The professional care brand OLIE'RE PARIS arrives in Israel with a collection of products based on a unique technology of natural oils. We tried the COLOR E’CLAT series, designed for dyed hair, which combines argan oil and MEADOWFOAM, and the HYDRA WAVE series for curly hair with sesame and wheat oils.
What particularly impressed us is that despite the high concentration of oils, the products absorb excellently into the hair without leaving greasy residues. Another plus is the perfect match for hair types: Each series contains a unique blend of oils that address specific challenges, from restoring shine to dyed hair to reducing volume in curly hair. The results speak for themselves: Strong, healthy hair with improved texture.

Remington launches in Israel the VIRTUALLY INDESTRUCTIBLE razor, promising exceptional durability alongside impressive performance. Our tester used the device for two weeks and found that the rugged design indeed lives up to the promise – the razor survived several drops onto ceramic surfaces without a scratch. The durability doesn't come at the expense of ergonomics – the grip is comfortable and fits a variety of hand positions. What impressed him most were the three flexible shaving heads with the dual knife rail, which maneuver well along the jawline and neck, providing a thorough shave in one pass.
The foldable trimmer turned out to be very useful for precision along the sideburns and beard line. On the technical side, the battery lasts for about an hour of use (we tested it!), there is a convenient LED charge indicator, and the USB charging is compatible with any place. The full waterproof resistance and the option for easy cleaning add to the convenience. The cherry on top? A five-year warranty from the importer.

Strauss launches a special edition of the Pesek Zman snack in collaboration with the One in Nine association for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The pink-colored packaging features the title "Take a Pesek Zman (time out)" and displays a QR code that leads to a page with information and scheduling appointments for screenings. This important initiative reminds women of the importance of regular check-ups, with the main message being that early detection increases the chances of recovery to over 90%.
Beyond the special edition, Strauss signed an agreement with the association to raise awareness among the company's employees and their families, including support and guidance if needed. A commendable initiative that combines sweetness with social responsibility.

Van Gogh Vodka expands its flavor series with a surprising summer combination – watermelon and lychee. The blend of juicy African watermelon and sweet Asian lychee creates a fresh and sophisticated taste.
According to the brand, the vodka is produced at ODB distilleries in the Netherlands through a meticulous process, including distillation in small 20-liter vessels, filtration with activated charcoal, and using soft spring water. The precise extraction of fruit flavors is well noticeable: The vodka is balanced, not overly sweet, with a smooth and pleasant finish. This refreshing drink can upgrade summer cocktails or be served cold as a shot.

The Orda creative toy group launches the Magnetons series – board games that combine magnetic force and beloved characters. We tested the aviation kit, which contains 24 pieces that create eight different aircraft. The game is simple and intuitive: Connect the pieces to create familiar aircraft or mix them to make imaginative creations. We were impressed by the quality of the pieces and the attached three-dimensional surface. The children particularly enjoyed the many assembly possibilities (over 2,000), in a game that provides both learning and fun. Suitable for children aged 3 and up.

Ferrero refreshes the Tic Tac series with a new flavor mix of mandarin and lime-lemon. The new mix joins the familiar Tic Tac family (mint, orange, and strawberry), which has long been a must-have in our bag. About the new flavor, we can say the surprise was pleasant, especially for citrus lovers: The combination of sweet mandarin and sour lime-lemon creates a balanced and especially refreshing taste experience.
The familiar dissolving texture of the candy is preserved, along with the colorful and playful packaging. The timing is perfect for the Israeli winter, as the citrus flavors match the season.

Soglowek expands the Madame Perez series with Moroccan fish cakes in tomato and pepper sauce. We tried the new dish, and the impressions were mixed: the fish cakes were soft, and the sauce was delicately spiced with a pleasant hint of heat, but they lacked the "soul" that authentic homemade fish cakes have. Compared to other products in the series (like the successful bolognese and the beloved curry chicken), this one is less impressive. Although it provides a quick solution for a hot meal, the taste doesn't rise to the level of the other dishes in the series.
