5 Mini Reviews: Talika, REN, Cowshed, L'Occitane & NEOM

Saturday, 9 February 2013


Time for a 5 Mini Reviews post -  I've been seriously slacking on the 'using up samples' front recently, so it's been something of an achievement to finish these five recently!

(1) Talika Lipocils Expert Eyelash Primer
I wasn't expecting this to do anything when I first began using it, but instantly my lashes looked thicker, more pigmented and held their curl longer than they usually would.  Impressive!  It was easy to apply and didn't irritate my eyes either. 

(2) REN Moroccan Rose Otto Body Cream
A subtle and fresh rose scent accompanied this easily absorbed body lotion so I really enjoyed using this mini bottle of it.  It's quite light though, so not heavy duty enough for my dry winter skin, but would be lovely to use during the summer months instead.

(3) Cowshed Wild Cow Invigorating Bath & Shower Gel
I wasn't that keen on the lemongrass and ginger smell of this, so it's my least favourite Cowshed scent that I've tried out, but it's a lovely non-drying formula for a natural shower gel.

(4) L'Occitane Volumising Hair Mask
This one use sample sadly didn't add any volume to my medium-thick hair but it did defrizz it a treat so I'd consider purchasing a full size bottle of it just for that reason alone.

(5) NEOM Bath Oil in Complete Bliss
Heavenly modern rose scent for a truly indulgent bath.  I know I always say this, but if you enjoy relaxing baths and haven't yet tried out NEOM bath oils, then you really need to!


Have you tried any of these?
