Luxurious and silky body cream, applies very easily and quickly with no greasy residue. My skin felt very soft and smooth just after one application. The scent is very delicate and sweet, not at all overwhelming. It stays on for quite a while so for me it is a good quality rich cream which I will definitely be purchasing again! -

I use this cream after the serum both days and nights and I really love it. It has a very lovely and subtle scent which is not overwhelming at all. The texture is thicker than I am used to and maybe it would be better for cooler days but it still absorbs easily and makes my skin feel very soft and plump. The change is very noticeable and leaves my skin glowing with wrinkles much less visible. Definitely my favourite; the only thing that is missing for me is SPF. -

A great product especially for dry hair. I've only used it a few times so far but I absolutely love it. My hair is usually very dry, especially the ends but after using oil it became really silky and shiny and my dry ends lovely and smooth. The hair feels nicely nourished so now it is a must-have for me. -

I've been using this serum for a few weeks now and I absolutely love it. It is the first product that actually does what it promises on the box and I can see very clear results only after 3 weeks of usage. My skin is so much smoother, firmer and plumper, my wrinkles, that were quite pronounced, are barely visible. I've had quite a few people comment how much better my skin look so the results are even better than I expected.
The serum comes in a 30ml glass container with a pippet so you can easily apply the desired amount of serum to the required areas of the face. Personally, I am a fan of a pipet as I think it is so much more hygienic to use.
The serum is extremly silky in texture and lightweight so it is very easy to apply. It absorbs nicely and doesn't leave any greasy residue and you can easily put on the night cream on. The scent is lovely as well - not very overwelming but quite pleasant. This serum became a parmanent part of my skincare routine and I put it on, on a cleansed skin, before my usual night cream.
Because it contains retinol you need to ensure your daily cream contains at least SPF20. I didn't have any adverse effects to retinol and my skin is quite sensitive plus it was the first time I used a product with retinol so I found it safe. You need to slowly build up your usage, starting with only a couple of days a week to ensure your skin gets used to it so you have to read the instructions very carefully first, before the use.
I will certainly be buying it again and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

I usually use this essence first thing in the morning, right after cleansing. It absorbs really quickly leaving my skin feeling fresh and bouncy, ready for the serum. I've been using it for a few weeks now and my skin is noticeably brighter and no longer dull. I always follow it up with the Caudalie radiance serum.
I am not a fan of the scent though, it is quite strong and musty, which puts me off.

I love the curved brush as it is so much easier to put the mascara on with it. Immediately my lashes look longer and slightly curled. It stays on throughout the day, doesn't clump and doesn't smudge although I have to take extra care to remove it in the evening. -

I have been using this eye cream every day for a month now and I have to say I can't see much difference.
The cream is quite lightweight, easy to absorb, doesn't leave any greasy residue with a pleasant fragrance.
The tub is small, 15ml so it's worth bearing it in mind when searching for a bargain.

The cream comes in a 40ml pump dispenser, which is practical and hygienic. I also really like the texture and the scent which is light and not overwhelming. The cream is of a slightly salmon/apricot colour and it absorbs very easily and quickly, doesn't leave any residue at all. Overall, very lovely and pleasant to use.
However, I was confused when it comes to the usage. I have been using this cream for 8 weeks now, putting it in the morning on the discolorations I have on my face and my hand - I haven't really noticed that much difference so to me the cream is just a more glorified sun block with SPF50. Personally, for my face I would prefer to use a firming or anti-wrinkle cream with SPF30+ rather than just this cream. It is not enough for me to replace my daily moisturiser with the NIVEA Cellular Luminous630 Anti-spot Fluid Cream.

I was very impressed with this product. The tips of the cotton buds are very tightly formed and retain their shape well, the cotton doesn't fray at all and is super absorbent.
I love the idea of the bud stick being made out of paper - it really works well and it is easy to recycle. The stick part remains firm, doesn't bend and it worked well for me.
I am also very impressed with their effort to become more environmentally friendly, just the tub's lid now needs replacing with cardboard.
