The bd team reveal exactly what they thought about the beauty products they tried out this week.
Surely I'm not alone when I say that maintaining perfectly-shaped brows can be a tedious process. Between salon visits (which, when you have a busy schedule, can be pretty far apart), I often find myself rushing around in the mornings trying to locate my tweezers to pluck the stray hairs in a bid to look presentable. Then I decided to trial Waxaway's Precision Wax Wand, a waxing stick ideal for facial areas. It's a simple and convenient solution for ridding unwanted hair - especially when time and money is tight. I'm definitely a novice when it comes to DIY waxing, but the applicator wand made applying the wax to the exact area I wanted a breeze. The package also comes with comprehensive and easy-to-follow waxing steps for beginners like me. There was also after care wipes to soothe the skin and remove residue, as well as a paste to help prevent and eliminate in-grown hairs - a whole salon treatment in the comfort of your home! - Eliza
Volum’ Express Mega Plush Mascara
I love a mascara that really curls the lashes. The Maybelline Volum’ Express Mega Plush Mascara is a gel-mousse mascara that not only gives great curl, but also volumises and lengthens. One thing I loved about this mascara was its patent flexor brush and shock absorbing stem applicator that was quite bendy, allowing me to evenly coat my lashes leaving them looking luscious and full. This mascara has definitely been added to my everyday cosmetics case (which seems to be overflowing!) - Maddie
Who doesn’t want to experience being rescued at least once in their life? And if it’s not going to arrive in the form of a man in shining armour riding in on his horse, then why not arrive in two bottles instead?! bhave’s rescue shampoo and conditioner combination is my rescuer. My hair has been feeling dead, a little static, and frizzy, but this night in shining armour duo is making my hair feel fabulous again. With functional keratin in the formulas, the products work to fix the hair from the inside out, leaving it feeling smooth, healthy and repaired. In the shower, the shampoo has a creamy lather that leaves the hair feeling clean, while the conditioner makes the hair feel like silk in an instant. Another great thing about the duo is that they have different coloured lids so you know which product is your shampoo and which is your conditioner without having to read the labels! - Liz
Xtreme Lashes Total Eye Repair Serum
http://www.beautydirectory.com.au/brands/a-z/2801-Xtreme-Lashes-by-Jo-Mo...
Products that promise multiple benefits are my kryptonite, so Xtreme Lashes Total Eye Repair Serum is my newest fixation. Addressing those pesky fine lines, sagging skin and puffiness, this little potion seriously knows how to multi-task and the payoff is instant. The oil-free, cooling serum glides on and doesn’t cake or snag like some eye creams, making that ever-so-delicate skin around the eye area feel hydrated, smooth and visibly plumper. Containing all the power stuff such as multi-peptide complex to stimulate collagen production and a hyaluronic acid to ensure that those benefits are long lasting, this is one little bottle that will be staying put on my bathroom shelf - Nat
Pelactiv Ultimate Protection SPF50+
This face and body spray arrived on my desk in perfect timing as I’m about to head on a sailing trip in Croatia and was on the hunt for a good sunscreen. The Ultimate Protection SPF50+ Face & Body Spray has absolutely everything I was looking for - it offers the new higher level of protection, rubs in easily and doesn’t feel thick on your skin, can be used on both the face and body (so no need to pack multiple products), is easy to apply due to the spray nozzle, and is water resistant (so I don’t need to worry about jumping off the boat into the water). Pelactiv, you’ve made me very happy (and protected!). - Yelena
