Masks -The Body Shop - Vitamin E Sink-In Moisture Mask
rated 4 of 5

I try and use this mask once a week. You hardly need to use any of it - just a small fingers worth. It's very thick and spreads evenly on your skin. You only need a very small amount. I find this mask very useful for my eczema prone skin, but occasionally it stings my skin. I usually clean it off, it doesn't "sink - in" at all as it is very thick. I just wash it off with cleanser. My skin isn't dry after using it, and because you don't need to use so much it lasts for a long time.

Scrubs -Sukin - Facial Scrub
rated 4 of 5

I find it difficult to find scrubs that exfoliate but not excessively. I am prone to mild eczema on my face, and I am always wasting money and time trying to find a gentle scrub that does its job without inflaming my skin. This scrub was perfect, it exfoliated perfectly, and didn't make my skin feel tight, dry and red.

Treatments -The Body Shop - Aloe vera serum
rated 3 of 5

I liked this product, it helped sooth my dry skin and provided an extra layer of moisturiser to my skin as well as my day moisteriser. But other than that it didn't really do anything. The product was quite pointless to me, and although I liked the product the more I used it the more I wondered what it was actually for. I'm not buying this product or any other serum again.

Treatments -The Body Shop - tea tree oil
rated 5 of 5

I've been using this product for about three years. I get blackheads on my nose (which I hate) and every night I cleanse, exfoliate and dab this oil specifically on places where I get blackheads or if I have any pimples that have appeared. I've noticed a dramatic decline in blackheads on my nose, and while there are still some there, the majority disappear within 7 - 8 nights of using it. As for my pimples, tea tree oil is a good anti - septic and it will stop the bacteria from pimples spreading and causing more pimples... The smell is quite strong, and I think most people would probably dislike it. It's best used at night I think, for this reason alone. I don't really like using it every night, as the smell is quite strong for me. But I always come back to this product, and I always make sure I have a bottle in the bathroom.

Lotions/ Creams -Trilogy - Everything Balm
rated 5 of 5

I use this balm as a lip balm, and it is the best lip balm I have ever used. I won't use anything else, and it lasts for ages. I will repurchase - but I'll get the larger size next time. I haven't really used the balm for much else to be honest. I love the smell, the texture of the balm (not greasy) and I love the cute wee tub.

Treatments -Trilogy - Botanical Moisture Masque
rated 4 of 5
wanice18 7/12/2011 2:47:00 AM

I love this masque, it smells divine and it makes my hair so soft. My hair is quite dry and frizzy but after using this I find my hair softer and more manageable. The texture is good and smooth, it's easy to get what you want and I really like the packaging. There is something about tubs that I like...hm.. I put down that I would buy again, but truth is I don't think I can justify buying it regardless of how much I love it. The tub is small, the size I have is 95ml, and it is about NZ $30.00 which is quite prohibitive for me.

Polishes -Revlon - Coral Me Wild

I love the colour! I think it really screams summer. When I applied it, the polish came out smooth without any bubbles. I only needed two coats although you could get away with only one.

Lipstick -Nivea - lip care pearl and shine
rated 1 of 5

I hated this product, it made my lips go white/pale pink which made me look sick and washed out. It didn't help my dry lips at all either. Overall it was a complete waste.
