This is Max Factor's first refillable mascara and as far as I'm aware it's the only such mascara in local drugstores. This makes it quite a big tube, since they had to fit in the refill that's close to a size of a regular mascara without a cap and it has more weight to it too. The outer casing looks more premium than an average mascara in the drugstore and feels like it will survive a long time before showing signs of wear. As far as I know there's only a regular version of the formula - pity, since it's the type of formula that doesn't suit my lashes well, but it's one of the more volumising formulas on the market.

The silicone brush has an hourglass design that is very similar to the one at Milani's Anti Gravity mascara. Freshly opened this was an overly wet formula that quickly made the lashes stick together, so I let this one sit in the drawer for a few months, waiting for it to thicken and dry a bit. It got better, but it's still not the best performer for my type of lashes. It creates a lot of volume even with the first coat - this really gives that big lash effect, but it has a tendency to stick the lashes together if you don't wait between coats or build it up too much - the sticking lessens when it's several months old.

It's doesn't hold the lashes curled, like most regular mascaras it drops freshly curled lashes like most. Strangely it's very difficult to remove, like waterproof formulas, meaning it needs oil. My normally great performance cleanser Nuxe Very Rose oil struggles with it, so a good dual-phase oil remover is needed. It runs in contact with tears and it irritated my eyes on a couple of occasions, it's also somewhat oily, so my glass lenses are constantly smudged (this won't be an issue for most).

The refill pops out easily, so replacement is not difficult. The volume and length it creates is great, this is a good choice if you love big lashes, but since it tends to smudge my glasses, I prefer to reach for Max Factor's 2000 Calorie instead (that one is less volumising than this one FYI).

A gloss with a high SPF. It's a smooth, somwhat oily feeling formula and doesn't stick to the lips quite as well as some other lip oil brands I've tried. This formula reminds me most of Essence's Cranberry Lip oil, but the original one, since I never tried the new one. It's almost fully opaque with one coat and the shade is a nice medium muted rosy one. It doesn't last as long as I hoped, but it's decent enough. It has no SPF bitter taste.

A repurchase. I had the full size for years and barely used a half, so this time I got a mini. It's the best lip overnight mask I've tried. It fixes very dry lips and it has a buttery formula that gives a nice gloss to the lips. It can stay on the lips overnight. Scent is nothing specially, softy sweet. At the full size you get a silicone applicator that is a must at all such pot lip masks - here you get nothing.

I've been using COSRX Galactomyces 95 Tone Balancing Essence for years and the price almost doubled since I started buying it, so I decided to check the competition. This one has only three ingredients Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate, Butylene Glycol and 1,2-Hexanediol. It's thinner than COSRX, more like a basic toner, but it feels nicely hydrating and pleasant on the skin. It has no scent. So far I like it, maybe not as much as COSRX, but it's half the price. I already repurchased a backup.

A gift with purchase, but I already used up two of these and I'd repurchase it anyway. It's a gel-lotion overnight mask with propolis and plenty of nice ingredients. I don't think it makes my skin glow (its original promise), but it's deeply hydrating and calming, since it has a lot of centella asiatica. It's scent-free.

A repurchase. I got this originally as a gift with purchase and liked it. It's got the retinol alternative bakuchiol and as is usual for Asian cosmetics a ton of nice ingredients. It's composed out of a liquid part and tiny capsules that burst when rubbed into the skin. It's richer than a basic serum even though the texture feels thin, but it's somewhat oily and feels nourishing. It's got the scent an odd, musty scent of lavender. The dropper packaging isn't great at such a formula, as it often struggles to suck up product and when it's close to empty it's difficult getting the rest out.

This is a mini that was a gift with purchase, but I have this in a full size version and I use it every day. It's a rich toner that feels hydrating and soothing. Centella Asiatica is second on the list, plus Trehalose, Hyaluronic Acid, Madecassoside, Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid, Madecassic Acid, Panthenol, Allantoin and Arginine. It's scent free.

All Asian sunscreens I've tried where light and non-greasy - this is completely different. It was one of the cheapest SPF's and I saw no reviews before putting it in my cart, but this is a thick sunscreen that takes effort to blend in and it leaves a white cast. But it is waterproof and the texture makes it feel more reliable, especially if you're on the beach.

The pump is such a big plus at this sunscreen, plus it's good value for money since it's 140 ml - provided you use it just for the face like me (I use Sun Dance for the body). Texture is very liquid, lightweight and watery. It has some alcohol smell, which isn't ideal, but it has hyaluronic acid in many forms and collagen.

