The product I didn't know I needed
I had the honor of testing this product from [hashtag] in my role as [hashtag] I want to start this review by telling a bit about my lips and how they are otherwise. I have a pretty thin upper lip that is quite protruding without much volume on the sides. Then I have a very small mouth and a crooked jaw. I also have quite downward-facing corners of my mouth that can give a very sour impression in a resting state. I have never done lip fillers before, and I don't use many caring products like lip balm for my lips. In winter, my lips can get quite dry, and then I use lip products, but otherwise, I usually just moisturize them with regular day cream that comes around the area. So I can sometimes have slightly dry lips that aren't very noticeable. Now to the actual product: The product came in a black box that gave a luxurious impression. The manual was easy to follow, and the product itself was very light but didn't feel sticky. The product comes with a silicone tip that I found very challenging to get in place as I had to push and push and wiggle to get it in place. The same applied when I wanted to take it off. Unfortunately, this takes away a point as I rarely took it off when I cleaned it because I found it time-consuming and cumbersome. The button with the settings I found extremely sensitive and accidentally hit it several times, which caused the program to switch in the middle of everything, and you had to try to keep track of the time yourself. This and that I had difficulty disassembling it unfortunately takes away a star from the rating. To the actual result and use of the product: I have tested this product for almost exactly 4 weeks and have used it almost every day. I have missed using it a few times, but at most with 2 days in between. I have primarily used the first setting, which is supposed to give plump lips and reduce fine lines. In the first week, I mostly used the second setting, which is supposed to improve the color of the lips. At first, it was a bit uncomfortable to bite on the tip, so I held it with my hand, but then I found a way to have it in my mouth that was relatively comfortable and worked for me. I like that it had a built-in timer, which made it easier if you wanted to do other things at the same time. After just 4-5 days, I noticed that my lips looked less pale and appeared softer, and that they had gained a bit more volume and felt more hydrated. In the last two weeks, my lips have been a bit drier than they were in the first two, but nothing extreme. I don't think it's this product but that I have switched to a lighter day cream that doesn't hydrate as much. But still worth noting. I will continue to use this product in conjunction with using lip balm. Now when I compare the before pictures with my lips today, I see a very big difference in the volume of the upper lip, and I feel that my mouth corners look less sour even at rest. Fine lines around the lips/corners of the mouth are not something I saw any significant difference in after 1-2 weeks of use, but only after 4 weeks, so I believe that if I continue to use the product, I will surely see even better results. It is difficult to evaluate my pictures completely accurately as the pictures were taken in slightly different light and can depend on facial expressions, but I still think it shows that the upper lip has gained more volume on the sides, but also a bit in height. What I notice in the mirror is that my lips look more alive and healthy with a bit more rosy color than usual! Surprisingly good results that give naturally plump lips! I was skeptical at first about whether this product would deliver what it promised, but I was quickly proven wrong as it actually delivers results! I can recommend this if you want a bit more color and volume on your lips but don't want to use fillers! Is there an extreme volume difference you get? No, but you get the best version of your own lips, and the product is easy to incorporate into your night or morning routine. I am still impressed by the versatility of this product, and the price is worth it. Do I want to try more products from Silkn? Absolutely! I am very curious to try Silkn's face mask as I have really gained confidence in their products.1 product in post The product I didn't know I needed163 viewsto leave a comment - 3 weeksRating: 4 out of 5
Say goodbye to pores and red skin
I was lucky enough to win this toner and I must say that after a week of use, I preferred not to use any foundation or concealer! Total love! In conjunction with testing this, I also started on maxosol tablets, so I became unsure if it was them or this that made my skin so extremely nice and even. For I hadn't changed anything else in my skincare routine other than adding this before the moisturizer and sunscreen. Unfortunately, it ran out during my vacation and I've been waiting to order a new one, but I quickly noticed that my skin became less glowy and the pores more visible as well as not as even skin tone. Additionally, I started getting more blemishes. I've ordered a new one and will definitely test the rest of the Dr ceuracles hyal reyouth series! The product itself gets 5/5, but due to the bottle that leaks quite easily even when closed properly and that it is only 100 ML, it brings the rating down a bit. Unfortunately, it didn't last that long. It could also be me wasting a bit since it was so extremely lovely to use. But for the price, it's no big deal. I recommend it to those with a bit of redness and dry skin and you who want a glowy skin to use this! Due to my sensitive skin, I mainly use only day creams and products with hyaluronic acid. I recommend combining this with a day cream with extra moisture for optimal glow!1 product in post Say goodbye to pores and red skin699 views- 3 weeksI've looked at this before, but I've been a bit hesitant.

