Loving It / Using It Vol. 10 – Vaadi Herbals Face & Body Scrub with Walnut and Apricot

Swathy · November 6, 2014 · 2 Comments

Vaadi Herbals Face & Body Scrub with Walnut and Apricot product review

After a long time, I have used a body scrub. I like that they are easy to use and less time consuming but then most of the body scrubs fail to show any results for me. So, lets see how did this one fare for me.

Vaadi Herbals Face & Body Scrub with Walnut and Apricot product review

  • Price – Rs 68 for 90 gms
  • Availability – generally available on online stores like flipkart, nykaa. Vaadiherbals.com is the existing brand website as well. 
  • Packaging – Product comes in a plastic tub and will not leak. The tub is small enough to be carried around. 
  • Texture – The scrub is grainy and creamy. The grains are less in density and not very harsh so they do not tear on the skin but generally, it is advised to skip on the grainy scrubs as they can cause micro-tears in the skin and harm the skin in the long run.  
  • Usage – The product is a little more creamy so a bit of product diluted with water applies smoothly on the skin. Since it is a body scrub, it can be applied on both the face and body. I would say that it is gentle enough but still I would prefer to avoid it on face. 
  • Results – Even though the product is creamy, it does not feel as if it leaves a residue after washing off. And, it does leave the skin shinier than before and the moisturiser gets absorbed real quick after a scrub session. And, it does not leave the skin dry as well. But, yes, it would not do anything like removing the dark spots and all which it does not claim to do either. Yes, one thing, I did not notice if they really made a difference to the blackheads, though!
  • Ingredient List – Vaadi Herbals is notorious for not specifying the ingredient list which puts me off the brand a bit.

My Verdict

Well, it definitely is a product to try out. I did like it.

Have you tried the product? Have you tried any other product from Vaadi? How did you find it?

Loving It / Using It Vol. 7 – Madara Colour and Shine Shampoo for Colored / Treated Hair

Madara Colour and Shine Shampoo for Colored / Treated Hair product review

I had been looking around for quite sometime for a SLS-free shampoo other than organic surge when I came across this brand on flipkart. I have been using the product on and off since then and its almost on the verge of finishing so I thought I might as well share my thoughts on this with you.

Madara Colour and Shine Shampoo for Colored / Treated Hair product review

  • Price. Rs 900 for 200ml. Definitely expensive!
  • Availability. Not available in stores. Guess flipkart is the only website which carries the brand for now!
  • Smells of Rosemary. Love it.
  • Packaging is not really great. Sort of a seesaw opening and then you have to press the product out. 
  • Usage. One dollop of shampoo is enough for two uses. Lathers pretty well. 
  • Removes oil completely. Does not require lot of water to wash off. 
  • Adds shine to the hair. 
  • Makes hair soft and rough at the same time. I do not know how to explain this. When I am washing my hair, I can feel it is rough. And, even when hair is drying, I do not find it soft. But, as the day progresses, my hair becomes soft. In fact, this is one phenomena I have noticed with the recent shampoo I am gonna review soon. I guess it is a SLS-free shampoo trend!
  • Makes my hair frizzy. Unfortunately, I think lack of care for my hair and the dryness due to this product both dry out my hair and frizzes it. 
Overall Verdict
I would say this product is not really worth the money I ended up paying for it. And, my search for another SLS-free shampoo carries on. Sometime back, I noticed that flipkart was out of Organic Surge shampoos which made me start hunting for other options. I checked again and the OS is back and available! So, get your stock before they run out of it.  
Have you used the product? Or, are you searching for any SLS-free shampoo?

Vaadi Herbals Chandan Kesar Haldi Face Pack

If I have to compile a list of products I would like to use, face pack would generally rank at the bottom. I am restless and keeping on a thick layer of mask on my face sans the specs is really difficult for me coz I can really not do anything else in that time.
So, reviewing this was a lot easier. In fact, while using this product, I did not use anything except for a face wash and sometimes used to skimp on the moisturizer as well. So, let us get on with how this product performed on me!!

Vaadi Herbals Chandan Kesar Haldi Face Pack

  • Price. Rs 90
  • Easy to Apply. The product is light in consistency and texture so spreads easily on the skin. Always apply masks on a slightly damp skin. Water helps absorb the products. But, as always, clay products are best removed just before they are completely dry.
  • Brightens the Skin. Instantly brightens and leaves the skin soft after removal. No stretchy feeling. Regarding absorption of oil on the skin, I am not sure how much it is effective as I had dry skin this time. The results last only for a day or two depending on your exposure to sun and pollution. 
  • Ingredient List not specified. Like the cuticle oil, the ingredient list is missing. 

Vaadi Herbals Chandan Kesar Haldi Face Pack

Overall Verdict
It is worth one try and probably can be used almost everyday.
