I've been using this for a little while and I think that while it works, it's a bit expensive for the results! I bought this to try as I know that makeup wipes can be a bit harsh to use and I really like that it feels gentle. It doesn't dry my skin out and it removes makeup really efficiently. The cons of this is that I've been going through it quite fast as I need to wet at least 2-3 cotton pads really well for it to work. Because of this, I anticipate that it can get quite expensive over time. Also, whilst it's meant to be ok to not wash your face after using micellar lotions, I find that I have to wash mine as even though my face might feel dry like nothing was left behind, when I wash my face, it feels like there's a slippery film on it. I think that this micellar lotion is like all others and it's exactly like Bioderma. I'm not sure that I would repurchase due to the cost but I do like that it's very refreshing to use.

I've been addicted to the WotNot wipes so it was really refreshing for me to use a different brand of cleansing wipes for a change. I absolutely loved these so I will definitely purchase them when I run out The wipes come in the normal plastic packaging with a sticky seal like almost every other brand. The wipes have a light scent that's very fresh and doesn't linger too long. They are just the right amount of damp without being too dry or too wet which was really good as they were really refreshing I used these mainly to get rid of my makeup and as a "pre-cleanse" and they definitely worked! They are also good as a cleansing wipe if you're feeling lazy. I would wipe my face with these wipes and then just rinse off any residue in the shower.

This night cream was so thick that it made me break out! I only used a small amount at night and I found that when I woke up in the mornings, my face would feel slippery when I washed it as there was still a bit of residue on my face I think that the cream is a bit too heavy to use in Summer and I trialled this during some of the hottest days that Sydney has had (over 40 degree temperatures) and to be honest, I didn't feel like putting rich, heaving moisturisers on my face on those days I noticed that I got quite a few pimples that cleared up when I stopped using the night cream Otherwise, I think that the packaging was nice as it came in a glass jar which is perfect to leave in your bathroom or bedside table. I'll definitely give the cream another go in winter.

I found this cream to be pretty heavy and thick which I expect from a night cream not a day cream but it was easily remedied by using a small amount. I found that a small amount went a long way and it didn't make my skin feel tight which it does (feel tight) when I haven't used enough moisturiser However, whenever I used a little too much, it clogged up my pores and made my face feel really greasy. When it was used in the right amount (just a tiny bit on fingers), my face was moisturised enough for the whole day and it wouldn't feel dry at all There's a bit of a light scent to the moisturiser and I can't quite put my finger on what it is but it's a bit like my Estée Lauder and Garnier moisturisers which have cucumber scents. The moisturiser is also in a glass jar which is very heavy which isn't a big deal as it would sit on most people's tables anyway.

This was a lifesaver for me when I used to work in a cafe. Because I was always washing my hands during the day, my hands would become very dry and cracked. They were unpleasant to touch and would flake. I was so embarrassed and hated to touch customers hands as theirs was always baby smooth! I would apply this at every chance I got to give my hands the moisture they needed. It smells a little less strongly than the original vaseline The tube is easy to use with a flip top and it is fairly cheap so I felt no guilt in using the tube up at lightning speeds. I still highly rate this and keep a tube by my bedside table. it's a super fast and affordable absorbing moisturiser that everyone should use.

This Burt's bees lemon butter cuticle cream revolutionises the way I see my nails. My nails chip easily and are brittle. My cuticles tend to peel and get very dry. Since I discovered this though, they've been on the recovery to better and healthier looking nails and cuticles It smells like lemon (obviously), comes in a nice cute tin that is easy to pop in your bag and is a good price ($15 or get it in a GWP) so stock up and have an extra one hanging around because trust me, this is one of the best nail and cuticle treatments available I also rub any excess onto that weird dry wrinkly spot between your thumb and index finger to give them a bit of moisturising as well. Use your fingers to warm up the balm as it can be a little difficult to spread otherwise.

I smelt this burning at a Peter Alexander store and fell in love with it. It smells like a caramel slice straight out of the oven or hot caramel fudge sauce It's very very sweet and you can smell the vanilla and caramel instantly. I light it occasionally in my bedroom and it smells like a lolly shop! The fragrance goes very far and never stays in one room. It will travel through the entire house.

I've tried both this and the soap version and I thought that it did a great job of cleaning my face. It's not my favourite product but it does its job I tried it in mild although I have normal combination skin (although sort of dry around my chin) and thought that it was a good match. I'd highly recommend a moisturiser afterwards though as my skin did start to feel a bit tight It has a refreshing smell which you can't notice once you've washed it off I'd recommend for people to at least try it before they buy it. People with dry skin may have problems with even the mild version.

I think that this scrub is very similar to the other 2 or so of this range I find this harsh for frequent use and would actually use it sparingly and with very light pressure. It does a good job in exfoliating but can irritate your skin if you use it too often. It's full of apricot and other nuts (like walnut) crushed kernel parts and can be abrasive It is a good size for the price and can be found in most supermarket, chemist and pricelines.

I used this as an exfoliator as it's full of ground up nut and apricot shells. I'd read some reviews that said it was bad for your skin as it was too harsh and I'd been advised so by a beautician as well However, I find it effective if I've been lazy and not exfoliated in awhile as it makes my skin feel smoother. I do try to avoid using it too often and use it only when I feel my normal exfoliator isn't doing its job It's a generous size and can be picked up at pretty much any supermarket or chemist or priceline. I didn't give it a high rating as I do find it very harsh for frequent use.
