Mintttty

I absolutely love the mint / tea tree one. Getting up early every morning can become quite daunting, and using this every morning is always a great start to my day! It makes you feel fresh, clean, crisp, and awake lol. Love this product and definitely will be trying the others

Tips: Mint is awesome for early morning wake ups!

I will eat it one day. ... maybe

OMG I have never been more in love and attracted to a beauty product scent before in my life. I'm talking about the Raspberry and vanilla scented body wash. I can't even begin to describe what it smells like. It's fruity and sweet. Like a dessert store. Smells like strawberry panna cotta! The entire shower fills up with the smell, and I am in heaven. Sadly, the scent is not as prominent or long lasting when you're out of the shower all nice and dry *sad face.* I still smell it, but I'm no longer in a dessert store.

It's a light, fluffy, whipped consistency. With just a squirt the size of a 20 cent piece, I can run my sponge over my entire body twice, so it will definitely last you a long time. It foams up really nice, and makes skin super super soft !

I love that the bottle is clear so you can see when it is coming to the end, and when you need to start restocking. But a tiny thing that bothers me is that the head, like about 3cm is empty! I NEED AS MUCH OF THIS PRODUCT POSSIBLE you don't understand! Why is some missing! It's a really convenient design to the bottle. The bottle opens from the bottom end, so when it is near the end, you don't have to hold it upside down for minutes to get the product to the bottom! It has a nice thin end, which makes it really easy to grab as well.

I do like to buy a different body wash each time, but honestly, I think I'm gonna stick with this one from now on.

Average

I noticed this product on the shelf last week and feeling a bit strapped for cash ( I usually go for the Lux) I decided to opt for this product and give it a go since it was on special for $2.50 instead of the $6.20 for the other stuff. Unfortunately after a weeks use its almost all gone. I chose the shea butter and honey, and while it smells good its not very good at cleaning. It didn't seem to lather up and was quite runny so just seemed to run out of my hands before I could even use (which is probably why it hasn't lasted long at all!). Overall quite average and I think I'll just spend that bit extra on my usual stuff!

Love the Mint/Tea Tree

When I first tried the mint and tea tree I wasn't so sure as it smells like toothpaste but then I grew to love it and so has my husband. I am instructed to go buy more.

Tips: Buy more than one.

Love these shower gels

I found these at countdown on sale two for six dollars, months ago. I liked the way the packaging looked; the bottles sit upside down in the shower so the product is easy to get out. Flip the lid and off you go. I have dropped these bottles a number of times and nothing has broken so the packaging is also pretty sturdy. I also liked the size of the product. The bottle doesn't take up a huge amount of room in the shower. The consistency of the gel is great, not runny, not thick. You don't need much to get a good lather. The best thing about these gels is the scents, they are gorgeous. From the chocolate and mint scent (which I have just finished another bottle) to the vanilla and strawberry these are divine. These are now my go to shower gel and Countdown often has them on special. However they are good value for money regardless.

Tips: Hide these from your partner if you want them to last longer.

My name is Colleen and I'm an addict!

After all the raving and excitement about these little guys hitting Countdown, I just had to get in and see what all the madness was about and boy am I glad I did!

I picked up the flavour vanilla and strawberry because I just felt eating it in the supermarket. Its package in a 250ml squeeze bottle and unmissable when you're in the supermarket. Just head to aisle you want to eat ;)

The gel is thick, creamy, oh so smooth and a tiny amount on a shower sponge really goes a long way. Just a tiny amount (one decent squeeze) will lather your entire body and then still some left over for round 2.

Now that its winter, I really neglect my skin with body lotions etc because jumping into the pjs with as few chills possible is the top priority. This gel has some lovely nourishing effects because my skin isnt screaming of dryness (not yet though) and I feel well pampered after using this shower gel. I'm not someone that is big into fruity smells and this gel just about ticks the "amazing smell" box for me because eventhough its an intense smell, its not overwhelming and sickly sweet like some gels can get.

The best and most important part of this gel? Your husband will stay clear of it in fear of smelling too girly! Yes! That means no sharing this gel for me and now it gets to last as long as I want to.

I definitely recommend this to people wanting try something with a more exotic flavour and not wanting to share bathroom treats with their partners ;)

Tips: Just 1 decent squeeze is all you need and you'll be lathered galore. You a shower sponge to a get an even spread of the gel.

Yummy smell, not too strong

I bought this in the 'Pink Grapefruit' variety as I love this scent in other brands. The smell of this is not as strong as others I have tried but it is a pleasant fresh scent - not too sweet and quite invigorating. These are great for waking you up in the morning! Think I will try the lime one next.

Update: I have tried the lime one and I loved it! The scent is delicious but not too strong - you don't really notice it on your skin. I like how the body wash drains to the lid so none is wasted. The only downside is I go through it so quickly as it's only 250ml! I will definitely buy this again.

smells so amazing

I purchased the honey and shea butter product.

it's so great, it smells amazing- not overpowering but sweet enough to make you notice it lathers up really nicely and spreads well. this particular one is brown coloured which reminds me of brown sugar. I liked that the packaging was unisex and wasn't marketed towards one gender, the fonts used are appealing. I wish this was more nourishing for your skin, my skin isn't dry but doesn't feel silky soft.

The texture is weird, it "plops" out which isn't so appealing.

Tips: use sparingly lasts a long time!
