1m Intimate Cream Wash pH 3.5 by Ozone Ayurvedics Review

Hello ladies,
Today's post is dedicated to all the lovely ladies who read my blog because the product I am going to tell you about is for intimate hygiene. Before I started my blog 5 years back I had no clue what intimate washes were. I mean like saboon se hi dho dete..Lol ! What I meant to say is that we used soap to clean our private part and here I refer to the vagina. So over the years many brands have been stressing the importance of using Intimate washes to clean your vaginal area as it is made with ingredients safe for the most important part of a woman's body. As some of you may know that soaps do contain chemicals and may not be safe to use there and hence it is only necessary to use an intimate wash which helps to maintain the pH balance and also solves other issues related to vaginal infections etc. So today I am going to share my thoughts on 1m Intimate Cream Wash pH 3.5  by Ozone Ayurvedics which kind of stands apart from the other ones I have tried. Keep on reading to know my thoughts on it.





Price: Rs.138/-  for 100g product  You can buy it online HERE


Ingredients & Other information:





Key features/claims by the brand about the product:
To maintain the natural balance of the intimate area, you need a cleanser that has an ideal pH of 3.5*.

1m Intimate Cream Wash is enriched with Lactic Acid, Sea Buckthorn Oil and Tea Tree Oil to maintain the intimate area's natural acidic balance.

Reduces dryness, itchiness, soreness, burning, unpleasant odour and symptoms of private part discharge

It also restores the beneficial bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus naturally found in the intimate area and significantly lowers your risk of private part infections


Packaging:
It comes in a white opaque tube with a flip cap which is amazing. There is no  product accumulation at the tube opening which I like. The ingredients and all the possible information you need to know about the product is printed at the back of the tube. It is definitely travel friendly in my opinion.




Coming to my experience trying the product - I have never tried a product like this before. It is thick like a cream and will not foam like the gel based ones but creates a little lather good enough to get the cleaning job done. As per their instruction you can apply it and leave it on the vaginal area or use it during your bath and wet the area apply it leave on 2 minutes and rinse it off which I do. After rinsing the product, it  comes off easily which I like. The smell is perfumey but amazing and the scent reminds of me of a luxury product I may have used in the past. One may argue about the scent but then how will it take the odour off from that area?? Makes sense right.





So vaginal discharge is a common problem for me and many other women I know. While some of it is normal, excessive can always be associated with any hormonal problem you may have and it is best to visit a gynecologist. So this wash does a good job of cleansing the area but does not make it dry even though I saw the ingredients has Cetosteryl Alcohol. But I have used it and I found no issue at all. I have been loving this wash and do recommend it to all my ladies fam who are reading my post. I do not blog about anything without testing and I can safely say that this product is worth using and a big thumbs up from me. And yes it is Cruelty free and vegan too so do try it ladies.

So what do you ladies think of this intimate wash and have you tried it yet?? Do let me know in the comments section.

Organic Harvest 3-in-1 Face Wash Review

Hello everyone,
I hope you all are doing well. If you are from India you may have definitely heard about the skincare brand ORGANIC HARVEST whose products I have already featured before on the blog you may check those reviews as well. They have a variety of skincare, body care, hair care and lip balms in their collection. In today's skincare scenario everyone looks for cruelty free and products devoid of chemicals and parabens. Well my answer to your problem is Organic Harvest. So I did  get a chance to try out the Organic Harvest 3-in-1 Face Wash and I am going to tell you my experience trying it.. Read on to know more....



Organic Harvest 3-in-1 Face Wash Review

Price: Rs.215/- for 50 ml and Rs.395/- for 100 ml. Available online with discount  HERE

Key Ingredients:
Aqua, Pure Ribose, Scrubbing beads and Polyquaternium-79 in surfactant base.





Brand description about the product:
A Paraben free formula which cleanses, scrubs, and provides whitening to your skin. The active used in this face wash is pure Ribose, a natural pentose obtained by biotechnology from corn seed sugars. It restores energy to the skin. It has irregular shaped granules, soft enough to prevent the skin from scratches.

