Now that testing is over & logbooks are completed, here are my products.

This was a very high value box. I have brands that I've never used before, or some I've never even heard of.
Blind testing this way is ideal, because you don't have the impression that bc it's more a luxurious brand, it will work better.
I can't tell the difference between $15 eye creams and $200 eye creams, and certainly not in just 7 days.
The hair products were labelled Professional, as in salon quality, and they were awful. I'll stick to my Garnier Fructis hair products on sale & with a coupon, $2 thank you very much.

As I said previously, I had the same products as you. All the stickers are still on my products though... need to get cottons balls and a bit of oil

As for the eyes creams: they are just moisturizing, nothing more than cheaper versions. Still can't believe the $225 price tag of the Guerlain eye cream!

So agree on eye creams! I tried many expensive creams from Sephora and every time returned because of no results other than just moisturizing. But... on the other hand...I received CeraVe eye cream from ChickAdvisor, and that is amazing! Indeed, that not only moisturizes but also gradually fades my dark under eye circles and gives me 9-hour-sleep look. That is fully comparable with my other favourite - ROC eye cream (another drug store cream), both of the are definitely winners over all those Clinique-s, Clarin-s, Lancome-s, Dior-s and other "haute couture" and sky-high expensive brands.

I haven't even tried to remove all the stickiness, that'll be a task, ick. A friend tested the primers, as I don't wear foundation. My sister also tested the hair products along with me, and didn't like the crunchy hair effect.
I didn't get that CeraVe eye cream from ChickAdvisor, so you lucked out Mia, turns out that's all you needed.

I got picked as well, mainly mascaras, hand and face creams. About 15-18 in total. Just took off the labels on the weekend and gave away the ones I didn't want to family. I know I got a few clarins, Lisa Watiers and a few high value items. It was fun!
