Spice Boutique - Unbleached Self Fill Tea Bags


I have many loose leaf teas and when I don't want to make a whole pot and just want a cup, I either use a metal infuser or these.

These are unbleached because they don't need to be bleached.
It is a waste of resources and I don't want any residual bleaching agents or byproducts in my tea.


The only negative is the bag has a small opening (because it is a small bag) which can make it a little tricky to fill.

Price: 3.5/5 ($9.56 for 100 bags)
Effectiveness: 4/5

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

Chlorhexamed - Forte - Mouthwash



This is a 0.2% chlorohexidine (antiseptic) mouthwash for after oral procedures.
It didn't taste too bad (tastes like mint) and didn't burn.

It wasn't too bad using this for a few days.

Price: 4/5 ($14.16 for 300mL)
Scent: 5/5 (minty)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Sticky Paws Furniture Strips


These are great!

Phil is a naughty baby sometimes and loved to scratch the edge of the shoe box.
Past tense.

Since putting these sticky, double-sided tape pieces on his 'favourite' spots, he has been much better.

He's still a naughty baby, but not as bad.

Note: He has a lovely scratch pad that he also uses. He gets praise when he uses it.
He will be getting a scratching pole soon to see if he prefers it.

Price: 2/5 ($27.52 for 24 stickers)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Tee Gschwendner - Grüner Rooibos Erdbeer-Sahne (Green Rooibos Strawberry Cream)



I wanted just green rooibos for this, but they only had flavored ones.
Since trying it, I'm not mad.


It even has a warm rosy colour.

It has a nice strawberry & cream scent and taste.
It actually tastes like it!

It has green rooibos (not fermented), flavor, strawberry leaves, strawberry pieces, pink berries, and cornflower blossoms.


Price: 3.5/5 ($7.65 for 100g)
Rating: 5/5

Essence - Metal Shock - Eyeshadow - 01 Solar Explosion


This is a glittery gold cream eye shadow.

You can apply it with the doe foot applicator to get a kind of foil look, or buff it out to get more of a dispersed glitter look.


I really love this, it isn't too over the top but adds some glitz to a look.

No mascara or eyeliner.


I wore it for New Year's Eve with a dark lip. <3
And it didn't crease up, and I am oil!

Price: 4.5/5 ($5.28 for 3.5mL)
Scent: 2/5 (a little plastic-like)
Effectiveness: 4/5
