Palmolive - Aquarium - Liquid Hand Soap



When PB told me that the soap dispenser in the bathroom was broken, I knew exactly what I wanted as a replacement.
I wanted the fish soap.
I've wanted the fish soap for ages.



This bottle is designed to look like it has fish swimming in it.
There is an extra piece of plastic inside to add more depth to the visual, giving three layers to have images on.

There are a number of different designs; a dolphin, a clown fish, a dory, and a turtle.
I picked the turtle.
It also has angelfish swimming around it.

The soap itself is clear, lathers well, cleans well, and has a mild floral/fruity scent.

Once the soap is finished, I will be refilling this bottle over and over again.

It brings me joy everytime I see it.

Price: 5/5 ($2.99 for 300mL)
Scent: 4/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Palmolive - Oil Infusions - Body Moisturiser - Citrus with Jojoba Oil


I love the brown coloured bottle of this, it suites the label design so well!
It's such a shame the pump doesn't allow full use of the product in the bottle.

I was disappointed that it smelled more of jojoba oil than citrus. 

It absorbs well, is of a 'cream' thickness, and is great at moisturising the skin.

I would recommend trying it. 

Price: 5/5 ($9.99 for 400mL)
Scent: 3/5
Effectiveness: 4/5

NYX - Baked Eyeshadow - Supernova


I love gold eyeshadow, so this was a great thing to get in a Bellabox.

This has THE CUTEST packaging! A little clear topped box, lined with black, and a black bow!
It is also well made and wont break up in a makeup bag.


For a light colour, the colour intensity is really good. I love the shimmer in it!


There is also a lot of product in this, so you definitely get your money's worth.

I am so impressed with this product! This is a great choice for a go-to shade to be kept in your bag if you want to add to your look.

Price: 4/5 ($9.95 for 3g)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Garnier - Olia - Permanent Hair Colour - 7.40 Intense Copper


My bff really liked this brand of hair dye so I thought I would give it a try.

First thing I noticed was the teardrop shaped bottle, kind of cute.
Second, it didn't stink like other hair dye, which is good.

So here is the before:


And the after:


As it washed out, I noticed the runoff was cloudy... perhaps being an emulsion/ oil-based?

Verdict: Love it! But the end result isn't anything you can't get with another permanent dye.

Price: 1/5 (RRP $16.95)
Scent: 3/5
Effectiveness: 5/5
