Review: Laline Minnie Loves Mickey Mickey & Minnie Shower Gel

So I told you about the rather disappointing Laline Mickey & Minnie Body Scrub yesterday, and while I didn't really like it, I didn't know that when I got it, so I also got another product from the same series:  the Mickey & Minnie Shower Gel. And sadly, this shower gel was just as much of a disappointing as the body scrub.

Of course it does wash you, and clean you, but the scent is not that nice, and it's really not a special shower gel in any way. So like with the scrub, unless you are getting it for the packaging, go for another shower gel instead!

Review: Laline Minnie Loves Mickey Mickey & Minnie Body Scrub

Like I mentioned in my previous post, I went to Laline recently and got a few different products, including some from their limited edition Minnie Loves Mickey series. One of the products I got was the Mickey & Minnie Body Scrub, and while I like scrubs, and usually like Laline products, I wasn't too impressed. The grains in this scrub are simply too small to be really effective, so I didn't really think this scrub scrubbed at all that well, which is kind of the point of a scrub.

I guess this is a good option for those with such sensitive skin that they can't use regular scrubs (if there are such people out there), but for me, a regular user of scrubs, this didn't do much.

I also wasn't really a fan of the scent. And usually that is what I love about Laline products; the awesome scents, so it was a bit disappointing. Somehow the scent is very clinical, and reminds me of the scent of some Clinique products I've tried, so if you do like Clinique and how their products smell, this scrub might be worth a try though.

The only pro I can think of when it comes to the Laline Minnie Loves Mickey Mickey & Minnie Body Scrub is really the packaging, it is very cute, and I've always loved Disney, so that works for me. But if you are not buying body scrubs merely to have cute stuff in your bathroom (I must admit I will keep this scrub in the bathroom until it runs out only for that reason!), you can probably find better body scrubs out there.

Just bought: Ceramic pendant from Laline

I went to Laline, one of my favorite stores, yesterday, and I got a bunch of things. But the only one out of all of them that I have had a chance to try yet is a ceramic pendant with a scent by Laline, that you are supposed to hang in your car or a room to make it smell lovely.

It's from Laline's limited edition collection Minnie Mouse, and besides the pendant, you also get a small bottle with fragrance to spray it with, when the scent starts to fade.

I really like the scent of this ceramic pendant, and since I have had some of these before, I know they are pretty durable. I only exchanged mine last time when the pendant itself started getting too yellow (it is white when you get it, so I thought it looked ugly when it turned yellow for some reason). So I have high hopes I will be using this for quite some time!
