What was your first impression of the Product?
As the name suggests, the appearance of the dryer is very sleek and elegant, almost the perfect ladylike accessory. The packaging was very attractive, and the presentation of the packaging was quite luxe – as soon as I held it in my hands it radiating a very luxurious, expensive feel – and definitely was presented as an item of great quality.
What was your experience using the product?
Initially, my thoughts were “Well it’s only a hair-dryer so how much different can it be to any other”. I was definitely mistaken – my hair is quite long, and whilst not extremely thick, there is a lot of hair – so generally speaking my drying time with my old hair-dryer was approximately 20-25 minutes.
Imagine my absolute surprise when my hair was completely dry in 10 minutes – yes 10 minutes. Not only was it completely dry but extremely shiny, free of flyaways and so healthy looking and bouncy.
To thoroughly review the product, I tested it again on my eight year old daughter’s hair, who has waist length hair. Again, drying time was half of what my old dryer produced, and the included benefits where bouncy, shiny hair.
Additionally the hair-dryer is quite lightweight, slim and easy to hold, whilst the concentrated nozzle distributes the perfect amount of heat to the areas required.
What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
The most obvious benefit to me was the drying time – both mine and my daughter’s hair which are both quite long were completely dry, healthy looking, shiny and sleek in ten minutes. I can’t imagine wanting any more for a hairdryer as this one delivers all of the benefits.
Would you recommend this product to others? Why?
Absolutely, again due to the fantastic performance – dried hair extremely quickly, with beautiful results – shiny, bouncy, smooth and sleek hair.

What was your first impression of the Product?
Compact, as the name suggests and lightweight.
What was your experience using the product?
I have long hair, therefore, I found it easy to manoeuvre and took no time at all to dry my hair.
What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
This dryer has a lot more power that mine and just the right attachments.
Would you recommend this product to others? Why?
I would recommend this product to others because so far it has lived up to its’ feature listing and it is made in Italy where they know what a woman wants.
My daughters want one now as they also test drove the dryer. Thumbs up all round.

Danielle – Age: 29, Skin Type: Dry/Sensitive
What was your first impression of the Product?
When I first opened it and saw ‘compact dryer’ I had my doubts. I hoped it would be an improvement on previous compact dryers I had owned – and that had burnt out pretty quickly. The packaging looked great and inviting – I liked the flip lid so you could actually see the product without having to open the box.
I must admit I held off for a couple days to use it based on what I thought it was going to be like. Once I had some more information about it, I quickly changed my mind and was keen to see if it lived up to its claims!
What was your experience using the product?
I was pleasantly surprised using the product! It seems compact dryers have improved dramatically over the past few years! It had good heat and power and easy to use controls. I thought it dried the hair very quickly. I tried it without any of the nozzles and my hair got more tangled than when using my usual dryer and I think this was because of the short barrel at the end. This is not a bad reflection on the dryer though. Using the nozzles stopped all the fly away hairs and made it easy to style. The only problem with the nozzles was if u wanted to change one while you were blow drying. The nozzles were too hot to change. The finished product left my hair feeling very silky & smooth with minimal fly away hairs.
What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
The benefit was that you felt like you were using a salon quality product in a compact design and getting salon quality results. The fact that the motor didn’t tire and burn out was also a benefit for a smaller model.
Would you recommend this product to others? Why?
I would recommend it to other people as it was a good size, was not too heavy to hold while drying, had a bit extra power and was easy to use. I liked it so much I am taking it with me to Melbourne this weekend!

Kate – Age:35, SkinType: Normal Combination
What was your first impression of the Product?
More than anything I was shocked to get a hairdryer in the mail! The dryer is not a whiz-bang looking machine; it’s black and pretty plain looking, but it is light and the cord is long.
What was your experience using the product?
I found it a little difficult to get used to such a powerful hairdryer, and at first I found it too hot, but once I changed the way I dried my hair, I loved it. It is very powerful and easy to manoeuvre, and the nozzles concentrate the air flow wonderfully well. My hair seems to feel softer since I have been using this, and it definitely saves me time in the mornings.
What benefit does this product have compared to others you have used in the past?
It’s fast, light, the long cord means I can move about the bathroom and attempt (poorly) to multi-task.
Would you recommend this product to others? Why?
I would recommend this to others. I found it easy to use and well designed, and it is a time-saver.
