πΈ Don't understand the product π
I have as #lykoinflutester tested Floral Drift Hair Mist from #marianila β a product that is intended as the last step in the routine or as a refresh during the day. β¨ What is this product? This is basically a hair perfume β so a mist that gives the hair scent and a fresh feel, with some elements of light hydration. It contains, among other things, glycerin, panthenol, and sunflower seed extract, which means that it is not just "perfume in spray form", but it also has caring components. It is not a treatment or a styling product, but a finishing touch β more of an extra product than a must. πΊ The scent The scent is clearly floral and sweet with notes of peony, gardenia, and plum. It is quite prominent. I am not completely convinced. π§ Feel in the hair I notice no major difference, I can use it as a detangler if needed before brushing my hair. π Summary * Smells floral * Contains moisturizing ingredients * Thoughtful packaging * Intended as a refresh during the day The product does not feel necessary. I may not quite be the target audience for the product, it feels like hair perfume might be something that is more suited for a somewhat younger audience?1 product in post πΈ Don't understand the product π130 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Maria Nila Gloss Coat β¨
I have tested Gloss Coat from Maria Nila, a heat-activated treatment that is supposed to provide shine, reduce frizz, and protect against heat up to 230 Β°C. π My hair Fine, Nordic, and easy to weigh down. Dry in the lengths and sensitive to moisture. β¨ What does the product do? Gloss Coat is applied to damp hair before blow-drying and is activated by heat. It is supposed to: * Smooth the hair * Control frizz * Protect against moisture * Provide shine that lasts up to 4 days After blow-drying, I find that my hair becomes noticeably smoother and gets a nice, even shine. It feels soft but still a bit more "cohesive". Frizz is clearly reduced, especially in the lengths. On my fine hair, it works best in a small amount β too much can make it feel a bit heavier. π Maria Nila's response to Color Wowβs dream coat * Is heat-activated * Works against frizz * Provides high shine * Protects against moisture The difference I experience is that gloss coat Provides more soft shine than mirror shine Feels more caring A bit more "hair feel" than super-silky surface πΈ Scent & feel The scent is typical Maria Nila β distinct but not overwhelming. The bottle feels sleek and well thought out. π Summary * Provides nice, even shine * Effectively tames frizz * Good heat protection * Works well in humid climates For those who want smooth, shiny hair with frizz control, this is a good option. If you have very fine hair, it might be good to start cautiously with the amount. #lykoinflutester #marianila1 product in post Maria Nila Gloss Coat β¨ - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

πΏ Maria Nila Bond Builder Leave-In
I have as #lykoinflutester tested this bond builder leave-in for a few weeks. ππ» I, who is testing Nordic fine hair, easy to weigh down. The lengths are dry and the ends break off easily, so I am always careful with strengthening products. β¨ About the product This is a strengthening and repairing leave-in that is supposed to work with the hair's bonds while providing heat protection up to 230 degrees. The idea is that it should both protect and gradually strengthen the hair. I have mainly used it before brushing and styling, which has worked best for me. In dry hair, I find that the ends feel less dry and more manageable. In damp hair, it also gives a nice result β after blow-drying, the hair feels soft, shiny, and looks healthier. I also find that it gives a light hold and a bit more βstrengthβ in the hair without making it stiff or rough, which is a plus for fine hair. πΈ Scent & feel The scent is quite intense. If you like stronger, clear scents, that's not a problem, but if you're sensitive, it might be good to keep in mind. The bottle is pretty and feels thoughtfully designed β nice color and luxurious feel. π Summary * Provides softness and shine * Good heat protection * Gives light hold without weighing down * Suitable for fine hair that needs strengthening This is a good leave-in for you with fine hair that needs extra protection and a bit more strength. #lykoinflutester #marianila1 product in post πΏ Maria Nila Bond Builder Leave-In164 views- The comment was made 2 weeksSo fun that this became a favorite for you! ππ₯° I'm really craving this, even though we don't have the same hair type. βΊοΈ

Smells incredible! ππ
I have as #LYKOINFLUTESTER tested this heat protection from #WATERCLOUDS Waterclouds Instant Heat Protection is a heat protection spray that both protects, cares for, and detangles hair without weighing it down. The formula is light, smells incredible of watermelon, and gives a soft, supple feel without any stiffness. π The product is aimed at all hair types and contains argan oil, provitamin B5, proteins, and UV protection β ingredients that protect against heat and work for healthier hair. Hair becomes soft, shiny, and it prevents frizz, making hair feel smoother, healthier, and easier to style when blow-drying or curling. I think it works best on wet or towel-dried hair, as the spray nozzle is concentrated and distributes more evenly when you can distribute the product with your hands or a comb. βοΈ In summary A really good heat protection spray for you who want to combine protection, care, and shine in one step. It provides, despite containing argan oil, a good base for styling without weighing down. Reliable, caring, and easy to use for a natural and shiny result. It gets four stars as the spray nozzle could have worked better.1 product in post Smells incredible! ππ1137 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