The product is free of:
 Parabens
 Mineral Oil 
 Animal Ingredients.

Packaging:
The product comes in a dark green opaque tube with the brand name, claims and all other necessary information printed on it. I love when tubes are transparent though you can tell how much product is left but that is just my opinion. Overall the packaging does not look cheap, it has a flip cap and I did not find any problem of spillage and strangely product accumulating on the cap.


Organic Harvest 3-in-1 Face Wash Review

If you know me then you would know that I keep experimenting with face washes which are on the affordable end and this one is a bit more pricey, well obviously because they contain organic ingredients and is free of chemicals but seeing the whole list of ingredients would have made me happier as you know I am a blogger and always curious to know what is in the product I use.


Organic Harvest 3-in-1 Face Wash Review

Coming to the face wash it is has a nice sea blue color with green granules and is thick like a paste which I like as I am not a fan of runny face washes. The smell reminds of me of a bathing soap I used in my childhood and makes me feel nostalgic. It contains granules rather than beads which most brands put in their face washes and some studies say they are not great for the skin. So these granules are not harsh on the skin and help in gently exfoliating the skin. It lathers well and does a great job of cleansing all dirt & oil from the skin.I did not notice my skin getting dry post use but using a moisturizer is always recommended. This face wash will be ideal for all those who work at a full time job as being outside makes the skin dull and dirty easily. Also someone who has tanning issues this can help them as well as it brightens the skin after repeated uses. Can't say about whitening but yes it does a great job of cleansing and gentle exfoliation. I highly recommend this to those with oily, greasy and dull skin.

MLWM Rating: 4.5/5

Organic Harvest 3-in-1 Face Wash does a great job of cleansing and gently exfoliating the face with the granules it contains. It keeps the skin dirt & oil free and fresh looking. Have you tried this face wash or intend to?? Please let me know in the comments section ☺☺

Iraa Instaradiance Hydrating Face Mist with White Tea & Jasmine Review

Hey everyone,
I am sure if you regularly read my blog you will know about the brand Iraa and their products about whom I have talked about here on my blog. Continuing with the series of reviews I shall be reviewing  the Iraa Instaradiance Hydrating Face Mist with  White Tea &  Jasmine which is meant for all skin types. So I have been trying and testing it for  a month and will share my thoughts on it in this post. Please keep on reading to know more.....


Iraa Instaradiance Hydrating Face Mist with  White Tea &  Jasmine  Review

Price:  Rs.145/- for 100 ml. Available online HERE
Shelf life: 2 years

Ingredients & other information about the product:




Description by the brand:
Soothe and hydrate your skin with this pleasantly aromatic mist that is packed with anti-oxidants. Hydrating Face Mist helps to revitalise and tone your skin; all you need is a spritz or two of this luxuriating spray. This face spritz contains natural extract of white tea and jasmine that repair, restore, replenish and protect the skin.

Packaging:
The face mist comes in a transparent spritz bottle with a sticker at the front and back mentioning ingredients and other information you need to know about the product. The product is user and travel friendly. You can carry it in your office bag and spritz it on your face when necessary and required.


Iraa Instaradiance Hydrating Face Mist with  White Tea &  Jasmine  Review

Coming to the product the color of the mist is lavender purple in the bottle from what I see but comes across as clear when used and does not transfer on the face. It contains White tea which acts as an Antioxidant, moisturizes, is anti-ageing & anti-inflammatory and Jasmine which is Moisturizing, nourishing and has a natural aroma. 

Iraa Instaradiance Hydrating Face Mist with  White Tea &  Jasmine  Review

The product is dermatologically approved and clinically tested which is a big thumbs up. I could not spot any fishy ingredients in this one and all are safe to use on the skin. It contains glycerin which acts as a moisturizer for the skin. If you have oily skin it will make your skin sticky hence this product is best suited for someone who has normal to dry skin in my opinion unlike meant for all skin types as the brand has claimed.The jasmine fragrance is nice and makes you feel calm and fresh on use but if you don't like this fragrance stay away from it. This product is perfect as a makeup fixer/setting spray as the glycerin keeps the makeup in place and makes the face look less powdery and cakey. Since I have combination to oily skin I have been using it as a setting spray and have been loving it.

