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

Head & Shoulders - Citrus Fresh - Anti-Dandruff Shampoo


This is like other Head & Shoulders shampoos but it has an awesome citrus note added.
It is an added note, you can still smell the baseline normal H&S shampoo scent.

It cleans well, lathers well, and is silver jewellery safe.
I have had minimal dandruff while using this.

Price: 4/5 ($6.95 for 500mL)
Scent: 4.5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

The Body Shop - Fuji Green Tea - Body Wash - Shower Gel


This cleans well, lathers nicely, and is non-irritating.
The scent is nice; green tea, pepper, and aloe vera.
However, the scent doesn't linger on the skin.

It also tastes awful.

Price: 4/5 ($10.95 for 250mL)
Scent: 4/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Aldi - Protane Naturals - 6 Precious Oils - Shampoo


In previous Aldi shampoo adventures, I found the bottle too hard for squeezing out the product.
This product 'solves' this problem by making the shampoo as viscous as water, so you don't have to squeeze the bottle.
This is a stupid solution.
You will loose product because of this.

It smells like generic man shower product :(
I am not a generic man!

It cleans well and lathers well, but it did leave my hair 'crunchy'.

Overall

Pure Beach - St. Tropez Shampoo - with Coconut & Passionfruit


This is a hotel sample from a recent adventure.

It doesn't really smell of coconut or passionfruit, and it doesn't contain any extracts of either.
It's just a generic shampoo smell.

And it's great for cleaning up blood!

It does, however clean well, lather well, and doesn't leave a residue.

Price: 5/5 ($0.38 for 25mL)
Scent: 2.5/5 (generic shampoo scent)
Effectiveness: 5/5

OGX Weightless Hydration Coconut Water Shampoo


This smells alright, I'm not a huge fan of fake coconut, but this is pretty close to a 'real' coconut scent.

It lathers well, cleans well, and leaves no residue.

Do I think it could rehydrate hair or the coconut water in it has magical properties? 
NO!

You can use coconut water for sterile IV solution in a pinch, but that is the extent of it's abilities.
(It also tastes bad).

Price: 1.5/5 ($17.99 for 385mL)
Scent: 3/5
Effectiveness: 4/5 (Mark lost for unsupportable claim)

Garnier - The Radience Renewer - Cleansing Gelée



I picked this up at 'The Reject Shop', it is not a common item here.

This is a thick (dare I say 'gel'-like) soap for washing your face, I almost feel it is too thick, because it is a bit hard to wash off.
Pro-tip: lather on your hands, then apply to wet face.

The scent is like lemon and orange oil, but it isn't too strong.

It lathers well and leaves your skin very clean.

As far as skin radiance, I didn't notice much change.

Price: 3/5 (~$7 for 236mL)
Scent: 3/5
Effectiveness: 3.5/5
