The moisturizer is supposed to be followed after the Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish Hot Cloth and Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic. Before starting on with the review, I would like to say that my skin reacts very differently to the moisturizers as opposed to other skin care products. They either make me sweat or leave me dry. I don't know why my skin behaves so errant in case of moisturizers. You must have seen a conspicuous absence of reviews on moisturizers except Dabur Gulabari which I liked … [Read more...] about Liz Earle Skin Repair Moisturizer {Product Review}

So, I'll just mention the key ingredients here: Organic Aloe Vera, Calendula, Rose-scented Geranium, Cucumber and Natural Vitamin E.

Lush Gorilla Perfumes – Short Description {Product Review}
I went to Lush today and was very curious about the perfumes launched recently. So, I asked for the Tuca Tuca and Imogen Rose sticks to try them out. So, the sales girl applied one on one hand and the other on other hand. Price: 600 INR for Tuca Tuca and 1200 INR for Imogen Rose (approx) My Experience Well, you might end up hating these perfumes if you take a sudden whiff because it has a unique raw wild smell which completely assaults your nostrils.

Himalaya Protein Conditioner Softness and Shine {Product Review}

Ingredients Key Ingredients: China Rose and Lotus (hair conditioners), Chickpea and Oats (proteins) My Experience I am not one to believe that the shampoos and conditioners must belong to the same product range. I do use conditioners which I like and the shampoos often turn … [Read more...] about Himalaya Protein Conditioner Softness and Shine {Product Review}
Franc Essential Exfoliate and Serum {Product Review}
Why did I club these two and those two in the earlier post. Simple reason, I loved these samples. The problem with earlier samples was that they are products which you need to use consistently to judge them where as in the case of Exfoliate, it is a scrub which I have used twice on face and loved it (still left for 1-2 more uses) and in case of Serum, I have been using it since a week and some more is left (might last for another week). So, I have used enough of both of these products to say … [Read more...] about Franc Essential Exfoliate and Serum {Product Review}
Franc Essential Cleanse and Body Melt {Product Review}
I will be talking of two products today and I will be writing about the remaining two in the next post. I received a sample each of all the four (above pic) so this won't exactly be a review. Instead, I would describe my limited experience with the samples. Lets start with the Cleanse and wrap up with Body Melt. Do visit their online store to check out their other products. They do have an interesting range of products and their ingredient lists are worth a look (almost natural). Franc … [Read more...] about Franc Essential Cleanse and Body Melt {Product Review}

Himalaya Refreshing Fruit Pack {Product Review}
Ok, so this one has papaya and apple. Price: 60 INR for 50gms Ingredients My Experience It smells the same but a little toned down just like the Walnut scrub. You can definitely feel something has changed in the product. It is creamy and spreads easily. No problems in that. The color resembles the inner core of papaya :) It dries off easily in 15-20 minutes and removing it with a sponge is not difficult as it is not like a clay mask which hardens. The first thing you will notice … [Read more...] about Himalaya Refreshing Fruit Pack {Product Review}
