REVIEW ON GARNIER FRUCTIS OIL-IN-CREAM OIL REPLACEMENT CREAM

Hi lovlies.. happy sunday :-) i have a shopping plan today am so excited about that.. obviously every girl will be happy and excited when it comes to shopping :-) so before i get into my shopping drama i thought i should blog a review on a product today that everyone's been talking about currently or i should say flaunting about :-P its a hair care product from garnier which is called GARNIER FRUCTIS OIL-IN-CREAM OIL REPLACEMENT CREAM. I am a huge fan of hair oiling.. i prepare my own hair oil at home with my moms old recipe which never let me down.. i do overnight oiling twice a week..

I first saw this product on instagram and i immediately googled the product and i saw some good reviews on it and so i wanted to try this product.. i picked up mine in H&G near me.. :-) they had two different sizes and i picked up the small one.. just to try it first.. i cannot say i love the product but i like it a lot.. just so convinient to use.. i use this cream as a leave-in-conditioner or a frizz taming cream on the go.. :-)


PRICE : 60 rs for 100ml

SHELF LIFE : 36 months

WHAT DOES THE PRODUCT SAYS :





INGREDIENT LIST :




As you can see, am too lazy to type all those product description and ingredients list.. posting a picture is lot more easier ;-) " A picture is worth a thousand words " they say.. so.. yeah.. lets stick to the concept :-P

PACKAGING

 To me personally packaging doesnt even matters.. if its functional, that is all i want :) this product comes in a very attractive packaging.. it is definitely gonna grab your attention at stores.. it comes in a yellow tube as you can see with a flip open cap which is sturdy so its not gonna break and leak when you take it in your hand bag.

FRAGRANCE :

 i love the smell of it.. it smells so fruity..i currently use dove shampoo which smells really nice.. its smell stays for a very long time.. this hair cream covers the fragrance of the dove shampoo.. i can smell only my cream and not my shampoo :-) but it lasts only for about 8 to 9 hours after which it kinda fades away..

TEXTURE :


 It looks and feels like a normal conditioner. :-) i need not explain much about the texture now.. but when you apply it on your hair.. it makes your hair lil wet looking and it get absorbed in just five minutes.

PERFORMANCE :

I once shampooed my hair without conditioning it.. my hair in general is quite dry.. i applied this cream after towel drying my hair.. it felt exactly the same way as it would have felt when i used a hair conditioner while shampooing my hair.. it does not feel sticky at all.

It tames my frizz and makes my hair much more manageable. it does not give a huge amount of shine to my hair but it definitely makes my hair soft. This effect lasts only for a day.. the next day you might have to reapply the  cream.. my ends some times feels extraordinarily dry.. i use this on my ends to just to smoothen it up a bit.. It helps detangling my hair. but i cannot say my comb just slides through my hair but it definitely makes the process easier.

Looking at the ingredients list am afraid to use this on my scalp or to use it as my overnight hair mask.. so s it definitely is not a replacement for oil. but it is a good leave-in-conditioner and a frizz tamer..

PROS

1. Tames frizz
2. Makes my hair soft and smooth.
3. Helps in detangling
4. smells really nice
5. affordable

CONS

1. The smooth effect doesnt last for more than a day
2. ingredient list is a paragraph full of chemicals :-/

SUMMING UP MY REVIEW :

I would not say it completely replaces my good old hair oil. But it makes the hair much more manageable. and it makes the hair smell really fruity and fresh. its a good product over all.

MY RATING

3.9/5 ( looking at the claims they make awarding 4 would not do justice.. but its overall a good buy )

THANK YOU :-)

REVIEW ON LOTUS HERBALS APRISCRUB

Hello ladies :-) hope you are all doing good.. weekend is here and its time to relax ourselves from busy schedules.. Today i am gonna talk about my current skin care favorite.. i have been loving this stuff recently so much :-) .. and its a face scrub by LOTUS called ''LOTUS HERBALS APRISCRUB''.. I love exfoliating my skin regularly.. it makes my skin soft and get rid of my dead cells.. I exfoliate my skin once in three days.. I have few recipes for home made face and body scrub that works amaizingly for my skin which ill be sharing in my blog soon.:-) but i do like to try out some new products which are readily available just to try something new and to find out what is working best for my skin.. So that is how i ended up buying this scrub from lotus.. :-) and am glad that i did :-)



PRICE : INR 225 for 180gm

SHELF LIFE : 3 Years.

WHAT DOES THE PRODUCT SAYS ??


DIRECTION :


TIP OF THE DAY :-).. When you exfoliate your skin it removes all the dead skin cells which forms a layer  on your skin.. when this layer is removed your actual skin is exposed.. thus it causes heavy damage when it comes in contact with sun.. exfoliated skin is more prone to sun damage. so it is important to use a sun screen. :-)

INGREDIENT LIST :


MY EXPERIENCE WITH THE PRODUCT

It comes in a huge tube packaging with a flip open cap.. it is also available in smaller version which is very travel friendly. I am so bad in describing the fragrance :-( but lemee try :-P it smells like a mixture of sandalwood and some fruit.. :-) it fades away once you wash the face. :-) It has a very creamy texture and hence it is very easy to work the scrub into your face.. the granules are in brown color and it is quite big and chunky.. so this scrub is not for people with heavy acne or pimple problem. It can be lil harsh on them.. but for people with normal skin it works amaizingly.. as the granules are too big one should be light handed while working the product.. my face feels completely clean and soft after using the scrub..it removes my whitehead completely :-).. skin becomes little dry after using the scrub which is quite normal so moisturizer should be used..


PROS

1. It cleanses the skin very well.
2. Skin feels really soft.
3. you get huge quantity so its gonna last for a very long time.
4. removes blackhead or whitehead.

CONS

1.not suitable for people with pimple or acne problem.
2. it contains paraben.

MY OVER ALL OPINION

I love this scrub a lot..:-) it exfoliates really well. my skin feels really soft.. but this scrub is not for people with pimple or acne problem.. since the granules are too big it can be harsh on them..

MY RATING

4.5/5

THANK YOU :-)
