Last week I got The Face Shop Experience Kit, which constituted a moisturising cream, two face masks and a CC Cushion. Starting from last weekend I started using the moisture cream, called White Seed BLANCLOUDING White Moisture Cream. This is a pure moisture cream with brightening effect. I could use it only for 4 days. Why? Read on. About The Face Shop White Seed BLANCLOUDING White Moisture Cream I was really impressed to read about the moisture cream on The Face Shop company website. This cream has an elastic texture which is achieved by following the natural process of formation of clouds. Now I do not understand what significance does this elastic…

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-touch Sunblock SPF 50+ & PA+++ : Review
Guest Review by Sreeparna Ganguly I have photosensitive skin since childhood. Whenever my skin is exposed to the sunlight for more than five minutes my skin gets reddened and starts to sting like hell. Later the burning sensation subsides but the skin darkens. Sunscreens with SPF 30 or more with minimum PA++ are my necessity rather than a cosmetic cure. Over the years I have had trial and error sessions with many sunscreens in which I have found that majority of the creams that provide sun-protection are somehow or other comedogenic in nature. I had to reject many of them in the past just because they broke my facial skin…

Himalaya Herbals Moisturising Aloe Vera Face Wash : Review
Himalaya Herbals is a very affordable and trusted brand. It is a house hold name. It has vast product variety. The products offered are herbal. Be it face, body or hair, for every skin/hair type/condition, Himalaya has great products to offer. Today I am going to review a moisturising face wash, Aloe Vera Face Wash. If you think, you can use little harsh cleanser during winter and follow up with a heavy duty, it’s your call, but I feel, tempering with skin’s natural moisture only hurts it further. Harsh cleansers can deter the pH level of skin calling for trouble. Skin looks dull and rough if it is ripped off…

Best OTC For Acne : Faceclin Gel For Acne – A Review
I thought I would grow out of acne. Sadly it didn’t happen. There are times when my skin gets no zit for many months, but then something would happen, and hormonal acne would attack my skin. I suffer from hormonal acne. It’s all due to the bad hormones that my body produces when it’s angry on me. Like other acne sufferers, I too have had my share of experience with acne ointments and face packs. No matter how costly it is, no matter how badly it smells or stings my skin, I use it just because, I hope it would kill the zit soon without leaving a scar behind, that’s…