A no-brainer! πΈπ
I have received this multi-tool from #lykoinflutester to try out as #silkn. Here you can read my thoughts on this. Silkβn SilkyAir Flex 5-in-1 delivers salon feel at home β gentle, sleek, and surprisingly effective β¨ This βall-in-oneβ heat tool combines drying and styling, five different attachments are included. 1. autowrap-curl-attachment x2 2. volumizing brush 3. paddle brush 4. concentrator Do you recognize it? It sounds like a cheaper version of the Dyson airwrap. But for that matter, absolutely not budget. Does it hold up? Stay tuned here ππ» It has four temperature settings (39Β°C, 50Β°C, 70Β°C, 90Β°C) and three speeds. It comes with a digital display that elegantly shows the temperature on the tool. It also has automatic temperature measurement to reduce damage to the hair. The design is sleek and it is SO nice and practical that it is adjustable. Me as the tester I have 2Aβ2B hair β naturally wavy with some curls that easily get frizzy and lose shape. It dries quickly without drying out and makes the hair soft, shiny, and manageable without weighing it down. π What works well - Heat control, it automatically senses the temperature and adjusts so the hair doesnβt overheat - Low heat, perfect if you want to be extra gentle on the hair, with several heat settings from really cool to warm - All in one β so nice to not have several different tools lying around. One single unit is enough to both dry, curl, straighten, and create volume πββοΈ - Relatively quiet, makes less noise than many other similar tools, which makes it more pleasant to use - Nice design β feels luxurious, fits well in the hand, and has a long, practical cord - Built-in heat protection β constantly measures the temperature and maintains a consistent heat level, which makes the hair feel healthier after use - Versatile and effective β dries quickly and gives a nice shape without the hair feeling dry or frizzy - Nice results without overheating, the hair becomes smooth and shiny even at lower temperatures. - Premium feel β despite the higher price, it feels worth the money thanks to the quality, design, and how much it actually replaces Improvement potential - The price is quite high for an everyday tool. Even though it is cheaper than the competitors, I think it is expensive if it is not on sale. For those who only blow-dry/curl occasionally, there are simpler and cheaper alternatives - Practice makes perfect, but I have no patience? - Lacks cold-shot function. The temperature is adjusted manually In summary Silkβn SilkyAir Flex 5-in-1 delivers what it promises: a high-quality styling tool with multiple functions, good temperature control, and user-friendly. For you who want a tool that does more than just dry the hair, and who is willing to spend a little more money for quality, it is a no-brainer. π1 product in post A no-brainer! πΈπ - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Tangle-free β¨π₯°
I have as #lykoinflutester received this acidic bonding series from #redken to test for a few weeks. My hair consists of many ultra-thin strands that easily split and break. The conditioner is therefore an important product in my routine. This product makes a difference immediately upon application, you can feel the difference right after. It rinses out. The hair becomes soft and smooth and easy to detangle. Without tangles.π€ When it comes to the ingredients, the conditioner contains citric acid, among other things, which lowers the pH and helps the hair to close the cuticles for more shine and less frizz. There is also wheat protein and amino acids that strengthen the hair's inner structure, something I appreciate because my strands are so thin. After the hair has dried, it looks shinier, feels more manageable, and falls better without looking greasy. For thin strands like mine, it is extra important to have a product that doesn't weigh it down, and I think the conditioner hits the mark perfectly. The consistency is creamy and thick, but still easy to distribute. The scent is the same sweet fresh as the rest of the series. π¬π¬π¬ In the long run, I have noticed that the hair behaves better between washes, it is not as frizzy, and it feels like fewer strands break when brushing. I believe I will see even better results going forward if I have a little patience with the series. β€οΈβπ©Ή π The conditioner makes the hair more manageable without weighing it down. The effect lasts longer, and together with the shampoo and mask, it makes the hair feel more resilient.1 product in post Tangle-free β¨π₯°1094 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Gentle cleansing for fine hair ππ»
