Using shampoo out of a bottle is now passé. We have shampoo cones, bars and lots of other hair care products that are floating around in the market. A not-so-recent pitch is one of scalp hair, which is separate from hair care. Here is where the differences lie: Scalp treatments unclog the hair follicles, releasing natural conditioning oils and help relieve a dry scalp and remove all those nasty dry … Continue reading Product Review: Scalp Scrub
Hello everyone! While most of us are familiar with these terms flying around all the time and pasted on the back of so many products on the actual and virtual shelves, from time to time we may forget what they actually stand for.

There are people who really like their coffee. To the extent that they use products which have coffee in them for their personal hygiene as well. A while back I had posted a review of a coffee body scrub that I use regularly and which is really good VFM. Today’s product review comes from a guest reviewer who has found that she really loves another … Continue reading Guest Review: Coffee Soap
This review is of a brand that I’ve not used much. Whenever I have had occasion to use the products it’s been solely due to them being gifted since I usually find it quite OTT expensive. And since I’ve been pretty happy with the other products I’ve used on and off on my acne-prone face, I’ve not had much reason to check out their range. … Continue reading Product Review: Facial Cleaner With Sandalwood & Orange Peel
A lot of people might frown a bit at this one and wonder…really? Underarm deodorant is something that doesn’t get written about too often I feel. It’s something everyone’s used at least once in their lives and usually when they are in a tearing hurry and need to not stink. Beginning with the aerosol sprays which smelled pretty good but did a good bit of … Continue reading Product Review: Wild Ideas Pit Paste
I got introduced to this brand- Wild Ideas when one of our initial guest reviewers recommended one of their eco-friendly products.

Over time I’ve been using their soaps, their dishwashing liquids, floor cleaners and and the product that I’ll be reviewing today- their moisturising body … Continue reading Product Review: Moisturising Body Oils

Having a quick fix for making the dark circles and spots vanish while the skin … Continue reading Guest Review: Concealer Palette
This is the first time am posting a review of a product that has been recommended by a doctor for relieving dry skin and keeping the skin healthy overall. While this isn’t a medicated product per se, it’s not the usual over the counter moisturiser that people usually know about. Excela Rich Facial Hydrating Lotion from Cipla ticks multiple boxes not only your daily skin … Continue reading Product Recommendation: Excela Rich Hydrating Facial Lotion
Anyone who suffers from problematic skin complete with blemishes, faces some tough choices when getting ready for any kind of interaction with people.

That’s why after looking at multiple choices for a concealer, … Continue reading Product Review: Maybelline Concealer