I've used up four of these. I use this daily all over the face, but concentrated around the eyes. It has everything from hydrolysed collagen, niacinamide, centella asiatica, a ton of extracts, allantoin, adenosine, ceramides, peptides, arganine…. It's a medium thick cream and it sits on the skin for a time.

I already used up such a travel size and I wanted to repurchase a full size (which is actually just 10 ml and this is 5 ml), but it was out of stock, so I bought another smaller size. It's a nice, rich and silky-feeling eye cream that feels nicely nourishing under the eyes. The ingredients list is a long as my arm.

I have the purple collagen one which quickly became a favourite, so I ordered this version too. The pump makes such a difference to me, it makes me use lotion far more often that I usually do and I ended up mostly using it as a hand cream, though I like it for face too. Formula is lightweight and absorbs quickly, but it's nicely hydrating . There are many versions - this one has mostly centella asiatica leaf water along Squalane, Asiaticoside, Madecassic Acid, Asiatic Acid, Propolis Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Melaleuca Alternifolia (Tea Tree) Leaf Extract, Hippophae Rhamnoides Fruit Extract, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Beta-Glucan and other ingredients.

I got this for mom or maybe I'll keep it since she's more into basic creams and skin care minimalism. It's one of the cheapest serums on Stylevana, but still very impressive when it comes to ingredients. It has collagen and several peptides. I'll report about texture if I decide to keep it myself.

Same story as the serum, again something I got for mom if I manage to convince to use it. It's very affordable and has a similar ingredients list as the serum.

I got these two for mom, so I likely won't try them myself, but they are some of the most affordable classic moisturisers on Stylevana and there are many versions. Pots have 100 ml. Ginseng Retinol has niacinamide, shea butter, arganine, adenosine, ginseng and retinol in an unknown percentage. Collagen one has similar ingredients with niacinamide and shea butter plus collagen, ceramide, hyaluronic acid and centella asiatica.

This was a gift with purchase and I haven't used it yet. Ingredients look simple, hydrating with hyaluronic acid, arganine and collagen.

A tinted moisturiser that combines a serum and pigment-infused pearls. It can be used on its own or as a base. You're supposed to crush the pearls and mix them with the serum - Bourjois suggests doing this on the back of your hand, though I also applied it directly to my face. My first impression in the shop wasn’t great (it blended oddly on my hand), so I didn’t plan to get it myself, but I was wrong to dismiss it. It's such a natural-looking “no-makeup makeup” product that feels like a hydrating moisturiser and subtly evens out the skin tone. It's excellent for those who don't like the look of makeup or don't want to appear like they are wearing any.

Texture: This is very liquid and just runs of the skin when squeezed out. It contains very small tinted pearls that busts quickly under fingers, but it takes a lot of blending to get the tint and serums to mix together properly. It looks wet for a long time before the serum finally sinks in the application looks even. This is not a product you can apply quickly. It takes ages with fingers and it can still look a bit unblended in places, but you save product with this method. Using a sponge is quicker and more even, but you use 3x more product. I haven't tried it with a brush, mostly because I had a feeling it won't work.

Coverage and finish: Finish is glowy and fresh, coverage is minimal, but the skin looks noticeably better. For my taste I'd only add some concealer under the eyes, but otherwise it's enough for me. Most will want to set it, as it will also aid the staying power of such a hydrating formula that doesn't really set, meaning it's prone to wiping off when you touch the face. It also migrates into lines without powder.

Shade: 01 Fair fits me well, but this is a low level coverage product, so the shades are forgiving to a degree. While 51.2W at Serum is noticeably too dark for me and 50 C at foundation is a undertone mismatch, this shade looks best from Bourjois bases on me.

The packaging is a plastic bottle with an airless pump.

*PR products. Unpaid promotion.

A repurchase. This cushion is my perfect shade match, but also it's a great formula for dry skin that looks natural and has SPF. Coverage is about medium with a small amount on the sponge and it blends with ease. It's a great compact for a quick application. Finish is glowy in a non-greasy way. It has niacinamide high on the list, then centella asiatica, several extracts and oils, adenosine, and ceramides.

