NEW KIEHLS TURMERIC AND CRANBERRY RADIANCE MASQUE REVIEW

01:40:00

KIEHLS MASQUE with complimentary FACE WASH

Hello beauties,

Recently I have been tossing my skin care products and making some changes into my routine. Inspite of being such a damp humid weather I have started using Clarins Lotus Face Oil which is working amazing. So like every season I need my skin care products accordingly because your skin changes with every summer every winter and every rainy. So make sure you using right amount of moisturiser and right products for you skin. If it causes you more breakouts, oiliness or dullness or even small whitheads its time to make changes. Definitely I will be talking more about my skin care products but firstly I picked up this Newly launched Kiehls Turmeric and Cranberry Radiance Masque. Who doesn’t want a good clay masque in their routine. I have been really looking for a great masque which helps my skin give that extra boost of radiance. So here they have two masques one in orange jar and other one in green jar. The one in orange is for radiance it has turmeric and cranberry seed as the main ingredient. While the green one is for protecting your skin from pollution it has cilantro and orange as main ingredient.

So the energizing radiance masque is the one which will help you give that boost of radiance and getting back your skin glow. Turmeric is not only known for giving radiance to skin but also for its antibacterial properties. Now this masque comes of light yellow color with cranberry seeds. I really didn’t feel what was the use of cranberry seed here as its not a scrub and that granular seed how does it help. It’s a creamy masque so you may want to add some water or milk to make it thin paste and them apply. I like applying directly from the jar without adding anything to it. I feel the more thick the paste is it gives better result. Initially after application I felt little warmth in my skin. Nothing like burning or itching but there was just a sensation of warmth which made me feel that something is working on my skin. I kept for 15 mins and this warm sensation went away after few mins. I just washed of with water and here I got a very soft supple smooth skin. Also I noticed after washing face I didn’t felt much glow or brightening effect on my skin. But after 2 days I did feel my skin wash brighter glowy. And it had that energy. It really helps with fatigue and dull skin. I always like using scrub before the masque so my whiteheads and blackheads are completely removed. But just with the masque it doesn’t help clearing your whiteheads or black heads. It doesn’t cause any redness and irritation but if you have sensitive skin do a patch test on your side of neck. As this products are dermatologically tested you don’t have to worry. It doesn’t help in lightening any marks or blemishes and with acne skin it may sting little so be careful. May be after using complete jar I may get more satisfying results.

I got 28ml masque for 1350/-INR which makes it expensive. This may give you around 8 applications.

Recommended to all skin types. I won't say its totally worth it till I complete my jar. But some products really work well on some skin types. So this could give you more better results than mine. You can always go for smaller pack and try. It doesn’t dry out your skin or doesn’t reduce any oiliness but it definitely give you fresh and soft supple skin in just one use. OVERALL I am happy this masque does better job than many other clay masque. Looking forward to try their pollution defending masque too.

FOREST ESSENTIALS FACIAL TONIC MIST ROSE AND UBTAN REVIEW

11:29:00

Hello angels,

If you read my previous post on my skin care routine this is also part of it. Today I am going to review one of the most important products which I use almost every single day. This products are best for hot and humid weather with any skin type. Its suitable for even acne prone skin. Forest essentials FACIAL TONIC MIST in ROSE is a Pure rose water which comes in a plastic bottle with a nozzle. This comes in two different size I picked up the small one as I can carry it easily in my handbag. When sprayed from distance it gives a fine mist on face I usually have to spray 2-3 time for covering the entire face. It instantly refreshes and soothes my skin. It gives cooling sensation on skin. It also calms any redness and makes skin soft and supple. It does hydrate your skin but not much. So if you have oily to combination skin you may not require to put any moisturiser but if you have dry skin you can add some moisturiser over it. It smells like bunch of rose so pure and pleasant. Roses are my favourite flower and I absolutely loved this fragrance. Its very mild and lasts for few mins on face. I usually use this after every time I wash my face. I also make sure to spray it before I go to bed. Sometimes I use this before my makeup and it helps my foundation to blend in well. I absolutely love using this product during hot summer days. For long term use it makes your skin soft smooth and well hydrated also it does help with your pores.

Now lets come to ROOP NIKHAR GULAB UBTAN.

A fresh rose petal based formulation for a porcelain smooth glowing skin. Regular use leaves the complexion soft and glowing with radiant sheen. Roop Nikhar Gulab Ubtan contains Fresh Rose Petals, Orange, Lentil, Neem, Sandalwood, Turmeric, Ayurvedic herbs .

Its light yellow color powder which comes in a plastic jar with golden cap. This powder has fresh crushed rose petals which is easily visible. You just have to take half teaspoon powder and mix it with rose water, milk or water to make a creamy paste. Apply it on face and rub in circular motion for 5 mins then leave it for 2-3 mins on face as soon as it starts drying you can wash your face with water. Pat dry with towel. I was amazed with the results. This ubtan feels granular when rubbed on skin but not so coarse or hard. It has a strong smell of rose and many other ingredients. After using it for some time this smell didn’t bothered me.

I usually use this twice a week but if you feel your skin needs more you can use this every day also. Instantly my skin was glowing it eliminated my black heads and to certain extent white heads too. With regular use it claims to give you porcelain like skin which I truly agree. My skin was so soft, smooth and it gave me that radiant sheen. I felt my skin was not only exfoliated but also moisturised. Generally the scrubs give you dryness after using this ubtan it was completely different it didn't dry out my skin didn't gave me breakouts and it didn't cause any irritation or tingling on my skin. I wasn’t expecting such good results. But I think this is going to be my permanent skin care product.

