Ethicare Remedies FaceMed Gel Review

Hi

I had been holidaying since last week and just came back home last evening. I didn't post much in last few days, so here I take time to share yet another product review post today. I am writing for Facemed gel from Ethicare Remedies today.

Product Info:
Facemed with its special non-oily gel base helps to rejuvenate face, lightens dark spots & fights the signs of ageing & fine lines, keeping your skin the way it should be. Regular use of facemed gel gives you perfect radiant skin all year long.

Ingredients:
Vitamin C…………………..5.00%
Niacinamide………… …….6.00%
Sodium Hyaluronate…..…...1.00%
Salicylic Acid…………....…0.50%

Price: 250/-

Qty: 10 gm 

Shelf Life: 18 months

Packaging:
The Facemed gel comes in a small soft tube packaging in pink color. The tube has a thin nozzle tip that makes it easy to squeeze only required quantity for every use. The cap on the neck of the tube gets tightly screwed to avoid any spillage. The tube is encased in a cardboard carton. Both the outer carton and the tube have every required detail printed on them. The size of the tube makes it travel friendly as well coz its quite easy to throw in a corner of your handbag.

My Experience:
Facemed is a clear gel in pale golden yellow color. The gel is almost fragrance free, but if you bring it closer and smell, slight peculiar fragrance can be smelt which is not bothering.
The gel is a leave-on formulation and need not to be rinsed off, so I preferred applying it once a day in the night because the skin doesn't attract much dirt when you are at home and night is the best time to help the product work effectively.
On application, the gel causes no sticky feel rather gets easily absorbed within skin with only few gentle strokes. So the claims of being oil-free is absolutely true for this gel.

The skin experiences mild cooling n tightening that I actually like and the face is left with an instant glow. The ingredients used in this gel work towards anti ageing quite deeply. Niacinamide is known for its multiple benefits. It doesn't let the skin lose its water content and improves skin's elasticity. Salicylic Acid exfoliates skin and improves its texture and color. It is claimed to be very effective for the treatment of photo-aging. And in conjunction of these ingredients, Vitamin C is a savior of skin nutrients as we all know. So the formulation is a long term skin friendly product overall.
The only issue that I didn't like much is the quantity offered in the packaging is too less to notice major changes in your skin.

Pros:
Light on skin.
Soothes the skin.
Absorbs without much effort.
Hygienic n travel friendly packaging.
Effective ingredients.

Cons:
I wish it had mild fragrance.
Less quantity per pack.
Expensive.

Final Word: 
Facemed gel is an oil-free formulation that helps the skin delay the signs of ageing, but after a prolonged use. It can be used by people of any skin type since its a water based product that doesn't break out the skin.

Liftage Intensive Age Defying System By Ethicare Remedies

Hi

Here is my opinion on an age defying product that I have been using since last month. I have used few other similar products and tried Liftage Intensive Age Defying System by Ethicare Remedies expecting better results. Do read if I found it suitable for my concerns..

Product Claims:

Takes dual action against ageing. Anti wrinkle treatment that combines two of the latest generation of mimetic peptides. Effective for Aging, Wrinkels, Pariobital Hyper Pigmentation, Fine Lines etc

Ingredients:

Argireline,Seaweed extract, Liquorice extract,Vitamin A, Sodium Hyaluronate, Silicon Oil.

Price: Rs 259

Qty: 15 gm

Packaging:

The product comes is a soft squeeze tube which is packed in a cardboard carton. Both the carton and the tube have all the details printed on it. I appreciate printing complete details on outer carton as well so that a buyer can read carefully before final purchase.

My take on product:

I am writing this review after finishing the entire content in the tube. But let me tell you frankly, I researched about its ingredients prior the application to know what is special about Liftage's formulation. I got to know about a powerful marine ingredient 'Seaweed' which is an extraordinary wealth of mineral elements from the sea and provides protective outer surface to the skin. The peptides are known to boost collagen production in skin that helps to improve skin elasticity and reduces wrinkles. Liquorice extract imparts potent antibacterial & soothing properties and lessens the intensity of age spots. Vitamin A helps increase collagen production and cell turnover, for tighter, fresher looking skin. Argireline prevents the formation of wrinkles by inhibiting muscle movement.

The cream is white in color. The consistency is just the perfect one to easily spread on skin. There is mild fragrance in the cream which won't hurt anyone.

After a thorough research on the ingredients used, I had high hopes from the Liftage Intensive Age Defying System, but I had decided already to give it a time of almost 2 weeks to get noticeable results. I began using it once a day before going to the bed at night. Since my main concern to choose this product was to reduce the dark circles, I mostly used it as an under-eye treatment. But also spread it on the skin around my eyes many a times.  

The first thing that got cured after using Liftage was flaking and irritation which is my most troublesome skin concern. Prolonged usage of liftage brightened the skin, fighting back the usual dullness without triggering irreversible pigmentation. Few light patchy spots near eye area are completely gone. The dark circles are definitely lightened, though not vanished. But as we all know, nothing works overnight. I am keeping patience to buy yet another pack of Liftage and continue using it for finest outcome.

Pros:

Excellent ingredients.

Effective on dark spots and dark circles.

Best product for this price.

Soothing fragrance.

No side effects

Reasonably priced for its ingredients.

Cons:

availability may be an issue.

Conclusion:

With the right ingredients you want for your skin minus the exaggeration of existing problems. Liftage Intensive Age Defying System is an considerable, innovative skin repairing product that helps to maintain a radiant, youthful look by preventing appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