A repurchase. This replaced A'PIEU Madecassoside Fluid 2x for me, as I can't find it anymore and it was apparently discontinued. The have similar ingredients focused on Centella Asiatica, meaning this is a soothing, hydrating product. Textures are also very similar, as both are somewhere between a toner and a light serum. Centella Asiatica is second on the list, plus Trehalose, Hyaluronic Acid, Madecassoside, Asiaticoside, Asiatic Acid, Madecassic Acid, Panthenol, Allantoin and Arginine. I already bought a backup, since I use it every day.

A repurchase . They made some changes to the packaging, but I haven't checked it the textures are the same - it looks the same. I've been using this every day for many years. It's a hydrating liquid that's easy to layer and contains all the good stuff - ceramides, different versions of hyaluronic acid, extracts, aminoacids, cholesterol,…. Bottle has a generous 500 ml that lasts quite a while. It has no scent.

I repurchased this after trying a travel size. It's a product that promises to make the skin more glowy and features a combination of NAD+, salmon PDRN and 50 types of peptides. This has a type of shimmer in it (Numbuzin says it's derived from vitamin B12 and ceramides) and that gives an instant slight glow to the skin. Otherwise it's just a light toner. 

Another product I got after trying a travel size. It again has NAD+ and 50 peptides plus a bunch of other stuff. It's a lotion-serum that's easily absorbed and layered.

A sleeping mask with soothing ingredients - cica complex, ceramides, panthenol and squlane. Texture is rich, but not greasy. I use it as the last step in my routine. A great new find and I already got a backup.

A gift with purchase. It's a serum with 10% niacinamide, 6% tranexamic acid and retinal (no percentage stated). I haven't opened it yet because I'm currently using another similar serum that I also got as a GWP - that one is from Medicube (TXA Niacinamide 15 Serum). Purito has two layers or textures, a dual-phase product where the top layers appears to be an oil. 

Another gift with purchase, which I haven't opened yet, but it's from the same line as the toner I use and has similar ingredients.

A repurchase. I got this once as a gift with purchase and immediately liked it, so I got a backup. The pads have two sides - one has a quilted design and it's soft as I expected, but the other has a sort of rough mesh that feels like a great manual exfoliator. Formula feels hydrating as first, by my dry skin soon needs more. It has some extracts, salicylic acid (it says Salicylate so BHA), Madecassoside and Tea Tree oil. The pads smell like tea tree oil.

A repurchase. This is one of my favourite sunscreens, though by now I have tried so many pleasant, lightweight ones. It has niacinamide, squalane, centella asiatica, adenosine, hyaluronic acid, collagen, glutathione, beta-glucan and madecasoside. This is very light, one of the lightest SPFs I've tried and it has a modest amount of shine.

I bought this because at the time it was under 3€ and it ended up great. It's another very lightweight, no-greasy formula with not much shine. It has no scent.

This quickly became such a big favourite of mine that I ordered two other versions. The pump makes such a difference to me, it makes me use lotion far more often that I usually do and I ended up mostly using it as a hand cream, though I like it for face too. Formula is lightweight and absorbs quickly, but it's nicely hydrating . There are many versions - this one has mostly centella asiatica leaf water along with collagen, madecassic acid, tea tree and other ingredients. It has no scent.

Last year I got this as a gift with purchase and though my bottle isn't finished yet, I repurchased it. It's described as a skin care booster and it contains micro needles that "help absorption and skin revitalisation". This is one of the weakest versions and there are various strengths. It's not meant to be used on its own, but as a base and it aids other skin care to work better. It feels slightly scratchy when you apply it, but it's not irritating. I use it in combination with hydrating products and sheet masks. Aside from cica reedle needle it also has niacinamide, macadamia oil, adenosine, hyaluronic acid, centella asiatica, propolis, madecassoside and amino acids.

A repurchase. I've been using it every day for quite a few years now. It's a rich toner-like product with 95% ferments (galactomyces) and rest are niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, panthenol, allantoin, adenosine and a handful of fillers. It has no scent. It improved my skin long ago when I started using it, but it's main benefit is described as giving the skin a glow. Now it just maintains my skin in nice condition.

I have the capsule gel cream that feels like a thick sleeping mask. I like it, but since it's in a pot, it's a bit of hassle getting the spoon to scoop the product and cleaning it every time. So I got the serum instead - it's more popular than the cream I believe. It's a brightening, "rejuvenating" formula with salmon PDRN, peptides, niacinamide, collagen and more. I still have plenty of cream left, so this will get its turn when I use it up.

