Now it’s no secret I love beauty and all things skincare. I am always on the hunt for something new to try and sample to see if it works for me. There are so many brands out there and I only have one face so I like to try a few products at a time to see how I get on with them. Less is more right?
Back in May I was sent some products to try from a cosmetics brand called NYK1 Secrets. If you have never heard of the brand before, they’re UK based and founded by Andrea Asquith, a former master nail tech and qualified beauty therapist. Not only does this mean she has an understanding of products and treatments it also means she has a vested interest in the results.
“NYK1 Secrets was created to bring you the Hair and Beauty secrets that are locked up in today’s Beauty industry. We love to bring you the highest quality Salon products at affordable prices, delivered to your door complete with the correct information and personal service for you to be able to perform yourself at home, to great accuracy and with great enjoyment.”

LASH FORCE, £34.95
- NYK1 Lash Force is an innovative, concentrated 3 in 1 eyelash & brow serum that combines specific purified ingredients that regenerate, rebuild and activate growth in both length and thickness to protect the structure of each follicle.
What’s the hype?
- Safe for contact lens user
- Dermatologically & Ophthalmologist tested
- Increase strength to prevent damage and loss so that each hair follicle stays thicker for longer
- Apply twice daily like liquid eyeliner and you will be amazed at the results
My thoughts?
As a contact lens wearer and frequent glasses wearer I am very conscious about products that go directly on the eye but this was super easy to apply. Just like you would apply a cat eye without the cat this went on easily and with no spillage either. My first attempt took a few tries if I’m honest but the more I did it the more it became second nature.
I loved using Lash Force just after a shower in the morning and after cleansing in the evening. However there were some days I forgot to apply it but that didn’t bother me too much, my main goal was to get thicker lashes and I did…
The next product I tried was…

My thoughts?
I LOVE A GOOD FACE MASK. Wow that was a little enthusiastic but what I enjoyed most about using the REMOVE ONE mask was that it wasn’t just for your face, you could use it on your body too. I particularly liked using on places that are little darker like my knuckles and knees as I’d love to achieve the look of an even skin tone one day! I found it a tad drying to use all over my face so I used it mainly on my oily t-zone and it really began to make a difference.