In conclusion I would like to say that Iraa Instaradiance Hydrating Face Mist with  White Tea &  Jasmine is best suited for those with normal to dry skin and in general for anyone who wants to use it as a makeup fixing spray. With all natural ingredients this seems amazing to try and I highly recommend.

MLWM Rating:4.2/5

I hope this review was useful and informative to all those reading. Comment below with your thoughts and do let me know if you have tried this product or intend to ☺

Blue Heaven Diamond Blush on (502 &505) Review & Swatches

Hey everyone,
I am posting after a long time I know but I was very sick. I have mentioned about the same on my YouTube channel, if you have not checked that video you can check it HERE. It has been raining crazily in Mumbai with floods in many parts but thankfully where we live everything is ok and now back to normal. I feel the media only sensationalizes certain happenings but the reality is something different, What do you say?? Let me know in the comments section.Anyway today  I am going to review the Blue Heaven Diamond Blushes which are very popular on YouTube and in the blogosphere. Hence I purchased 2 shades of my own money and would like to review them for all of you. Please keep on reading to know my thoughts...


Blue Heaven Diamond Blush on (502 &505) Review & Swatches

Price: Rs.125/- Buy  502 here and 505 here


Ingredients & Brand Description:



BLUE HEAVEN DIAMOND BLUSH ON has a soft cream whipped formula that is long lasting and blend very smoothly with your skin.It feels virtually weightless and glides on quickly and easily giving a natural look to your face.

Soft creamy formula that is long lasting and highly spreadable and velvety feel. Apply with the applicator and feel the magic of smooth glide.

Packaging:
The blush comes in a cardboard packaging and the color is visible from the front. The blush comes in a round pan with a transparent lid. There is no mirror but you get a small puff for application which I find useless to be honest. The packaging needs improvement big time considering all these unknown brands in the market offer better packaging now a days. It is not travel friendly but can be carried around in my opinion.

Blush no 502:
If you check pictures online they never help in deciding the color and that is why reviews by bloggers and Youtubers come handy. So when I was watching a video I fell in love with this shade and ordered it in no time. When I used to view it online I thought it wasn't what I was looking for but I got it and I love it. 502 is a beautiful rosy brown color which flatter all skin types and add a lovely flush of color to the face. It has shimmer which is not over the top I feel. It can also be used for contouring. I truly fell in love with this one.It can also be used to apply as eye shadow.

Blush no 505:
It  is a beautiful golden bronze color which looks amazing as a bronzer cum blush for someone who has a skin tone like me. For deeper skin tones this can work as a highlighter. I have used this blush as an eye shadow as well and it has worked well for me.The pigmentation is really good for the price. The smell is quite strong but will vanish on application of the product. The color is stunning and has lasted on my face all day.This shade is one of their best sellers and I can tell why.

These blushes are value for money and can be used for multiple purposes hence I highly recommend them. Both of them have shimmer which adds a glow to the face. If you have textured skin or skin with pores then it may accentuate it hence apply wisely as shimmers would enhance it further.Blue Heaven blushes are good considering the price point and is ideal for someone who is new into makeup or even otherwise.Go grab it if you haven't yet, If you have tried this blush do let me know your thoughts in the comments section.

Himalaya Herbals Anti Hair Fall Range Review & My Experience

Hi everyone,
If you have been following my blog since last 5 years, you would know that I do not experiment a lot with my hair. I have had hair fall problem since my teenage years and now more so because of a medical problem I have. Hair loss is a constant worry and that is the reason why I am very particular about the products I use on my hair and scalp and I do not experiment much with my hair. I generally use shampoos which are made of natural ingredients, inexpensive and are easily available in the market. While there are so many brands and innumerable hair care brands in the market I am always go back to my trusted favorite brand - Himalaya Herbals.Their Anti Hair fall range consists of 4 products with all natural ingredients and in this post I am going to tell you more about the products and how to use them...


