All Body Beauty Set










This is the beauty set box every woman should get. I bet this is the best present. Beautiful skin from head to toe is possible with this little box containing 9! beauty products. It is amazing, I was over the moon when it arrived. It contains a cordless, easy to hold epilator. Cordless epilator is extremely important for me, because we do not have sockets in our bathrooms and of course I prefer to epilate my sensitive body parts on my own. I can confirm epilating is less painful with this magic sensosmart epilator. Of course I still experience some stinging feeling, but that pain is absolutely bearable. Epilating with Braun is way better than waxing and it is also cleaner and quicker. This set contains even a small very handy face epilator It is small and light, has around 1cm wide head. Perfect for eyebrows and even helps by hormonal changes. If this is not enough both cordless machines have changeable heads for perfect spa experience. I use the face spa electric brush with my favourite anti-ageing serum and the exfoliating brush with my foaming face wash. My daily beauty routine is more enjoyable, quicker and more effective with these handy electric brushes. I have to mention two more parts from this Braun beauty set: the shaver and trimmer to reach and correct even the more outlying fluffs. And the massage pad to finish any satisfying bubble bath. Yes, all the machines are useable wet and dry. This review was collected as part of a promotion. Thanks trnd.uk review panel for sending me this magic box.

Olay Daily Facials












Super Savvy Me website have chosen me to take part in their Savvy Circle project, where I have had the opportunity to try and review the new 5-in-1 cleanser Olay DailyFacials.


My first question was:
What is the meaning of 5-in-1?
-1. Removes makeup
-2. Cleanses away dirt, oil and impurities
-3. Exfoliates like a gentle scrub – thanks to the material of cloths
-4. Improves skin look
-5. Preserves moisture, leaving skin soft and conditioned

My second question was:
Which one to choose?

I tried the latter one, which worked perfectly but my dry skin type felt a little bit dryer after the application. I think it is a normal feeling by people with dry skin conditions. Nothing special, my everyday night cream always solves this “tense” situation perfectly. Next time I will buy Olay Daily Facials Micellar Clean – Sensitive Skin aloe leaf extract.



As an everyday makeup wearer I was more than happy to try this new product. I have to confess I love to apply and even experiment with my makeup but I totally hate to remove it. It is boring, takes long time and need a lot of experience to do it properly and do not end up with clogged pores.
In my opinion, best and quickest makeup removing products are wet wipes. But it happened to me quite often that I accidentally left the bag open and all my wipes dried out. I tried to make them wet again, but the result was not the same.
Olay designed their new cleansing wipes for people like me. Wipes come in dry condition and I myself activate them with some water. Here comes the perfect step by step guide:
-1. Add water to dry cloth
-2. Wash skin with activated, foamy ingredients
-3. Rinse cloth and wipe skin clean
You will be surprised with the amount of dirt these smart wipes remove from your skin. It is a perfect spa facial experience each evening.


Olay Daily Facials even make my holiday packing easier. I just need one handy box of these 5-in-1 cleansing wipes to be sure I return home with flawless, healthy and maybe sunkissed skin.

Ageless Skin










I was invited to take part in new Super Savvy Me project, called Olay Total Effects 7in1. In this fantastic project I tested Olay Total Effects 7n1 Anti-Ageing Day Cream. It is very important to prevent ageing of your skin and start to use anti-ageing skincare products after 25 years old. Remember, prevention is always more effective than cure. If you struggle to find time for more complicate beauty regime, Olay Total Effects are the best anti-ageing skincare for you. Just cleanse your face and massage a small layer of Olay Total Effects Day Cream into your skin. Focus on the three key points: the eye contour area, the jaw-line and the neck. Olay Total Effects moisturises and hydrates your skin perfectly without greasy feeling. It is perfect to apply under my foundation and powder. It keeps my face young and healthy looking during the whole day.


I love Olay products since I first tried those. I have to use high quality skin care on my dry skin to prevent ageing. Unfortunately dry skin ages earlier compared to other skin types. Luckily I love my skin care regime and I never miss a day. I am sure, I would look different without my daily beauty habits and favourite skin care products, like Olay Total Effects. I have even my future beauty plans: I will never ever go out without UVA/UVB protection. Luckily, Olay Total Effects Anti-Ageing Day Cream contains SPF15. Have you known, Olay was the first mass-market skincare brand to offer anti-oxidants and UVA/UVB protection?


Olay Total Effects range is unique because contains VitaNiacin. This formula contains Vitamin B3, Vitamin E and Pro-Vitamin B5. We can find even green tea extracts to protect skin cells against free radical damage.


