I've used Revitanail in the past and was happy with results so keen to try this new one! Unfortunately I didn't get to trial it for as long as I'd hoped so can't comment on long term results. I love that it can be used as a base and top coat as well as a traditional strengthener. I use shellac on my nails on my nails at home myself, and although I avoid buffing them too much they are quite damaged and week! Doing a couple of coats initially then 1 coat a day as instructed does seem to make my nails a bit stronger and not so weak, but definitely keen to use longer term to see if there's a big difference in the health and length of my nails!

I love Trilogy products and was very happy to receive the AHA Resurfacing Serum to trial for the BH Glosscars. Firstly I LOVE the smell, like a fresh citrusy-lime scent. This serum goes on very nicely, skin feels instantly hydrated and smooth. Also feels instantly plumped from the hyaluronic acid, and sinks in well for a moisturiser on top. I used this both during the day under makeup, which didn't affect my makeup, and at night. In the morning after using overnight I would wake to hydrated, plump and slightly brighter skin. The resurfacing could've been better, I didn't notice a major difference but this could be because I use a lot of strong AHAs so maybe it's not as potent as my usual products? That said, I would definitely continue to use this product to see if I notice a difference and for the instant hydrating properties.

I received this product in the shade Peony to trial for the BH Glosscars. I've had many Burt's Bees products in the past including multiple lip balms which I love, but not a fan of this one unfortunately. The shade Peony I would describe as a natural-nudey pink with shimmer. The colour is so sheer on me I don't notice a colour difference on my lips, only the shimmer. I don't like any lip product with a shimmer, I feel like it doesn't suit me and ages me. Also, this product contains peppermint oil, but I can't stand anything peppermint (even chewing gum, I know, weird) and although I do like the tingling and subtle plump it gives the smell/taste makes me want to rub it off straight away. On the positive side, love the slim tube which is very pocket or purse friendly. My dislikes about this product are definitely personal preference, and I could see how other people love this product.

I've heard a lot of great things about the Dr Naomi brand so was very happy to receive this to trial for the BH Glosscars! Firstly love the packaging, the pump syringe type tube helps prevent cross contamination and would keep the product fresher longer. This feels surprisingly thick for an eye cream, but didn't feel heavy on the skin or affect my makeup. My main eye concerns are fine lines, dry skin and a bit of dullness. The Catfish cream gave instant brightness to the area, hydrated and blurred my fine lines. Very keen to keep using this and see the long term effects!

Was so grateful to receive this to trial for the BH Glosscars! This sunscreen came out of the tube so thick being zinc based I thought it would be heavy which I hate. But it rubs in so well with zero white cast! I wore it bare faced and it was comfortable, and a couple of days with a full face of makeup and it didn't affect that at all - surprised it didn't cause my foundation to slide off. So happy to see it is reef safe as well, I would definitely repurchase this product and recommend to anyone wanting a new sunscreen.

I've been using a competitors brand nail polish remover dip with acetone for years, so was very interested in trying the Manicare version without acetone! Inside the container is a black sponge soaked in nail polish remover, with a hole in the middle of the sponge just large enough for a finger. Dipping/twisting my finger in and out a few times is enough to fully remove my nail polish, only a little more time required than my normal acetone remover but without the nail damage. Not only is using this product quicker and less fiddly than traditional nail polish remover and cotton rounds, I love the small but important environmental impact of not needing cotton rounds whenever I remove my nail polish.

I've never tried any Clinique products before and was lucky enough to receive this as part of the Glosscars trial team. This moisturiser has a really light, gel-like consistency. A little goes a long way, only a small amount is needed to cover my whole face. I also did a thicker layer a couple of nights like a sleeping mask and woke with plump, hydrated skin. It has a slight cooling effect, would be great for summer but for winter I would definitely prefer a richer cream moisturiser. I was moderately happy with how hydrated it left my skin the day after using, I wouldn't say it kept my skin hydrated for 100 hours. Would recommend to anyone who likes a gel moisturiser.

I have tried many eye makeup removers but always come back to this one. My eyes can be quite sensitive to some eye makeup removers but I've never had an issue with this one (perhaps as there is no fragrance?). It has a little oil in it to help remove stubborn or waterproof eye makeup but I never think I am left feeling greasy. It easily gets off my everyday eye makeup (mascara and eyeliner) or heavier stuff with lots of eyeshadow without the need for vigorous rubbing which damages my eyelashes. I can't fault the Garnier 2 in 1 Eye Makeup Remover.

I have fine, flat hair with dry ends and sometimes oily roots. I wanted to see if the bio:renew conditioner would give me moisture and a bit of volume. It certainly didn't leave my hair dry but wasn't the most moisturising ever, and didn't give a lot of volume The bottle is the same design as the complementing shampoo but with a solid orange packaging rather than clear, which makes it easy to know if you are grabbing the shampoo or conditioner in the shower (something that bugs me about other brands). The fragrance was definitely my favourite thing about this product, the white grapefruit with a slight hint of mosa mint gave a perky, energetic scent. The conditioner itself was quite creamy without being too thick. I applied it through the lengths of my hair and was happy with how it seemed to immediately nourish my dry ends After washing the conditioner out, I blow dried my hair as normal. My ends felt moisturised without feeling too weighed down, but I would've liked just a little more moisture. Overall I was quite happy with the bio:renew conditioner however wouldn't go recommending it to everyone or be purchasing it again.

I have fine hair with sometimes oily roots and forever dry ends. I was interested whether this shampoo would give me any volume, and was sadly disappointed Firstly, I did love the packaging, the clear bottle and bright, natural looking design were eye catching. The shampoo itself was a clear gel product, which I prefer as I find it gives me a deeper clean than a creamy shampoo. The fragrance was amazing, definitely my favorite thing about the product. I'm not a big mint fan but I found the mosa mint perfectly complemented the white grapefruit, for a perky, fresh scent The shampoo lathered up slightly as I massaged it through my roots. It felt quite cleansing without leaving my hair feeling stripped. It was easy to wash out and I then followed with the matching bio:renew conditioner and blow dried my hair as normal. My hair felt clean and slightly moisturised but eh, I wasn't totally blown away with the results. I was happy but not about to run out and tell everyone about it. They recommend results are best shown after 21 days, but I don't know if I'll bother using it for that long.
