Bioré Clear & Bright Jelly Cleanser with Yuzu Lemon + Ginseng
This is particularly lovely to use in the mornings because of the citrus fragrance. It was surprisingly gentle on my skin and leaves it glowing. Pores appeared minimised.

Bioré Clear & Bright Resurfacing Scrub with Yuzu Lemon + Dragon Fruit
If you like a scrub that you can feel working, this is one for you. Felt tingly and scrubby without scratching my skin and did make it look fresher. The fragrance was lovely too.

Bioré Clear & Bright AHA Clay Mask with Yuzu Lemon + Papaya
This instantly felt tingly and fresh when I applied it. Unfortunately I was beetroot red immediately after washing it off. I did notice my skin felt softer for the rest of the week but it didnt suit my skin

John Frieda Volume Lift Lightweight Shampoo
This product made my hair feel clean and light, was easy to rinse out. Once dried my hair had more lift than normal. It also lasted longer between washes than it normally does

John Frieda Volume Lift Lightweight Conditioner
This conditioner felt silky and easily detangled my hair in the shower. Once dried my hair was shiny and didn't feel weighted down or heavy. My usually greasy fine hair looked good still after sleeping on it.

I'm usually reluctant to use mousse / foam products on my hair as I have terrible memories of crispy 90s permed hair. It didn't smell as good as the rest of the range when it came out and was an odd texture, appeared foamy at first but became watery the minute I touched it. I wouldn't normally put styling products on my roots but as I dye my hair, I needed something to blend the roots in so went ahead and tried it. The results were mixed. It didn't leave my hair feeling sticky like I expected, and I noticed it blending the roots after first use. However, my hair felt very floppy, too silky to style properly, and it left patches of brown on my hands. This product might be good for someone with wiry greys, providing they gave their hands a good scrub after! -

On first impressions the conditioner smelt subtly like tiramisu and was a chocolate sauce kind of texture. It immediately made my hair feel silkier when I applied it, and this feeling stayed after rinsing and drying. After using my hair looked shiny and was smooth. The only issue I had with it, apart from it leaving colour on my shower curtain, was that it won't help me with blending the grey regrowth in around my hairline. My hair would get flat and greasy if I applied conditioner to this area, so I could only apply it to the lengths. Even if I let my greys grow out it wouldn't help with the root area. -

I was looking forward to trying this shampoo as I've been dyeing my hair for a few years due to grey hairs around my hairline. I had hoped it would help me to extend the time between hair dyes and it has helped me to do this. In the name of science, I have delayed my next hair dye by a fortnight and feel much less self conscious about those twinkly, wiry roots that I normally would. The texture of the shampoo is thinner than I would have expected but not too runny, the smell is slightly coffee-ish, unusual but not unpleasant. Although it's a bit of a faff leaving it on for 3-5 minutes first time it gave me time to use a foot scrub so probably time well spent. It rinsed clear without staining my hands or nail varnish, and didn't leave my hair feeling coated like the colour shampoos I remember from the 90s. The grey roots are still partly visible after a week of use, but the light doesn't catch them in the same way and the texture is softer, no little silver antenna on top of my head any more. I would certainly recommend these products to anyone with a few greys that they are looking to blend, it would probably have a highlights effect, and has allowed me to leave my hair colour that couple of weeks longer. -
