clean armpits September 02, 2019

A lot of faces the problem of dark underarms and we don't like it too. Do you? Naah! Nobody likes it. Because it looks dark, patchy and pigmented. Add the climate factor to all this and your're left with body odor well to deal with.

With little home care and some right products you can easily get clean underarms.So I'm sharing some tips with you to take care of your underarms. Make sure you follow this tips regularly.

Tips to get clean Underarms :

Get rid of your underarms hair.
Exfoliate your underarms.
Apply mask to even out your skin tone ( to remove darkness or pigmentation).
Moisturize your underarm.
Use high quality Roll On or Deodorant.

(1) Get rid of your underarms hair :

You can use Razor, Wax or Hair Removal cream on your armpits to get rid of underarms hair.I suggest you to use wax because it removes hairs from the roots. And at least for 2-3 weeks you're tension free.

(2) Exfoliate your underarms :

If you uses razor to shave your underarms on regular basis, then definitely you have to face the problem of dark and pigmented underarms.So you must have to use an exfoliator at least twice a week. For this you will need 2 tsp of Coffee Powder, 2 tsp of Sugar and some Coconut/Olive Oil to make an exfoliator. Apply in your underarms and gently scrub it for 5 minutes. This scrub will remove the dead skin cells, which will even tone your skin.

(3) Apply Mask :

Mask also helps in even tone your skin. You can take 2 tsp of Fuller's Earth (Multani Mitti) with some rose water to make a paste.

2 tsp of Fuller's Earth, 1 tsp of Orange Peel Powder with some thick curd to make a paste.

Apply this mask on your underarms for 10-15 minutes and then rinse off. For a best result use this mask once a week.

(4) Moisturize your Underarms :

Sometimes after shaving skin feels irritated. So just take some Aloe Vera Gel to soothe your skin. Aloe Vera is a moisturizing agent it will immediately soothes the irritated skin.

(5) Use a good Roll On or Deodorant :

The most important thing is applying Roll On or Deodorant. Because it will keep you odor free..

But make sure that you use alcohol free deodorant. There are tons of alcohol free roll on and deodorant. Just choose the perfect one for you. I would suggest you to try Rexona Underarms Odour Protection Roll On .

Another important thing is try to wear linen or cotton clothes in summer. Because these fabrics weak away the moisture and helps to keep your skin dry in a good way.

Follow these simple steps to stay sweat free and restore the bacterial balance of your underarms.

My Experience with the Biotique Bio Fruit Whitening, De-pigmentation and Tan Removal Face Pack:

I love pampering myself with face packs, they instantly change the appearance of my skin. I prefer to use face masks at least twice a week. While DIY masks are my top picks, but I frequently end up applying ready made face packs because they are very convenient to use. Once such face mask that I am using these days is the Biotique Bio Fruit Whitening, Depigmentation and Tan Removal Face Pack.

This face pack comes in a white tub with a green screw cap. The face pack is pinkish in color and looks like a fruity paste. Its consistency is really good neither too thick nor too thin. This face pack glides easily on the skin and it is easy to spread. I sometimes experience a stinging sensation after applying it but it is only for a few minutes. It dries after 15-20 minutes and then I wash my face with water. Since I apply it after massaging my face with a cream, this pack doesn’t dry out my skin much. However, it will work only when a good skincare routine is followed. There are no miraculous results after one use but it will definitely helps in improving the skin texture when used consistently.

Since it is an ayurvedic product, it is free of harsh chemicals and preservatives. Another good thing about this product is that it is dermatologically tested for safety and has not been tested on animals. Biotique is offering good products at a great prices.

This face pack has a strong ayurvedic-fruity smell which disappears after it dries . The smell is not very pleasant but it doesn’t bother me at all.

Pros of Biotique Bio Fruit Whitening & De-pigmentation Face Pack :

Travel-friendly packaging
No artificial preservatives
Improves skin texture
Non-drying
Removes some tan
Affordable

Cons of Biotique Bio Fruit Whitening & De-pigmentation Face Pack :

Strong fragrance
A little stinging sensation after applying the pack

Verdict :

Biotique Bio Fruit Whitening, De-pigmentation, and Tan Removal Face Pack is a good product for improving the skin texture. You can use it twice a week. Do not expect any miraculous results in one application, its regular use combined with a good skincare routine will definitely improve the skin texture.

BIOTIQUE BIO CLOVE PURIFYING ANTI-BLEMISH FACE PACK FOR OILY & ACNE PRONE SKIN

Clove is a warm, spicy herb that has been used as an effective antibiotic, antiseptic, and antiviral agent for thousands of years.

