Review of Estee Lauder Take It Away

take away the mess and stress

Advantages: very small, they work really well
Disadvantages: none that i can find

...Last week was my week for toiletry buying and this week is my week for telling you all about what I bought. So first on the hit list was Charles Worthington?s Take Away Range. I got a haircut and decided that I would actually try and maintain the style so when I saw these on 3 for 2 in Boots I couldn?t resist. I bought 3 different products from the Take Away range: Shine Silkening Serum, Frizz taming Serum and Shine, Gloss and Refresh Spray. The Packaging I know people don?t always like the packaging being described but in this case it is one of the products assets. The bottles are all very small (kinda cute really) and are perfect for putting in your bag. Both the serums are in clear plastic bottles and the serums themselves are clear. There is 15ml in each of these bottles. The spray is in an aluminium (this means it can be...

Take it away.......

Advantages: Can be used to get rid of any sort of makeup
Disadvantages: The smell, not unplesent just not nice either.

...As part of my new January promise to look after my skin I invested in a bottle of "Take it away" makeup remover/ cleanser from Estee Lauder. The main advantages for me are time saving, It is a very good cleanser and make up remover in one which can be used on the eye area so I spend less time trying to get my waterproof mascara off every evening. The pump action nozzle means that you do not use too much or spill it everywhere, as I am prone to doing when I am shaking open bottles into my hand. As mentioned on the box the smell is supposed to be reminiscent of cucumber and refreshing. Personally I am not to keen on it but I am still using this product so it must be good. The texture is creamy and slightly greasy. I like to rub 2 ?squirts? into my hand and rub into my skin well, then remove all of the residual cream...

Review of Estee Lauder Take It Away

Great to Take Away

Advantages: ideal for taking on holida or trying out new products
Disadvantages: can only get them from Boots or Charles Worthington salons

...I?ve always liked Charles Worthington hair care. The products seem to suit my hair and they?re not tested on animals. The Results range ? designed to suit various hair types ? comes in the standard size and in the Take Away sizes which I?m reviewing here. The Results Take Away range is basically smaller sizes of the regular range. They are ideal for taking away (hence the name) on holiday, keeping in your gym bag (if I ever went to the gym!) or for trying out a new product before committing to the full-size version. The range contains shampoos, conditioners, hair sprays, gels, wax and serum for various hair types. The shampoos and conditioners come in 75ml versions of the standard range with the same packaging design ? an elliptical shaped bottle in a bright pastel colour. As the lids are the same shape as the rest of the bottle...

TAKE me AWAYs

Advantages: Cheap, Really do work, Luxury designer hair care at £1.50!
Disadvantages: still a little expensive

...I must say i absolutely love these beautiful little take outs. Enticed into buying them thanks to the Boots 3 for 1 offer i have never looked back. These little beauty's really do work and save me so much money because i really cant afford to spend £8 on a tube of serum that would do 5000 heads. Thanks to my mom i am blessed with frizzy wavy hair, a gift that really doesnt go down well in the world of college fashion these days. To splash out on hair repair and serum would cost me a packet and in the world of a student, it's not happening! I now buy these products, priced at £1.50 each. They look tiny but don't be fooled. My hairdresser recently informed me that if you just but a blob of serum on to your had and rub your hands together till it gets hot it goes a lot further and stops your hair getting that lanky greasy look. Since...

Takes away bad hair days

Advantages: Leaves my hair in great condition.
Disadvantages: Smell is a little too strong

...Before I start, I?d like to say, this opinion is about a few of Charles Worthington?s products, not just the take aways shampoo, this being because it doesn?t have a general category. I can?t say I?ve ever been a fan of hairdressers who are on television, I?ve always found them particularly annoying, but as this shampoo came highly recommended from a friend, I thought I might buy a small bottle. So I popped off to Boots and looked around for a bit, I saw all the usual shampoos, which didn?t exactly jump out and catch my eye. Then I saw all the Charles Worthington stuff and instantly picked up on the bright bottles and the fact that there was such a huge range available. So I picked up the shampoo first (well you can?t buy conditioner without shampoo can you?) then I saw the price, and wasn?t exactly willing to fork out that much...

Review of Charles Worthington Take Aways Shampoo

I love those take aways!

Advantages: See op
Disadvantages: See op

...Firstly I had best tell you what my hair is like, it is Shoulder length, brown, very thick and extremely frizzy. Gels, waxes, serums, leave in conditioners, deep treatments and many more, I had tried it all but to no avail.My hair just wouldn`t settle down, that was until I saw this.I was a little bit nearer to the perfect hairdo. Know I came across this while I was shopping in boots, and was instantly attracted to it. **** Packaging **** It is a 15ml bottle so it is fairly small as you can imagine, it has a clear bottom with a pink top. This top is a pump dispenser. On the pink top is a clear plastic cap to stop any spillage.The liquid inside looks as though it is a thick gel, but as I will explain later, looks are deceptive. It has the charles worthington logo and the words TAKE AWAYS FRIZZ TAMING SERUM on the front...

For The Love Of God, Take It Away.

Advantages: It's cheap.
Disadvantages: It may turn your brain into a viscous liquid that will slowly seep out of your ears.

...Once upon a time, my dear and lovely friends, I was like you. I read respectable magazines; I'd even go so far as to say that some of them were 'cool'. My coffee table warmly embraced Marie Claire, Vogue, Cosmopolitan, The Face. Visitors to my house were impressed by the quality articles, the cutting edge photography, the current events reportage. But no more. As of the last few months I have consigned myself to a hell which is entirely of my own creation. Yes, the evil that I speak of is Take a Break magazine. I can hear your shocked gasps, the sheer and utter disbelief that there is a soul under the age of 65 who will publicly confess to an addiction which makes Kate Moss' look like a minor stumble off the path of righteousness. However, I feel that acknowledging my 'problem' amongst friends will be the first step on what...

Review of Take a Break

Take me away anytime!

Advantages: Cheap, cute and convenient
Disadvantages: There's no difference between some of them... at all.

...Jayzus! It's probably one of the best offers along the hair care range I'll ever some across... Protection my locks from the killer GHD's at £1.75. Battling those split ends with serum in a pocket sized tube. I don't really think it could get much better. Charles Worthington TakeAways are pocket sized tubes of delight for both your pocket and your purse. The TakeAway range are availible in sprays, gels, waxes, conditioners and shampoos. The sprays have many uses, some bottles being heat appliane protecters, others adding shine to your hair. The gels are mainly serums, reducing split ends and dry roots. The waxes are no bigger than a 99p pot of vaseline, and the conditioners and shampoos last for about seven washes, which is great if your travelling light. I found the shine sprays especially usful at parties, when i felt like a bit...

Review of Charles Worthington Take-Aways

TAKE ME "FAR AWAY" IN THE SHOWER!

Advantages: Highly scented and aimed at females! My bloke won't use it!
Disadvantages: Can be expensive when not on offer.

...Far Away Bath and Shower Gel. I have never bought from Avon before but I thought I would give them a go when a colleague became a representative. Showered with little booklets all taking up space on the canteen tables I decided to rummage through. I was a little disappointed as in my eyes the magazines were full of make-up. I'm not very into make up. I push the magazine away from me and as if on cue another colleague enters the room. "Mmm, you smell nice. What perfume have you got?" I asked innocently as I have been on the lookout for a decent fragrance since my Anais Anais reacted funny on my skin! "Far Away" from Avon she said and showed me the product. "It's not perfume, it's shower gel!" Now I actually missed the perfumed shower gels when I was flicking through as they are hard to spot in amongst all the fruity bubble...
