Forest Essentials Hydrating Sea Salt Crystal Rose Body Polisher

April 13, 2018 Swati 4 Comments

As mentioned in this interview, salt scrubs and sugar scrubs are the best for the body! The Forest Essentials Hydrating Sea Salt Crystal Rose Body Polisher is my first salt scrub. Before this, I had used one from the body shop which I loved a lot but it was more of a butter than a scrub. This one, however, is a scrub and a moisturizer as well because of the oil suspension. In fact, this is one of the easiest DIY’s to do at home as well. So, you know what is the next DIY you are gonna see!!

But, the best part of using the scrub, for me, is not the silky soft skin but amazingly fragrant skin which has a beautiful sheen to it.

Price : Rs 2750 for 300gms

Definitely expensive, especially given that I got hardly 10 uses from the jar. I do tend to overuse my products so may be you will get 15-18 uses overall but then the price is definitely on the higher side. The Forest Essentials Hydrating Sea Salt Crystal Rose Body Polisher is a truly luxury item and the ultimate skin spa as it claims to be. Save it for special occasions.

Ever wondered if a product looks amazingly beautiful? Well, I think this one comes in that category. It is red in color, looks interesting and convinces you to try it. The brand name helps as well. I fell in love with tejasvi emulsion by just using its sample. And, it is one of my favorite luxury products which is not absolute essential but definitely does good for the skin.

Price : Rs 1,675 for 25 gms

Extremely expensive in my opinion! But, then you need only a little for each usage and you can use it only for special events and occasions or for pampering yourself in case you like to save up on the product. Otherwise, once a week of usage is recommended.

So, what do you think about forest essentials body wash? Do you like the brand? Sometimes, I do think it is over-hyped but then there are some gems which are absolute delight to use. Now, whether forest essentials body wash is a delight to use or not, I love and would recommend their Tejasvi emulsion. I have a sample and I have used it just a few times but loved the texture and how it goes on the skin. Absolute luxury.

Beauty Products I am Disappointed With

December 19, 2016 Swati 6 Comments

Do you not hate when you buy beauty products and they do not do what is expected of them? It hurts worse when they are so expensive! These are a few beauty products I have been using for the past few months, both expensive and inexpensive, which sucked for me, literally. So, lets start.

Forest Essentials Facial Cleanser Mashobra Honey, Lemon & Rosewater

Price : Rs 1,075 for 200ml

I have already reviewed this product but that was way before my skin care troubles. And, that is when I realized the face wash was not really cleaning my skin properly.

So, yes, it is a bad face wash for evening and clogs the pores. I would say avoid all the face washes from natural brands. Seems like a universal problem.

Neutrogena Extra Gentle Cleanser

Price : Rs 499 for 200ml

Similar to the above face wash, this product was too gentle for a deep cleansing routine. So, again a huge disappointment from a brand which usually does not fail.

Vichy Purete Thermale Micellar Water

Price : Rs 990 for 200ml

Forest Essentials Facial Cleanser Mashobra Honey, Lemon & Rosewater Product Review

Today I am reviewing the forest essentials facial cleanser. But, before that, let me share I did something with you.

I finally got to visit Charminar on Ramzan night. And, it was fabulous. There is jostling and pushing and everything but nothing could beat the lights and merriment and the famous Nimrah Cafe’s irani chai and osmania biscuits. It is a experience which should be done every year!!

Anyways, coming back to the forest essentials facial cleanser, I am double minded about it even after using for 3-4 months.

Skin Type, Texture and Fragrance

This face wash is meant for dry and normal skin.

Forest Essentials facial cleanser comes in two fragrances – rose and neem. I suppose. I like Mashobra honey range of products with them for their amazing fragrance specially their body oil. It is heavenly.
