Vegetal Fairness Cream Review

Hi

I had reviewed Vegetal Fairness Face Pack last month and it gave quite satisfactory result. But the I decided to boost the performance by using Vegetal Fairness Cream followed by the face pack. Because if the skin remains dull & uneven, only the face pack cannot offer the glowing skin. And today I'm ready to speak about the same.
Product Info:
Vegetal Fairness Cream enhances the complexion, evens out skin tone, imparts a natural glow and reduces the appearance of blemishes due to Citrus, Rose, Aloe Vera. It’s easy application and absorption helps to nourish skin more effectively.
Key Ingredients: 
  • Juglans regia (Walnut) extract: Gives nourishment, 
  • Citrus reticulata (Orange) extract: Helps to rejuvenate the skin while also refining its texture and brightens skin tone, 
  • Rosa centifolia (Persian Rose) extract: Lightens the skin colour, 
  • Aloe barbadensis (Aloe Vera) extract: Moisturizes, soothes and softens your skin. 
  • Camellia sinensis (Tea) extract: has potent antioxidant
Packaging: 
Vegetal Fairness Cream comes in a tub packing following the color theme of white n green like many other products in their range. The tub container is placed in a cardboard carton. There is a protective seal under the screw cap which carefully seals the product inside. The ingredients list is printed on the tub as well as outer carton.
MRP: INR 268 for 50 gm.
Direction for use: Clean the face and neck with a cleanser. Apply Vegetal Fairness Cream all over the face and neck in upward circular motions, use twice or more than that a day. Suitable for all skin types. 
My experience with the product:
To begin with my opinion about the product, let me first declare that I celebrate the skin tone n complexion I am born with and have no intention to look milky white ;) I believe fair skin is no way a token of real beauty. But still there are factors that affect everybody's skin in adverse way and we all need to protect it from getting damaged. Just for this reason, I started using Vegetal Fairness Cream that is made of bio-actives of Rose and Orange. 

It is a white color cream with similar consistency like the usual creams. Its fragrance resembles a lot like a baby lotion but I don't mind if I smell so ;) The fragrance lasts for quite some time and then fades away.
The cream boasts of no chemicals and bleaching agents in it, that turns out to be one of its positive. The texture of the cream is such that it easily blends and disappears as you massage it on your skin. I like the instant whitening of the skin that can make you look fairer if getting ready to go out. But the cream dries out my already dry skin, so I need to base it first with a light moisturizer. I believe it will be much admired by normal and oily skin people.

I have been using this cream for last few weeks now and can say that it worked on imparting a glow to my skin. I use it as a day cream and apply it while leaving for office everyday. The dullness of my skin has reduced to certain extent and I am still continuing to gain long lasting even-toned skin in coming time.

Pros:
1. Contains bio-active extract of Orange & Rose.
2. Effective lightening formula.
3. Gives visibly fairer skin.
4. No bleaching agents & No harmful chemicals
5. 100% safe & natural.
6. Suits normal to oily skin
7. Provides instant whitening.

Cons:
Not ideal for dry skin (atleast happened in my case)
May seem expensive, but a little quantity is effective per usage.

Fuschia Rose Natural Handmade Soap Review

Natural handcrafted soap is a luxurious tool in keeping your skin healthy. With its creamy lather, wonderful fragrance, and now affordable prices, pampering yourself has never felt so good. Its popularity is growing rapidly as a chemical free alternative to conventional soaps.

And when you get to try a purely natural soap that is beautifully scented of crushed rose petals, you cannot miss to boast of awesomeness n luxury added to your bath n body care routine. I like sweet smelling products which give me feminine feel somehow. The rose fragrance is one of them which I find really lovable.  

When I noticed a Rose based Natural Handmade Soap in Fuschia's soap range, I could not resist giving it a try since it looked so glorious. This soap belongs to Designer Soap range of handmade soaps. And you may easily acknowledge why... Just look at the beautifully crafted Red Rose on the pearl white soap.

The soap comes neatly packed in a transparent film, unlike most of Fuschia soaps which have an outer covering of handmade sheet around the soaps and I like the idea of not covering this soap, coz this beauty deserved to be exposed ;)    
The description on the soap bar misses the ingredient list and shelf life which makes me feel low. Because every buyer doesn't access the online info on the site to know about the product details. So I wish the brand should make a point to provide key constituents on the soap bar specifications.