This purifying Biotique Bio Clove Purifying Anti-Blemish Face Pack is mixed with pure cloves and wild turmeric to control pimples and acne, absorb excess oils and other embedded impurities that can cause acneic conditions. With regular use, the complexion looks clearer and smoother.

Ingredients :

Lavang (Syzygium aromaticum), Pudina (Mentha piperata), Gandhak (Sulphur), Kikar gond (Acacia Arabia), Yashad (yashad bhasma), Geru (Red ochre), Paste base Q.S.

How to Use :

Apply a thick layer on clean face and neck. Avoid eye and mouth areas. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes. Rinse with water or damp washcloth. Use it at least twice a week.

Right now, I am in a phase where I am trying out Biotique's products. I have been suffering from acne and resultant blemishes for the past few months and I have been trying all the tricks in the book to get rid of them. That’s when I saw this Biotique Bio Clove face pack I decided to pick it up since the label specifically says “anti-blemish” face pack.

My Experience with the Biotique Bio Clove Purifying Anti-Blemish Face Pack :

This Biotique Bio Clove Purifying Anti-Blemish Face Pack comes in the white tub with a green screw cap. The face pack looks slightly brown and muddy in colour. The pack smells strongly of cloves and the consistency is perfect neither too thick nor too thin. It is of appropriate consistency and spreads easily on the face, but the moment it is applied on the face, it stings, I think that’s because of the cloves in it. The stinging goes away when it dries. Face pack takes up to 20 to 25 minutes for completely dry. Then rinse it off with cold water.

I was curious to see its result on acne and blemishes. Though it does not immediately acts on pimples, it does soothe and cause the pimples to reduce in size, but fails to make them disappear completely. When used regularly over a week, I was indeed able to see reduced occurrence of zits and this face pack prevented new ones from appearing.

As far as its effects on blemishes is concerned, it does take time and the results do not show up overnight. It is indeed a very slow process and with regular use, I am sure it might help with clearing blemishes, but here I should say “with regular use only".

Pros of Biotique Bio Clove Purifying Anti-Blemish Face Pack :

Exclusively targeted at acne and blemishes
All natural ingredients
Reduce the appearance of acne
Affordable
It can be used for spot treatment

Cons of Biotique Bio Clove Purifying Anti-Blemish Face Pack:

Stings a little bit
Blemishes may take a very long time to clear up
Strong fragrance

Do I Recommend Biotique Bio Fruit Whitening, De-pigmentation and Tan Removal Face Pack and Biotique Bio Clove Purifying Anti-Blemish Face Pack ?

If you are someone who is looking for instant brightening, tan removal and acne treatment, then this is not the one which would work instantly, although, if you are looking for something which would give you some respite from pigmentation and acne, then you can try this, but do not expect wonders overnight, it does take a very long time to show its effects. But yeah it will definitely give you the result. So if you are someone who can patiently wait for at least a month then you can try it.

The best part about Biotique is that it is free from harmful chemicals. It is suitable for all skin types. I would suggest you to try its products, they works excellent.

Khadi Natural Aloe Vera Gels

khadi natural aloe vera August 09, 2019

KHADI NATURAL ALOE VERA, NEEM AND BASIL MASSAGE GEL

Aloe Vera, Neem And Basil Face Massage Gel makes skin look clean, suits all skin types and can be used as a moisturizer too.This massage gel has anti-inflammatory properties that reduce skin inflammation. Aloe Vera is used to effectively heal skin problems such as psoriasis, acne and eczema. Neem also clears acne, scars, pigmentation and blackheads. Basil deeply cleanses clogged pores and removes dirt and impurities.

Packaging :

The product comes in a see-through jar packaging. Once you open the top cover, you will find a thin silver foil that needs to be teared up in order to use the product. All the important details such as price, ingredient list, net weight and directions to use are clearly spelt out. Overall, the packaging is sturdy as well as travel friendly. However, some might find it unhygienic to dip the fingers in the jar, but I personally have never faced any issue.

Instruction of use :

Apply in a circular motion on the face and neck. Wipe off with a moist cotton pad. Rinse with water and pat dry.

Ingredients :

Purified Water, Aloe vera ext, Neem ext, Comfrey ext, Licorice ext, Ashwagandha ext, Basil ext, Aloe vera gel, Calendula ext, Camphor ext, Lodhra ext, Fenugreek ext, Tea tree oil, Base Q.S.

My Experience With The Product :

Khadi Natural Aloe Vera, Neem and Basil Facial Massage Gel is greenish in color and has a very smooth texture. It effortlessly spreads on the skin and gets absorbed quickly. The formula is lightweight and feels comfortable on the skin. However, if you apply excess product, then of course, it feels slightly sticky.