The whole Olay Total Effects range:
-OlayTotal Effects 7in1 Anti-Ageing Instant Smoothing Serum – smart approach to younger and healthier looking skin that feels as smooth as silk.
-Olay Total Effects Night Firming Moisturiser – multiple age-defying solution for younger looking skin.
-Olay Eyes Ultimate Eye Cream – The skin around eyes is more delicate than on face. Always apply eye cream around your eyes instead of face cream to reduce the appearance of dark circles, puffiness and fine lines. (This eye cream is already on my shopping list.)


What 7in1 means?
One Olay Total Effects product can fight all the seven signs of ageing:
1. Smoothes
2. Evens Tone
3. Brightens
4. Refines the Look of Pores
5. Reduces Age Spots and Wrinkle’s Appearance
6. Restore Firmness
7. Moisturises

Of course, there are even more tips and tricks to slow down ageing besides Olay Total Effects. I am sure, you already know some among them. Consume less refined sugar, but eat plenty of fruit. Consume less salt. Start your days with hot water instead of coffee. And exercise! I realised, my skin cleanses itself during a good, sweaty run. Be careful do not clog your pores with make-up during exercise just apply Olay Total Effects Day Cream before.

Hydra Genius







I am so pleased that skin care industry focuses on hydration nowadays. L’Oreal Paris launched their first daily rehydrating liquid care for dry and sensitive skin. Thanks to La Belle Famille product test panel I have got a full size product to try and review.



Full size means a 70ml big bottle, because you are advised to use the product daily two times. The first impression was more than positive because L’Oreal Paris Hydra Genius Aloe Water comes in glass bottle with a pump. I love glass bottled and heavy skin care product – it means higher quality for me and love to see myself to use them. Pump is fantastic as well because it is clean; no mess; cream never goes under your nails. I am impressed with turquoise colour too. This bottle looks extremely high quality.


After examining the packaging I cannot wait to try the cream. L’Oreal Paris Hydra Genius Aloe Water has very pleasant fragrance – nice light Aloe Vera scent. It contains Aloe Vera Sap which helps maintain skin’s water reserves, rich in minerals and perfect moisturiser. The second most important ingredient is Hyaluronic Acid which founds naturally in the skin and can hold 1,000 times its weight in water. Summarising in one sentence, L’Oreal Paris Hydra Genius Aloe Water hydrates the skin (thanks Aloe Vera) and locks-in moisture for 72 hours (thanks extra Hyaluronic Acid). Do not worry, it cannot overload the skin. It is the chemistry behind this fantastic product and my experiences say the same: Yes, it works! My skin is so soft, healthy and hydrated. Anyway I have dry and sensitive skin. I should be very careful with skin care. But L’Oreal ParisHydra Genius Aloe Water pampers my skin. It absorbs very quickly because it has light water based consistency and one pump is totally enough to treat my face and neck.

Fine Flowers








I have dry and sensitive skin so finding the perfect face cleanser is one of the biggest challenge for me. Cleansers usually contain ingredients like tea tree, eucalyptus to achieving the best result. These ingredients work perfectly on normal skin and are absolute necessities for oily skin types. But dry and sensitive skin becomes flaky, itchy and even fine lines and wrinkles appear. Sometimes I should stop to use my new cleanser after first use, because my skin feels extremely uncomfortable.


L’Oreal’s new Fine Flowers cleansing range is for dry & sensitive skin. La Belle Famille panel sent me a cleanser milk and toner to try and review.
FineFlowers cleansing range contains Rose and Jasmine. These natural ingredients are perfect on dry and sensitive skin. Rose has soothing and comforting properties. Jasmine moisturises and protects.


I start with Fine Flowers cleansing milk to remove my makeup and any dirt from my pores. One pump is enough to clean my face and neck. I apply this gentle and soft milk with my fingers and massage my face and neck to help remove any daily impurities. You can apply it gently with a cotton pad. Do not rub your face, this fantastic milk removes everything softly. I love the light consistency and nice light floral fragrance. My skin is soft and clean and the most important: hydrated.


After cleaning my face with Fine Flowers Milk I wipe my face and neck with Fine Flowers Toner. This product is better as other toners because it has thicker consistency. It is easier to apply on a cotton pad. Leaking or applying too much liquid is impossible. Fine Flowers Toner has nice floral fragrance as well.
After cleaning my totally clean looking face I am always wondering how dirty the cotton pad becomes. It is very important to clean your face every evening and morning before applying your moisturisers and serums. Creams cannot absorb and impact when there are impurities in pores.

L’Oreal Fine Flowers Milk and Toner leaves my skin perfectly hydrated and soft so I can concentrate on wrinkle elimination and youth activation. I can put on youth serums before bed and do not need to worry about extra hydration. Of course I wake up with better looking and younger looking face.
