup routine to set my face. That was a big fail for me. My face felt very sticky, and the whole point of having set my base with powder disappeared. I hate feeling product on my skin. So, I chose to apply this after all cream products, before powder, the next time. After it dried, I went over it with a beauty blender to set it with powder. This worked better, but still, my face feels very tight after application, and that feeling unfortunately increases gradually throughout the day. I’ve tried this several times now, but I unfortunately have to admit that this wasn’t for me with dehydrated skin. It just feels too dry and sticky. #lykoreview1 product in post Overhyped1385 views- Skin therapist at Lyko1 weekHi Isabella🥰 Thank you so much for sharing your experience!

Moist Conditioner
I have been testing this conditioner as an Influtester for a few weeks now and here are my thoughts on it. I have wavy hair that easily becomes very static. Products tend to weigh my hair down, so I appreciate a conditioner that can give my hair moisture and care, but at the same time not weigh it down. This conditioner comes in a handy tube. It is supposed to combat frizz and provide shine, deeply moisturize the hair, and contains keratin among other things, which is supposed to be repairing for the hair. I always shampoo twice before I go in with the conditioner. I always squeeze out as much water as I can from my hair before applying the conditioner. I distribute it through the lengths of my hair and let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing it out. The consistency of this conditioner is very thin, a bit too thin for me. I also think it smells a bit too strong. For me, it’s important that if my hair products are going to smell (it’s not a must for me), they at least have to smell good. This one gets points deducted for the unpleasant smell. The effect this has on my hair is that I feel it gets a bit too weighed down and smooth. It was fun to test it, but I won’t be buying it as I have other conditioners I prefer that smell better and have a slightly thicker consistency 🥰 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #WATERCLOUDS1 product in post Moist Conditioner439 views- Skin therapist at Lyko1 weekHi Isabella!❤️ Thank you for sharing your positive and negative experiences with the conditioner, and I'm so sorry to hear that it didn't quite suit your hair and scent preferences.

Very good detox shampoo
I have now tested this shampoo for a few weeks. I have used it once a week to give my hair and scalp a proper cleanse. I have fine hair that easily gets weighed down by products, so I rely on a weekly round with a detox shampoo 🥰 This is supposed to remove dead skin cells and product residues from hair and scalp, with ingredients like glycolic acid and rosemary leaf extract. I have used this according to the instructions on the packaging. I have massaged my scalp well with the shampoo and let it sit for 1 minute before rinsing it out and shampooing again. Usually, I use K18's detox shampoo, which I think works really well, but this is truly a good (and cheaper) alternative. My hair feels clean and airy after washing, and I really feel that it has cleansed my hair of product residues and given me a fresher scalp. Really recommended 😍 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #WATERCLOUDS1 product in post Very good detox shampoo1255 viewsto leave a comment - 3 monthsRating: 5 out of 5Verifierad testare
Lovely foam
I usually tend to be a bit lazy about using shaving foam when I shave. Most of the time I only shave with water, as I don't have much experience with shaving foam from before. I was therefore very excited to test this. I think the packaging is really nice and it adds a nice touch of color to the shower. It honestly makes me a bit happy with its vibrant color 🥰 This one smells lovely. It comes out as a clear gel that then transforms into a soft white foam when spread out. It feels very luxurious on the skin. The razor glides easily over this foam and it doesn't clog the razor like I've experienced with many other foams. My skin feels soft and moisturized after shaving and I had no irritation. This has become a new favorite and I will buy a new one as soon as this one is empty! Absolutely fantastic 😍 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #ESTRID1 product in post Lovely foam436 viewsto leave a comment - 3 monthsRating: 5 out of 5Verifierad testare
The best blades
I have been loyal to Estrid for many years and have really loved their razors and blades. After they changed the blades and altered something in the formula, the brand has received quite a bit of criticism. But I really can't get behind this criticism. I have also read an interview with the founder of Estrid who claims that the only thing they did was remove titanium dioxide and a couple of other irritating substances, which should be a good thing. Personally, I think the new blades are better than the previous ones (the ones that were blue). I find they glide even more easily over the skin, cause zero irritation, and can actually also be used without shaving cream, although I prefer with. I also think the price is nice, as razor blades are often very expensive. I have tested razors and blades from brands like Gilette and Bic, but they only gave me irritation and left a tugging feeling on my skin. I don't experience that with these. I will stick with Estrid from now on 🥰 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #ESTRID1 product in post The best blades1326 viewsto leave a comment - 3 monthsRating: 5 out of 5Verifierad testare
Fantastic!
I have used Estrid for many years and really loved it. However, it was really time to replace my old razor now, as it was well used and starting to look a bit worn out. I previously had it in a lavender color, but this one in «Guava» looks so nice in the shower, even though I’m not really that fond of pink 😅 I love that it comes with a hook so that it can hang in a fixed place in the shower. It does have a tendency to fall down maybe once a month, so it might be smart to wipe the wall with antibacterial wipes or something else that contains alcohol, then it stays better. The razor fits nicely in the hand and glides easily over the skin, both with and without shaving foam. It’s easy to change the blades. I know many have criticized Estrid after switching razor blades and that many experience irritation and bumps with the new blades. I don’t have experience with that myself, I think these blades are just as good as the previous ones, and after testing a number of other razors, I will now continue to be loyal to Estrid. I think the quality is fantastic 🥰 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #ESTRID1 product in post Fantastic!668 viewsto leave a comment - 3 monthsRating: 1 out of 5Verifierad testare
Not for me
I am always on the hunt for a good deodorant and was very excited to test this one from Estrid. I struggle with deodorants not keeping the smell away and rarely keeping me dry all day, especially when it’s warm. My criteria for a good deodorant are that it should smell mild to nothing, keep me dry, and not leave white marks on my clothes. The first impression of this deodorant is that it seems very practical with refill. However, I am a bit disappointed with how cheap the packaging feels. It looks boring and is made of plastic. If it had been in glass, it might have felt more luxurious. It’s easy to insert the refill, and the ball rolls well under the arm. But this one smells very strong. I might rather say that this scent suits men better, but that’s just my personal opinion. Directly after application, this feels extremely sticky under the arms, so much that it was uncomfortable. But once it dried, that feeling disappeared. By then, the scent had also settled, and I could no longer smell it. But throughout the day, when I got warm, it became wet again, and the smell came back. It also left very white marks on my clothes. Unfortunately, this one wasn’t a hit for me. It smells too much, leaves visible marks, and didn’t keep me dry. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #ESTRID1 product in post Not for me3325 views- Customer service at Lyko3 monthsThank you for your thorough and honest feedback 💬✨ We completely understand that you had high expectations – and it’s really disappointing when a product doesn’t live up to them.

