Product Review: Kent RO Machine

I invested in a reverse osmosis or RO machine some time back. I wasn’t too sure of the quality of the water we were accepting as pure and fresh from the vendors of the 20 liter plastic cans. And it was getting tedious to boil the water before we drank it, allowing for time to cool it down not to mention the amount of gas … Continue reading Product Review: Kent RO Machine

Product Review: Face Gel

Whether one’s skin runs to dry or oily, we all need a bit of moisturiser on our faces eventually. In a place like Hyderabad with the dry climate, a light moisturiser goes a long well, even in the summers. Especially if it’s a gel-based one which cools while it softens the skin. Let’s find out a bit more about the Himalaya Natural Glow Kesar Face … Continue reading Product Review: Face Gel

Product Review: Foldable Book Stand

I recently got my mother a book stand. She’s an avid reader and reads newspapers, paperbacks and hardcover books as well. Since each one of these articles varies in size and weight, she needed a firm stand which wouldn’t take up too much when she wasn’t reading.

Vaadi Herbal’s claim to fame is an age-old Ayurvedic heritage that goes back 150 years. Catering to different product categories like … Continue reading Product Recommendation: Herbal Foot Scrub

Product Recommendation: Callus Remover

I have inherited chronically dry skin on my feet. This doesn’t mean I always have cracked soles and rough skin but a tendency to go towards both these things very quickly. And given my lack of arch in both feet, I need to maintain feet which aren’t just healthy but also capable of taking the load of a body without getting too much pain from … Continue reading Product Recommendation: Callus Remover

Product Review: Detergent Pods

I love the idea of detergent pods. What’s not to love? They melt completely leaving no residue, they are easy to store, they are tiny and take up very little space barring the box they came in and they are an “all-in-one” product that negates the need for extra products like fabric softener extra. It’s a compact and complete package all by itself! Ariel launched … Continue reading Product Review: Detergent Pods
