Alnatura - Rooibos Vanille Tee

This is an organic rooibos tea flavoured with ground vanilla pods from organic farming.

The scent is initially very strong, but once brewed, the tea has a lovely mellow vanilla taste.

I could drink this every day easily!

Lipton - Time To Relax - Tea

This tea has chamomile, lavender, linden, and vanilla.

Before you put it in water, it smells very stronger of lavender.

After you put it in the water it has a buttery vanilla scent.

The taste is a mellow lavender and it is lovely.

Overall it's a bit like drinking a SpellBox (which I can get behind).

I miss SpellBox.

Of course if you don't like lavender, you won't like this.

Avon - Vanilla Soft Musk - Body Spray

This is a nice soft combination of vanilla and musk.
But it is so faint and has such a short lifetime.
I mean really short, like less than 15 minutes (and it's not just me getting habituated to it).

Price: 4/5 ($8.99 for 75g)
Effectiveness: 0/5
Strength: Weak
Lifetime: Very Short 
Time: Daytime
Season: In the dead heat of Summer (solely because it won't make anyone more uncomfortable than they already are).

Rexona - Impulse - Romantic Spark - Body Spray

This  is a nice woody, floral scent that isn't overbearing.
However it wears off so fast! :(

Price: 5/5 ($4.99 for 75mL)
Effectiveness: 3/5
Strength: Low-moderate
Lifetime: Very short
Time: Daytime

Choose Chi Chi - Eau de Parfum - Vanilla Orchid

This is a mixture of vanilla and being hit in the face.

Essence of Beauty - Secret Woods - Body Mist

I picked this up when I was in the U.S. a while ago.

The scent, while being called 'Secret Woods' is mostly vanilla and musk.

I was expecting more aquatic notes XP

Fragrantica lists the notes as: 

Top Notes: red apple (no), pomegranate (no), quince (no)
Middle Notes: jasmine (no), violet (maybe), chocolate (no)

Same Product, Different Colour - Bloom - Mineral Plus - Lip Butter - Queen Of The Night

This is a burgundy balm that does tint the lips a bit.

Over the BJLL2 Lip liner.

Over nude lips.

It has a faint vanilla smell.
The colour is ok, but dissolves any lip liner below it and looks patchy if it isn't even.

New Name: Wino

Bloom - Mineral Plus - Lip Butter - Like a Prayer

This is a peach-pink balm that does tint the lips a bit.

If my lips weren't already stained from yesterday's lipstick, I would worry about my natural (blue) lip colour showing.

While it is nice (and I love the mirror in the lid!), it isn't really my thing.
I like all or no colour a lot more.

Price: 4/5 (~$10 for 4g)

L'Oeal Paris - True Match Concealer - Vanilla

This is a relatively good colour match for me, perhaps a bit too yellow but that is good for hiding purple tones under my eyes.

It really sucks here that it is hard to get light enough concealers/foundations/powders because the derps in marketing think everyone has the same skin tones.
ALSO even when they do make a better range THE STUPID STORES ONLY STOCK A LIMITED PART OF IT! >:(

Everyone in this picture should be able to easily get concealers... except the babies, they would probably just eat it.

Colour match aside, this formula is TOO thin for a concealer.
It's like they just put some foundation in a little bottle and slapped a 'concealer' label on it.
If I have a Mt Vesuvius situation, this won't cover it!

The packaging it comes in is great. 
Small enough for a purse and the doe-foot applicator makes it easy to put on.

Price: 2/5 ($19.95 for 5mL)
Scent: 2.5/5 (no real smell)
Effectiveness: 3/5

Pharmacy Choice - Expectorant Mucolytic - Chesty Cough - Cough Syrup

If you have bacteria-ridden mucus in your lungs (green junk), and expectorant can help get it out.

Expectorant - cough it up (a medicine which promotes the secretion of sputum by the air passages, used to treat coughs).

Mucolytic - breaks up the mucus so it's easier to move.

This one contains guaiphenesin (100mg per 5mL) and bromhexine hydrochloride (3mg per 5mL).

The guaiphenesin is your expectorant and the bromhexine hydrochloride is your mucolytic.

The guaiphenesin will also make medicines like paracetamol have a greater effect.

