This post is about the detailed review of  Eau Thermale Avene Cleanance EXPERT Lotion.

If you are a regular reader of my blog, then you would know that I have oily skin which occasionally suffers from cystic acne. If you too are suffering from cystic acne prone skin and looking for a hydrating, mattifying blemish treatment, then read on to know more about the Eau Thermale Avene Cleanance EXPERT Lotion. 

Texture and Ingredients of the product

The tube is made of soft plastic and is quite sturdy. Since it is not a glass bottle, hence no fear of breakage in case it is dropped. The cap is also quite secure. Thus no chances of leakage of liquid from the cap. The fine tip is also a plus point when it comes to easy and accurate dispensing of the product. The tube is also very travel friendly because of its petite size and secure cap.

Method and Duration of Use

The directions on the bottle say to apply it apply it morning and/or evening to the face. Avoid contact with eyes. I take pea sized amount on my finger tips, which is enough to cover my whole face. I avoid the eye contour area while applying it on my face.

I bought this clarifying lotion about 4 months ago. Ever since then, I have been using it every evening, sometimes I apply it in the mornings as well. 

My regime of application is as follows: First I cleanse my face (double cleanse in the evening, single cleanse with face wash in the morning), then I apply Eau Thermale Avene Cleanance EXPERT Lotion. Some times I would be a very skin care aficionado and apply another acne calming lotion Yves Rocher Sebo Pure Vegetal Clarifying Lotion (read the detailed review of yves rocher sebo vegetal lotion) before I apply any acne treatment if I'm breaking out etc. Followed by the sunscreen if it's day time or serum if it's night time.

What I love about Eau Thermale Avene Cleanance EXPERT Lotion

Eau Thermale Avene Cleanance EXPERT Lotion comes with a price tag of $26 (at the time of writing this post). For the quantity of the product, the price is completely worth it. Not just because the product works so great for me, but also because that’s a huge bottle when it comes to daily amount of usage.

You can easily order Eau Thermale Avene Cleanance EXPERT Lotion from Amazon

This post is about the detailed review of  YourGoodSkin Brightening Exfoliating Wash.

If you are a regular reader of my blog, then you would know that I have oily skin which occasionally suffers from cystic acne. If you too are suffering from cystic acne prone skin and looking for a soothing exfoliator which doesn't irritate your skin, then read on to know more about the YourGoodSkin Brightening Exfoliating Wash.

Texture and Ingredients of the product

Method and Duration of Use

The directions on the bottle say to dispense the product into your hands, add water and rub until a light leather forms. Massage into wet skin in circular motions, applying more or less pressure to affect the level of exfoliation. Rinse well with warm water after use. Use once daily and don't use too hot water as this can dry out your skin. It further warns to not use it if your skin is broken or irritated.

I follow the exact same method as it is advised on the bottle. I just dispense a pea sized amount on my finger tip, leather it up and massage my face in circular motions (anti-clock wise). After I rinse it with water, my skin feels smooth and clean, without any dry feeling to it.

I have been using it for over a month now. I don't use it daily (although it's safe to use it daily as suggested on the bottle), but I use it every alternate day, preferably at night time after I have double cleansed my face.

What I love about YourGoodSkin Brightening Exfoliating Wash

YourGoodSkin Brightening Exfoliating Wash comes with a price tag of $13 (at the time of writing this post). For the quantity of the product, the price is completely worth it. Not just because the product works so great for me, but also because that’s a huge bottle when it comes to daily amount of usage.

This post is all about Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Shampoo!

If you also have the problem of your hair looking dull and dry after every wash, then Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Shampoo could be your saviour! Read the detailed review to find out about the texture, ingredients, packaging of the product and my honest feedback of what I loved about Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Shampoo.

Texture and Ingredients of the product 

This shampoo is very light in color. Since it’s a gel type consistency, it has a slightly thick viscous type form. Like it’s not a runny liquid, which makes it easy to apply. It has a very mild fragrance which I find quite pleasant. 

The ingredients include Apricot Kernel oil and Castor oil, along with others.

Packaging and Quantity of the product

Method and Duration of Use 

The directions on the bottle say to apply it gently on the hair and rinse thoroughly. I take a dollop of it and massage on my wet hair. Rinse and then repeat if necessary (for example if I have applied oil or any hair mask prior to washing the hair, then I need a double rinse. Otherwise I just use the shampoo once). 

I bought this shampoo about 2 months ago. Ever since then, I have been using it every alternate day almost. 

What I love about Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Shampoo 

The Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Shampoo claims to specifically serve the needs of dull hair. It is enriched with Concentrated Gloss Elixir to envelop every single hair with a lightweight, smoothing shine net for long-lasting gloss. 

I find this to be a great regular use shampoo. It does leave the hair soft and manageable after every use. I won't say that my hair give off sparkling light after washing them with this shampoo (lol), but they do have a noticeable healthy look to them.

Another thing that I love about this shampoo is that after washing my hair with Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Shampoo, I don't really need to apply the conditioner. Every time my hair come out very soft and tangle-free post shampooing. (I just use the conditioner on my self-care-sundays #LazyGirlHacks :P ).

Now I do understand that it might not work like magic for someone with extremely damaged hair problems, but I am just sharing my honest review here. For my regular-dull-type hair, this shampoo works perfectly fine. 

