Vaadi Herbals Amla Thanda (Cool) Tail (Oil) {Product Review}

Swathy · September 17, 2013 · 2 Comments

I have taken quite a good time to review this product, reason being its very difficult to make out how a hair oil will behave and also because I wanted to see if it stands tall on all its claims! I have to say it more than surpasses on one of it!!

So, let me start with the smell. It smells like the typical amla oil which we are so used to smelling. And, let me be honest when I say that how it fares on the hair growth aspect is something I would not speculate since one and half month is really less to make such inferences.

Pros

cools and relaxes the body

gives a subtle shine to the hair

gets washed off easily enough

Cons

its smell might not agree with everyone

But, it is sooooo cool. I think no other cooling oil would stand in front of it and it really helps a lot! So, its best to use in summers. When you are going to have the head bath, it feels like heaven so yes, it is amazing in that aspect. It also relieves headache and relaxes the body. It quite beats navratan oil.

So, yup, do give this amazing oil a try. Have you already used the product? Do you like it?

Nivea pure effect Total Face Cleanup {Product Review}

Swathy · September 12, 2013 · 2 Comments

So, this was on loving it list, if you remember! And, then, I had stopped using it for like a month. So, when I used it today, I recalled I have not yet reviewed it. So, here it is!!

Well, the first time I used the product, I remembered loving the texture of the product. It is so fluffy and smooth and looks very very luxurious. I think that is what I fell in love with.

Pros

texture of the product is very luxurious

cleans the face really well

scrubs very gently and removes the dead skin cells on the nose gently

leaves a subtle glow

When I used it as a scrub cum face wash, it was really soft on skin and yet removed the dead cells gently. But, the mask part was not so amazing. But still it was fine.

I love the entire concept of face wash cum scrub cum mask. Actually, the reason is that since May, I was following the same thing using 3 different products in the shower which was resulting in a lot of time waste in washing off one product and applying the other!

Cons

glow does not last really long

no removal of blemishes or oil or evens skin tone

A single product which can actually take care of everything came like a god-send. I use oils to cleanse off my sunscreen and this product is good at washing off the oil. Well, I can only say that not all face washes remove the oil completely!!

And, the scrubbing if done everyday is not really good but may be you can just be really gentle with it. Well, overall, how the product performs is quite vague in my case!

It cleans the face really well and leaves a subtle glow at the end but the glow does not really last for long. May be in the long run it really does something for the skin but I did not really feel that way. The only reason I love it is because of its texture. But, yes, it is worth a try!!

Price: Rs 199 for 150ml

Availability

It is available easily everywhere but I got it from myntra.

Maybelline Lip Balms Mango Pie and Berry Crush Lip Balms Product Review

Baby Lips have been getting rave reviews since they were launched. And, who am I not to love them? So, let me start with Mango Pie. It keeps my lips moisturized for quite a decent time and also protects from sun. And, I absolutely love the berry crush. It gives my lips a very subtle tint and moisturizes equally well.

Pros

moisturizes really well

lasts for a decent time of 2-3 hours at the least

Berry Crush gives a very subtle and nice tint

protects from sun

Cons

has to be reapplied after eating or drinking