Himalaya Herbals Anti Hair Fall Range Review & My Experience

The Anti Hair Range consists of 4 products and steps to beautiful,soft and shiny hair and they are as follows:
Step one is OILING: Part your hair and apply Himalaya’s Anti-Hair Fall Hair Oil on the scalp. Massage the scalp gently in a circular motion using your fingertips so that the oil is absorbed into the scalp. Soak a towel in hot water and wrap your hair with it for 30 minutes before washing.

Himalaya Herbals Anti Hair Fall Range Review & My Experience

The hair oil is lightweight, non sticky and  is enriched with the goodness of Bhringaraja and Amalaki. This helps in  strengthening  the root shafts and preventing hair fall. It has a lovely faint scent and works well into the hair.

Step two is SHAMPOO:Gently massage Himalaya’s Anti-Hair Fall shampoo into wet hair and scalp. Leave for two to three minutes, and rinse thoroughly. Repeat if necessary. The product is effective for all hair types and is safe to use on artificially colored or permed hair.

Himalaya Herbals Anti Hair Fall Range Review & My Experience

The shampoo is white in color and has an amazing fragrance. It lathers into the scalp nicely  and cleanses it well leaving no residue.It includes an ayurvedic composition of Bhringaraja and Butea Frondosa that helps reduce hair fall due to breakage, and conditions and improves hair texture. Please shampoo the hair twice if you have generously applied oil on the scalp or the scalp will not be free of the oil residue.

Step three is  CONDITION - After shampooing, gently apply Himalaya’s Anti-Hair Fall Conditioner along the length of hair from base to tip. Leave for two minutes or even more if you have time and rinse thoroughly after. The product is suitable for all hair types and is safe to use on artificially colored or permed hair.

Himalaya Herbals Anti Hair Fall Range Review & My Experience

The conditioner is formulated with Butea Frondosa, Bhringaraja and Chickpea that nourishes hair and helps prevent excess hair fall, leaving your hair soft, silky and smooth. Use it on your hair and not on your scalp. I would say if you have time wrap it in a bun and leave it for 15 - 30 minutes using a shower cap it works wonders trust me. After done do wash your hair thoroughly to avoid any residue.

Step four is PROTECT - After conditioning, take a small amount of Himalaya’s Anti-Hair Fall cream and gently run it through your hair strands, while it’s damp. Use it regularly after conditioning to maintain healthy hair. The product is suitable for all hair types and is safe to use on artificially colored or permed hair.

Himalaya Herbals Anti Hair Fall Range Review & My Experience

Himalaya Herbals Anti Hair Fall Range Review & My Experience

The herb-based Himalaya Anti-Hair Fall Cream is a daily-use formula including Bhringaraja and Amalaki for reducing hair fall and strengthening hair follicles.It is best to use it  every time you wash your hair.The fragrance is amazing and will linger in your hair for a day or two. So if you have a smelly scalp or hair this would work best for you.

My hair after using the Himalaya Herbals Anti Hair Fall Range

My experience:
To be honest I never follow a regime like that for my hair as I am busy, I mean you know a full time bloggers life right?? But then now I realize that this really bought life to my dull and lifeless hair. Since last 2 months I have lost a lot of hair due to a medical problem for which I have been taking medicines but this range has also helped me in hair loss to some extent  and I intend to use it and repurchase it because I am all for natural products whether it is for hair or skin. 

My hair feels lighter,healthier and full of volume as you can tell in the picture above using the products.#4FabulousHair this is the range of products I highly recommend and you can easily buy them from any beauty shops, chemists or even online.

I hope you guys found this post informative and useful. Please comment below and let me know your thoughts.Have you tried any product/product from this Anti hair fall range before????

