Same Product, Different Scent - Dusch Da- Überglücklich (Overjoyed)- Body Wash



This smells so nice! It is a lemon and rosemary scented and it is so nice.
It smells a bit like yellow jellybeans from Australia, The black and gold brand. 

It cleans well and is non-irritating.

I really like this one!

Price: 5/5 ($1.86 for 250mL)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Lipton - Do The Detox - Tea


This tea has stinging nettle, meadowsweet, rosemary, and grapefruit aroma.

Before you put it in water, it smells like a buttery herbal tea.

After you put it in the water the rosemary and grapefruit really come through.

The taste starts with grapefruit, rosemary, and ends with stinging nettle. 


It's pretty nice, doesn't live up to the 'Time To Relax' version though in my mind.

Price: 5/5 ($3.04 for 20 bags)
Scent: 4/5
Rating: 4/5

Teatox - Fresh Focus - Organic Green Tea with Ginseng



I got this for my birthday! (Thanks PB's parents!)

This is a green tea with orange peel, ginger root, applemint, rosemary, eucalyptus, guraná, and ginseng.

It is a medium, warm, yellow-brown colour when brewed.



The smell is a little spicy. It tastes like green tea, faintly of eucalyptus, and a little bitter.
But it is very nice!

Because of the guraná, best to keep this as a morning tea.

Price: 1/5 ($15.80 for 70g)
Rating: 5/5

Om SHE Aromatherapy - Mint & Rosemary - Foot Balm


This smells so lovely! A strong, herby scent of rosemary and true mint.
It is hydrating and also sulphate and paraben free.

However, it is a thick lotion at best (if you are feeling generous), it is not thick enough.
Heals need a butter or cream.

It doesn't do much to soften the feet (when applied overnight and in socks).

Price: **No longer sold**
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 2/5

Purple Prairie Botanicals - Organic Olive Oil Lotion - Frankincense & Myrrh


This smells AMAZING! It is herbal and spicy.

It contains olive, sunflower, coconut, frankincense, myrrh, orange, and rosewood oil.
It also has witch hazel, black willow, and rosemary extract.

I really wanted to love this, but my skin on my torso didn't agree with it. 
But you better believe it was all used up on my legs!

It absorbed well and left my legs well moisturised.

Price: 3/5 ($15.89 for 237 mL)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 3/5

L'Occitane - Shea Butter - Foot Cream
This foot cream has a property that I haven't encountered in another foot cream yet: it is oily... and I LOVE IT!

The skin on our feet doesn't produce a great deal of oil by itself, so to give it a little extra boost, an oily foot cream seems brilliant (to me, at least).

This rich formula smells beautiful with coconut, lavender, rosemary and sunflower oil and is best put on at night, with socks over it, for an easy foot treatment.

Obviously don't walk around your house with oils on your feet, or you will have a bad time.

Solution to not being able to walk:
Anyone else remember scooter boards from primary school? :p

Price: 3.5/5 (rrp $12.00 for 30mL)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Aromatherapy Associates - Shampoo with Rosemary and Ylang ylang


This beautifully floral/herb scented shampoo smells amazing! 

It lathers up terrifically and ... what can I say? It does what a shampoo is meant to do... clean hair in one wash (and you may think that sounds obvious, but some shampoos can't accomplish this)

Unfortunately I can't find this in any size other than travel/hotel size bottles (40mL)... prove me wrong, kids! Prove me wrong!

Price: 2.5/5 (you can get some small containers on eBay... sorry I can't give a rrp)
Scent: 5/5 (floral/herb, almost musk)
Effectiveness: 5/5
