Review (2/5): Super tiny bottle - wasn’t sealed & about ⅙ of the bottle was empty
GET IT / DON’T GET IT? This earns a 50% GET IT from me.
I see this product in two ways - its quality as a usable product, and the way it is delivered, and my review will be conducted with those two things in mind.
CONS:
The bottle is freaking tiny - Yes I know if you pay attention to the listing details you will see that it is only 120ml, which I did see, but I wasn’t thinking about how big or small that was. Subconsciously, I was just thinking - its body wash so it will be a decent size. I was wrong - 120 ml is not a normal size for body wash. In looking at it now I just checked and the size I usually get is 500ml.
While I was at it just checked the price and a 3 pack of 500ml is the same price as this one 120ml bottle. That means that this is 12.5 times more expensive if I were to get the same amount.
Once I dried off, there was none of the great smell left on my skin - might as well make it not smell and maybe bring the price down a little.
I thought - ok, maybe this stuff is super concentrated and that’s why the bottle is so tiny - so when I tried it, I would say I only had to use about ¾ of what I would normally use, but that still doesn’t restore it to a fairly priced product for the size of the bottle.
PROS:
It smells fantastic in the bottle, but as I said, once I toweled off there was none of that left :(
My skin feels incredible after washing - like REALLY incredible.
SUMMARY:
Please understand that I am only one reviewer, and I take no joy in being this critical about any product, but I am seriously not impressed. I have reviewed almost 1,200 products and I really only select products that I think I will love to avoid being in this situation - I picked it because it looks like a quality product and I was pretty sure I would like it.
The fact that the bottle wasn’t sealed, and I had to really squeeze to get any to come out showed me that the bottle was not full, which if you remember my comment about the expense of this product makes me feel even worse about it. The bottle I got may have been an anomaly and everyone else's may be as full as one might expect, however mine was not. Interestingly, you cannot see into the bottle so you won’t be able to see how much is in there. I had to use my phone to shine a light in there and it looks like about about 1/6th of the contents are missing. You will see in the pictures how much I had to squeeze it to get some to come to the top, and in another picture I show the approximate level of the contents.
On top of all this - despite the fact that my skin feels amazing there is absolutely no smell whatsoever is a huge disappointment when it smells great in the bottle. For me - I would never get it again and sadly I cannot say I recommend it, but if you are willing to pay this price to get great feeling skin then that is what you will get.