Must share already
Right now I’m testing Lumi lips from Silkn’ as my influencer assignment and I’ve only been testing it since July 16th, so 8 days. I’ve used it daily (except for one day). I’ve mostly been on program 2, which is supposed to even out the skin tone around the mouth and on the lips. It’s also supposed to soften and rejuvenate the lips and the skin around. Already after 5-6 days I noticed that my lips looked significantly softer and pinker than usual. Now for the last 2-3 days I’ve only used program 1, which is supposed to reduce fine lines and give better lip contour and a fuller lip. I had to share this because I was so happy when I compared before with a slightly bad picture of how the lips look. You can quite clearly, despite different lighting, see that the upper lip looks a bit fuller and one of the corners of the mouth doesn’t go down as much anymore. Also, the lips look more even. According to the product page, you should notice a difference after 2 weeks, and so 8 days is super impressive! Ps. I haven’t used any specific moisturizing products on the lips, which I’m bad at using. I’m so excited to see how the results will be in 1-2 weeks! I can’t wait to do a proper review later when I’ve had a chance to try the product a bit more.1 product in post Must share already430 viewsto leave a comment - 1 month

Finest red color!
I had the honor of testing these layers as #LYKOINFLUTESTER from #LOVENLAYER My first impression of the packaging for this one was that the color looked just like on the website, if not even better! The perfect wine red/burgundy color. When I opened the packaging to apply, I found the layers quite plastic-like, but after application, I experienced a very glossy and natural result. I have tested nail polish stickers before, but none that you can harden or that can be shaped to your own nail in that way. I used the brand's instructional video for the first layers I tested, and unfortunately, I didn’t think that application worked really well. Mainly because it was hard to file the edges unless you cut to the shape beforehand, so it ended up being quite a poor application at the nail tips. However, that was something I tried when I applied the other layers I received to test. I then experienced that they lifted and pieces on the top/edges flaked off. I like how quickly it goes to apply layers and how you get a more even surface compared to nail polish. Very nice glossy finish and received many compliments at work, but especially for this color! The downside of the product is that I found the edges quickly became worn if you used your nails to open things, etc. I also found that the application requires a bit of practice and that it’s probably what affects the durability of the result. I usually use press-on nails and prefer them as they give more length and I find them more durable, but now for the summer, I will test layers for toenails as I have a very uneven surface on my toenails and I really liked the look of this product!1 product in post Finest red color!1262 viewsto leave a comment - 5 monthsRating: 3 out of 5Verifierad testare
Smooth and cute LED lamp
Received a bunch of products to test as #LYKOINFLUTESTER from #LOVENLAYER One of them was this portable cordless UV lamp. Very cute lamp that was smaller than I thought. Reminds me of an Apple mouse which is a bit funny. I used this together with my two different layers I received to test. Unfortunately, I can't say if the lamp is good or not as I didn't experience such strong curing of my layers, especially after the first round. But after the second test and after I changed my application a bit where I trimmed the edges and filed after curing, I noticed a difference, so I would still say that the product does its job! I did two rounds though because I felt that the curing got better. Big plus that it is small and handy but also a downside as I had to do the thumbnails on both hands separately since I couldn't fit both hands in so all nails were covered by the light. I do find the battery life to be good as I haven't needed to charge it since I used it the first time which was about 3 weeks ago. For the price, I would probably have bought a slightly larger UV lamp just to be able to do all nails at once.1 product in post Smooth and cute LED lamp779 viewsto leave a comment - 5 monthsRating: 4 out of 5Verifierad testare
A more luxurious nail file
