When I was browsing Boots website over the Christmas period I came across an Ole Henriksen gift set with these four products in and it had a great saving and a discount on top of that too! I have always wanted to try there products, especially this range so I thought what better way than a gift set of all of them?! The main product I wanted to try out of them all was the Truth Serum as I have heard loads of great things about it.
I was definitely not disappointed with this serum. It is definitely my favourite product out of this range. I use this in my nighttime routine, as I felt it was too heavy for me to use in the day. The texture of it is a gel consistency and feels very luxurious on the skin, and it also absorbs into the skin very well. I leave it for around 2-3 minutes before I out my moisturiser on, as I want it to sink in properly, and I find this works very well. When I wake up in the morning my skin looks really glowy and refreshed and feels soft. I would recommend this product to people with dry, oily and combination skin types. If you have sensitive skin, I would do a patch test before you put it all over your face as it does have a scent to it which may irritate your skin.
The Banana Bright Eye Creme was also a product I loved. This eye cream was really moisturising, but not greasy! I get quite dry eyelids as I wear false eyelashes quite often so the glue dries my eyes out quite often, but this has really helped to keep them mositurised. The moisturiser to go along with this eye cream is the Brightening Gel Creme. I only use this moisturiser at night as I feel it is quite heavy for me to use in the day, as I do get an oily t zone, but I have heard on lots of reviews that it is really good under makeup so depending on what your skin type is then test it out! It is not a thick consistency, as it is described as 'gel' but once placed onto your skin it is quite thick but sinks into the skin very well and quick. The Banana Bright Face Primer was not my favourite primer I have used. As I have an oily t zone, this did not sit very well for me under my foundations as it made me quite shiny quickly. The texture of it is like a moisturiser, whereas I prefer my primers to be quite lightweight and runny. If you had dry or normal skin and liked a glow this would be perfect for you. Overall I love this range from Ole Henriksen, and next I want to try the toners!
Have you tried anything from Ole Henriken before?