Until next time.. Take care xoxo




P.S: The product was sent to me for consideration but that does not affect my opinion about the product. My post is based on my experience trying the product myself**

Svayam Natural Orange Peel Pack Review

Hi everyone,
Today I shall be reviewing a face pack which I have enjoyed in the month of summers here in India.The heat is unbearable and although we have some respite from the on and off rainy weather we are still to witness monsoons. The major problem for us Indians is that we get tanned and our skin looks dull and lifeless.While there are many face packs available in the market I generally prefer those which are 100% natural and free of chemicals and parabens. Please read on to know my experience trying the Svayam Natural Orange Peel Pack

Svayam Natural Orange Peel Pack Review

Ingredients: 
Orange Peel,Sandalwood Powder, Haldi

Price: Rs.375/- for 100 gm product. You can buy it online with Free Shipping  HERE


Svayam Natural Orange Peel Pack Review

Claims/Benefits:
Skin Polishing & Brightening | Anti - Tan

How to use:
For oily skin, add curd. For dry skin, add milk. For normal skin, add rosewater. Make a creamy paste and apply to face and neck. Leave on for 5-10 minutes and rinse well.

Packaging:
The face pack comes in a cute jar which reminds me of my childhood. The jar is made of glass and it has a tin cap. The product is easily visible from the outside. Basic information about the product is mentioned on the jar itself. In case of travel you may need to pack it in a separate container.

Svayam Natural Orange Peel Pack Review


The face pack is mustard yellow in color and gritty in texture. Because I have normal skin for now I used it with rose water.You must never forget the neck as it tends to be darker than the face. The pack smells like orange for obvious reasons and is very refreshing. Once it dries I wash it off and pat dry my face. The skin is instantly brightened and looks fresh so polished and brightened skin hell yes! Well about tanning I am not sure as I am not tanned at the moment but I know that orange peel powder helps in reducing tan so a big thumbs up for that and I am sure it will work in resolving that.In my opinion this face pack will work best for all skin types especially during as the skin tends to get dull,tired and tanned. I highly recommend you to check this product out.

MLWM Rating:4.5/5

Svayam Natural Orange Peel Pack Review works best for all skin types and makes the skin look refreshed and polished with regular use. With no parabens and no chemicals or artificial ingredients this one is surely a winner in my opinion.

Read my other product reviews from the same brand HERE

Seer Secrets Bergamot & Raw Sandhal Energizing Yogurt Body Cleanser Review

Hey everyone,
Today I shall be talking about a new brand on my blog who essentially are new in the market and make bath and body products called 'Seer Secrets'. They launched their body cleanser recently and I got a chance to try some of them. So I had been trying the Seer Secrets Bergamot & Raw Sandhal Energizing Yogurt Body Cleanser in the past few days and now I am here to share my thoughts on it. If you wish to know more about this product then please keep on reading....

Seer Secrets Bergamot & Raw Sandhal Energizing Yogurt Body Cleanser

The body cleanser is yoghurt (dahi) based and very gentle on the skin. The cleanser is shiny white in color with no artificial color or fragrances. Bergamot has citrus like properties and reminds me of lemon which is one of the major ingredient due to which the body cleanser makes you feel fresh and energized. It also contains Sandhal (Sandalwood) which adds a lovely earthy scent to it making you feel calm and relaxed.


Seer Secrets Bergamot & Raw Sandhal Energizing Yogurt Body Cleanser


When I use this cleanser 2 generous pumps are good enough for the whole body. It lathers well but for best use you would have to use a loofah. What I liked is the unique combination of Bergamot and Sandalwood which are 2 contrasting fragrances but come together well and make you energized and refreshed post shower. It does a good job of cleansing the skin and leaves no residue behind however the smell is not long lasting and won't linger for more than an hour. Personally  I like strong scented body washes and this is mild to my liking however the product is of amazing quality and those who like their products mildly scented would love this one and should go for it. They have an amazing range of body cleansers in 6 different variants, you could check them out HERE

MLWM Rating:4.2/5

So guys what do you think of this all natural body cleanser and this brand in general ?? Have you tried it or intend to?? Please let me know in the comments section.

Until next time.. Take care xoxo
