Lavera Orange Shower Gel Reviews

Review of Lavera Orange Shower Gel
By Taryn G.

Packaging The Lavera orange feeling shower & bath gel comes in a orange and white plastic tube, with a screw top lid for easy dispense. It also comes in an outer cardboard rectangle box. Both the packaging has the recycle symbol on it.

Application When I first used the Lavera orange feeling shower gel, I thought the orange feeling shower gel was going to be hard to wash with, but in fact it was the other way round. I found it easy and quick to use because frothed up and became easy to apply with a poof/flannel, unlike some brands. It was also easy to wash off any excess orange feeling shower gel. The orange feeling shower gel is clear in colour and felt sticky to touch but when it came to applying the gel to my body it was smooth like silk and easy to use.

Ingredients They use some organically grown products and natural essential oils which you can smell when you use the shower and bath gel, which I love because I know I’m not putting any man made chemicals on skin. The ingredients were put on the outer packaging in English and German.

Result After using the Lavera orange feeling shower gel, my body felt soft and felt clean, while in the shower I could really smell the oranges, when I got out I could no longer smell it, which I like to have. I would buy and use it again.

Pros: Leaves my body feeling soft and refreshed
Smells of oranges without being over the top
Uses natural/organic ingredients
Suitable for vegans
Easy to apply

Cons: The orange smell didn’t last as long as my normal body wash
The shower gel only lasted me one week

Review of Lavera Rose Hair Treatment

Review of Lavera Rose Milk Repairing Care Treatment
By Anisa B.

This Lavera Rose Milk Repairing Care Treatment comes in a 125ml plastic green tube but I received the product in a 10ml sachet that had enough product in it to write this review.

The texture of this Lavera Rose Milk Repairing Care Treatment is thick and creamy and smells of roses. The smell, however is not strong and does not feel overpowering as some products do. It is easy to apply and does not feel sticky or like a film and nor does it feel like oily. It feels more like a thick conditioner works easily into the hair.

Lavera says: Lavera Rose Milk Repairing Care Treatment provides intensive nourishing care to stressed and dry hair. Rose flower extract, macadamia and avocado oils provide nourishment while keratin builds and strengthens the hair.
The list of ingredients are: Water (Aqua), Alcohol*, Lauaryl Glucoside, Cetearyl Alcohol, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil*, Guar Hydroxypropyl Trimonium Chloride, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil*, Lecithin, Stearamidopropyl Dimethylamine, Macadamia Ternifolia Oil*, Squalene, Rosa Damascena Flower Water*, Prunus Persica (Peach) Extract*, Chitosan, Hydrolyzed Keratin, Xanthun Gum, Panthenol, Hydrogentaed Lecithin, Tocopherol, Ascorbyl Palmitate, Fragrance (Parfum)**, Limonene**, Linalool**, Citronellol**, Geraniol**. * ingredients from certified organic agriculture ** natural essential oils


I’ve used this Lavera Rose Milk Repairing Care Treatment once a week for 3-4 weeks now, my hair is not particularly dry but is more normal and dry sometimes. I feel this product made my hair feel softer and tangle free but not more so than a regular conditioner. This is meant to be a treatment so, more effective, but I don’t feel it is. It did not do what I’d expect for a ‘treatment’ product unfortunately and I would only recommend it as a conditioner and not as a treatment product.

The pros of this Lavera Rose Milk Repairing Care Treatment are:
- Smells nice
- Affordable
- Good ingredients
- Hygienic packaging that is portable too

The cons are:
- Not different from a regular conditioner

Review of Jurlique Herbal Eye Gel

Review Jurlique Herbal Recovery Eye Gel
By Sandra C.


Packaging This Jurlique Herbal Recovery Eye Gel comes in a glass pump bottle with 15ml content, it is a bit heavy to put in your bag.

Application Jurlique Herbal Recovery Eye Gel is too watery to be an eye gel. It feels more like eye serum than eye gel. However, it does spread easy due to the texture. I used it generously day and night for over a month but there is still two third left in the bottle.

