Great budget-friendly shower foam!
Just like the other scent variants in By Lyko's foaming shower gel series, Crisp Bouquet comes out as a gel that foams up to a mousse. However, I found that it was a bit more liquid at first than expected, but once it comes into contact with the skin, it develops into a fine foam. It feels luxurious to use and is quite similar to Rituals’ shower foams. At the same time, it leaves the skin soft and pleasant after the shower without feeling drying, which I really appreciate. The scent reminds me a bit of Rituals of Sakura – a clean and light floral scent that feels fresh and feminine without being heavy. It’s not exactly the same, but it lies in the same scent universe, so if you like that type of soft floral scents, you will probably also enjoy this one. Since Lyko often runs half price on By Lyko products, I would personally definitely consider this as a more budget-friendly alternative. You get a similar luxurious feeling in the shower for a significantly lower price. All in all, a really nice shower foam that leaves the skin soft and well-cared for. #lykoinflutester #bylyko1 product in post Great budget-friendly shower foam!64 views - The post was made 1 monthRating: 5 out of 5Verifierad testare
So delicious!
Just like the other fragrance variants in By Lyko's foaming shower gel series, Lemon Aid has the same delicious consistency, where the product comes out as a gel and quickly foams up into a rich mousse. It reminds me a lot of Rituals' shower foams in texture, but without leaving my skin dry. On the contrary, my skin feels soft and pleasant after the shower. I expected a more classic lemon scent based on the name, but it actually smells more like mandarin or clementine. It surprised me a bit, but in a really good way. The scent is fresh, fruity, and lightly sweet without being heavy or artificial. I generally prefer fruity/floral scents, so this one fits my personal taste really well. It feels fresh and uplifting and works perfectly for a morning shower. All in all, a really delicious shower foam that feels a bit luxurious to use and at the same time leaves the skin soft and well-cared for. #lykoinflutester #bylyko1 product in post So delicious!66 views - The post was made 1 monthRating: 4 out of 5Verifierad testare
Great formula
I was honestly quite surprised by the scent of Caramel Crush. It smells exactly like you would imagine something called caramel – like pure caramel sauce. Very authentic and very gourmand. I usually prefer fruity/floral scents and was therefore a bit nervous about whether the heavy, sweet caramel scent would linger on the skin in a somewhat "icky sweet" way. Fortunately, it did not. Although you can still catch a whiff of the caramel after the shower, it is much cleaner and milder on the skin than you would think. It doesn't become cloying or heavy, but rather soft and pleasant. The consistency is very reminiscent of Rituals' shower foams – it comes out like a gel and lathers up to a rich mousse. I sometimes find that Rituals' variants leave my skin a bit dry afterward, but I didn't have that problem at all here. On the contrary, my skin felt soft and pleasant after the shower. Due to the scent profile, it probably won't be my absolute favorite, but if you love Sol de Janeiro Cheirosa 62 or Vanilla Sky from Skylar, I'm almost sure you'll be wild about it. #lykoinflutester #bylyko1 product in post Great formula70 views - The post was made 4 monthsRating: 3 out of 5Verifierad testare
Good and long-lasting, but not a miracle
Olaplex No. 5 is a really long-lasting conditioner, and you need far less than you would normally use with, for example, L’Oréal. I found that about a quarter of the amount I usually use was plenty – and it works best to add a little extra water to the hair rather than more product. It has a mild, clean scent and a concentrated consistency, but without being heavy or greasy. It leaves the hair soft and easy to comb through, and it didn’t irritate my scalp. Even though it’s nice and long-lasting, I don’t think the results were significantly better than cheaper conditioners I’ve tried. It does what it’s supposed to do, but it wasn’t a miracle product for me. #lykoinflutester #olaplex1 product in post Good and long-lasting, but not a miracle910 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator.

Good, but not a gamechanger
I think Olaplex No. 4 was a nice shampoo. It has a mild citrus scent that is pleasant without being overwhelming. One of the first things I noticed is how incredibly concentrated it is. The amount I would normally use from, for example, L’Oréal, I only needed about a quarter of here. It definitely works better to add more water than more product - I learned that the hard way when I ended up with foam everywhere. Even though the price is high, you use so little at a time that it can make sense if you are in the target group for this type of shampoo. That said, I don’t think it did anything extraordinary for my thick natural hair that a cheaper shampoo couldn’t have done as well. Nice, but not a gamechanger for me personally #lykoinflutester #olaplex1 product in post Good, but not a gamechanger917 views- The user's roll: Lyko Creator. The comment was made 1 monthSo annoying!

