Soulflower Grapeseed Oil {Product Review}

January 22, 2014 Swati 4 Comments

I have been using this oil since quite long. Earlier I had been using it just for the hair as a leave-in serum but in December and Jan, I had been using it as a moisturizer as well. So, how did this work out?

Ok, let me first talk about the texture of this oil. Grapeseed is supposed to be one of the best oils for the oily skin because of its lightness. Thus, it works amazingly as a leave-in serum without weighing the hair down. I had also put couple of drops of rosemary essential oil into the oil.

Since my hair is dry in texture, I can say it worked fantastically for me and there were lesser hair splits than normal. Just a drop or two of the oil rubbed on the palm and finger tips helps control the dryness of the scalp and hair!! And, it also helps with controlling dandruff and stimulates hair growth which was my main motivation to buy it!!

Regarding how it works on skin, I used it in the months of winter so it was absorbed quickly into the skin. And, needless to say, it was quite non-greasy and it did keep my skin moisturized all the time. In the harsher winters, one might need a layer of another moisturizer to keep the skin from drying but for Hyderabad, this oil sufficed quite well.

Also, I have noticed now that I have stopped using the oil, my skin has become dull. I have not been using sunscreen since almost three months and this oil had protected my skin quite well against the sun damage. My skin was bright enough and did not look dry or aged. But, now it has started looking a bit like that and the lines under the eyes have deepened as well. So, yes, it does protect the skin pretty well.

Price : Rs 350 for 30ml

Have you used this oil? Did you like it?

My Hair Diary – April 2013

May 8, 2013 Swati 10 Comments

No snaps this time! Apologies! Anyways, I did not really take that much care of my hair as I did in March. I did not do anything special for my hair except once treating it with egg and musk root. Btw, egg with musk root and ginger essential oil did not really stink! 

What else did I do? 
Since summers are a bane for me, I made do with a few drops of Navratan oil almost twice or thrice a week. Seriously, it helps with tiredness and mild insomnia! The review will come in due time.

And, no, I do not wash my hair daily even though I sometimes really wish it. One tip is just let the sweat on the scalp dry out before you tie your hair. And, keep the scalp clean. Itching can be considered an indication to wash the hair. And, for some, I think the hair be better washed everyday if they travel daily in lot of sun and pollution.
Oh btw, I have also been taking some supplements of which I shall talk in another post so stay tuned!

  • Shampoo – Organic Surge Moisture Boost

My Hair Diary – March 2013

April 9, 2013 Swati 11 Comments

getting snaps of my hair is damn difficult on the new cam!

So, another month gone! And, this month I was pretty diligent about my hair 🙂 So, yay to that! But, unfortunately I am not as diligent on the posts so you would be missing the posts on Tuesday and Thursdays and weekends. And, I have yet to reply to comments!

What I did?
Moving on, I have been using Organic Surge. Coming up soon with the review. But, I am loving it for now. Its the only SLS-free shampoo I have used till now which actually cleansed the entire oil from the hair and made the hair pretty soft.
Next come the DIY’s I did this month. Well, I did get inspired by my friend and tried to take more care of the hair. I got musk root and used it with yogurt as much as possible. And, I used parachute advansed hot oil almost every time I washed the hair. But, not every time! 

yeah, that’s my hair just after washing without any serum or conditioner!

And, the next thing I followed this month was using Grapeseed oil with Rosemary EO on scalp and Pomegranate oil on the hair as an after-wash hair serum. But, one thing I had neglected was conditioner. I hardly used conditioner. 
One thing I noticed about my hair was that I was losing more of my hair if I did not wash it within two days and then it was getting itchy and very dirty. Well, this is what even my colleague complained. She told me that if even a little of sweat gets accumulated on her scalp, she starts losing hair and gets really itchy. And, if she is washing her hair daily, its behaving nicely! Yeah, the question is should we wash our hair daily? Let’s see!!

Soulflower Rose Geranium Aroma Massage Oil {Product Review}

Soulflower Rose Geranium Aroma Massage Oil Product Review at Perfect Skin Care for you

Price: Rs 450 for 90 ml

Ingredients

Soulflower Rose Geranium Aroma Massage Oil Product Review at Perfect Skin Care for you

Pros
smells of roses!!
makes skin soft and glowing
Cons
might not suit very dry skin in extreme winters
My Experience
Ok, I hate the product!! Why?? Because, everyone is asking me what I apply that I smell so rose-y!! Every one says they can smell my oil at the end of corridors or as soon as they climb the stairs of our floor. Can you imagine that?? Seriously!! One gal even started calling me Rose coz of this 🙁 😀

Soulflower Rose Geranium Aroma Massage Oil Product Review at Perfect Skin Care for you

Ok, moving on from the smell, the product is thick in texture and is a massage oil so I apply it at night. If you are going out, this is not a great choice!! Coz, it doesn’t really disappear into the skin. I have also noticed that it doesn’t help with extreme skin dryness or dry patches. 
I hate the packaging in fact. Its all plastic with no stopper. It has rose petals in it which gives a good visual effect to the soap. I wish it came in a glass packaging or anything more eco-friendly!! It makes a very luxurious sleep as well. 
So, should you try it? I would definitely say yes!! If you do not like the smell of roses, that’s a totally different issue. Actually, I did realize that I do not really love the smell that much but the extra attention was something which made me uncomfortable about the product.