Scent I was a bit put off by the smell. I can’t figure out what kind of funny smell it is but it is definitely not my type. It is like the kind of home remedy oil that old ladies use.

Ingredients The packaging claims that the ingredients in Jurlique Herbal Recovery Eye Gel, arnica and eyebright “help to firm and brighten the delicate skin around the eye area” and this eye gel is packed with a lot of herbal extract. However, what disappointed me is the other far from natural ingredients such as alcohol, a preservative Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate that could be irritating, and chemicals like the PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate which uses as an emulsifier. For 15ml of eye gel costing £33, I would expect more organic or natural ingredients.


Result When I first applied it on the delicate area around my eye, it stung. It was a slight burning sensation around my eye which really worried me. However, I gave it a go and have been using for a month, it doesn’t always stings but on some days it really does. The only good thing about this eye gel is that when my eyes feel really puffy on the morning, I apply a little bit on the eye bags area, and it gives a firming effect. It doesn’t hydrate or smooth any wrinkles as the packaging claims.

Pros:
It does firm the eye contour area.

Cons:
The smell is not nice.
It gave me allergy.
It doesn’t hydrate my skin nor smooth any wrinkles as it claims.

Inika Mineral Eye Shadow Review

Reviews of Inika Mineral Eye Shadow

By Debra S.

Packaging:Inika Mineral Eye Shadow is simply contained in a clear plastic jar with a blacklid. The product name is printed in gold on the lid top. The clearplastic label on the bottom contains the basic information.

Application:There is a plastic sprinkle lid inside with holes in it topped with apull off label. As my nails are short, it was difficult to pull off this label. I use a brush for eye shadow, so I found it irritating touse, as I had to pull off the sprinkle lid too to dip my brush inside,which scattered powder.I needed to dip my brush twice into the powder to apply to the wholeof each eye. It went on evenly and looked the same colour as the colour in the jar.

Ingredients:The Inika website was easy to find and contained lots of information and looked fairly interesting. I noticed the shade was a different colouron the web, but that was to be expected. They talk of the purity ofthe ingredients and say they are organic.

Results:This gorgeous pale pink-brown coloured powder of Lychee 18 has a velvet softtexture. Although it went on evenly, it soon became patchy and fadedfast. I tried re-applying it, but the results were the same. Despitetrying it every day for a week, the results were disappointing, asthey were always the same.There were no allergic reactions though.

Pros:Gorgeous colourNo allergies

Cons:· Found the design fiddly to handle and apply· Need to apply a lot of powder to cover eyes· Colour was patchy· Colour faded fast.

Pai Camellia Cleanser Reviews

Review of Pai Camellia and Rose Cleanser
By Zainab C.

Packaging The Pai Camellia and Rose Cleanser comes in a little pot which is beneficial as it is re-usable. The design is classic and modern with black writing over clear plastic and a white lid. The full size product is packaged similarly in that it is clean and modern. The full size product comes in a pump dispenser design.

Application The Pai Camellia and Rose Cleanser is a white cream with a gel like consistency. It has an interesting scent, which, although calming, may not be pleasant for some people. It was easy to apply and can be washed off with water. However, I found that it worked better, and cleaned deeper if it was removed using a damp muslin cloth.

Ingredients All of the ingredients in Pai Camellia and Rose Cleanser were natural with several essential and vegetable oils. This cleanser has luxurious, rich ingredients such as rose water, Shea butter and manuka oil.

Results The overall result was that my skin was left cleansed, refreshed and nourished. The cleanser got rid of any grime and dirt and added a nice glow to the skin. It did what a cleanser should do to a high standard.

Pros: Very natural, rich ingredients
This cleanser did not dry out skin whilst cleansing and removed make-up well
Leaves skin feeling nourished and thoroughly cleansed

Cons: The scent may not be to everyone’s taste
· The packaging could have been more eco-friendly
· This cleanser was very good and there isn’t anything else I can put in the ‘Cons’ section!
