Clean and Clear Deep Action Cleanser for Oily Skin Product Review

Swathy · January 12, 2016 · 3 Comments

Do you have an oily skin? Mine is not oily but combination which tends to get dry. Still, I tried this cleanser for oily skin. This face wash was an amazing find during my vacation. An amazing vacation. Anyways, coming back to the reality, I find myself in my living room instead of the gorgeous beaches and sand and clear skies. Uhhh…what day dreams! This face wash is supposed to control the oil and is SLS free. Now, let me detail my experience with this face wash.

Clean and Clear Deep Action Cleanser Product Review

Before starting the review, I want to state that I love this face wash even though it is supposed to be for oily skin. I do not know how but it really suited my face. I used this face wash in the evenings after removing the sunscreen. In the morning, I would stick to Vichy cleanser.

Nivea Refreshing Cleansing Milk Product Review

Long long back, I had used the Nivea cleansing milk and I had really liked it. Last month, when I finished with the Neutrogena cleanser, I decided to try this out again. With a new packaging and improved ingredient list, it has come up again on the shelves. So, check out my updated review of this nivea cleansing milk. I have strike-d off the previous review but it is available for you to read. Please feel free to tell me what you think about this product.

This was another of my longing impulse buys as the packaging looked really cute to me. I have never ever used a cleansing milk before this so when I used it, I am not sure I liked it much. And, then, the Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth cleanser arrived and this lay forgotten. But, I had to dig it out again after the Liz Earle sample got used up and believe me the 30ml sample did last me quiet long. Ok, may be due to the reason that I only need to take off the sunscreen!!! But, I am missing it!!! So, back to this review.

Nivea Refreshing Cleansing Milk Product Review (Buy it here)

A creamy product which spreads easily on the face and removes all traces of sunscreen. I have never used it with any kohl pencil so I can not say how well it removes waterproof products from the face. It is great at removing the foundation and tinted lip balms from the lips.

As the name suggests, it leaves the skin refreshed and hydrated. It suits very well. Not sure if it would be great for oily skin but I can say that the product is extremely light in texture and feels very air-y. The fragrance is just regular one associated with nivea products. Interestingly, when I was checking out my older review, I came across the ingredient list of the earlier nivea cleansing milk. You can see the difference between both of them 🙂

The Book Corner Vol. 6 – “Stolen Hope” by Shubha Vilas Book Review

Swathy · January 9, 2016 · Leave a Comment

“Excellence is a by-product of persistently choosing quality over quantity.”

Ramayana is a part of us. In fact, both Ramayana and Mahabharata constitute a big part of who we are and how we grow up. Every one has a different perception of every event in both the epics. But, one thing holds true. Whether these epics were history is immaterial but the values they constitute hold true in our lives and will always do. This is what started Shubha Vilas on his journey to pen down his own interpretation of Ramayana and how it holds true in today’s lifestyle and society, even in the corporate board rooms.

This reminds me of a professor I used to know. He used to say that Mahabharata and Bhagvad Geeta answers every single problem of this universe, even the unresearched topics, not just philosophy and psychology.

Delay Management is about understanding that some problems need not be solved now. Many problems are solved by just postponing the attempt to solve them.