Mild and effective
Mamonde Amazing Deep Mint Cleansing Balm is a really nice cleanser that leaves the skin clean without feeling “stripped” or tight. It has a clean, fresh scent that makes it pleasant to use, and the balm melts easily on the skin, providing a gentle yet effective cleanse. I don’t wear heavy makeup, but it easily removes concealer and sunscreen. Therefore, I can’t comment on its ability to take off mascara or more long-lasting/heavier products. Because it has a light scent, I would personally be a bit cautious about using it too close to the eye area if one is very sensitive. Other than that, it works really well and leaves the skin soft, clean, and comfortable. #mamonde #lykotestpilot1 product in post Mild and effective56 views - The post was made 4 monthsRating: 2 out of 5
Potentially too much of a good thing
Mamonde Pore Shrinker Bakuchiol Cream unfortunately was not a match for my skin. I have dry and sensitive skin, and already after a short time of use, it broke me out. I don't know if my skin reacted to the combination of both bakuchiol and retinol, or if it was something menthol-like in the formula that I have previously tended to break out from. Either way, it quickly felt like it was simply too much for my skin barrier. It's extra unfortunate because the consistency is really nice, being a hybrid between a gel-cream and a regular cream, which feels both light and gives a bit of fullness. For me, it was therefore too potent and too irritating, but if you have a more robust skin type, the combination of bakuchiol and retinol might yield good results. For dry, sensitive skin, I would be extra cautious. #mamonde #lykotestpilot1 product in post Potentially too much of a good thing58 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 4 monthsHi Nadia! 👋 Thank you for sharing your experience! 💕 It's unfortunate that the cream was too strong for your dry and sensitive skin. The combination of bakuchiol and retinol can definitely be a bit much for some skin types, but it's a shame it didn't become a favorite.

Moisture Bomb
I was really positively surprised by the Mamonde Flora Glow Rose Liquid Mask. I used it after cleansing and instead of my toner step, and already after the first use it left my skin soft, hydrated, and soothed. That’s quite impressive, as I usually only get that effect from heavier creams, since I have very dry skin. The texture is very watery, but at the same time “rich” and pleasant, as it absorbs quickly without leaving the skin sticky. The result was a thoroughly hydrated and more glowing skin that felt ready for the rest of my routine. This is definitely a product I will buy again and that I can warmly recommend to others with dry skin who want something light yet effective. That being said, the scent is very distinctly rose – like “straight up rose water”. So if you don’t like floral scents, especially roses, it’s probably not the right match. But if you love rose water and at the same time want a moisture boost, it’s really lovely. #mamonde #lykotestpilot1 product in post Moisture Bomb79 views - The post was made 4 monthsRating: 2 out of 5Verifierad testare
Not quite the miracle I was hoping for.
I was looking forward to trying this, as I have seen it everywhere on social media. The design is super pretty with its reflective silver look, and the spray disperses very nicely – which is a big plus for this type of styling product. Unfortunately, I’m not a fan of the scent, which is quite sharp and alcoholic. I have thick and coarse hair, and even though I followed the instructions and used it while blow-drying, I unfortunately didn’t feel that it made any real difference. My hair didn’t look any smoother, shinier, or more moisturized than usual. I think the product might be better suited for a different hair type than mine. Due to the lack of results, I haven’t included any before and after pictures, as there simply wasn’t a visible difference to show. However, I haven’t completely given up yet - I’m thinking of experimenting a bit more over the next few weeks to see if I can find a way it works better for me. #lykoinflutester #colorwow1 product in post Not quite the miracle I was hoping for.224 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 4 monthsHey Nadia 👋 Thank you so much for your detailed review! It's a shame that the product didn't quite meet your expectations, I hope you can find a way to make it more effective! My best tip for this product is to use more of it than you think - I get the best results when I really saturate my hair with the spray. Fingers crossed that this trick works just as well for you 🤞🥰 All the best!1 likes

Gentle and effective
Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant has the same nice and minimalist design as the rest of Dermalogica's products – simple, sleek, and luxurious to have on display. I usually prefer chemical exfoliants, as I have dry and sometimes sensitive skin with a tendency to breakouts, and physical exfoliants often irritate my skin. Fortunately, I didn't experience that at all with this one. Daily Microfoliant left my skin soft and smooth without damaging the skin barrier or causing irritation, which really surprised me positively. At first, I thought it seemed expensive for an exfoliant, but because you only need to use a little product at a time, it's actually easy to justify the price. If you use it 2-3 times a week, there's easily enough product for over a year, which makes it much more economical than I initially thought. All in all, Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant is a gentle yet effective exfoliating product that leaves skin soft without irritation. It feels luxurious, and I could definitely see myself buying it again when my supply runs out. #dermalogica #lykoinflutester1 product in post Gentle and effective226 views
