Australian Gold - Face Guard Sunscreen Stick

I picked this up in Los Angeles, USA of all places. This is not a brand I have ever seen in Australia (which is kind of odd because it even has a koala on it)
It is SPF 50 and I used it on my arms primarily.

It smells strongly of coconut and doesn't leave your skin shiny or oily.

It's a shame I have used it all up.

Price: 3/5 ($6.15 for 14g)
Scent: 3.5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Nivea Daily Essentials Rich Moisturising Day Cream

This is a rich face cream, which I worry may be a bit heavy for daytime, which I used as a night cream. It has an SPF 15 (which does butt-all in this ozone-torn land) but this sunscreen element it did not upset my skin, which is a plus for those with sensitive skin. 

It has a nice, clean scent which is non-offensive.

I will note that each morning though after use my face-skin looked kind of haggard... this isn't necessarily the creams fault because I think my face just needs something more moisturising/hydrating.

Price: 4/5
Odour: 4/5
Effectiveness: 1/5 (didn't work great for me)
