    Fixative

    I was recommended this to keep the curls in place after I curled my hair. The spray smells good, not as strong as hairspray usually does. The hair is neither stiff nor that crispy. It's excellent to run your fingers through the hair to "comb out" the curls. Satisfied! [hashtag]

    Pretty okay

    The curling iron itself is really good and heats up quickly. But the clamp is a bit slow to open with just one finger, and the support feels a bit weak. I usually place the iron in the laundry room (of course empty and dry) both while I curl and afterwards as long as it’s warm. My hair consists of many but fine strands without any volume. It’s a bit slippery, so I have a hard time both getting curls and making them hold. I started by brushing my hair so it was smooth and free from any tangles. Then I sprayed with Lanza saltwater spray (not quite right for me) and let it dry in. After that, I curled a half-thick section at a time, it didn’t create such clear waves, so next time I’ll hold the iron for a few seconds longer and also change the hair product before I curl.

    Choice

    I have combination and acne-prone skin, am sensitive to strong acids and also hyaluronic acid. Dr Ceuracle Tea Tree Purifine Cleansing Foam and Dr C Tea tree toner work very well for my skin. I also use ANUA Heartleaf 77% Clear Pads, but now my skin has "gotten used to" them, so they are not as effective anymore. So now I am choosing between these and Torriden BALANCEFUL Cica Toner Pad. Which do you think will be best?

      Hey Jenny! 👋🏽 Thanks for your detailed description – so great that you’ve already found some products that work for your skin! 🥰 I think the Dr. Ceuracle Tea Tree Purifine Toner Pads are the better choice for you, they might be a bit stronger than ANUA – but since you’re already using the Dr. C-toner without any issues, these should work just fine. 😊 It’s good if you start by using them 2-3 times a week. If you use them too often, your skin might feel a bit dry, which we don’t want 🤍 But! If your skin feels stressed or dry in the future, the Torriden Pads could be a lovely alternative to switch to for more calm and hydration. 🥰 Have a lovely day! 🌞

    Fragrant Body Oil

    I have my favorite oil from Elemis, but due to the price, I only treat myself to it sometimes. So now I thought I would try another one, and the choice fell on this one. First of all, the oil is not as apricot pink as in the picture, the oil is yellow. The oil smells really good, a bit fruity and leaves a faint fresh scent on the skin. It is quite light in consistency but still rich. It’s easy to use too much, then you get "sticky" and it takes time for the oil to sink into the skin. The first time I applied the oil after body lotion to lock in moisture. But the oil is so rich that it became a bit too much, the skin was sticky for a long time before everything absorbed. This one lands in second place among the body oils I have tested. [hashtag]

    Too light

    My hair is "flat" and I have fine but many strands. I thought I’d test if this could give me a bit more texture and volume in my hair while blow-drying. This smells good and contains heat protection, which is a clear advantage. I sprayed it mainly close to the hair roots, but also a bit in the rest of the hair since it gets very smooth and tends to slip out of hair clips and similar. Then I blow-dried my hair upside down. This saltwater spray was way too gentle for my hair, I got almost no effect at all - neither volume nor texture. It definitely didn’t feel stiff like hairspray, it hardly felt like anything in my hair. I tried using it on dry hair before I was going to curl it. Then the hair feels a bit greasy and the hair became _a little_ crispy after I curled it. So I will be looking for another kind. [hashtag]

    Shade

    Hi! I tone my hair with, among others, Wella Professionals Color Touch Pure Naturals Medium Brown 4/0. Can I use Cacao to maintain the color, or will it not be dark enough?

      Hey Jenny! 👋🏼 Since this color mask is two shades lighter than your toning, it won't be able to maintain your lightness level. However, it can add warm brown pigments 🤎 If you want to check out a color mask that suits better, I can warmly recommend this one from Maria Nila, which is also at a 4a lyko.com/sv/maria-nila/maria-nila-palette-colour-refresh-cacao-intense Take care! 🌞

    More medium than dark

    ☀️ Gives a certain effect already after one application ☀️ Stays well, doesn't wash off so quickly 🌤️ The mist itself doesn't smell good right when you spray it, gets better once it dries 🌤️ Not a thin fine mist, quite a lot comes out at once so it gets very wet. On the other hand, it should be spread out. 🌤️ Smells a bit typically self-tanner when it sinks in, but there are worse. ☁️ I let it sit for about 9 hours and didn't think the color was particularly dark, more medium than dark. #lykoreview

    Not particularly dark

    👍🏻 Doesn't smell much like BUS 👍🏻 Good guide color 👍🏻 Easy to apply 👍🏻 Absorbs well into the skin 👍🏻 Doesn't dry out 👍🏻 Doesn't make me yellow 👍🏻 Gives the skin a nice glow 👎🏻 Not particularly deep color 👎🏻 Requires several layers to get a noticeable “tan” 👎🏻 The color sets quickly. My bottle leaked a bit so I got BUS on my fingers. It required tan remover and a nail brush to get it off, soap and water weren't enough. I applied three layers and let it sit for about 9 hours from the first layer. A lot of color washed off in the shower. On my legs, it left a nicely flattering color, but most of it disappeared from my décolletage. For me personally, this is very not economical since I have to apply several layers, making it expensive. But because of the nice, non-yellow color, I can still consider buying this again - but not at full price. #lykoreview

      Malin: hard to say. I have a really hard time getting color, I turn yellow from some and some wash off in the shower. So I'm not "normal" when it comes to self-tanner 😄. Then it depends on whether you want mousse, mist, or drops. I prefer mousse for the body, in that category St Tropez Dark Bronzing Mousse or St Moriz Colour Correcting Tanning Mousse are best for me. Drops, Tanologist Express Extra Dark Mist: Tanologist Self-Tan Water Dark or Isle Of Paradise Self Tanning Water Dark.
