Original Source - Daily Scrub - Blood Orange


This is the body wash I took with me to Germany, S and I both used it and it lasted for two weeks (which is pretty good). And no one said we smelled bad! :p

The scent is AMAZING!
It smells so much like oranges (but not too acidic).
It contains orange extract and limonene which probably explains a lot.
The scrub component appears to be made up of sweet almond shell powder.

Price: 4/5 ($4.99 for 250mL)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Original Source - Skin Quench - Watermelon & Jojoba Oil
This smells SO much like watermelon! I hope you like watermelon if you pick this up.

It lathers up well, cleans well, and is a refreshing scent for summer

I don't really know what else to say... it is what is says on the packet, no spin.

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

Original Source - Vanilla Milk and Raspberry - Moisturising Handwash

My sister got me this because she knew my ex hated the smell of berries XP

They were right to call this 'Vanilla Milk' and not just 'Vanilla'! There is a definite dairy scent in this.
And there is that tartness which makes it smell like 'raspberry' and not just some random berry scent, a credit to the raspberry extract in the formulation.
Overall, it smells delightful!
After use, the scent stays on your hands for a while :D

This didn't upset my hands (which are sensitive to soap) and lathered up really well.

Price: 2/5 (~$7 for 250mL)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Original Source - Skin Quench - Moisturising Shower Blackcurrant & Moringa Oil

This shower gel smells like blackcurrant lollies! 
I loved the little oil beads as well, which dissolve (!!!!) and don't go on to accumulate in the environment!

It was both moisturising and cleaned well, with a good lather.

And I have another bottle from my Bellabox!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

Price: 3.5/5 ($4.99 for 250mL)
Scent: 4.5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Nivea Men - Energy - Shower Gel
How convenient! Hair, body and face wash in one! -_-

The smell is generic cheap male smell, but the lather is okay and it does the job in terms of making the filth of the day go away...

"I want to smell good (as a male) but not cheap after washing" Solution:
Smells so good! And not fake :)

Price: 4/5 (rrp $7.50 for 500mL)
Scent: 1/5 (eww)
Effectiveness: 5/5 (meh, it soaps good)
