Lancôme Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate
This serum is great. You only need a few drops and it absorbs quickly to leave your skin feeling soft and nourished. Fine lines around my eyes are now less visible.

Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair
This serum is fantastic. It has a lovely scent which makes me think of walnuts and it has a creamy consistency which absorbs well. My skin feels softer, looks brighter and feels more hydrated. I love it!

I have never heard of a self-heating mask before so was keen to try it out.
I do suffer from migraines and use a lavender oil rubbed on my temples to help and I think this mask would be great to use too.
I put it on and felt it beginning to warm up and I found it so relaxing, I almost dozed off. Afterwards, my eyes looked brighter and there were less dark shadows. I think it is a very clever and unique product.

The conditioner is a really strong lilac colour and has a thick, creamy consistency and it has a pleasing scent. I used it after the shampoo and my hair felt hydrated and conditioned from root to tip. My hair did shimmer and it looked and felt clean and healthy. I would buy it again. -

I was a little worried at first that this shampoo would make me look more grey-haired as I have platinum- silver coloured hair but I needn't have worried as the effect was fabulous! My hair felt soft and shiny and my whole head just shimmered in the light. The scent was pleasant and stayed on my hair for a long time. I would definitely buy it in the future. -

The first thing I noticed was the dark maroon colour of the bottle and the chunky flip top. The shape of the bottle was easy to hold in the shower and although I have weak hands, I did not have any bother opening it up and it snapped shut well to avoid leakage.
The only downside I can see is that as you are nearing the end, you will not be able to stand it upside down easily to get at the last of the contents because of the pointed top.
The shower cream is a pale pink colour and has a rich, creamy consistency and I have found a little goes a long way. It lathers well and has a light fragrance which I cannot decide if I like or not as it seems to be flowery but with a chemical undertone.
I have been using the body wash for a few weeks now and I feel my skin is softer and more nourished but I think it was a gradual improvement rather than after the one wash as advertised on the bottle.
I would have liked to know more about the active ingredients as all that is mentioned on the front of the bottle is Nutrium and that means nothing to me and I wasn't any wiser when I looked on the back. I prefer descriptions which inspire you and mentally give you a boost even before you use it such as luxurious oils and exotic scents.
Also, I was not keen on the pro.age name as even if this product is being marketed at the mature skin age group, I want something to turn back the clock and not particularly think about aging.
I don't think this product would jump out at you on the shelf as it is quite dark and subdued in style no matter how great the contents are.
Overall, I found Dove pro.age to be a good, dependable body wash that got the job done but if I am being honest, I would probably rather buy something with ingredients that would appeal to my senses and look prettier on the bathroom shelf.

The John Frieda Luxurious Volume Conditioner is packaged in a similar way to the shampoo with a 250ml flip-top tube in black and aqua-marine. Whilst I understand about branding, I thought it would be very easy to mix up the two products accidentally especially with your head in a basin! Perhaps a stripe of a different colour on the tube would aid identification. The product states it 'features an innovative, clear formula with Protein-Strength complex. Without heavy ingredients, it detangles and weightlessly absorbs in hair...infused with body and strength for a new level of volume.'
Having very fine hair, I was keen to try it out and know the problem well of a conditioner leaving my hair flat and greasy. Like the shampoo, this had a floral/fruity scent but again no specific fragrances listed on the ingredients list. I thought the clear gel was different to the usual creamy conditioners I use and set to work to apply it to my hair after shampooing. I found it stickier than cream conditioners and slightly harder to distribute through my hair to the ends, meaning I ended up using more than I intended, however It did wash out quite easily. Afterwards, my hair did feel stronger and had more volume and a nice fresh scent which lasted until the next wash and it was not weighed down. I will continue to use it in conjunction with the other products in the range and I am pleased it lived up to the claims for the product.