Last but not the least,I do want to share something which the Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Shampoo doesn't even claim, but I find my hair breakage to be a bit less than before ever since I started using this. (May be that's due to the soothing effect it has on my dull hair, which would eventually prevent from breakage, I suppose....).

Price and Availability of the product 

Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Shampoo comes with a price tag of $13 (at the time of writing this post). For the quantity of the product, the price is completely worth it. Not just because the product works so great for me, but also because that’s a huge bottle when it comes to regular amount of usage. 

You can easily order Schwarzkopf Gliss Hair Repair Shampoo from Amazon.

I have been suffering for cystic acne for quite some years now. Apart from taking care of my dietary choices, I have been extremely cautious with the makeup/skin care products I apply on my face. Recently, I found this holy grail of a product, of which I am sharing my honest review. If you too are suffering from cystic acne prone skin and looking for a calming solution, then Yves Rocher Sebo Pure Vegetal Clarifying Lotion is your answer.

Texture and Ingredients of the product

This clarifying solution is transparent in color. Since it’s a gel, it has a slightly thick viscous type form. Like it’s not a runny liquid, which makes it easy to apply. It has a very mild fragrance which I find quite pleasant.

98% ingredients of Yves Rocher Sebo Pure Vegetal Clarifying Lotion are from natural origin. This lotion is Vegan, it is formulated products without animal derivatives. The key ingredients include Salicylic acid, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf juice and Witch Hazel.

For a long time I had been looking for a skin care product with Salicylic acid and Witch Hazel combination. Both these ingredients are known for their antibacterial and purifying properties. Aloe leaf juice is known for its soothing effects. So when I was reading about this product, I found the ingredients quite attractive.

Packaging and Quantity of Yves Rocher Sebo Pure Vegetal Clarifying Lotion

Yves Rocher Sebo Pure Vegetal Clarifying Lotion comes in a 5 fl. oz. or 150 ml bottle. As you can see, I have been using it for 2 months now but very little quantity is consumed. So I think its safe to say that a little goes a long way.

The bottle is quite sturdy. Since it is not a glass bottle, hence no fear of breakage in case it is dropped. The cap is also quite secure. Thus no chances of leakage of liquid from the cap.

The bottle is recyclable, and made from recycled plastic; as claimed by the company. I think its a good environment friendly packaging.

Method and Duration of Use

The directions on the bottle say to apply it to a cleansed face twice a day with the help of a cotton pad. However, I pour about 2 drops in my palm and apply them to my face with fingers. Not gonna lie, but I feel instant freshness as I apply it on my face. May be its the fresh mild fragrance more than the actual feel of the product on the skin?! 😉

I bought this clarifying lotion about 2 months ago. Ever since then, I have been using it every morning and evening.

What I love about Yves Rocher Sebo Pure Vegetal Clarifying Lotion

Honestly, ever since I have started using this lotion, my skin feels calm. There is no redness which usually occurs on my cystic acne prone skin once I start using a new skin care product. I can actually feel my skin to be “less bumpy” than usual. (I think people suffering from cystic acne would understand what I am referring to!). Of course the previous scars are there on the skin, but there have been no new ones in the last 2 months. (touch wood) and I think that’s what a person with cystic acne would consider an early Christmas gift! 🙂

The product says that it reduces imperfections and soothes skin texture. I can already attest to its soothing claim. The bottle says that it will not dry your skin. This I also agree with, as the lotion has never dried my skin out even though I started using it during autumn.

I have not made any changes to my skin care regime as I started using this lotion. No other new products were introduced in the regime either. In the mornings, I wash my face, after that I apply this lotion. And then I go about applying the day cream and face powder like I always do in the mornings. At night, after double cleansing my face, I apply it and then apply my night cream.

Though I am not a medical practitioner nor any dietitian, I can still share my honest review that I find this product working for my skin. I know cystic acne can be caused by a lot factors such as diet, hormones, lack of sleep, etc; however, these factors are pretty much constant for me in the last 2 months. The only introduction to my lifestyle was this product and it has been working wonders for me. I understand it might not work like magic for every person with every skin type / skin problem, but I am just sharing my honest review here.

Price and Availability of the product

Yves Rocher Sebo Pure Vegetal Clarifying Lotion comes with a price tag of $18.69 (at the time of writing this post). For the quantity of the product, the price is completely worth it. Not just because the product works so great for me, but also because that’s a huge bottle when it comes to daily amount of usage.

You can easily order it from Amazon.

The bottle comes with a spray nozzle and a tight cap so there is no fear of spillage. Since it holds 200 ml of the product, some might find it not so travel friendly due to its weight. (it is also available in 30 ml bottle)

PACKAGING AND QUANTITY:

                                  

TEXTURE AND FRAGRANCE:

CLAIMS MADE BY NIVEA NATURAL FAIRNESS ROLL ON:

IS IT THE BEST BUDGET ROLL ON AVAILABLE?

I would say probably yes!

For the pocket friendly price and easy availability, it is quite a decent product. I might be buying this again, or I might go back to my all time favorite Nivea Invisible anti-perspirant spray (detailed review here) 🙂

You can get this on Amazon here.