I got this as a gift with purchase, but I've been seeing it plenty online. It's got the retinol alternative bakuchiol and as is usual for Asian cosmetics a ton of nice ingredients. It's composed out of a liquid part and tiny capsules that burst when rubbed into the skin. It's richer than I expected, the texture feels thin, but it's somewhat oily and feels nourishing. It's got the scent an odd, musty scent of lavender. The dropper packaging isn't great at such a formula, as it often struggles to suck up product. I already repurchased this serum.

I've used up two of these so far and I'm currently nearing the end of the third. I use this daily all over the face, but concentrated around the eyes. It has everything from hydrolysed collagen, niacinamide, centella asiatica, a ton of extracts, allantoin, adenosine, ceramides, peptides, arganine…. It's a medium thick cream and it sits on the skin for a time. I can't claim I noticed any "age-rewind" effects, but it suits my skin.

My Catrice's eye roller went off and got a rancid smell, so I got this instead. It's got three metal massaging balls that feel cooling during applications. I've had a few of similar eye creams (packaging-wise), but this is the richest and nicest one. It feels properly nourishing, it stays on the skin for a while and feels refreshing without feeling too light for my dry skin. There are several versions available, aside from Collagen there's also Retinol (red), Placenta (green) and Gold Snail (Gold).

I think this is exclusive to Stylevana or at least that's how they market it there. You get a very decent amount of products to trial before deciding to buy full sizes - which I did for three of the products.

A toner that promises glow, it has a ton of of ingredients including 50 types of peptides. It has very tiny shimmer in it, so it creates an instant glow effect. Formula feels nicely hydrating and just very pleasant. I ordered a big size.

Another product with an insanely long ingredients list (and also 50 types of peptides). It a lotion that doesn't feel heavy and is easy to layer, but it's also nourishing enough for my skin. I like this just like the toner and I ordered the full size.

I really like the texture of this eye cream, it feels nicely nourishing under the eyes. I was and still am seriously considering buying the full size, but I resent it has much less product that other eye creams. It's another product with a list of ingredients as long as my arm.

There are two pairs of patches in this set. I haven't tried them yet, but they have great ingredients. They mention collagen and that these patches depuff, brighten and plump up fine lines.

I loved this mask. It had a massive amount of essence, it was dripping with the stuff. It's in two parts - the top part reaches down to the lips, while the lower fits over the part of the neck and the lower part of the face and it's hooked around the ears. It left my skin nicely hydrated and feeling comfortable, I can't say about much else, maybe just that it had a healthy, hydrated glow.

One of the new products. It can be removed with just warm water, which is why I got it. It's a mascara that needs some time to become volumising as when it's new the formula is too thin to create significant volume. Once it dries a bit, it becomes a more typical Catrice mascara, one that creates let's say a medium amount of volume with two coats. I always get it on the skin around the eyes, which either has to do with the brush or my clumsiness. There was some smudging due to sunscreen and I think maybe a BB cream, it can also crumble if there's tears and you rub your eyes. 

I bought this after Catrice's one didn't really wow me and this was recommended to me. It's another new product for spring and there are several versions of Lashes Without Limits mascaras, not all are tubing ones. The brush is a silicone one with a pretty basic design. It's more volumising when new than Catrice's version and the formula is not as thin. The volume doesn't reach the levels of some of their popular formulas such as Lash Princess and for a mascara that boasts with adding length I notice nothing special. As far as smudging and flaking goes - it the same as at Catrice; it can smudge in contact with something oily and flakes at times. It's easily removed with warm water and no remover is needed - that's the biggest plus for me, even if I don't find it that amazing in terms of effect. It doesn't hold my lashes up.

I have this one in my bag and Catrice in makeup table, so I use them interchangeably. Essence wins. I've had both for months, I use them all the time and Essence's has a more impressive effect in terms of volume. 

These are designed to be matte semi-opaque lip colours that look blurred. I haven't tried a lipstick like it, but it reminds me Revlon's Cloud liquid lipstick. Neutral colours look very natural in terms of texture on the lips, but at vivid shades on my lips they catch on ridges, leaving somewhat uneven look - to be fair I think it can only be seen from close up. 010 Mochi Mauve and 020 Raspberry Rush look very similar on me and very natural, like my lips-but-better. 060 Brown Butter is also very similar, just deeper. 030 Peach Blush adds a touch of a peachy hue and again is more on the neutral no-make-look side. 040 Cashmere Cherry is the only shade that has some vibrancy and creates a nice soft red lips look. Formula is very lightweight, it needs several layers for good opacity and isn't the type of formula that's particularly hydrating, but it's also no drying. Staying power isn't the best even at the red shade.

