Brazilian Butterfly - BB Delicate Mitt


'Delicate' my butt!

This is like rubbing yourself with Velcro! 
Maybe it is my delicate skin, but this leaves me red, sore, and not happy.

It also feels like it is made of cheap plastic, doesn't lather up body wash, and is unwieldy in the shower.

Don't lie to me and tell me this is for delicate skin.

Don't bother trying this.

Price: 2/5 ($20.00)
Scent: 2.5/5 (no scent)
Effectiveness: 0/5

Brazilian Butterfly - Gorgeous Goji Berry - Body Lotion


This is nice and thick. It absorbs well and is quite moisturising.

It unfortunately smells like flour and cranberries, which is awful!
Every time I caught a whiff of it, it really bugged me.

Perhaps give this one a miss.

Price: 3/5 ($18.00 for 200mL)
Scent: 0/5
Effectiveness: 4/5

Brazilian Butterfly - Tea Tree Body Lotion

Tea tree is not my favourite scent, and this was strong on the scent front.
I also don't believe tea tree to be a miracle anti-bacterial oil and I didn't see any amazing results to conclude otherwise.

A non-irritating lotion which was a bit thinner than I would have liked.

This was very blah to me, it didn't wow me, it just existed and I existed and we were both things at the same time.

A better lotion:

The Body Shop body butter is great!

Price: 3/5 ($18.00 for 200mL)
Scent: 2/5
Effectiveness: 2/5

Brazilian Butterfly - Guava and Tangerine - Blue Crush lotion with shimmer

You know my love of shimmer, we covered this before.
And this lovely lotion delivers on the shimmer! Yasssssssssss!



In addition to the shimmer, the lotion itself has a lovely opalescent look (which does not translate on to the skin).

The scent is passable, I don't love the guava smell, so I wish the tangerine note was stronger.

As far as moisturising ability, it sinks into the skin nicely.

Price: 3/5 (rrp $18.00 for 200mL)
Scent: 3/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Brazilian Butterfly - Lavender Body Scrub with aloe and chamomile

If I never encounter chamomile again, I will die happy. I hate the smell!
That can be arranged
This scrub smells delightfully of lavender (thankfully the chamomile and aloe are used more to sooth the skin) and is one of the best exfoliators I have tried.

The only bad thing about this product is that it's ability as an exfoliator comes at the cost of the Earth... that is, it uses plastic beads which are not biodegradable.

Let's see Captain Planet stop my exfoliator extravaganza!
Because of this, I won't buy it again.

Price: 4/5 (rrp $18.00 for 200mL)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5 (but I don't care because it doesn't care for the Earth)

Brazilian Butterfly - Tea Tree Body Wash - with Sea Salt and Aloe
I purchased this to help care for my skin after a recent waxing session (Pro Tip: it hurts like a b!%@#)

This calming wash won't upset your (possibly recently maimed) skin and will help keep the skin happy and healthy. 

It smells strongly of tea tree oil (a natural antiseptic... also if you are my dad: STOP RECOMMENDING IT FOR EVERYTHING!) which is a green, pleasant scent.

The lather isn't the best though, which makes me a sad panda.

Solution: 
FILL THE ROOM WITH BUBBLES!!! XD

Price: 2/5 (rrp $18.00 for 200mL)
Scent: 4/5
Effectiveness: 4.5/5
