THE BODY SHOP Facial buffer review

The body shop's claim of becoming beautiful naturally is absolutely true!
I was roaming around city centre mall in gurgaon and was very happy to see THE BODY SHOP there and did a tiny shopping there..
the first one to be reviewed is the facial buffer!

WHAT TBS CLAIMS:
A gentle exfoliating sponge to polish your skin, whilst cleansing, leaving it feeling refreshed and looking radiant. Use daily for a gentle skin boost. Particularly good for use on dry skin that needs to be exfoliated regularly, it leaves the skin feeling soft and smooth.


PRICE: 1451NR


TIPS:Splash your face with warm water. Apply Vitamin E Cream Cleanser to the buffer and smooth over the face and neck. Splash your face with water to remove residue. Use every morning or evening to help remove dead skin cells.
Apply a small amount of cleansing foam to the Facial Buffer and rub over the face in circular movements.


MY TAKE ON THE PRODUCT:
I bought this buffer only yesterday and am already in love with it..
thereis absolute differece the very next moment of usage..he..he..yes..even my hubby toched my face and sed its softer(yay for it)
i didnt have a vit e cleanser from tbs nor am i dry skinned but i absolutely insist the necessity of scrubbing an oily acne prone skin like mine..
i had the olay natural white cleanser with me and put one drop of it( yes just 1 drop) and slightly used it on my face in circular motions and in white head prone areas gently for abt 30 seconds..the drop of cleanser i put was lathering like i had a used a spoon of it and tadaa, my face was clean and soft and polished...


PROS:

• ECONOMIC
• LIVES UP TO ITS CLAIMS
• VERY LITTLE USE OF CLEANSER 
• IT WILL LAST ATLEAST FOR 6-9 MONTHS

CONS:

• WASH IT AND SUNDRY IT ATLEAST ONCE A WEEK
• IF USED HARSHLY, IT MIGHT IRRITATE THE SKIN

IF U R A BATH PRODUCT AHOLIC, U MIGHT SURELY WANA TRY IT AND I NEVER KNEW A DROP OF CLEANSER LATHERS SO MUCH;)
I WUD NOT SAY ITS AN ABSOLUTE MUST HAVE PRODUCT BUT IF U ARE ANY WHERE CLOSER TO A TBS COUNTER, ITS WORTH A BUY THEN, AFTER ALL, ITS JUST 145!


I RATE IT 8/10


LOV YAA..
TAKE CARE GUYS!

All about dark circles and crows feet and fab india aloe under eye gel review!

Happy friday my dear ladies...
Are you all aware what is the the most common skin problem following acne in women in twenties?
Yep, its is under eye dark circle , dull eyes or eye bags, or premature wrinkles or so called crows feet..however we tend to call them , they refer to problems in the under eye areas..THAT TOO IN 9/10 WOMEN
Whether you just entered 20's or u r about to enter 30's, almost every women tend to have this problem..
Thought there are several causes like hormonal problems, vitamin deficiencies, sudden fluctuations in weight, certain diseases like diabetes, malnutrition, inadequate sleep, polluted environment, inappropriate use and rash use of cosmetics,bad diet, excessive stress etc., the major cause is environment and stress and may be even inadequate sleep..

It is said that every human being should have 8 hours of peaceful sleep everyday, with at least 8 glasses of water with a diet  consisting of atleast 1 fruit and 2 veggies..Is every1 here enjoying this luxury?
Am sure, i can hear a lot of NO's...so let us think what could be done to to reduce or avoid getting these under eye problems and how to delay the onset of crow's feet.
Crows feet are the first sign of aging and is supposed to appear first around ur late 20's  but now has started to appear in mid 20's ;( , the reason being all above mentioned..

My buy!
I'm going to be 25 this October and i very badly wanted to start an under eye cream to post pone my crows feet and to clear my dark circles and read several review..there were many reviews of this fab india under eye aloe gel and 3 were for it and 2 were against it..
but i decided you buy this gel because: fab india is a well reputed brand and most are organic and their quality is always good..And moreover it is only 150 INR and it has aloe vera which is an anti ageing elixir..


What fab india sez:

This unique formula contains aloe vera gel that reduces puffiness and revives tired looking eyes. Regular use helps reduce dark circles and prevents wrinkles. 25 gm.

Ingredients: Purified Water, Aloe Vera Extract, Glycerine, Triethano- lamine, Carbopol, Methyl Paraben, Propyl Paraben. 

COST: Rs.150.00

My experience with the product:

this gel is a clear gel which comes in a transparent plastic tub..the consistency is quite thick and it is not at all oily..hence u can just ply it on your eye and wait for 5 minutes and even go out unlike most under eye creams which will look oily..the moment u apply this, there is a coolong effect and in seconds u can feel the firming o the gel..it has a faint smell and it is very pleasant..
i was using it every bay over my fab india vit e depigmentation cream twice, in the morning and at night and visible results were seen in 3 weeks when my friend asked what i was using that my eyes are bright and the complexion is quite improved..me got cho cho happi:-))))
I dunno its effect on crows feet though;( since i had none!




            

                                           i guess now u can see the consistency of this
Pros:

• economic
• wearable even before going out
• contains aloevera
• brightens and firms the under eye area
• will last for atleat 3 months
• instant cooling effect
• it has a white plastic lid beneath its cap which kinda makes it hygienic

Cons:

The package is not good

I could find no other cons!

my ultimate verdict: I rate it 8/10
Its a good buy if u have dark circles or dull eyes and if u wana start on an eye cream coz u feel u need to star( i duuno wat i meant).
This was my first eye gel and hence i cannot compare the efficacy.
My next buy would be aroma magic almond under eye cream, so that i'll compare the efficacy and then stick to the better one!
Love you all!
