Shopping from JoybyNature.com and my Mini organic haul!

Hi Girls, 

I am getting addicted to online shopping, not because its a trend but because of the ease of having access to so many national and international brands along with having a chance to grab them at an attractive offer too.

While looking for organic & herbal products and some essential oils, i came across joybynature.com.

Patanjali Neem & Tulsi....Gel Face wash- Review

Hi All, 

Past weeks were really hectic and was hardly left with time to post on the blog. Apart from job occupancies and daily chores at home, i got chance to research and take trials of essential oils. I am in love with these oils. They are super effective.

But today its not about any Essential oil, its another Ayurvedic product in line- Patanjali Neem & Tulsi Face wash. 

I am a fan of Patanjali Face washes, they are super effective for my oily skin. I have been using their previous creamy ones and still hoard them. This time when i saw several new launches in gel form, i picked my usual favourite, an antispetic one- with Neem & Tulsi.
