Avon - Skin so Soft - Replenishing Body Lotion + Argan Oil

It absorbs well.

That's good!

But it is very thin.

That's bad.

It is affordable.

That's good.

But it smells like sunscreen.

That's bad!

It also leaves a residue and isn't available at the moment.

Can I go now?

Price: 4/5 ($7.99 for 250mL)

Lacura - Organic Argan Oil For Nourishment Night Cream

Yay cruddy photo!

Another Aldi product!

This is a very heavy cream. I started using it in the summer and that was a bad idea. 
It was so heavy on my skin it made me sweat.
So if you want to use this, use it in winter!

It has a clean, kind of clinical, slightly nutty scent.
It really didn't absorb well, it felt almost more like a barrier cream than a moisturiser.

The packaging is nice though, it feels sturdy and has a cool 'double wall' look.

Price: 5/5 ($8-ish for 50mL)
Scent: 1/5
Effectiveness: 1/5

Lacura Essentials - Organic Argan Oil - Cleansing Wipes

I picked these up from...

The pack of 25 was a good size, you wouldn't want any more because the flawed packaging encourages drying out. The problem with the 'resealable' packaging isn't unique to this brand, it is a cross-brand problem. The cruddy plastic flap will only really reseal five time, then it won't close properly. Fix this, people!

The addition of argan oil made these wipes more of a moisturizing finish. There was a residue left on the skin after use. So if you are looking for an 'all off' clean, perhaps give these a miss.

The wipes themselves were good though.

Price: 5/5 ($1.99 for 25 wipes)
Scent: 3/5 (mild, almost nutty)
Effectiveness: 2.5/5

TRESemmé - Salon Silk - Shampoo

I got this in the big 900mL bottle! Less effort on the shampoo buying frequency front!

It smells like shampoo fake apple and green notes (why all the fake apple?!)

It contains silk proteins and argan oil, which I don't feel it makes any difference.

It lathers well, cleans well and doesn't leave a residue on the hair.

Price: 5/5 ($11.49 for 900mL)
Scent: 1/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Rimmel - Wonder'full Mascara with Argan Oil

Before we even get into the thing, lets just appreciate the brown-bronze metallic, cubist tube :3

Inside we have a decent, lash separating brush.
The formula smells like argan oil and vanila, and coats the lash smoothly with a good colour intensity.

This is an all round winner!

Price: 4/5 ($17.95)

Essenzza - Fuss Free Facials - Age to Perfection

Continuing with my love of face masks, I thought I'd mention this one... I have good and bad to say 

Good things:
 - lovely thin Japanese silk mask which moulds well to the face.
 - smells nice (you need that if something is going to sit on your face for a while).
 - it has argon oil and vitamin c (an antioxidant).

Bad things:
 - STUPID two bits of plastic! It's difficult to shape to your face if you follow their instructions and try to apply it with one side of the plastic still on... I end up just removing them both at the start.
 - Related: DON'T LIE TO ME! It is NOT 'Less messy' than other masks... I have two bits of plastic extra to deal with! BS!!!

Solution:

Platinum, baby! Thin mask with no stupid plastic sheets!

Price: 3/5 (rrp $4.95 for one... other masks cost less)
Scent: 4.5/5
Effectiveness: 3/5 (forget you, plastic!)