Overall I completely recommend do try this products if you looking for something which is natural organic and Free from chemicals and preservative. Also if you are looking for some good results which other products fail to give opt for forest essentials. I think I am already in love with forest essentials and looking forward to try many more products.

ORGANIC HARVEST UNDER EYE GEL ACTIV ANTI DARK CIRCLE SERUM REVIEW

01:37:00

Hello beauties,

We are now at the beginning of new month. Summer is here and so does month of april.. Recently I have been going crazy trying for new skin care products especially for my under eye area. As a blogger I always keep on switching on to different products. But this time I thought of going organic with my skin care. Yes products which are chemical free paraben free cruelty free and lots more.

So I picked up few products from Organic Harvest I will be reviewing two in this post. One of the product is a Under Eye Gel and other from their Activ range ANTI DARK CIRCLE SERUM BRIGHT I ASH TREE BARK EXTRACT RANGE.

I am always pretty excited when I get something new for my skin its really amazing to have such wonderful products which just protects your skin from any harsh chemicals and preservatives.

This serum comes in a dark glass bottle with a dropper. Now this serum is from active range of organic harvest which is just being recently launched.

The quantity is 30 ml which will last you longer than you can think. All you need is just one drop of serum and apply it under your eye area. Massage it into anticlockwise using your finger tips. One drop of this serum is enough for both the eyes. Make sure it doesn’t get into your eyes as it can give you stinging and redness. This serum is a clear color liquid which instantly gets absorbed into skin. It does feel little sticky for time being but later feels very light and comfortable.

So after I put this serum I go with this Under Eye Gel it comes in a small plastic containers it’s a brown color gel when applied on serum it instantly gives a cooling sensation to my under eye area. I just massage it anticlockwise with my finger tip. I generally do this every single night before going to bed. It does feel little sticky and it also has some smell of natural herbal products. But overall doesn’t feel heavy or oily.

Now my take on this product. Trust me this two products work amazingly for your under eye dark circles as well as fine lines and wrinkles.

After application for 3-4 nights I observed my skin was feeling super soft and smooth. My under eye area remains hydrated for complete day. I could feel that due to enough hydration that little fine lines which I observed almost were less. Over a period of time I also see my dark circles had lighten I don’t have much of dark circles but this product works really well even on under eye bags puffiness and fine lines. After application next morning I feel my eyes feel refreshed and my under eye area looks much clear and hydrated. Though this product doesn’t give instant brightness for under eye area.

Overall I recommend this products for under eye dark circles treatment. It doesn’t cause any stinging while application. Sensitive eyes be careful of not getting this product near your eyes. Price its pretty expensive but you can tell every time when you apply this product that its working on your skin. This products is only to be used in pm. It helps in increasing blood circulation improving skin tone and color. If you are looking for skin care products which are cruelty free and paraben free also chemical free you can definitely check for Organic Harvest. We already use lot of chemicals in our makeup so I am trying to keep my skin care as free of chemicals as possible. I am really impressed with this two products..Had not expected it to give me so fast results. Have you tried Organic Harvest products ?

SUMMER HAVE -HIMALAYA OIL FREE RADIANCE GEL CREAM REVIEW

00:19:00

Hey beauties,

If you have read my Himalaya lip care post you would be definitely knowing that I also picked up this Oil Free Radiance Gel Cream. I really hate summers it so difficult to find a right product for your skin in this particular season where your skin can get easily oily but at the same time dehydrated. Well you also need that glow without having to look oily and without having to apply any rich creams and bases is tough task. Summer is all about making your skin feel light using a sheer makeup with just a pop of bold lip color. That’s the way I like my makeup too be. But with makeup I need a basic proper skin care to make my skin feel hydrated without making me feel sticky.

Now when I first noticed this cream I was super excited because it was exactly what I was looking for hot SUMMER days. Its oil free at the same time will give me that radiance now this product comes in a glass jar packaging with green cap. It’s a jar packaging so you need to dig in for product. The packaging is not travel friendly. The main ingredients are BARBARY FIG & WINTER MELON.

HIMALAYA HERBALS OIL FREE GEL CREAM

It’s a white coloured semi opaque thick jelly like cream. Now it doesn’t contain any spf so you can use them in your night routine or day time too. Whatever you are comfortable with it. Currently I am using this only for my night routine.

You don’t need much quantity just making 5 dots on face and massaging into my skin. Now this gel based cream is totally oil free it reminds me of l'oreal icy gel has a very fresh soothing fragrance you can smell melon in it. It feels like icy cooling gel when applied. Initially it just blends into skin effortlessly. It almost gets watery feel making skin little sticky to touch. But after few mins of application stickiness is gone and its almost like nothing has bee applied. I have a combination skin so it perfectly hydrates my skin. It gives a instant boost of radiance to my face. My forehead and nose look glowy which I totally love. I haven’t tried this cream beneath my makeup but if you use more quantity it will make you feel sticky and oily after sometime. This is not a mattifying cream so now even oily skin can have that glow without having too look or feel oily. It keeps my skin hydrated for 4-5 hrs. Its definitely not for use in winter except for you have really oily skin. Acne prone skin I would suggest that use as little as possible don’t load your skin with too much product. Its best for summer especially normal to oily skin types. They don’t give me any breakouts. If I use any cream which clog my pores I start noticing small whiteheads all over my face. But for now this hasn’t cause me any.
So overall a thumbs up for this product. The most amazing thing is it gives me instant glow. Now this also really depends on your skin but if you have a normal to combination skin it will work. Fragrance could be a con for this product but I like my products to be mildly fragranced and which don’t linger for long. Too much of product can cause trouble so apply little and see how it works. Its easily available and at very affordable price . This product is free from alcohol and preservatives.
