Everyuth Naturals Orange Peel Off Home Facial Review and Swatches

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.

PROS:

  • Adds instant glow
  • Removes dirt
  • Doesn’t dry out skin
  • Makes skin soft and supple
  • Reasonably priced
  • Sturdy packaging

CONS:

  • Glow doesn’t last long
  • Parabens and other chemical ingredients is downside for me

 

Rating: 3.8/5

 

So Do I Suggest the product?:

Yes, I do.


Will I Repurchase?:

I surely will.

Jovan Musk Perfume Deodorant Spray For Women Review

Hi beauties,

Hope you are all having a great time. Today I am going to review the Jovan Musk for Women Perfumed deodorant spray. Jovan, Inc. introduced their fragrance range in 1972. I picked this deo from Health and glow a little while ago. I was searching for a good deo for summer. I have been using Dove and Nike range over these years. Since I was planning to try something new, I brought this one with no second thought. Please read further to find out about my experience.

Price and Quantity:

Rs. 175 for 150 ml (95 g)

 

My Take:

Lets first see what Musk means. Musk is an odorous glandular secretion from the male musk deer and is extensively used in manufacture of perfumes. The substance has been used as a popular perfume fixative since ancient times and is one of the more expensive animal products in the world. Modern use of natural musk pods occurs in traditional Chinese medicine. Ayurveda considers musk as a life saving drug and used in various cardiac, mental and neurological disorders.

This deodorant comes in a long cylindrical can with a spray nozzle. It has bright orange coloured outer body along with an orange cap that fits in tightly. The packing is kept simple with no prints over it. Packing is travel friendly. But when I spray it, it causes little burning sensation. The burning sensation stays for 1-2 minutes and then goes away. After waxing, I don’t prefer using deo’s over skin for 2-3 days. So, I spray them on my clothes. And, I was glad it didn’t leave any white patch on the clothes.

Coming to the fragrance part, I was quite disappointed. I really could not explain the smell but it’s not fruity nor floral. I personally feel that fruity/floral smell makes me more relaxed. But this strong and musky fragrance bother’s me a lot. The fragrance stays up to 5 hours. If you stay out the whole day, you might need re-application.This has got nothing to do with whitening of underarms nor anti antiperspirant and neither it claims so.Overall I would rate it as an average product.

PROS:

  • Inexpensive
  • Travel friendly

 

CONS:

  • Over powering fragrance
  • Burning sensation
  • Alcohol content

 

Rating: 3.5/5

 

Girls who don’t prefer floral fragrance can try this. Once the product gets over, I wish to explore other brands!

Lotus Herbals Safe Sun 3 In One Matte Look Daily Sunblock with SPF 40 Review

Hey people!

How many of you have despaired going out during the day in summer season and come back 4 shades darker? I, for one, have hated it like crazy, and truthfully speaking, nothing really helps coming back from spending time in the sun all itchy and sticky and dirty. But I have my defense set up. A simple sunblock works for me.


Price and Quantity: 

Rs.225 for 50 g

My Take:

The packaging is a standard Lotus one – shocking orange with a flip top to keep everything hygienic. I carry it around a lot and it does not leak or drip at all. That apart, the texture of this product is runny and it is like a tinted moisturizer. One of the reasons why I absolutely love it is because it gives my skin an instantly even texture and removes excess oils, making my skin look instantly fresh and clean. It is slightly chalky if not blended in properly, so make sure to thoroughly blend it in. It takes a minute to get fully blended in, but it immediately makes the face look more even-toned.

The scent of this product is very pleasant, like sandalwood, which is my favorite, and at times I use this purely for the scent itself. If you are one of those people who love a multi-tasking product, you would love this one. Acting as makeup base, sunblock and mattifying agent, this product makes sure your skin does not look oily and sticky. It stays for hours and makes sure your makeup stays put. I generally put this on before putting on my makeup, and I instantly see my face look fresh and clean. I have also seen that it has a very soothing effect on my sensitive combination skin, and does not break me out at all.

The lasting power of this one is about 2-3 hours in the sun, after which you must reapply it for it to work. It is great for those who are office goers and for those going to college  as it works as a great beauty beginners’ product. It is slightly pale on girls under NC 45 skin tone, so you have to blend it in properly. Otherwise, a fantastic product for its price, and something I have seen all skin types use without any issue. Dry skinned girls, like my sister, love this as well.

PROS:

  • Travel friendly
  • Evens skin tone
  • Does not break me out
  • Mattes skin
  • Suitable for every skin type
  • Available in most places
  • Great as a makeup base
  • Reduces oil from face

CONS:

  • Needs to be blended in
  • Has to be reapplied after 2-3 hours

 

Rating: 4/5

 

My Recommendation:

I love it, it’s very useful and really good for the price you have to pay. Go get it!
