I have been a big fan of Clinique products, so when I was accepted into the Clinique Smart Clinical Repair Serum trial, I was ecstatic. I began using the product right away, integrating it into my daily facial routine. The serum is so sheer and light, and absorbs into the skin leaving it feeling hydrated, plump and smooth. I use 2-3 pumps and massage it into my neck and face twice a day. It forms a great base for me to apply my foundation. I noticed fine lines would become less visible, however didn't notice a difference in deeper wrinkles. None the less, this is still a great product which I will continue to use.

I was very excited to use the Manicare Nova Fit Body Massager on my troublesome thigh area and hopeful that this would solve all my cellulite issues in time for summer. While it worked - it was not the easiest gadget to use. Upon receiving the device I charged it according to the instructions and couldn't wait to get started. I made it a habit to use every night after my evening shower when my skin was soft and clean. I would lather up my skin and let the massager lipo away! However this was not as easy as I expected. The suction made it difficult to slide the device against my skin, often getting stuck (particularly on my inner thigh area) or not sucking at all ( especially around my knee area). I would have to move and change positions to find a pose that made my skin taught enough for the device to move. My excitement toward the device quickly turned to disappointment as it was not simple to use and became a chore to have to endure each evening. I was happy with the results and would notice a tiny change immediately after using the massager - and this gradually became more evident over time. The results were subtle, but definitely an improvement.

This would have to be my favourite moisturizing product. From the very first use, I was very impressed with level of skin hydration achieved with such a small amount of gel. I love that the product is oil free, and doesn't leave your skin feeling oily or leave any residue. It soaks into the skin, leaving it feeling plump, soft and glowy - without the sheen. I particularly love to use it after a hot shower, the gel cream is cool and refreshing on the skin. It's the first thing I reach for after cleansing my skin and use it as the base to build my skin cream regime or base for my make up. The product is light and thin, and doesn't require a lot of gel to get the desired result. It is a beautfil shade of pink, which makes it fun and different to other products on the market. It has a slight scent, which isn't too fragrant or perfumed - making it great for even sensitive skin. I would definitely recommend this Moisture Surge Hydrator to my friends and family.

I was super excited to be a part of this trial, and try a more upmarket foundation product. My daily foundation is a drug store brand, which I'm happy with for the day to day, however I wished to invest in a higher quality brand with better coverage, and I think I've found it! I loved the technology MAC use to help colour match my skin tone. It was such an easy and helpful tools accurate tool to help select the right product for my skin tone. I received so many compliments about my skin and makeup the first day I tried the foundation. Fix Fluid has great coverage, which can be built up as desired. It blends well into the skin. I did notice it become a little cakey on my top lip, or anywhere that had moisture, or primer hadn't fully absorded into the skin. I love that foundation has the added bonus of containing sun protection. I will definitely continue to use this product as part of my beauty regime.

I had never used a microneedle derma roller before and was skeptical on how the product would benefit my skin. However I was amazed with the results! Using the product took a little bit of trial and error to gauge how much pressure to apply for how long and which direction. I would go to bed each night looking like a tomato but waking up with the most flawless skin - no makeup needed. I used the derma roller as part of my nightly beauty regime and used in conjunction with my night creams and serums. I have quite sensitive skin with areas of hyperpigmentation and rosacea on part of my cheek. After using the product I noticed fine lines diminished and my skin was more even in tone, after one night! Results are visible after the first use. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who deals with skin issues, or who wants to keep their skin youthful and lush.

I was very excited to recieve this product as I am a fan of Estee Lauder and the high end products they produce. However I was slightly underwhelmed with the results. The packaging is very appealing. I appreciated the fact that the serum comes in a glass jar opposed to plastic. The product looks expensive as you would expect from a luxury skin care brand. Opening it up, it comes with a large, tilted tip dropper to make applying the serum really easy and convenient. I found when applying, I needed to fill the dropper to get good coverage for my neck and face. The serum didn't glide on my skin as well as I had hoped. It is slightly sticky in consistency when applied which I wasn't too fond of. It is thin and sheer texture and it absorbs into the skin relatively quickly. The product aslo doesn't have a scent, which I found interesting and unexpected. Upon using the product, I didn't notice an improvement in my skin texture which was a bit of a let down.

I loved using the Minenssey Rejuvenating Superfood Facial Elixir. I have combination skin and can be quite reluctant to use oils on my whole face, particularly across my T zone as it leaves me feeling greasy and oily. However this product doesn't feel like other facial oils, it's much better! Trying this product for the first time I was pleasantly surprised by the subtle fruity fragrance that came from the bottle. It definitely made me excited to try the product. I applied the elixir after cleansing my face each evening. The first time I tried it, I followed the directions of applying 5-7 drops into my hand to warm it up before massaging it into my skin. I found, however I didn't like this method. I discovered for my skin, any more than 5 drops was too many, and massaging the oil with the palms of my hands was not effective and messy. I preferred to drop the elixir straight onto my face, massage it in with my fingertips and rose quartz roller if I felt a bit extra. The facial oil has a really nice silky smooth consistency. It's not heavy like some other facial oils I've used and I feel that it absorbs into the skin quickly and doesn't leave a greasy / oily residue. I definitely noticed that my skin was smoother and more even after using this product. It's something I am going to continue to use.

I loved this product. I have thick, dry, coarse hair that has been dyed one too many times and find it very difficult to find a product that will make my hair feel soft, moisturised and not frizzy. The Toni & Guy strenthplex mask did just that. I was very happy with the feel, weight and texture of my hair after washing my hair. My first time using this product, I was surprised at how thick and creamy the mask was. I even used a bit too much as I'm so accustomed to other products that don't moisturize unless you use half the bottle. The product coated my hair so thoroughly, and stuck to my hair. I left the mask in for 10 minutes. It was easy to just slick into a bun, with no drip or residue, so I could have easily left it in for longer for now l more hydration. And this is when I knew I loved this product. I have always had to use conditioner, even after applying a hair mask, to retain some of the silkiness to my hair. But with the Toni & Guy strengthplex mask, I didn't condition afterwards as my hair just felt so smooth. Drying my hair, I had no tangles, which means less breakage. My hair was clean and shiny, not heavy or greasy at all. I will happily continue to use this product.

I tested this as part of as part of the Minenssey Hydrating trial team. I have combination skin and used the toner every night immediately after cleansing and found this worked incredibly well. The product itself has a gentle botanical scent, much like the other products (cleanser & aqua cream). I was suprised at how hydrating a toner could be, as it left my skin feeling soft and plump. I haven't experienced this with other toners, as they usually leave my skin feeling dry and taught. I did find that I had to use a lot of product to tone my entire neck and face. I used it with cotton pad wipes to cleanse and loved seeing the grease and build up it would remove. Like the other products in the line, it's packaging is elegant and looks nice on the vanity. I would definitely continue to use this product.

I received this aqua cream as part of the Minenssey Hydrating trial team. I have combination skin, but found this product left my skin feeling lush and supple. I really enjoyed using this product and would definitely recommend it. The aqua cream has an amazing floral / botanical scent and has a nice, light water based texture. I enjoyed using this product both morning, under my make up and at night before bed. I found that while using this product, I didn't have to use as much make up as my skin became far more even with less redness. It has almost a cooling affect, which I found to be refreshing. The cream absorbs really well into the skin without leaving an oily residue. It glides over the skin and only requires a small amount of product to moisturize the entire face, so definitely great value especially because it comes in such a large pot.
