Himalaya Purifying Neem Scrub-Review & photos

Hey everyone,
Hope you're enjoying the week and the hot summers!!
But maybe your skins are not enjoying this season due to acne or pimple problem...isn't it?
And for that here I have a great product: Himalaya herbals Purifying Neem Scrub (with Antibacterial properties)


What it claims:
Specially formulated to give you clear, problem-free skin, this scrub works with a dual exfoliation and purifying action. Neem well known for its purifying and antibacterial properties, kills problem causing bacteria. Combined with exfoliating Apricot granules, it gently scrubs away blackheads, dead skin cells & embedded impurities, leaving your skin soft,clear,refreshed and problem free.

Key ingredients:
Neem, Apricot

Direction to use:

Moist face and neck and apply, avoiding area around eyes. Massage gently with fingertips in a circular motion for a minut. Wash off and pat dry. Use 2-3 times weekly.
Our product is dermatologically-tested, noncomedogenic and hypoallergenic.

Packaging

It comes in a tube with an attached cap which is very comfortable in use and the tube is very secure enough.

Texture

The texture of this scrub is semi cream-gel base with granules suspended in it which is so easy to spread on the face and feels mild.

Price

Rs 65 for 50g

In the mirror of my own experience

I have been a big fan of lotus herbals scrub but never tried this one due to a silly reason that I thought that it's a neem scrub so must be for oily skin but now when I've tried it, I regret my assumption of avoiding such a great scrub.

I use it only 2 times in a week in the same way like I have mentioned HERE and after 2 weeks I noticed a clear difference in my skin. Soft, bright and clear. I won't say that my skin was not good before but after using it there was a bright clearness in my face. The best thing is that it’s so mild and suitable for every type of skin.

Good points

  • I love the mild texture of this scrub especially the white and green granules.
  • Though I have no pimples but it can be effective for the skin which has pimples because it contains anti-bacterial properties which can work to reduce the recurrence of pimples.
  • It makes the skin clean, fresh and soft.
  • It’s also effective in reducing the blackheads.
  • It removes all the dirt and gives a clear smooth skin to you as it cleans the skin pores.
  • The tube packaging with flip-flop cap keeps the scrub secure from wastage and it’s very easy to use.
  • Very comfortable in carrying out for traveling.
  • So the product is completely worth the price.

Bad points

  • I found only one bad point in this scrub & that is that it stings a bit in my eyes which is quite irritable.

Final thoughts

Finally I can say that I love this scrub and I’m happy that I have another option to change my scrub time to time. It’s really effective and works well on the skin. in summers I think it’s more effective than Lotus Herbal scrub.

Rating

4/5

Recommendation

Yes, in this hot summer, I’ll suggest every girl to try it because it has no skin type bondage so it’ll work for all types of skin. Even teen age girls can use it without tension.

So ladies what about you? Have you tried this scrub? What are your thoughts about this product? I would really love to know your opinions and experience.

Himalaya Purifying neem Face Wash- Review & Photos

My skin type is usually normal but it has changes with the weather. In summers it remains normal but in monsoon it becomes a bit oily. I have to change my skincare routine according to its nature, so as a result the products also change.

Last summer when I visited Delhi, the weather was so hot there that I found some pimples popping out on my face. It was so irritating. So I bought Himalaya Purifying Neem Face Wash because it’s a herbal product and I always prefer herbal products for my skin. I used it twice a day and after four days only, my skin became clear from pimples and I found my skin clean and soft. After that unfortunately I couldn’t buy it again as I went on trying other face washes in which I found some good while some were not of my type. But now I have it again and I’m so happy to review one of my favorite face wash.




What it claims:

A soap free herbal formulation that gently removes impurities and prevents pimples.

Neem, well known for its anti-bacterial properties, kill problem causing bacteria, and Turmeric effectively controls acne and pimples. Use regularly for clear, soft and pimple free skin.

Direction of use:

Moisten face and neck, apply a small amount of purifying Neem Face Wash and gently work up a lather using a circular motion. Wash off & pat dry. Use twice daily.

Active ingredients:

Azadirachta indica (Neem, Nimba) Curcuma longa (Turmeric, Haridra)

Packaging:

It's packed in squeeze out tube with the top cap. I find it a bit difficult to open up the cap but that’s a good thing in a way coz there’s no fear of it leaking out of the tube during traveling.

Net weight: 50 ml

Price: Rs. 45

In the mirror of my own experience:

Seeing pimples on my face was really horrible, although they were small ones but still I never have had any so it was a bad experience for me. But after using this face wash, they all vanished in 4-5 days and that was really impressive. Since then I’ve used this facewash only during summers despite the fact that I don’t face much of pimple problem now. But still it’s really good for me in summers.

What I like about this facewash:

It can make your face pimple free in less than a week.

It’s quite moisturizing and even if you skip out the moisturizer, it’ll do. But if your skin is normal you should use a moisturizer after this.

Makes the face look fresh and supple.

Gives a lovely soothing effect to the face.

Didn’t experience any breakouts on using it.

The packaging is nice and the product is handy.

It’s a herbal product and that too from Himalaya Herbals, so you can trust the product; no side effects.

Does not sting much if goes into the eyes.

Very little quantity is required in one wash and thus the quantity of the product is worth the price.

So of course, the price is very reasonable.

What I don’t like:

It’s not good for me in winters as my skin becomes dry at that time so I usually don’t use this face wash in winters.

It does not produce much lather which, in a way is good, but not for those who want lather producing face washes.

Final thoughts-

So overall all I have to say is that I’m loving this face wash and one of the best face washes that I’ve used till now. I’m surely gonna buy it again and again for summers and monsoon.

Rating:

4.5/5

Will I recommend it:

Yes, it should be must for oily and combination skinned girls. Even normal skin type girls should try it out in case they face any problems like pimples or acne.

So that was all about my experience with this facewash from Himalaya. Hope this review helps!! have you tried it?? What do you think?
