Khadi Herbal Neem Sat Shampoo Review

Hey girls,

Today I would be reviewing one of Khadi’s hair care product. I was quite satisfied with my Satinique shampoo that I have been using for years. I felt bored of it, so was thinking to change my shampoo for some time. I bought this shampoo around 2 months back from an e-commerce site and I am glad I picked it. Now, lets see how it worked on my hair.

Price and Quantity:

Rs. 95 for 210 ml

My Take:

This is my first purchase from Khadi and I absolutely love this shampoo. This shampoo comes in a typical Khadi flip top cap packaging.

The first time I used it, I was so surprised with the product.I had squeaky clean hair without any dryness. The shampoo is green in colour and the consistency is little runny. The shampoo does not lather too much but definitely removes oil effectively from hair without drying the scalp. The best part is I don’t need a conditioner with this shampoo. I love the fragrance of neem (might sound strange but its got a very pleasing neem smell).

I didn’t experience any itchy or irritated scalp after using this couple of times. It lives up to its claim. Overall, I am glad I found a right shampoo for my hair. My hair fall has been arrested to certain extent with regular use of this shampoo. I even tried on heavily oiled hair, it did perfectly clean my hair. It does not add shine or bounce to my hair neither it claims so. Overall I am happy with the results and I highly recommend this lovely product. Now I am getting tempted to try other Khadi products too 🙂

PROS:

Cleans well
Reasonably priced
Completely herbal
Huge quantity
Very pleasing fragrance
Bye bye to itchy scalp
Leak proof makes it travel friendly

CONS:

Availability is an issue (I picked up from an e-commerce site)

Rating: 4/5

So Do I Suggest?:

I do. Give it a try girls. You will surely thank me 🙂

Will I Repurchase?:

I am not sure if I will repurchase it immediately.Though I love this shampoo, I wish to try their other variants as well.

Do It Yourself Nourishing Coconut Banana Hair Pack

13 Replies

Hello everyone,

I am so excited to write my first DIY post on MABH. Today I am sharing one of my most trusted hair pack. These days knowingly or unknowingly we expose our hair to lot of chemicals. So, once in a while its important to give our hair all the nourishment it requires. This pack repairs dry and damaged hair better than our costly conditioners.

The first time I heard about this, I was skeptical about banana applied on hair. But after a bit of googling, I confidently tried it. And Voila!!! I was super satisfied with the outcome. Now, let’s get started.

About the ingredients:

Banana: Potassium, manganese and vitamins help’s in softening the hair and protects the hair’s natural elasticity. It also keeps hair hydrated and healthy.

Coconut: Coconut contains protein and iron that helps to strengthen hair. It also helps to repair damaged hair and treats dry flaky hair effectively.

Almond oil: Helps to nourish hair and skin, being rich in vitamins A, B1, B2, B6 and E. Also known to facilitate hair growth.

Ingredients Required:

Bananas – 2
Coconut grating – 1/2 cup
Almond oil – 2 spoon

Preparation Method:

Step 1: Make sure the bananas are fully ripe. Peel and cut them into pieces. Chop the coconut into small pieces. You can grate them either.

Step 2: Place them in a mixer jar and whip them couple of times. Now, grind them into a smooth paste adding little water.

Ste 3: Make sure there are no chunks or lumps. If found any, grind them again. And then transfer the paste to a clean bowl.

Step 4: Finally add two spoons of Almond oil. This step is optional but I highly recommend to do so. Along with the banana, almond oil makes your hair even more smoother.

Directions for use:

1. Make sure to comb your hair with a wide toothed comb before applying any hair pack.

2. Starting from scalp apply this pack all over your hair.

3. Let it dry for half an hour.

4. Wet hair and wash the pack thoroughly with plain water first.

5. Then apply shampoo and lather well. Rinse and repeat if required.

Things you need to make sure in this process:

1. Ingredients should be smoothly grind-ed. Otherwise, you will end up with bits of banana in your hair.

2. Always comb your hair before application of the pack. This is to ensure easy and even application of the product.

3. Don’t let the hair pack to dry completely. It becomes tedious to wash away the pack. Never exceed the 30 mins waiting time.

4. You can adjust the quantity according to your hair length.

Benefits:

As the name suggests, this pack gives all the nourishment your hair needs. This hair pack is tried and tested. You can feel the change in your hair texture after using it couple of times. You can try this on both damp and oiled hair. For best results use twice a week. I know it is messy job but it is definitely worth the result. Hope you found this article useful 🙂

Everyuth Naturals Orange Peel Off Home Facial Review and Swatches

7 Replies

Hello gorgeous ladies,

Summers are gone. Hope all of you are enjoying monsoon. Today I am reviewing Everyuth Naturals Orange Peel Off. I have been using their scrub for years. Though their face washes failed to impress me, I am quite satisfied with this Peel off.

Price and Quantity:

Rs.55 for 50 g

My Take:

The product comes in a sturdy white tube with a tight fitting screw type cap. The small and compact packing can be carried easily. The consistency is a bit runny but still smoothly glides on your face. The colour of this peel off is light orange.

The consistency and smell somehow reminds me of good old camel gum (remember the blue bottle ?). The smell is not pleasant, nut that doesn’t bother me much.

I followed the instructions as described. After leaving my mask undisturbed for 25 minutes, I checked for un-dried spots. For me, the best part of this whole process is the peeling!!! It’s so much fun to peel it off. After washing my face, there was a subtle glow. The glow lasts for a day or two. I was surprised to see that it didn’t dry out my skin. After washing with plain water, I didn’t need a moisturizer.

Make sure to tie your hair back or it’s best to use hair band while using this peel off mask. Leave the mask undisturbed for 20-30 minutes. If you have applied even and generous coat, there shouldn’t be a problem while peeling. Before you start to peel, see to that there are no un-dried spots. When you are running out of time for a facial, this peel-off mask is of great help. It gives an instant glow. I don’t think it’s a home facial rather I would call it an effective home clean up. A good product; worth a buy.
