Rinse with water.For best results, use 3-4 times  week. My experience: 'America's No. 1 scrub brand', when I read it, I knew I would end up buying it out of curiosity, and so it happened.

There was nothing about the scrub except its quantity that impressed me. The granul...

Olay Regenerist Advanced Anti-Ageing Review

Hey guys, Since I'll be soon turning 30, I needed to include something anti-ageing into my skin care routine; so, I bought this. I have almost finished this bottle and here is my full review: Product claims : Penetrates into skin's surface + hydrates to help firmer, smoother and plumped skin Price: 1699 INR Qty: 50 ml Shelf life: 3 years Directions and Ingredients:   click on the image for zooming My Experience:  Although I don't have much wrinkles, but I do have some laughing lines and fine lines under the eye area. The representative at Health and Glow store recommended this product and I bought it. I love dewy products and it is one of them. It makes my skin feel very smooth after applying it. It has fine gold particles that add very subtle radiance to skin. Although I have combination skin that turns a little oily in summer, this serum never feels sticky nor does it make me sweat more. Sometimes I use it as a base to my BB cream bec...

DIOR Hydra life water BB SPF 30 review

Hey guys, I bought this Dior BB lotion at Sephora when I was in Delhi. So here is my quick review: MRP: 5000 INR Qty: 30 ml Shade : I was matched to the shade 020, and it looks absolutely fine on my skin. For reference: I am MAC NC 35-40 with yellow undertones. Texture: It's like a lotion with creamy consistency. Finish: After applying, it gives a nice dewy finish on the skin and moisturizes which is enough for oily or combination skin but dry skin beauties may need to moisturize the skin before using it. Coverage: Sheer to light medium My thoughts: I like it for adding luminosity to my skin when it feels dull. It has SPF 30 which is good. It looks natural on skin and has never given me any breakouts either. This BB also has good staying power (4-6 hrs) BUT, this water BB comes out easily if I wipe off my face. It is a sheer coverage and doesn't hide pigmentation etc. It's not even water or sweat resistant. It is a good option in winter, but in sum...

Kunkumadi Tailam - Arya Vaidya Sala - Kottakkal

Hey everybody! This time, I have brought Arya Vaidya Sala's KunKumadi Oil for review. Before I start the review, let me tell you something about KUMKUMADI OIL in general, for those who don't know. KumKumadi oil is one of the most popular oils in our Ayurveda, especially for skin treatments. Made from16 herbal ingredients, this oil has saffron as its main ingredient. The oil is considered one of the most reliable and effective ways to improve complexion (antioxidants present in saffron); lighten dark circles; reduce whiteheads, acne & blackheads (anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric) and keep skin wrinkle free and young. Thus, this miraculous Kumkumadi oil is beneficial in making skin young, glowing, radiant and flawless. There are many companies which prepare and or sell this oil. You might have heard of Kama Ayurveda's Miraculous Kumkumadi oil. But because Kama Ayurveda's oil is super expensive (somewhere around 1800 INR), I decide...
