Avon Naturals Antibacterial Peach Hand Gel Review

by Arshita

Hello dear friends!
Enjoying rainy days? I am enjoying a lot. Anyways, how many of you think hand sanitizers are important stuff? I do! I do not step out without my hand sanitizer. And today I am going to review Avon Naturals Antibacterial Hand Gel.

Product Description:

Kills 99.99% of bacteria in 15 seconds! Keeps skin clean and moisturized. Kills germs without water! Leaves skin feeling soft and smooth.

Price and Quantity:

Rs. 149 for 50 ml.

Key Ingredients:

Shelf Life:

3 years.

My Take on Avon Naturals Antibacterial Hand Gel:

This hand gel comes in a cute tiny bottle with a flip cap at the bottom. The smell is heavenly. The gel is a semi thick transparent gel.

Honestly, for the last two years, I have become some kind of germ-freak; especially while travelling. Those unhealthy airport washrooms, and cars, I do not feel safe anywhere. That is why I keep always my hand sanitizer handy; even if I am not eating, I keep using it (such a freak!). Anyways, I have used Himalaya and Life boy Hand Sanitizers before and now let’s see how my experience with Avon Hand Gel is.

I got this in peach variation; and that is why the smell is out of the world. The other hand sanitizers smell almost like alcohol or have very strong smell. But, this one smells beautiful. Only a drop covers both the palms and also back of the palms. The other good part is it does keep my hands soft and moisture. I have no idea how much germs it can kill (I am no scientist!) but I like believe that this works fine. Looking at the ingredients list, I can understand that this is not only a hand sanitizer; it is also to keep hands soft.

The only disappointing point I have found is that, the bottom flip cap may cause wastage of the product. When, I open it in a hurry, more than required gel falls out because of its upside down position.

Overall, I loved this hand gel. I was so tired of using strong smelling hand sanitizers; Avon Hand Gel is perfect for those who cannot bear strong smell.

Why I like this Hand Gel?:

Heavenly smell.
Fair pricing.
Decent amount.
Only a drop does the work.
Keeps hand soft and moisture.
Not strong smelling.
Cute packaging.
Very good for travelling.
Small bottle, fit into purse.

Why I don’t like this Hand Gel?

Availability. The bottom flip cap.

MABH Rating: 5/5.

Do I Recommend?:

Yes. Especially for kids, they will love the smell.

Would I Repurchase?:

Hell yeah! I am going to try other variants also!

by Arshita

Hello pretty women! Gone are the days when ladies used soaps on their faces (the thought even scares me now). And when I saw a soap named as fairness bar made me think, ‘fairness for body?’ Anyhow, I had to try this soap and today I am going to share my experience of using this Fairness Bar Soap with you all.

Product Description:

Avon Naturals Fairness Bar Soap contains a blend of natural ingredients to help lighten the appearance of the skin. Provides mild and gentle cleansing that leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth. Suitable for all skin types.

Price & Quantity:

Rs. 75 for 100g.

Usage Direction:

Wet body. Apply bar soap directly onto skin. Work into a creamy lather. Rinse thoroughly. Use daily.

Shelf Life:

3 years.

Key Ingredients:

My Take on Avon Naturals Fairness Bar Soap:

Avon Naturals Fairness Bar Soap is baby pink in color and quite large in quantity. The smell is very soapy, if you know what I mean; yet nice.

It lathers pretty well. Also, it is easy to wash off; it does not leave any slippery feel. It cleans skin very nicely. The nice flowery smell stays for a while. It has been a long time since I have used any normal soap, and I still remember some of the soaps that leave a white cast on the body for some reason. Well, luckily I did not experience anything like that with this soap. Also, it gives me some kind of satisfaction when I did not find SLS in the ingredients list.

It makes my skin squeaky clean and also never dries out. This is what really surprised me that after using this soap, I did not feel the urge to use body lotion (saved my time!). My semi-dry skin on the body was perfectly balanced in moisture after using this soap. But, as per its name, I did not notice any fairness affect (not that I expected!).

Overall, I liked this soap, it is worth using. It did not do any bad to my skin, moreover, it kept my skin soft and moisture for longest time.

The Good Points:

Herbal Soap.
Good quality soap.
Fair pricing.
Quite large quantity.
Smells nice.
Cleans skin very well.
Does not leave any slippery affect.
Keeps skin soft and moisturized.
Gentle soap.

The Not-So-Good Points:

There is none!

MABH Rating: 5/5. (See it as a normal soap, forget the name)

Do I Recommend?:

Yes, it is a nice soap for daily use.

Would I Repurchase?:

Maybe not. I am not really a soap user. 😛

Avon Advanced Techniques Straight and Sleek Conditioner Review

Hello pretty ladies! I am here with a review for a conditioner today, one of my favorite ones at that. This is the Straight and Sleek Conditioner from Avon’s ‘Advanced Techniques’ range. They have many different shampoos and conditioners in this range for different needs but since I don’t like to experiment much with my shampoos, I decided to try out this particular conditioner. So let’s see how this product fared for me 🙂

Price and quantity:

Rs 199 for 200 ml, available on discount quite often though. I think I got mine for Rs 139.

Shelf life: 3 years

My Take on the Avon Advanced Techniques Straight and Sleek Conditioner:

The conditioner comes in a sleek grey opaque plastic packaging with a flip-open cap, the mouth facing downwards which would make life easier when it starts to finish. The consistency of the conditioner is a bit thick, just like other conditioners and there is nothing particularly distinctive about the fragrance either, though it is quite pleasant.

What makes this different is that the this conditioner does everything it claims to do – it makes the hair smooth and shiny, it minimizes split ends and frizz and above all – it makes your hair look straighter. Sure, your hair won’t look like it has been straightened or rebounded, but it does look considerably less wavy.

My recommendation is that you should use this conditioner according to what your hair type is and the result you would like to see. If you have relatively straight hair already, then you have two options: either apply the conditioner to just the ends of your hair (the tips) to smooth them out and minimize appearance of split ends. Or, you can apply it on the entire length of your hair to get that ‘straight and sleek’ look. I have straight hair naturally and when I apply this on practically the whole length of my hair, my hair looks a lot straighter – which is great for those sophisticated, sleek looks that you require for some outfits.

If you have frizzy hair, then too this is a great option because it tames frizz to quite an extent. In this case, you should definitely use it on at least the lower half length of your hair if not the entire length or wherever your hair tends to get frizzy like the ends of layers if you have a step/layered haircut. As with any other conditioner, try to not let this get on the roots because conditioners tend to weigh down your hair a bit and reduce volume.

What I like about this Conditioner?

Very reasonably priced for the quantity provided
Lives up to its claims
Convenient packaging
Does not take extraordinary effort to rinse off completely
Leaves hair soft, smooth and shiny
Reduces frizz
Pleasant fragrance

What I don’t like about this Conditioner?

Well if I have to be really picky I’d say that I wish it wasn’t available only through agents 🙁

MABH Rating: 5/5

Final word:

This is a great conditioner and it lives up to its claims. Moreover, for the price it is quite a steal as it’ll last you quite a while. I think girls with slightly frizzy hair especially will love this. It is definitely worth a try.

Will I Repurchase?: Absolutely!
