John Frieda Frizz Ease All-in-1 Original Serum
I used to use this a lot in my late teens before I bought strainers. I'm now in my 40s and my love has been rekindled. I honestly forgot how good this stuff is and a must have for any hair SOS! Remember girls, a little goes a looooong way x

I was really excited to try these as I am forever getting tangled in cords and I wanted something that would be with me everywhere I go. When I received this it was packaged as a luxury product as expected from the price tag. The box was beautifully presented with all the accessories you would expect and the carry case is very well designed. It all looks amazing but...
Unfortunately it doesn't live up to it's luxurious appearance. Although I was eager to get my locks in these straighteners, I made sure they had a full charge. The magnetic lead is really easy to attach and I left them over night. They have an audible alarm to let you know they are turned on and 3 different heat settings. They seem larger and heavier than what I’m used to but that didn’t really affect the handling. I have thick, long wavy hair and found I was spending longer even on the highest heat setting. Because I was spending more time than usual, I noticed that the charge depleted really fast so I would only get one full use per charge but they would probably be ok for a few frizz tamers on the go also the heat seems to decrease the longer you use them. All in all, they look great, they work OK but I have to say they are a bit disappointing.
Summary – great for short or fine hair, lacking in power and heat for thicker, longer hair.

I was interested in trying this cleanser after reading all the great reviews and I must say it does live up to the hype. I love how it feels when I'm washing my face and it's soo gentle (almost like using baby soap) and I'm generally not a fan of fragrance but this one is so subtle and adds to the experience. My skin is left so smooth and still clean with no feeling of tightness. I also love that you can open your eyes mid-cleanse and it doesn't sting at all! Such a pleasure to use!! -

This is the 2nd kippy I have ordered as the 1st one did not arrive.
First Impressions:
The box and the tracker look really high quality.
The device:
It came with a velcro strap which is the only way to attach to the collar. I was hoping for a secure silicone attachment that the tracker slipped in an out of like I've seen on other devices. I didn't feel confident that the strap would be secure as I have a very hairy dog and the strap needs to be taken off regular for charging. The charging dock is not the best design, there has been a few occasions where I have though the unit was in the dock but it has slipped out. The subscription for the GPS is quite expensive but as far as I can tell, it is fairly accurate when it works correctly. I wanted this tracker over others because this one offers physical activity tracking and I pay a lot of money for my dog to be walked when I'm at work so of course I want to know where he is and what he's up to!
I didn't have a problem with the size of the tracker as my dog is a giant breed so it went unnoticed. I tried to set up a geofence as I have done in the past with different trackers but the app never alerted me when the dog had left the house/garden to go with the daily dog walker. I only managed to track him live once because they phoned me to tell me he was out.
The tracker seems to go into standby mode and I don't know how to get round this but it doesn't register on the app at all when you click to 'go live' I have been getting random VITA messages about my dogs activity and notifications mainly telling me that the kippy can't be connected. The tracker has been sat on the side for the past few days but the range of the tracking history has wandered over a 200m distance on the map.
From the box arriving I was very excited because I thought I had a quality product that would do everything I wanted but I have been left disappointed and feel that this tracker needs a lot of improvement and just simply is not worth the money at the moment

As soon as I had a spare fifteen minutes, I had a lie down and put the first one to the test. The mask was easy to unwrap and I could feel it warming as I was putting it on. Within less than a minute, I was pleasantly surprised by a lovely warm sensation and the gentle aroma. It was a very calming and relaxing experience. I've had a bit of headache today, and though the mask wasn't near the affected area, I did feel better after. The instructions were easy to follow and the price for seven masks is quite reasonable. I will definitely be getting these again. However, there was no instruction on how best to dispose of these single use masks, so regretfully, I deducted a star. However, this is a small thing, easily put right. I think next time I will try the lavender ones. -

At first I used this as a standalone shampoo in place of my own but I felt it didn't clean my hair properly so the next time I sued it after washing my hair with my current shampoo and the results were a lot better. I can definitely notice a difference in my bleached hair and the violet pigment does adjust the sharper yellow tones. I really love the look of the liquid, a very shiny purple with an iridescent flick and the viscosity is perfect. Very pleasant smelling unlike some purple shampoos. -

I work in quite a dirty environment so I always struggle with dirt and grime in my visibly enlarged pores. I tried these and was really impressed with the amount of dirt they pulled out. To make them even more effective, I found it is best to apply them after you have had a hot shower when the pores on your face are more open. Do not leave it on for too long though, as it is quite painful to peel off. -

Just a brilliant face wash that has a nice foaming action with a pleasant clean smell. Does exactly what it says it will and leaves skin clean, fresh and wonderfully soft. I am prone to combination skin with oily TZone and this sorts out all areas well. just one pump is enough to massage into the face and after a little while you can really feel the witch hazel with a little zing sensation. Washes away really well with no residual residue. -

This spray is the best I've found for cutting through grease. I do a lot of cooking including using cast iron pans with saturated fats, or deep frying with refined oils, and this spray is the only thing which can cut through all the splatters without a huge amount of effort on my part.
I use it on virtually every surface (glass hob, counter top, stainless steel, etc.) and it works beautifully.
The only problem is sometimes it is expensive so I only buy it when it's around £1.50 per bottle.