Gloss Shield Heat Protection Spray
I have tested products from Izel Beauty, a brand that was completely unknown to me. I have hair that needs a lot of moisture and easily gets frizzy, especially in the winter. I use a hairdryer 3 times a week, and a curling iron 1-2 times a week, so heat protectant is absolutely essential in my hair routine. Therefore, I was very excited to test this. It is supposed to protect the hair from heat at temperatures up to 220 degrees and provide good hold for styling without weighing it down. I think the packaging is pretty and simple. Since this is a spray, I was very curious about how it would spray. Many sprays come out very hard, but not this one! It’s a fine mist that makes it extremely easy to distribute in the hair. I really LOVED how this looked and felt in my hair. It gave a bit of hold and texture, while also providing a lovely shine. My hair felt truly amazing after I had blow-dried it dry. No frizz. But … and that’s a big but … This smells absolutely terrible! I have actually never come across a hair product that smells this bad. It smells very masculine, but not in a positive way. And almost a bit sour. I am very disappointed as I loved everything about this except the smell. It was so bad that I had to go take a shower and wash my hair again, as I couldn’t handle the scent. So unfortunately, this gets a bottom rating from me. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #Izelbeauty1 product in post Gloss Shield Heat Protection Spray806 views- 6 monthsBut so boring. I love the scent, even though I think it smells unnecessarily strong.1 likes

Hair Perfecting Shine Serum
I have tested this serum from Izel Beauty. It is supposed to be a repairing serum that gives shine and protects the hair in addition to calming frizz. It also protects against heat. I have dry hair that easily becomes frizzy, so I was really looking forward to testing this serum. I applied it after shampoo and conditioner on towel-dried hair, and then I blow-dried my hair dry. The serum has a lovely consistency and is easy to distribute in the hair. Unfortunately, after blow-drying, my hair was more static than ever! So it was the opposite of what the product promises. But what bothers me the most is the smell of this. I have also tested the heat-protecting spray from the same brand, which I couldn't stand having in my hair because of the smell. The same unfortunately applies to this serum. The scent is far too masculine and actually overpowers my perfume. So this was unfortunately not for me. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #Izelbeauty1 product in post Hair Perfecting Shine Serum535 views- Customer service at Lyko6 monthsHi there 🌸 So sad that this product didn't work for you.. 😥 We want to thank you for taking the time to write a review anyway.

Shine & Repair Conditioner
I have tested this conditioner from Izel Beauty that is supposed to provide intense care, nourishment, and strength to the hair. It is supposed to protect against wear and reduce split ends. I have dry, thin, and Nordic hair that easily gets split ends, so I am always looking for a conditioner that can seal the hair. I have used this after shampooing 2 times with the shampoo from the same series. This conditioner really makes the hair shiny, soft, and easy to comb. But then there was the smell. As I have said about both the shampoo, the serum, and the heat protection spray from the same series, this scent is way too strong for me. Unfortunately, it ruins an otherwise good product. #LYKOINFLUTESTER #Izelbeauty1 product in post Shine & Repair Conditioner458 views- 6 monthsHow wonderful that it turned out so well 🥰 No, the thing with scent is so different, and can really "make or break" a product 🙈2 likes