A creamy collection of liners. Pigmentation isn't fully opaque with one stroke, but they are more intense than the Blur lipsticks. The tip is cut diagonally instead of having a sharp tip, so I didn't get a crisp line, it ends up thick on me. These have a twist up system and don't feel so fragile they might break like quite a lot of such liners do. Staying power is better than at the lipsticks. These can easily be applied all over the lips. 020 Mauve Mesh is a great shade that gives my lips some more depth.

So far I've been loving wearing combination of 020 Mauve Mesh with Blur lipstick 010 Mochi Mauve for a neutral lip. 

A repurchase - finally. I don't know why DM doesn't carry this basic clear version, I don't like the tinted ones (I had the pink and purple one). I use this as a basic lip balm because it's a great soft, nourishing formula. The gloss level is decent too, but the scent could be better. The product doesn't twist back in the tube - a safeguard because the formula is so soft.

A replacement for my usual red nail polish, which thickened. I got a cheaper version this time since I've never tried a red that would be bad regardless its price. This is a basic neutral red with a pigmented, smooth formula that can be fully opaque with one coat. Staying power is good on me.

I grabbed the wrong colour, so this was a miss from the start. I wanted the clear version, since they didn’t have Essence’s Juicy Bomb Glossy Butter Balm Coconut and I picked this formula instead. Compared to Essence’s Juicys the texture isn’t as soft and doesn’t feel quite as moisturising, though it’s pleasant enough. This has plenty of small glitter, which feels somewhat gritty when I press my lips together. Pigmentation is sheer, but with several coats it can be built up to light tint on the lips. This shade looks warm on me, leaning to peach. Shimmer ends up everywhere. There’s so scent. These had a discount in the drugstores, so it looks like they were discontinued.

I used to have this, disliked it, forgot about it and bought it again because it was cheap and apparently it's a best-seller. I fail to see why because it's got a hard texture that doesn't feel very moisturising, instead it feels like there is just a protective layer on the lips. Many like it, but I'm still not one of them. Lip Smackers and other softer balms are more my thing. Scent is of calendula ointment and not strong.

First time trying Carmex and it works for me. I've been using Melem since I got it once as a gift with purchase and though the texture feels so buttery, rich and soft, I realised that my lips just reverted back to its dry, chapped state as soon as it was gone from my lips. Carmex feels different. It's not as rich, the layer you can apply is thinner and it's a much harder formula than I usually like, but it works and my lips stay hydrated for much longer. I got the Berry version which has a fruity scent. I was reluctant to buy the original version because I hear it tingles.

A repurchase. A serum for "visible skin repair and wrinkles". It's a growth factor serum that promises a lot of things concerning visible aging, plus that is hydrates and strengthens skin's barrier. I've used up a whole bottle and decided to repurchase it, though I didn't see any difference. It's a very light serum or maybe more like a toner and easy to layer, so I use it daily as one of the first steps in the morning.

A repurchase. This is my upgrade from Geek & Gorgeous A Game 10 (they have 20, but this was more convenient to repurchase) and at first I noticed a very mild burning, but my skin got used to it very fast. As far as results go - I never see any results as retinols or retinals. The texture is the same as Geek & Gorgeous one, a bright yellow lotion that sits on the skin for a while. The bottle has only 15 ml.

A shampoo that says it's for dry scalp, which is why I bought it, but it feels drying on my hair. It's the type that strips too much from the scalp and hair. I was impress by it at the first wash as it worked a treat. My scalp was clean of dandruff and it itched less. However, by now it does nothing for me. It has about the same scent as Ilirija 1908 Kopriva (Nettle) shampoo, an unidentifiable cosmetic vintage one

A gentle formula that doesn't feel drying and it foams well. It’s highly praised on DM’s website for removing dandruff. This one doesn't work for me. It doesn't remove dandruff or help alleviate it. On to the next one I guess.  

A mask and leave-in treatment in one. It's a thick, rich product that feels like a heavy face moisturiser when you're applying it. Ingredients look great, it has shea butter high on the list and several other oils. When I was rinsing this off, my hair didn't have that silky feeling and it was like I didn't use a conditioner, but once I used my regular leave-ins and dried my hair, it felt nourished, but the top layer of my hair still felt rough. The tube is small for my liking and I probably used close to a 1/4 or even a 1/3 for one use on my long, thick hair. Winter Protect is similar, actually better and you get more. Traum Locken has a typically scent of this line, a version of a cosmetic scent, nothing fruity or floral.

