It cleans well and is non-irritating.

I really like this one!

Greenfood - Super C 1000



These are actually PB's vitamin C tablets that I kinda took over... sorry PB (I got him more),

In addition to 1000mg of vitamin c, they also contain acerola (a plant known for being a good source of antioxidants), rosehip, bioflavonoids (alleged antioxidant and enhancer of vitamin C).

These are pretty big tablets, so if you have trouble with tablets perhaps pick a different vitamin C supplement.

Price: 4/5 ($26.47 for 120 tablets)
Scent: 2.5/5 (not strong, herbal acidic smell)
Effectiveness: 4/5

Achromin - Whitening Skin Care



I was out with PB one day at a medieval festival and I forgot to put sunscreen on my chest... so I got burnt.


Yes, I got burnt in Germany.

And when I burn, I tan.
I don't really want this weird tan mark on my chest, so I set about treating it.

This cream is quite cheap for what it is, isn't stinky and doesn't hurt when used.

After the recommended two week, twice a day application routine, the tan is still there, but not too intense.


You can still see where my necklace pendant was resting.

I'll keep using it and hopefully reduce the tan further.


Price: 5/5 ($7.71 for 45mL)
Scent: 2.5/5 (not too strong or offensive, a bit like a sharp sunscreen) 
Effectiveness: 3.5/5

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

Umido - Dermis care by LLM - Pflegeseife (Care Soap) - Duftrichtung Schokolade (scent direction Chocolate)



I imagined this bar would be dark/medium brown, I'm a little disappointing that is was a very pale brown.

It had little white balls on the surface, which suggest it was separated by heat at some point in the past.

The scent was more of a cocoa butter than a true chocolate scent.
(Is this what is meant by 'scent direction chocolate'?)

Upon use, it cleaned really well but didn't have much of a lather to it.
Price: 5/5 ($1.53 for 80g, I got this as a free sample)
Scent: 3/5
Effectiveness: 3/5