Even when you get over the counter medication, do check with the pharmacist for any drug interactions with other things you may be on.
I was told to take less than the full adult dose if I intend to also take Seretide.
Knowledge is power.

The flavour is listed as strawberry and vanilla... strawberry and vanilla my butt!
Like all cough syrup, it tastes like misery.

Half an hour after taking it, I cough up some mucus and feel less terrible.

Price: 4/5 ($9.95 for 200mL)
Scent: 1/5 
Effectiveness: 4/5

Rexona - Sexy Bouquet - Roll On

I reviewed the spray on version of this, which did not perform well.
This however, works really well as a roll on.
There is no break through sweating.
It also doesn't irritate my skin.

The scent is great, a sweet vanilla and pink flowers scent. This is my favourite scent of deodorant.
The scent is not overpowering though.

The only drawback is it can be hard to find.

Price: 4/5 ($4.41 for 50mL)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Premium Spa Australia - Body Butter - Coconut & Vanilla

I got this over a year ago to keep at my desk.
I have to say I really don't like the scent, it is very strong on the macadamia and coconut notes.
It is very heavy and oily, but surprisingly doesn't feel very moisturising or rich when it is on the skin.

Also, the container has a false bottom!!!! There is not as much as in the container as you think D:

Even though it is a good price, it isn't that effective and hence not really worth buying.

Price: 5/5 ($9.99 for 190g)
Scent: 0/5
Effectiveness: 1/5

GC Tooth Mousse Plus

Starting when I was ~15 years old, my lips began to crack and peel and bleed. I had to cover them in Vaseline constantly to prevent pain and further damage. Fast forward to two years ago when I went to a (unfortunately rude) skin specialist who suggested I may be allergic to toothpaste.
I stopped using the minty staple and my lips repaired... I am allergic to toothpaste.

But if I can't use toothpaste, what can I use on my tooty-pegs?

The answer is GC Tooth Mousse Plus

It comes in flavours like vanilla, strawberry, melon, tutti-frutti, and mint (I avoid this last one).
It is activated by saliva and is full of lovely fluoride (don't even bother sending me your 'fluoride is the devil' conspiracy nonsense).

 The only drawback is it is very expensive (~$30 for 40g) but I have no other choice :(

Price: 1/5 ($21.95 for 40g)
Scent: 3.5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Rimmel - Wonder'full Mascara with Argan Oil

Before we even get into the thing, lets just appreciate the brown-bronze metallic, cubist tube :3

Inside we have a decent, lash separating brush.
The formula smells like argan oil and vanila, and coats the lash smoothly with a good colour intensity.

This is an all round winner!

Price: 4/5 ($17.95)
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Same Product, Different Scent: Crabtree & Evelyn Hand Therapy - Nantucket Briar

This smells like heaven to me, if I were ever let in to heaven :p

I smell lavender, rose and violet... the website lists it as peony, wild rose, citrus, vanilla, patchouli and exotic spices...

At any rate, I LOVE this!!!

Scent: 5/5

Vera Wang - Princess - Perfume

This perfume is so lovely, even my mother likes it! (and she usually doesn't have strong feelings about many things)

To me, this purple delight, smells of vanilla... just sweet vanilla

Fragrantica lists the notes as follows:
Top notes - apricot, mandarin, apple, water lily
Middle notes - tuberose, guava, dark chocolate, tiare flower
Base notes - amber, vanilla, woodsy notes

I would say this perfume lasts a moderate amount of time (longevity), is of moderate strength (sillage) and would suit autumn and/or the afternoon the best.

This is such a beautiful scent... I am so tempted to repurchase it!

Price: 3/5 (rrp $89 for 100mL, but you can often get it for ~$30)
Season: Autumn
Weight: Medium
Overall possum liking: 5/5

Planet Earth Pure Simplicity Body Scrub - Raspberry and Vanilla

I picked this up in Target last month because I needed a body scrub and this looked decent...

I was SO disappointed! 
- The grains were too big to do anything except scratch my hands instead of exfoliate my skin.
- The scent (raspberry and vanilla usually a safe bet) were sickly-sweet and smelt like artificial fragrance.
- The 'goo' was slimy and some how neither washed dirt off me or washed off easily with water.

I had to throw out the rest of the products after three 'attempts'

I cannot recommend you don't buy this product enough
