Garnier Skin Naturals Micellar Cleansing Water


                    Who doesn’t love wearing makeup? I am very fond of makeup hence I tend to wear so many products on my face for occasion if not at least a basic eye makeup and lipstick on my daily wear. But the biggest task is removing the makeup. I always use baby oil to remove my makeup. After hearing so many reviews I bought my first miscellar water. So here is my experience on Garnier Miscellar water.
Garnier Miscellar Water


What the product claims:
                         The all-in-1 cleanser removes make up and impurities in just one swipe. It has no added parabens and alcohol. Like a magnet, the cleansing agents capture and lift away dirt from the skin. It is gentle on the skin.
Where can u buy: Online and stores
Price: It comes in 2 different sizes
  1. 175 for 125 ml
  2. 349 for 400 ml

How to use:
                          Use cotton or cotton pad to gently wipe all over your face, neck and eyes.
My experience with Miscellar water:
Garnier miscellar water comes in a transparent bottle with a pink flip open top cap.
The miscellar water is a colorless liquid and there is no oiliness when you apply on your skin. The texture is very similar to water, it is light and runny. It removes every traces of the dirt gently. When you have to remove daily dirt one wipe is enough for the face and neck. For heavy makeup the dirt won’t go on single swipes. You have to use two or three cotton pads to remove the dirt completely. You can totally use this instead of face wash because miscellar water just remove the impurities and the top of it you can use a toner. 
Ways to use Miscellar water: 
                Sleeping in a Makeup is big no to our skin. This will lead to clogged pores and tend to break out. Even when you’re exhausted keep the miscellar water near and you can remove your makeup. If you’re traveling and you don’t find water to clean your face miscellar water will definitely help you. If you’re rushing miscellar water will help in your skin care routine. This will make your skin care routine simple.

Pros:
·         Suitable for all skin types .
·         Travel friendly. 
·         Dint break out my skin.
Cons:
·         Need to use more water when it comes to heavy makeup. 

Final Review: 
         I am quite happy with the product and I would definitely recommend it.

Score: 4.7/5

  •  It acts as a good moisturizer.
  •   It has anti-aging properties.
  •   Removes sun tan.
  •   Soothes sun burn.
  •  Fades blemish and pigmentation.
  • Reduces dark circle.

You can use this scrub twice a week.

Benefits:

“Its therapeutic and The mineral content of a Himalayan pink salt can help maintain the protective barrier of the skin, while allowing it to hold in hydration – as is evidenced by the fact that your skin won’t wrinkle or prune after a salty dip.

My take on this product:
            This is my first purchase from VILVAH store. What is lovely about the product is smell and its free for parabens and sulphates.Its 100% natural. I loved the smell of it. It has a citrus odor. The body polish come in a glass tub.  It has a separate cover which protects from spilling the product. The body polish comes in peach colour and the texture is a grainy paste (which contains pink salt) with it.

The scrubbing particles are not harsh on the skin. It washes off easily with water without leaving any residue behind. The scrub has perfect consistency with a scrub, body wash and lotion in jar which makes the skin soft and supple. The scrub removes the dead cell from the body. This removes the tan from our body when we use it consistently. The best part is the skin felt good and moisturised that we need not use lotion to our body. It doesn’t make our skin dry at all. It’s a fab product and it gives instant results making my skin tan free and silky smooth.

Biotique Bio Fruit Whitening, Depigmentation & Tan Removal Face Pack

                 Herbal products have become one of my favorites in my skin care routine. So just got hands on the BIOTIQUE BIO FRUIT face pack which is herbal product. So, let me start my review on this product.




Availability: Online and Stores

Price: 199 for 75gm

Shelf life: 3yrs from the manufacturing date.

Ingredients:
                   Multani mitti (Fuller's earth), Gem (Garric), Yasad bhasma (Yashad bhasma), Tamator (Lycopersicum esculentum), Ananas (Ananas comosus), Kikargaund (Acacia Arabica), Paste base Q.S.





















Product Highlights:

             The product come in two size.On is with the plastic tub and the other is in a tube where you can squeeze the pack. It comes with a plastic white and green tub. It has a separate lid which protects from spilling.. The new pack comes in a tube form with a flip. The face pack is in light pink color which has a creamy consistency which is very easy to apply on your face. It is light weight and it has good Ayurveda smell.



How to use:

       Cleanse your face and then apply it evenly on your wet face and neck and leave it for 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse with water and dab it dry. It can be used daily or whenever your skin looks dull and dry. 




My experience:

            I have been using this product for years. The packaging has now changed but the product remains the same. I really love the colour of the face pack. It is pink in colour because of the fruit. I always apply face packs on the night because in the morning it feels fresh. I really loved the smell of the product. The pack also spreads really well.
While applying it on your face at first it gives a little burning sensation because of the natural ingredients but that gets settled in a minute. Leave it for 15 minutes or until the products dries on my face. It doesn’t dry your face after you wash your face. The skin will feel moisturised. It won’t make your skin fairer but brightens your skin after washing your face.
 But one thing which disappoints me about this product is it doesn’t last long. It just gives the instant brightens. Yes, it reduces pigmentation from you face after 4 to 5 applications. After using this product, I dint have any breakout. It does make me feel better about my skin.

PS: For sensitive skin take a small quantity in a bowl, add rose water and then apply.

Pros:
·         Love the smell and easy to apply
·         Does brighten your skin
·         Makes your skin soft and smooth
·         Budget friendly
·         Removes tanning.

Cons:
·         The effect does not last long and gives a burning sensation.

 Overall view: 
                         If you’re looking for a pocket friendly face pack, I would absolutely recommend this product.

Note:  This is my personal review, So the result of the product must be different on another people.