This is only available during the winter and I've missed it for the past several years. I finally tried it mainly because I like the Keratin one and because it has shea butter high on the ingredients list. My hair has been very, very dry in the winter and it became coarse - this conditioner/mask impressed me so much, I stocked up since they are not available for most of the year once stock is gone. It's not very thick, but feels a bit balmy and it's richer than the Keratin one. It properly nourished my very dry hair and the effect lasted for days, even on my ends. To me it's better than the Keratin and Repair version, but my hair is very thick and dry. It has a basic cosmetic scent, something like Nivea and similar creams.

A repurchase. It reminds me of Pantene, as it leaves that slippery feeling on the hair that I like, plus it's nourishing enough. It's silicone free. 

Syoss’ version of a glossing product, similar to L'Oreal's Glycolic Gloss 5 Minute Lamination. Instructions don't say it, but I think this should be used after a conditioner (from the same line). I used it on its own despite knowing it's wrong and it was very wrong. My hair felt so dry and even leave-ins couldn't rescue it. My hair didn't have more shine, nor did it dry smoother with my round hair dryer. I had to wash my hair again the next day, I needed hydration. Formula is similar to L'Oreal's version, a thin lotion, but L’Oreal’s is more hydrating.

A shine spray that acts as heat protection. I think this is the actual product to buy if you want shine. It's the same thing as Shchwarzkopf's other shine products in an aerosol (Got2B, Gliss), still I bought it because apparently I can't resist a shine spray. The shine is intense and this works as a taming product as well, since it reduces frizz. 

A rich mask with aloe vera as the first ingredient instead of water, shea butter, coconut oil and others. My dry hair liked it, it's very nourishing, but Balea's Winter Protect is similar and cheaper.

Balea’s version of glossing rinses and like L’Oreal’s has glycolic acid. Unlike Syoss' one I tried this one only in combination with other masks. Texture is very light, similar to Sysos and L'Oreal Glycolic Gloss. I noticed no increased shine or smoothness after using this. Apparently nothing beats the overly expensive, but always reliable Moroccanoil Frizz Control line (lotion and spray).

A repurchase. I use this after every hair wash and it's so far the best leave-in conditioner I've found. It's true to the claim of long lasting hydration, it leaves my hair somewhat softer and it dries smoother.

A repurchase. I buy this when my skin is very dry because it's the cheapest shower oil and decent for the price. It doesn't have the richest emulsion and the scent is bland, but I buy it every winter and use it instead of regular shower gels.

I remember these being better. It's not a butter, it's a standard cream, meaning lighter than I expected. It needs some effort to get the white streaks to go away. Scent is barely peachy. I regretted taking this instead of Balea's Urea cream in a tube the moment I opened this.

A repurchase after a few years. Since I wasn't that happy with that peach Fussbutter from Balea, I picked up this cream which is quite light in terms of texture, but it's better at nourishing, though I'm still looking for a formula that will truly wow me. I tried all Balea's formulas that they have in their regular lines and this is the one I like most. It absorbs in a matter of minutes, which is good in some respects, though my feel are always so dry, I gravitate to heavy formulas that stay on the skin for hours (I have silicone socks to help absorption). It's decent at hydrating-nourishing, but effect isn't long-lasting on me. It's an ok cheapie, just like the body cream from this line.

This is very praised on DM's website for smelling great. I find it a bit boring as most of the time it has a dusty vanilla scent, but every once in a while I can smell the pistachios and it turns into a pistachio-vanilla pudding scent. Balea launched other products with this scent as well.

The only bar soar that doesn't leave the skin stripped of everything. It's as gentle as using a regular shower gel and it smells great.

DM Sun Dance finally made a perfume with their signature sunscreen scent. It doesn't smell exactly the same as their sun lotion, instead it starts more citrusy and develops to a softer version of the scent, more powdery - but it's still very close, it's just the basic difference between a perfume and cream format. It's moderately strong when I spray it, but becomes a skin scent after, so it's weak. Nivea Sun and La Rive Solare are not dupes for this, just in the same European sun lotion scent family. Only 30 ml version exists and it's a limited edition. It's about 6 € - I found it among perfumes, not sunscreens.