The soap bar gives you a high as you hold it in your hands. Its a softer textured soap than commercially available soaps. The captivating scent of fresh roses prompts you to take a deep breath as you sniff it. My li'l son felt so excited to bathe with this soap that he didn't bother about what time of the day is that ;)

I was curious to test whether this cute red rose will remain fixed within the soap bar after few usage and I am happy to share that after almost 2 weeks of daily usage, it has not even lost its shape :)

The soap produces enough lather and feels creamy soft on skin. I have used the soap on entire body other than face. It makes the skin feel squeaky clean and doesn't take away natural oils from skin. But for my dry skin, I always use a body lotion after the shower. I believe oily to normal skin people may skip moisturizing it.

The soap doesn't melt very quick, but I still take care of giving it a quick rinse and leave it to dry on the soap-dish to make it last longer.

I cannot comment on its effectiveness on common skin disorders as I have no such issues. But it gives a cool soothing feel to itching skin due to sweat etc.
Qty: 100 gms.
Price: 225/-

Pros:
1. Made with natural ingredients, fragrance and Essential Aroma Oils.
2. Offers Healing & Curative Properties - common skin disorders like acne, eczema and psoriasis can be treated.
3. Contains Anti-Oxidants.
4. Based on Glycerin” that is a natural humectant / moisturizer.
5. Luxurious Look.
6. 100% Vegetarian (but not edible)
7. Doesn't melt excessively.
8. Causes no skin allergies.
9. Soothes the itching of skin.

Cons:
1. Widely available online, but may not be seen at offline stores easily.
2. No ingredients mentioned on the packaging.

Fuschia Rose Natural Handmade Soap is a soap makes its presence felt in my washroom as the entire area remained fragrant all the time. The moment you step in, you are compelled to give it a look ;) It is wonderful bath luxury to try, specially in summers to enjoy a fresh start of the day :)

Hope you find the review helpful..Do let me know your views on the same...

Vedantika Herbals Rose-Sandal face wash Review

Hi

Todays review is of a facewash that smells like fresh rose flowers. As I started using this facewash, I realized that I have not used any beauty product that has rose as ingredients since long. So lets move ahead towards the product detailing...

Product Details:
This mild cleanser comes from the finest botanical to wash away dirt and oil, leaving skin clean and fresh. The healing properties of Sandal wood oil repair skin and soothe irritation while steam distilled, pure essential rose oil improves blood circulation. making face softens and brightens the skin.

Key Ingredients -Rosa, Santalum Album, Crocus Sativus, Purified Water & Gel base Q.S. 
The product is enriched with herbal extracts of Rose Flower oil, Sandalwood Oil, Aloe Vera Gel, Rose Water.
*Rose Flower Oil - Treats dry and sensitive skin.

*Sandal Wood Oil - Draws out the excessive heat and keeps the skin cool.

*Aloe Vera Gel - Promotes cell growth and healing; extremely penetrates subcutaneous tissues and muscles for maintaining hydration.


Price: Rs 185 
Qty: 100 ml
Shelf Life: 2 yrs  
Availability : Can be bought from online stores like Flipkart, Snapdeal, Amazon.
Packaging:
The product comes in a transparent plastic Pump dispenser which makes it easy to eject drops of liquid facewash. The spray nozzle is covered with a plastic cap that shuts tightly and prevents leakage. 
My Experience:
The Vedantika Herbals Rose-Sandal face wash is a gel based cleanser in light pick color that seems almost colorless in first look. A little quantity as of a size of pea lathers sufficiently well so you may expect one bottle to last more than a month. 
The consistency of the cleanser is as thick as I expected from a gel based product. So when you press the dispeser, no extra or unwanted quantity oozes out in one go.
As per the usage instructions on the bottle, apply the cleanser on wet face and gently massage it in upward motions to generate lather and cleanse the skin. I loved the fragrance of rose mixed with a hint of sandalwood in it that makes a refreshing combination. 
On the application of this cleanser, the skin actually gets rid of excessive oil, dirt and other types of pollutants. I didn't experience any over dryness, tight  or stretchy feel on skin post application. It rinses off very easily without much effort to rub the skin. Few splashes of water on the face rinse the cleanser from skin.
People with normal skin type won't need to moisturize the skin after its usage. Because this face wash leaves the skin moderately hydrated and moisturized. But I have to moisturize my skin most of the times, since my skin is more on drier side. 
This cleanser not only removes impurities from skin, but also draws out the excessive heat and keeps the skin cool with its naturally effective ingredients.
Pros:
Natural Ingredients
Skin Safe
Mild Fragrance
Cost Effective
Lathers Well
Travel Friendly Packaging.
No harmful effect on skin.
Suitable for sensitive skin type too.

Cons:
Not readily available offline at supermarkets etc.

Overall I can say that Vedantika Herbals Rose-Sandal face wash works for skin, not against skin. It perfectly maintains the skin's balance without disturbing the need of natural oils within the skin.
