Biore Ultra Deep Cleansing Pore Strips

I love these! Mostly so I can see the gunk that they pull out of my nose! (if you use these, you do it too, don't lie!)

It can feel a little itchy as they set and after removal, but if you want clean nose pores, THESE ARE THE ONLY WAY!

Price: 4/5 ($7.87 for 6 at Coles)
Scent: 2.5/5 (no scent)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Quick Fix Facials Exfoliating Scrub Mask - Blackheads and Blocked Pores

This ten minute mask contains pink rose clay, glycolic acid and pomegranate extract and is quite gritty, which makes sense as you massage it in at the start (exfoliation!). 

I didn't like how it felt quite heavy, was messy to use, didn't really clean out my pores and sometimes left my face red. Over all, not my cup of tea.

Also, it smelled like dirt and oats.

Price: 4/5 ($8.95 for 10 uses)
Scent: 0/5
Effectiveness: 1/5

Selsun Blue Anti-dandruff Shampoo

A blue-toned shampoo containing selenium sulphide used to treat dandruff... this stuff is very effective.
So much so, I sometimes use it to treat my most stubborn eczema, just using it like a body wash.

It lathers up brilliantly and the only negative is you MUST remove all jewellery before use! It will tarnish your earrings. Also, if you colour your hair, you need to give a day or so each side of using this stuff.

Price: 4/5
Scent: 2.5/5 (no scent)

Pantene Pro-V Daily Moisture Renewal Shampoo

This was a sample I got my hands on. I specify this because Pantene is normally:
- too expensive
- too heavy in residues that stay on the hair
- smells of apple

While it did leave my hair looking nice, but it needed rewashing sooner. Also, I don't believe it's claim that it gives hair '4x the damage prevention'...

That's what bothers me about Pantene, they make claims and I just can't believe them nor do I care that much about the physical properties of my hair.

Cussons Imperial Leather No. 37 Flirtatious Body Wash

I looooove this body wash! It smells like roses and the dark pink colour is gorgeous!
Note: If you don't like roses, there are other scents as well.

It lathers up decently and gives a really good glide if you are shaving.

It does not irritate my sensitive skin and the scent lingers on the skin (unlike other body washes).

Price: 5/5
Scent: 5/5
Effectiveness: 5/5

Anew Clinical Eye Lift PRO Dual Eye System

This product was recommended to me by a lady who swears by it, so I got a sample and gave it a try.
While I like the idea of one jar with two specialised products, it just didn't work well for me.

The under eye cream didn't do anything that any other cream (not necessarily eye, either) could do and the upper eye gel made my eyes look... dare I say, sullen?

This may work better with others, but I'll give it a pass from now on.

Price: 3/5 ($40 for 20g)
Odour: 2/5 (no odour)
