Nature’s Essence | Lanceek

by Arshita

Good day friends. I have combination oily skin, so I always apply aloe vera gel every time I wash face, especially in the summer months. Previously I have used aloevera gel from the brand Aloe Veda and also from Oriflame, this summer I thought of trying a different brand. And after searching a lot, I bought Nature’s Essence Aloevera Gel. So, today I will review this product for you.

Price : Rs.150 for 200 gm; Buy : Amazon.in

Claims of the Gel:

Aloe Vera is a world renowned plant for its cosmetic and medicinal miracle properties. Nature’s Essence Aloe Vera uses the goodness of this miracle plant from its natural sources along with modern manufacturing processes to offer you a treatment moisturizing gel ideal for softening the skin, protecting it from sun damage and acting as a guard and immunizing agent against skin ailments like dry skin, acne 7 itchy skin conditions. The gel is an ideal solution for gifting you soft, glowing and pampered skin.

Key Ingredients:

Aloe Vera extracts & Peppermint oil, Demineralized water. No detailed ingredients list provided!

Usage Directions:

Apply the gel after cleansing your face and massage the softly into the skin for softening & protecting it against environmental pollutions. Ideal to be used every day.

Shelf life:

36 months.

My Take on Nature’s Essence Aloe Vera Gel:

The gel comes in a round pot. The gel is a transparent, in not-too-thick consistency. It smells very pleasant, very mild. While applying, the gel might seem little bit less thick than other aloe vera gels, but it is very easy to spread on the skin. It is not at all greasy, very light gel. It also gives an instant glow to my face and looks very fresh.

It controls oil for a very good period of time. But, the times when applied a bit more than a pea size amount, after sometime, my face becomes somewhat sticky, not oily. The pot has huge amount, will survive my two summers. It keeps skin soft and balanced in moisture for a long time. The pot is sure good for travel purposes. Sometimes, when I am going out for long hours, I keep it in my bag with other necessary products.

I love aloevera gels, and I loved Aloe Veda one. But, after using Nature’s Essence Aloevera Gel, I think I will continue it. It sure has some cons like absence of ingredient list, but for my combination skin, it never broke me out and it never made my skin dry. Though after 4-5 hours it makes my T-zone oily, it also makes my skin glow and soft. So, overall, it is a decent product and worth giving a try.

Likes:

Very soothing mild smell.
Fairly large amount.

Dislikes:

No detailed ingredient list.

Does not control oil for long time.

MABH Rating: 4.5/5.

Would I Repurchase?:

Yes, sure.

Hello Girls!

This is my first post on MABH and I am very excited. Thank you so much Lancy for giving me this opportunity. Today I am going to review a facial kit. I had ordered this kit online. It was a Combo offer. I had got Nature’s essence Manicure Pedicure Kit as well which I will review later.

I just love facials. But who has got a time nowadays to go to beauty parlors due to hectic work schedule. Since it was very affordable I didn’t waste time and ordered it quickly. So here is my review.

Price and Quantity:

Rs.750 for 425 g

My Experience:

I quiet like the packaging which contains the kit. The product comes in orange tubs which contains all ingredients and directions. I found it little bit unhygienic because every time you have to scoop out the creams with your hand.

My experience with this facial kit was not so good. I liked the cleansing cream. It cleansed my skin very well. I have combination skin and it didn’t make my skin dry.

Cleansing Cream:

I mixed the scrub powder in rose water since I didn’t have the toner. As per the instructions, I started massaging it over my face in circular motion for 5 minutes. I washed it off after that. I didn’t find any great difference but my skin appeared little smoother.

Now the third step Anti Blemish cream. I massaged my face with this cream for 15 minutes. But it gets dry after 2 minutes. So I have to apply it 3 to 4 times for this massage. I didn’t find any difference after using this cream. I was very disappointed. But still I had to finish the last step.

Anti Blemish Cream:

It is a ready to use face pack. You don’t have to mix anything. I applied it on wet face and kept it for 15 minutes. There was a slight tingling sensation but it didn’t last for more than 5 minutes. I washed it off after 15 minutes. My skin felt little bit stretchy but there was a little bit glow on my face.

Face Pack:

This entire process took one and half hour for me and the effect lasted only for two days. I can say it is an average product.

PROS:

I liked the quantity. I have used this kit for 4 to 5 times and still half of the product is left
It didn’t break me out
It gives a little bit glow
My skin appeared very much smoother after the application
It has got a mild flowery fragrance
I even got a Magic De pigmentation oil free with this kit

CONS:

This facial kit made my skin little bit dry. I don’t think so it will suit dry skin.
The glow lasted for only 2 days.
The anti blemish cream didn’t work on my skin
I found this srub thing little bit messy. Every time you have to take out the scrub powder, mix it with the toner and then you have to use. They should have provided a ready to use scrub
Feels little bit unhygienic as every time you have to scoop out the product with your hand

Rating: 3/5

My Recommendation:

A big nooooooooooo from me. In fact I am trying to finish it as early as possible so that I can try the new one!