I had the honor of testing these nail files as #LYKOINFLUTESTER from #LOVENLAYER My first impression of the product when I took it out of the package was that it had a nice weight and looked very luxurious. I haven't used glass nail files before, so it was a very unusual feeling, but I thought it would be more uncomfortable than it actually was. I found it to be very gentle and it didn't file away too much. Because of this, I didn't feel it was very suitable for the use of layers as it took a while to file the edges. The advantage of the glass file is that it didn't get dusty inside and didn't ruin the finish of the layer. I also experienced that you quickly consumed the optimal filing strength of the file after 2 rounds of applying layers. It became a little less effective after filing all the nails and layers for two applications. Overall, it's a good nail file, I don't have much to compare it to since it's the first glass nail file I'm testing. Is it something I would buy again? Probably not1 product in post A more luxurious nail file206 viewsto leave a comment - 5 monthsRating: 3 out of 5Verifierad testare
Very nice finish!
I had the honor of testing these layers as #LYKOINFLUTESTER from #LOVENLAYER My first impression of the packaging for this one was that the color seemed quite dull on the sticker on the packaging. But as soon as I opened it and started working on my nails, I loved the design! Simple and yet with a cooler twist on a French manicure. I have tested nail polish stickers before, but none that harden or can be shaped to fit your nails in that way. I used the brand's instructional video for the first layers I tested, and unfortunately, I didn't think that application worked very well. Mainly because it was difficult to file the edges if you don't cut to the shape first, then the application at the nail tips became quite poor. But since this was the second layers I tested, I cut the shape more and cured under the UV lamp before filing the edges and experienced a much better result. I like how quickly it goes to apply the layers as well as how you get a more even surface compared to nail polish. Very nice glossy finish and received many compliments at work. The downside of the product is that I found the edges quickly became worn if you used your nails to open things, etc. I also found that the application requires a bit of practice and that it’s probably what affects the durability of the result.

Great volume and separation!
As a Lyko influencer, I was really excited to test this mascara! I prefer mascaras that give volume and separate the lashes while holding them up, so I was really pumped for this one. I have quite a few lashes that tend to get weighed down at the outer edge, and the rest of my lashes also stay naturally straight. So the expectations were high for this product. My first impression of the product was that the brush looked really nice, I love slightly curved brushes, especially in rubber material. As others have mentioned, you need to apply a few layers of this to achieve volume. I usually only swipe the mascara brush 1-2 times in the same stroke with other mascaras because I find that most mascaras clump at the edges of the lashes and disrupt separation. So I was very positively surprised at how easy this was to work with and that I could apply multiple layers without the separation being disrupted or any noticeable larger clumps! I really like the volume in this, but unfortunately, I don't experience any significant lift or curl effect even when I use an eyelash curler. I also find that my outer lashes at the outer corner go downwards. The rest stay in place, but the outer ones have several “rows” of lashes, so they might be a bit too heavy for the mascara, and it’s not sticky enough for them to hold together. I love how light it still feels on the eye, so maybe it’s just my outer lashes that are only held up by stickier mascaras. Another plus with this is that it doesn’t flake or clump. Stays nice throughout the day! Comparing this to my favorite mascara Maybelline Sky High Waterproof, this unfortunately doesn’t hold the curl of the lashes as well, but this is so much easier to wash off, and I also find that this feels lighter on the lashes and dries faster. My lashes in the pictures for this review are not curled before or after application. In summary, this is probably in place 2 of my favorite mascaras. Mainly for the volume, that it is so buildable and easy to wash off. #lykoinflutester #makeupstore #lykoreview1 product in post Great volume and separation!
