Satliva Red Raspberry Face Cream

S&S Partners · June 15, 2018 · 2 Comments

Finding the right moisturizer for your skin is downright the toughest task I have come across. It is easy to find a cleanser (not that easy, I admit, but then t gets washed off in a minute) or serum or even facial oil for that matter. But, not the moisturizer because it is supposed to stay at least 6-8 good hours. So, whenever I try a new moisturizer I am not usually optimistic and it was in same frame of mind I started using Satliva red raspberry face cream.

Over and above that this product has ~~shea~~ (sorry, it’s) mango butter which can be ~~extremely~~ moderately heavy and has hemp seed oil and raspberry oil. Especially given the weather and my combination skin, I thought I made the wrong choice when I was selecting the products for review. The only reason I picked this up was the presence of red raspberry oil which is known to be the best natural sun protector so if you can get your hands on the red raspberry oil, nothing better than that!!

Satliva Hemp with Shea Butter and Activated Charcoal Soap Bar

If you have been following me long enough, you would know by now that I really like charcoal based products. Ever since the concept came out, I have used various face washes and masks from different brands. I currently have the ones from L’Oreal and The Body Shop, both I am really liking. And, I have my eyes on the Aroma Magic bamboo charcoal face pack as well. So, anyways, let us see how does a charcoal soap do for our body.

The charcoal powder in the soap gives a nice gentle scrub to the body while the soap glides all over, thanks to the shea butter.

Price : Rs 379 for 100gms

The soap comes in a beautiful packaging and looks nice on the counter. It feels buttery to touch inspite of the gritty look. It lathers very little but just like with other handmade soaps, it melts pretty quickly so do not let it sit in water. The best way to use any handmade soap is to lather it between the palms and then use it.

3 Personal Favorites from Forest Essentials

Swathy · May 25, 2018 · 4 Comments

I finished using the forest essentials hair vitalizer serum just this week and that reminded me that I could probably share my best products from Forest Essentials just like I did with Kama last week. Recently, I did quite a few product reviews from the brand and almost all of them are a huge hit for me.

In fact, I can not wait to buy the tejasvi emulsion but I am holding my horses because of the cost and also because I am getting a few other amazing products which I am dying to try. Yeah, I did my first international online shopping this month! And, man, is it not easy to spend money when the shipping is free? I hope the customs also gets free though 🙂

Oh by the bye, regarding the hair vitalizer serum from the brand, I am not a fan at all. I prefer the Biotique mountain ebony which is way cheaper and also it did give better results. Forest essentials hair vitalizer serum also smells strong and the fragrance stays for almost a day which is really difficult to bear for my nose. Overall, I would say you can skip it though I know it has rave reviews all over the internet. Anyways, so let me share my favorites from the brand.
