Oriflame Beauty Concealer Kit
It has 3 colours : Light Yellow
Light green
Brown
The Yellow: is for the bluish colour under your eyes it neutralizes it to give a bright undereye area.
Green: for redness.
Brown :for contouring under your cheekbones or contouring the face in general.
What I think about it?
It's amazing..I love it.It feels like cream,very soft and light,you need the slightest amount to cover the discolouration.
Individually..the Yellow : just completely covers my under eye blue circles,i also use it to brighten up the inner corners of my eyes.
It totally replaces concealer for me,i sometimes feel that it gives a much brighter undereye area than the concealer does.
Green : is great for neutralizing redness,specially that i have sensetive skin and tend to get some areas of redness.I apply it before foundation for extra coverage of redness.
Brown : it's nice to apply it for contouring under the cheekbones as a creamy base before applying the powder bronzer for extra definition.
Overall ...I love it alot and so happy that i got it,It also lasts for a very long time as you only need the tiniest amount since the product is of a real good quality.I will definitely repurchase it.
Price:34 egyptian pounds after 25% membership discount.
Conclusion: Very good for covering imperfections before applying foundation and a reasonable price too.

Sol Golden Self Tan Body Mist Spray 150ml & Sol Golden Self Tan Tinted Face Cream 150 ml
What Oriflame says aboutt it?
For both the face and body tan,it gives u a bronzed colour within hours of application.
My Opinion:
For the face tan , I love it's caramel colour and scent.It has a little bit of fine glitter but once the bronzed colour starts to show..these glitters really don't appear.
I like to apply moisturizer first before using the face bronzer for a smooth application,I don't require alot of product inorder to have a good bronzed colour,just a thin layer that's evenly applied over my face and neck.
I leave it over night and next morning ,i get a very nice glowing bronzed face.
Price:45.50 egyptian pounds after 25% membership discount
For the body tan..It's a spray , very light...I like to apply moisturizer beforehand then spray it all over the areas that i want to be tanned.I also like it's smell,but the problem is that at first it's transparent when applied,so u mightnot know where exactly has it been applied,so u might over do it.
I leave it over night and it gives a medium coloured tan that lasts for 2 days then it fades gradually.
Price:53.25 egyptian pounds after 25% membership discount
Interesting enough is that both face and body tans give a similar grade of bronze so that there is no difference between my face and body colour.
The only thing that i have against it is that it gives a bit of an annoying smell when the colour starts to fade on the 3rd or 4th day.
Conclusion:
Overall I liked it alot,it has a very reasonable price. The product lasts for quite a long time.They both give a natural tan and a nice glow to the skin.I also like that the colour doesn't last for a week or so and u can reapply it whenever u like...Definetely i'll repurchase it.

Optimals Nutri Calm Night Cream 50 ml
What Oriflame says about it?
It's for sensetive and dry skin for all ages,it has a formula with calming complex.It also moisturizes the skin.
My Opinion:
Sorry to say that i've been disappointed with this product,because i have sensetive skin and was hoping that it might calm my skin and nourrish it,but on the contrary i found it a little bit stingy and not soothing at all specially around my chin area where i usually feel that my skin is a little bit inflammed.
Even when applyinfg the tiniest amount ,i still have the same result and i stopped using it completely.
I just would like to make it clear that i've always had problems with night creams and that stingy sensation,so i'm not sure if the problem is my skin or the product !!
The packaging is good and the cream has a pink colour,it's not heavily scented.
Price:47.75 egyptian pounds after 25% membership discount
Conclusion:
I won't repurchase it again because i really didn't like it !!!
If any body has tried it please let me know if had the same problem with it.

Tender Care Vanilla 15 ml
What Oriflame says about it:
Enjoy the amazing vanilla scent and the benefits of using it as a lip balm ,a moisturizer for the face , cuticles , heels , elbows and any areas that have rough skin .
My review about it:
I used it as a lip balm and i loved it , it's one of the best moisturising balms I've ever used and the vanilla smell is potent and beutiful.
I almost used a whole pot of it and the consistency of the balm and its scent haven't changed till the end.
For my face , i find that it's a little heavy and greasy ,may be because i have sensetive skin but I didn't like it.
I've never used it for my heels or elbows because honestly it doesn't make any sense that u use the same balm for your mouth and heels !!!
I loved the pot alot , It looks like a large pearl and I do love the packaging as a whole.
The product lasts for quite a long time , even if you used it daily
Price: Originally in the catalogue it's : 12 Egyptian pounds
I got it for 9.25 L.E after 25 % discount
What I don't like about it :
I have to use my fingers to apply it and I think that this is a little bit unhygienic, i would have preffered to have the same formula but in stick form.
My Opinion:
It's definetly moisturizing ,smells amazing , very cheap for the amount of poduct that you ger.I'll repurchase since it's my favorite lip balm so far
If u like this review , I would appreciate If u left me a comment telling me what u think about it :))

Face Primer
Face Primer 30 ml
It's a primer used before you apply your foundation to make it last as long as possible without melting.
I tried it and i really loved how the foundation felt afterwards,it was very smooth and felt like a perfect layer of skin as well as the foundation hasn't changed or melted .
I also used it before applying my under eye concealer and it helped to reduce creasing and the shape of the fine lines under my eyes.
I think that the amount of product can last a very long time before you have to buy a new one.
Price:26.25 egyptian pounds after 25% membership discount.

Dual skin Corrector Review
Dual Skin Corrector-medium
It's a good concealer for blemishes or any imperfections in the face.
It has an inner white circle for highlighting but i haven't really noticed something remarkable.
It's pretty heavy for under eye dark circles at least for me ,i didn't like it as it's so creamy and heavy.
It's of good size and i like the sleek packaging.
Price: 34 egyptian pounds after a 25% discount because I am subscribed as a member .