I have been using this Khadi Natural Aloe vera, Neem & Basil for more than a month now. It has a huge claim that it prevents pimples. And that is why I tried this. I stumbled upon this aloe vera gel on Amazon. I had finished using Good Vibes Aloe Vera gel and I was looking for a new Aloe vera gel . And that’s how I saw this while browsing. Though Khadi has other variants of aloe vera gels too, but being someone who has acne prone skin, I won’t lie that this one attracted me by its claims!

Though it claims to be a massaging gel, I have been using it to hydrate my skin. So I have been using this every day to moisturize my skin and I also use it in my DIYs. It does the job well at hydrating and nourishing the skin. So people who have dry and combination skin will love it!

Now let’s talk about its main claim of reducing pimples.

But it does nothing to pimple breakouts. So it does not prevent them either! May work in controlling normal-mild pimples. This could be a major turn off to people who are looking for an anti-acne product and think of trying this. But I still like it since it soothes my irritated, flaky skin and any redness. Overall, I wish it helped in controlling the breakouts at least. Nevertheless, I am still liking it to use on my skin as a moisturizer!

Pros of Khadi Natural Aloe Vera, Neem and Basil Massage Gel :

Sturdy and travel friendly packaging
Impressive ingredient list
Smooth, gel-texture
Easily gets absorbed into the skin
Feels comfortable and lightweight
Huge product quantity that goes a long way
Budget friendly
Easily available online as well as in Khadi stores

Cons of Khadi Natural Aloe Vera, Neem and Basil Massage Gel :

Some might find the tub packaging unhygienic
Applying too much product make the skin feel sticky
With use, the gel becomes just a tad bit thick in texture

KHADI NATURAL ROSE AND ALOE VERA MASSAGE GEL

Khadi Natural Rose & Alovera Facial Massage Gel is refreshing, relaxing, exfoliates skin with its amazing healing properties. It suites all skin types. The gel feels refreshing and massage with this product definitely brings a soothing feeling.The massage helps to cleanses the skin deeply and keep the skin hydrated throughout the day. Aloe Vera prevents the skin from forming acne and lightening of marks and rose extracts moisturizes the skin.

Packaging :

Khadi Rose Aloe Vera Massage Gel comes in a basic transparent tub. It has a screw cap and quality of the tub is sturdy. Packaging is pretty simple and tub packaging provides a scope of unhygienic condition. A spatula would have been a plus with this tube.

Instruction of use :

Apply in a circular motion on the face and neck. Wipe off with a moist cotton pad. Rinse with water and pat dry.

Ingredients :

Rose Extract, Geranium Oil, Ashwagandha Extract, Demineralized Water,E.D.T.A, Propyl Glycol, Gylcerine, Stabalized Aloevera Gel, Carbomer, Kathon Cg, Sodium Hydroxide, Xylitylglucoside, Anhydroxylitol, Xylitol, Aloevera Extract, Liquorice Extract, Fragrance, Color.

My Experience With the Product :

I have been using this product for 2 weeks now. The Aloe vera and Rose gel feels refreshing on my skin and I massage it on my skin and it gives an instant glow. But don't use it near the eye area as it can sting a little. I like the fact that the claim of relaxation is lived up to.

The cooling property of Khadi Rose Aloe Vera Massage Gel makes it ideal for summer skin care stash. It also works as a post waxing balm. However, it does not really work on tan or has any fairness claim to live up to. I really like the fact that this product is value for money. It fits well in budget and the quantity and quality of the gel is exceptional.It smells exactly like fresh gulkand. No smell of aloe vera as the rose takes up the entire smell. When you smell it from the tub the fragrance is very strong but when you actually take a small amount to be massaged on your skin then the smell becomes a little mild. It is reddish in colour but becomes almost transparent on the face. I massaged the gel for like 5 minutes and it got all absorbed nicely in the skin. I kept it for 25-30 minutes and washed off the face with cold water. You can also keep it overnight.

This product is not too runny and has a perfect gel consistency. It spreads evenly on my face and does not exactly feel light weight during first contact with my skin. However, it does not suffocate skin once blended well.

Pros of Khadi Rose Aloe Vera Massage Gel :

Good quantity given which will last long
A blend of two natural ingredients which are very good for the skin
Suitable for all the skin types
Gives an instant glow and also a natural glow after continuous use
Skin feels soft and supple
Did not dry the skin
Can also be left overnight without washing it
Lives up to the claim of a refreshing, calming soothing gel with healing properties.
Strong smell settles into subtle fragrance post application
Ideal for summer product list
Value for money
Easily available in stores and online as well

Cons of Khadi Rose Aloe Vera Massage Gel :

Hygiene issue due to tub packaging
The smell will be a bit overpowering for some people.
