Satliva Cocoa Bliss Body Butter

July 13, 2018 PSCfy Partner 1 Comment

After a two week long hiatus, here I am again! A lot happened in these two weeks, my mom had been visiting, I recovered from a bad cold and a couple of other household and bank stuff to be taken care of. Coming back to the post, I have been using Satliva cocoa bliss body butter for more than a month now. I loved their charcoal soap and face cream but I am not yet sure of the body butter so lets check out what I feel about it.

Satliva Cocoa Bliss Body Butter Product Review

Price : Rs 610 for 40gms and Rs 960 for 100gms

Availability : Online Website

Made with Hemp seed Oil, Cocoa Butter, Moringa Oil, Jojoba Oil, Bees wax, Peppermint Essential Oil

Satliva cocoa bliss body butter comes in a tin packaging which I really like. It is eco-friendly and you can always reuse it. If you do not know what to do with it, melt and pour the candle wax and you have your bedside candle ready! I got the 40gms pack so I am not sure how the 100gms product is packaged. But, you would be better off with 100gms as it is a good bargain even if you just want to try it out.

On the Shelf Vol. 1 – Face Masks

June 22, 2018 Swati 8 Comments

If you are skin care fanatic, you would know how it is to have your shelves overflowing with products. I was just cleaning my dresser a few days back and I found I have quite a collection of face masks. All masks I have are clay based. I wish I had something soothing and hydrating to use after a long day in sun and do not have to struggle while taking off. Any recommendations?

Sheet masks are a good choice in those cases but somehow they have never really worked for me, even the super-expensive ones from SKII.

Face Masks on My Shelf

Just Herbs Petal Soft Anti-Tan Rose Face Pack

Price : Rs 445 for 150gms

I had bought this with a lot of hope but it does nothing special. I was hoping it would get rid of the tan. It just makes the face look fresh. I like to use it in the shower now as a morning cleanser sometimes and washing off is not exactly easy, just like with other clay masks.

Just Herbs Instaglow Almond Complexion Pack

Price : Rs 445 for 150gms

I was hoping this would be a creamy mask but it also turned out to be a mud mask. Again nothing much, just makes face look fresher.

Satliva Red Raspberry Face Cream

Finding the right moisturizer for your skin is downright the toughest task I have come across. It is easy to find a cleanser (not that easy, I admit, but then t gets washed off in a minute) or serum or even facial oil for that matter. But, not the moisturizer because it is supposed to stay at least 6-8 good hours. So, whenever I try a new moisturizer I am not usually optimistic and it was in same frame of mind I started using Satliva red raspberry face cream.

Over and above that this product has ~~shea~~ (sorry, it’s) mango butter which can be ~~extremely~~ moderately heavy and has hemp seed oil and raspberry oil. Especially given the weather and my combination skin, I thought I made the wrong choice when I was selecting the products for review. The only reason I picked this up was the presence of red raspberry oil which is known to be the best natural sun protector so if you can get your hands on the red raspberry oil, nothing better than that!!

Satliva Red Raspberry Face Cream Product Review

Price : Rs 750 for 40gms (definitely prohibitive!)

Availability : Online

Made with Hemp Seed Oil, Mango Butter, Red Raspberry oil, Geranium essential oil, Jojoba Oil, Carrot seed oil and Tea tree oil.

Satliva Hemp with Shea Butter and Activated Charcoal Soap Bar

If you have been following me long enough, you would know by now that I really like charcoal based products. Ever since the concept came out, I have used various face washes and masks from different brands. I currently have the ones from L’Oreal and The Body Shop, both I am really liking. And, I have my eyes on the Aroma Magic bamboo charcoal face pack as well. So, anyways, let us see how does a charcoal soap do for our body.

The charcoal powder in the soap gives a nice gentle scrub to the body while the soap glides all over, thanks to the shea butter.

Price : Rs 379 for 100gms

The soap comes in a beautiful packaging and looks nice on the counter. It feels buttery to touch inspite of the gritty look. It lathers very little but just like with other handmade soaps, it melts pretty quickly so do not let it sit in water. The best way to use any handmade soap is to lather it between the palms and then use it.

3 Personal Favorites from Forest Essentials

May 25, 2018 Swati 4 Comments

I finished using the forest essentials hair vitalizer serum just this week and that reminded me that I could probably share my best products from Forest Essentials just like I did with Kama last week. Recently, I did quite a few product reviews from the brand and almost all of them are a huge hit for me.

In fact, I can not wait to buy the tejasvi emulsion but I am holding my horses because of the cost and also because I am getting a few other amazing products which I am dying to try. Yeah, I did my first international online shopping this month! And, man, is it not easy to spend money when the shipping is free? I hope the customs also gets free though 🙂

Oh by the bye, regarding the hair vitalizer serum from the brand, I am not a fan at all. I prefer the Biotique mountain ebony which is way cheaper and also it did give better results. Forest essentials hair vitalizer serum also smells strong and the fragrance stays for almost a day which is really difficult to bear for my nose. Overall, I would say you can skip it though I know it has rave reviews all over the internet. Anyways, so let me share my favorites from the brand.