I, as #lykoinflutester, have received this Acidic Bonding series from #redken to test for a few weeks. My hair consists of many ultra-thin strands that easily split and break. Finding the right shampoo is therefore very important for me. It cleanses the hair thoroughly but without feeling dry or rough. I've noticed that it almost sticks the strands together a bit in the shower, which at first felt unusual but actually gives a feeling that the hair is binding together and strengthening already during washing. π When it comes to the ingredients, the shampoo contains citric acid, which balances pH and contributes to shinier hair with less frizz. There is also wheat protein and amino acids, which strengthen the hair's inner structure and make the thin strands feel more resilient. Afterwards, the hair feels clean and fresh, but not dry or flyaway. The scent is the same delicious candy-fresh π¬ as the rest of the series, which makes the washing experience more enjoyable. The consistency is just the right thickness, lathers nicely, and is quite economical β even though I always wash twice, I don't need to use much product. Over time, I've noticed that the hair stays healthier between washes. It feels more balanced, and my thin strands are not as fragile. I see this shampoo as a good base that, together with the conditioner and mask, helps to build the hair step by step. β€οΈβπ©Ή π The shampoo cleanses gently without drying out, strengthens the hair in the long term, and prepares it for the extra care from the conditioner and mask.1 product in post Gentle cleansing for fine hair ππ»914 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Intensive Care for Fragile Ends πΏ
I, as #lykoinflutester, have received this Acidic Bonding series from #redken to test for a few weeks. My hair consists of many ultra-thin strands that easily split and break. The mask therefore feels like a product that can provide that little extra when the hair needs more nourishment. It has a thick and quite sticky consistency, which makes it a bit more intense than the conditioner. π Here I want to raise a warning finger β οΈ do not use the mask on the entire hair, but concentrate on the ends. When I tried to apply it too high up, the hair felt almost like glue and heavy after washing. However, in the ends, it makes a big difference β the hair becomes soft, manageable, and feels stronger. Regarding the ingredients, the mask contains, just like the rest of the series, citric acid for pH balancing as well as proteins and amino acids that strengthen the hair's inner structure. For my thin strands, this is valuable, as they easily split and break. I use the mask with every wash (washing twice a week), but always in small amounts and only on the lengths. The packaging comes with a snap lid, which I find convenient in the shower. However, I would have wished for a slightly larger hole for the product β now I feel that you have to press quite hard to get the mask out. Maybe it's just my sample, but it makes the application a bit more cumbersome than necessary. In the long run, I notice that the ends stay healthier and do not break as easily. The mask feels like a good complement to the conditioner β but with the right usage. β€οΈβπ©Ή π An intensive and nutrient-rich mask that makes the ends soft and stronger. But use with caution β too much or too high up in the hair can make the hair feel sticky.1 product in post Intensive Care for Fragile Ends πΏ1115 views - The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Am I dreaming? Donβt wake me up! πβ¨
As a #lykoinflutester, I received this LED/EMS mask from #silkn. Those of you who have been following me here on LYKO for a while know that I have issues with hypopigmentation (pigment-free acne scars) combined with melasma (brown/gray skin areas). It feels like I have tried every product that claims to help with pigmentation, but nothing has worked. The only thing I havenβt tried is light therapy. I have used this in combination with a tailored cream from Dermatica, antioxidants in the form of skinceuticals ce ferulic, and SPF50. I have used the mask every day for 6 weeks. A Gamechanger π― This LED mask from Silkn also has built-in EMS that trains your facial muscles to counteract wrinkles and sagging. I have previously tried both Foreo UFO and Foreo bear, which have similar functions. Silknβs mask is a gamechanger because it does the work for you, so you donβt have to use your hands. EMS β‘οΈ The EMS function has 10 different levels, there is plenty of room to work my way up. I use EMS 3 times a week so that the muscles have enough time to recover. The only thing that has been uncomfortable is when you feel the current going through your teeth. Material and function π The Silkn mask is made of soft silicone and is secured with Velcro around the head. It is clear that the mask primarily focuses on pigmentation as it has red/yellow and near-infrared light. I absolutely LOVE that Silkn, so we donβt miss out on the blue light, has built it into the little control box that comes with it. Perfect for spot treatment of acne. Different light types π¦ * Red light (633nm) β€οΈ β collagen stimulation and healing * Amber (605nm) 𧑠β soothes, evens skin tone, pigment focus * Near-infrared β€οΈ (830nm/1072nm) β deeper healing, cell energy * Blue light (405nm) π©΅ β spot treatment for inflammation and acne, integrated into the box Pricing πΈπΈπΈ Itβs an expensive mask I would never have invested in myself without knowing it works. In hindsight, I can only conclude that it is ridiculously worth the price compared to all the skincare and treatments I have spent money on to improve my pigmentation. π« Result: Melasma fades away I have used the mask in combination with a pigmentation cream and the antioxidant CE-ferulic. The results speak for themselves - absolutely insane! I started with noticeable melasma on my forehead and at the temples/under the eyebrows β and now those spots are practically gone. The largest spot next to my eye has completely disappeared. My entire forehead is noticeably lighter and more even in tone. Thank you so much for this assignment π₯°
