Curaprox Toothbrush CS Smart (random colour)

This is the first time I use a Curaprox toothbrush. The size is perfect for both children and adults. I have a small mouth, so normal brushes will get me my gag reflex activated due to their being too bulky. This brush is great to reach tricky spots at the back of my mouth without getting the gag. It is pleasurable to use on my gums and it doesn't feel abrasive like so many other brushes. However, it's perhaps too soft for an adult.   
 
I know that the exterior doesn't matter, but the looks of these brushes with colour combos that are really great and eye candy. I'd loving having the option to select my preferred combo. 

This toothbrush costs double an average one,  so I expected quality and a bit of fancy. To me, the fancy isn't just about the colour combos or the logo, but also about its sustainability. This brush is made of great quality plastic. Yet, it's a disposable one-use brush.  Why?!!!! You can easily have the same design and quality, just with replaceable heads, a la electric toothbrush. Why not thinking about the environment? That's also fancy.  

WAESRY 3-Pair Compression Unisex Socks (15-20 mmHg)

I had my hesitations before purchasing these socks because I thought that, due to the price, they couldn't be  real compression socks or good. But they are! Perhaps I wouldn't use them in a long-haul flight, but they're perfect for seating for long periods of  time when my ankles get swollen.  
 
I love how soft these socks feel on my legs and the fact that they don't leave red marks on my skin. They are also perfect for the winter months, as they are on the thick side.  
 
The mix of colours is great for my needs as I can use the black and beige for work and the grey ones to use at home. It's winter now, so my legs get less inflamed than in summer, but, so far, so good. I would edit my review in summer if needed. 
 
The sizing is perfect for me, as I have small feet, and they reach my knees. I guess that these might be short socks for men, and not sure whether people with big feet would fit in these. 
 
They wash beautiful in my washing machine without further care or protection.  
 

Australian Wholesale Oils Mandarin Essential Oil (15 ml)

This is 100% mandarin essential oil. I've never had mandarin oil at home, so I was expecting something more mandarin fruit. However, it is a refreshing clean citrus scent that is perfect to clean smells from my working room, very gender neutral, and not to 'smelly'. It works great with my electronic diffuser, and 5-6 drops go a long way. I love the eco-friendly packaging and the minimal use of plastic. Good value for money, too.  

MAYJAM Green Apple Fragrance Oil 100ML,

This is a fragrance oil not essential oil and comes beautifully packaged. The scent, upon opening the bottle is authentic yummy green apple. I've used this with my electric diffuser, therefore diluted, and the scent was barely noticeable unless I was a few centimetres away from the diffuser. It didn't perfumed the room I put it in either. I added some drops of this oil to a small open jar in the same room, undiluted, and no results. The fragrance lasts for hours, but if you put your nose close to the jar. It might be great for soap or candle making, something I haven't tried, but not a good oil to use for the purposes I wanted it.  Perhaps it's meant to be used with a reed diffuser?
