Breaking out on Hairline or Chin or Back {Skin Care}

Swathy · September 13, 2011 · 1 Comment

If you are unexpectedly breaking out on hair line or chin area or even on your back, it is time to reassess your hair care products The conditioner is more often, than not, the culprit. So, try changing your hair products and see if the breakouts stop. And, always make sure that your hair is tied and away from your face because it can lead to breakouts on the face because of the natural oils and other products like conditioners and leave-in serums and other styling products of the hair.

Rhoto Mentholatum Acnes Creamy Wash {Product Review}

Swathy · September 6, 2011 · Leave a Comment

This is not exactly a review but just sharing the experience. I got a sample of this when I went to the Inorbit Mall and I was able to use the sample three times so I just want to share how it was. Rhoto is a brand from Japan which is launching its skin care line in India. This is specially meant for people suffering from acne.
Ingredients
No SLS /SLES…yay!!!
My Experience
its very thin in consistency and not very creamy also
It foams very less if you take the above shown quantity and is enough for both face and neck. And, if you keep on massaging it to get more foam, a point comes when all the product disappears into the skin. Weird!!! But, I like that point. I don’t like too much foaming cleansers. But, it foams well if you take a lot of quantity. This face wash is recommended for people suffering from acne hence the name. Since I am not having any breakout problem, I can’t comment on how well it will handle that but I can definitely say that my face looked brighter and radiant after using this face wash and in a completely natural way. And, my skin felt softer to look at and supple. The face wash wasn’t drying on my skin too. I was too lazy to apply any moisturizer afterward so I slept without having anything on my face and my face was glowing next morning and no oil on my face too. Very little oil on the nose but otherwise my face was super clear. Too many good things from a small experience so definitely a face wash to look out for.They have also released men’s face wash range and one with activated charcoal which I am very much interested in trying out.

Turmeric for Acne {DIY}

Swathy · August 16, 2011 · 13 Comments

A long time back I had done a post on home remedies for acne. So, I had a recent outbreak of cystic acne (I suppose coz it was painful and had a white head) and I decided it was better to suppress it before it became a fully blown acne which has to treated properly by a dermatologist. So, consequently, I tried the first remedy which came to my head – Turmeric. 
Ingredients
  • Turmeric
  • Water / Mineral Water
Method 
Mix them both so that it forms a smooth lotion and apply a layer on the spot of acne. Keep it on for a minimum time of 10 – 15 minutes or as long as you can. Wash it off. 
Results 
Well, I used this remedy once in a day before having bath. I kept it on for 10 – 15 minutes usually and then washed it off with face wash. I did this for around 2 days before it started showing any difference and after that, the acne started to dry up and subsided completely within a week. I used this as a spot treatment and the results were pretty good so next time you get an outbreak, you might want to test this one. Since turmeric has antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties, it helps with problem skin.
