Himalaya Herbals Men: Power Glow Licorice Face Wash Review

Hi Everyone, 

Its been a long we have talked about a Men's product. Although Men are still deprived of the special targeted skin care and grooming product as compared to women but certain companies have started with basic skin care and shaving essentials. 

So we are today reviewing one of the skin care/bath product from +Himalaya Store . Himalaya Herbals is also one of the companies which has come up with their face wash range for Men. It is Himalaya Herbals Men: Power Glow Licorice Face Wash for visibly fairer and brighter skin. You can buy this from Amazon here.

Price- 140 INR for 100gms. Easily available on retail counters and online stores.

Here again a review I am sharing, my hubby's experience as user. Last review of Himalaya Herbals Intense oil clear Lemon face wash, which he reviewed & wrote.

Himalaya Herbals Men: Power Glow Licorice Face Wash has been specially designed for men's skin. it is powered with white spice Active Boost Technology that helps in the action of herbal actives. Fortified with Licorice extract- Natural Skin Lightening and Antioxidant agent. Wood Apple- Natural Exfoliating Agent. Menthol- Natural Coolant. 

Luster Dark Secrets...Is it a Dupe of Lush Dark Angels???

Hi Everyone,

Usual skincare routine says- Cleansing, Toning and Moisturising while a weekly routine involves - Scrubbing. 

I have pretty oily, acne prone skin (usually whiteheads) so scrubbing is one of the safe ways to get rid of extra deposits on my skin. And online shopping has given me far more options to explore varieties of scrubbing products. 

Today its a charcoal scrub from an Indian brand, Luster Skin Care- handmade beauty products. it is Luster Dark Secrets. 

Price- 290 INR for 100 gms. Available online. buy here at Amazon.

Reason why I bought this- it caught my attention as the packaging and labelling resembled a lot to Lush Dark Angels. And this gave a thought to try this even if it is dupe.

Himalaya Herbals Almond and Cucumber Peel- Off Mask...Review

Hi Girls, 

We all would always agree that its not possible to wear make-up everyday or for all occasions (atleast for me). Most of the time, its just a moisturizer and a khol which i am wearing. I like wearing my skin.. But again a flawless skin is a must whether you wear make-up or not. So Skincare is always the top most priority.

For a working mother, you are always on our toes. You need to look good but in seconds. I tend to incline for ready solutions. One of that pre & post party solution is Himalaya Herbals Almond and Cucumber Peel-off Mask.

Vitamin e- De-pigmentation cream from Fabindia Review

Hi All, 

Looking yourself in the mirror, what is the first thought which comes into your mind?
1. Oh God, im ageing (my open pores, pigmentation, those fine lines) Im still not that Old.
2. Muaaah, you are so pretty, not fair!!!
3. i wish, i could have a rhinoplasty :-P
4. lastly, its all nonsense, I need a new mirror.

Whatever, most of us have this tendency to gaze at mirror, i had this habit of sitting in front of mirror for hours. Infact my aunt had a mirror just opposite to the sitting area in her room and i always used to sit and watch my self for hours. Even if i am in mid of a conversation, i kept peeping into mirror. 

Since last few days my mirror has been very rude to me....probably telling something which i never heard in my teens. but that's the story with all of us. isn't it?

you all might be thinking what am i up to...just a beauty banter.

Ok my post was about Fabindia Vitamin E De-pigmentation cream from +Fabindia 

Defying Age with Ponds Age Miracle Range - Day and Night Cream

Aging has been a matter of concern since ages, not only for women but for men too.

Since past one year i have had frequent skin problems, and noticed few undesired changes like change in skin texture, few fine lines, little pigmentation etc

Later when i started searching for remedies and reasons behind, found that AGE is one of the biggest factor. Till last year my skin regime involved only moisturiser and lip balms and visit to parlors was only for Wax or clean ups, done. So no Regime at all…..

I was on look out for a quick and effective remedy apart from time consuming packs and treatments; which is good for ready-to-use and Go..

Started my Anti Ageing routine with PONDS..one of highly recommended or can say popular brands. Surfing through their site let me study the concept behind anti ageing products and the purpose behind a specific product too like Night Creams for repair and rejuvenation during night, Day cream to protect and nurture, serums as a catalyst etc.

This time i am reviewing two of the creams from AGE MIRACLE range from #PondsIndia, +Unilever 

What is the product all about -

1. Ponds Age Miracle Cell Regen Day Cream spf 15 PA ++ (Jar)

2. Ponds Age Miracle Cell Regen Deep Action Night Cream (Jar)
