Burt's Bees - Baby - Nourishing Lotion
This is a really nice, rich lotion with a lovely scent (like baby powder meets dark honey).
It is made of 98.9% natural ingredients and unlike so many of Burt's Bees other products, this doesn't have a problem with the formula separating.
It is non-irritating and I really like this lotion.
Price: 1/5 ($11.93 for 170mL)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Blütezeit Naturkosmetik (Flowering time Natural Cosmetics) - Pflegende Körpermilch (Nourishing Body Milk) - Bio-Malvenblüten Extrakt (Organic Mallow Flower Extract)
This is an organic, vegan, natural body milk with organic shea butter and organic mallow flower extract.
It is meant for intensive care for dry skin.
The scent isn't what I would call floral, it reminds me of a 'coconut' flavoured antibiotic liquid I had to take once as a child.
I regret getting this scent. :/
It spreads well and absorbs quickly. The formulation is nice, not too runny or too thick.
I will happily buy this again, just in a different scent.
Price: 5/5 ($4.69 for 250mL)
Scent: 0/5 (reminds me of a bad time)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Angelic Lily - Nourishing Face Moisturiser
I got this ages ago in a Bellabox and I tried it at the time... it just didn't get reviewed quickly because it was a little container that kept getting to the bottom of my reviewing box.
I HATED THIS!
IT SMELLS LIKE MOULD. I know that mould smell and this is it!
I think they were aiming for 'evergreen' but it stinks like mouldy old rooms in abandoned buildings.
Gosh darn it i don't want to touch it again... It's thick (to thick for a face cream) and forms a film on top of the skin... it isn't absorbing guys... it's waxy?!
You tried, Angelic Lily... now stop.
I need to wash my hands... ew, slimy.
Price: 1/5 ($79 for 125 mL?! heck no!)
Scent: -100/5
Effectiveness: 0/5

L'Oréal Paris - Elvive Extraordinary Oil - Nourishing Masque
I got this as a sample in a Bellabox and loved it so much, I purchased a jar!
I usually steer clear of anything that may weigh my hair down (like conditioner), but this just leaves my hair glossy, not heavy.
The packaging mentions 6 'precious' flower oils, which are: chamomile, matricaria (german chamomile), sunflower, sacred lotus, flax, tiare, dog rose. (there are 7 there, but I'm not sure which is the 'non-precious' one)
The scent is slightly spicy, but not strong overall.
It is thick, easy apply to the hair, and has a pretty gold shimmer appearance in the container.
It leaves my hair super soft and shiny :D
Price: 3/5 (RRP $9.95 for 300mL)
Scent: 4/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Woolworths Select - Nourishing Nail Polish Remover
This contains acetone (drying to the skin and nails), which makes it work super quick.
This one contains castor seed oil, jojoba oil and aloe vera... but seems like any other nail polish remover to me.
It is just that, nail polish remover, nothing more or less... don't buy this preferentially thinking it's better for you.
Price: 5/5 ($2.79 for 125mL)
Scent: 0/5 (don't smell it)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Masquerade! - Etude House - I Need You, Mango!
This sheet mask had a faint, lovely smell of mangos (even though the taste of mangos reminds me of a medication I was taking when I had a fit [read: one-off seizure], I don't mind the smell).
Meant to be nourishing and firming (I just felt hydration).
