REVIEW : Intenso Facial Cleanser by Esterella Professional - Normal / Dry Skin

theanvolyzer 10:56 pm Dry Skin , Face Care 0 Comments

Hey People!

Welcome back to another Post

I really like products which smell good,

I Love products which smell good and can be used on face.

The products which fall into this category are Face Washes, Face Cleansers, Face Scrubs etc

But, I usually stay away from Face Washes/ Cleansers, and hesitate using them (I don’t have any hesitation in purchasing them lol)

With the fear that, they might make my Dry (Skin) Face even more dry.

I recently came across a Facial Cleanser for Normal / Dry Skin

I must say, I was pretty excited to test it out.

So, let’s Review

Intenso Lightening Facial Cleanser by Esterella Professional

for Normal / Dry Skin

Looks like this

Price : INR 349 for 200ml

Skin Type : Normal / Dry Skin

Packaging

One of the things I love about this product is its Packaging!

It is Simple and Classy in the way it looks and works

Its outer cover is clear with a pump provided on top.

The liquid is green in color, which shows off nicely in the Clear Bottle.

Details like Skin Type for which its compatible, Manufacture Date, Expiry date, Ingredients list etc are clearly mentioned on the bottle.

The pump does not have a ‘Stopper’ to block the pump from getting pressed, so it will be tricky to use it while travelling.

Because of not having a stopper, if the pump gets pressed then there are chances that product will get spilled.

Fragrance and Consistency

It has a slightly thick consistency and very very small quantity is enough to get a good cleanse.

I love this about this product, a little goes a long way

The cleansing liquid is green in colour, but turns clear while actually using it.

Fragrance of this product seems Artificial and a little on the strong side, I would have preferred if it was mild

Initially it may seem a little Strong, but with multiple uses you get conformable with it.

Performance

I like to use the Intenso Facial Cleanser after a long day of Work, to thoroughly Cleanse my Face.

and it does just that!

It is super light on the Skin, Works quickly and does the Job Well.

It Smells great, lathers up nicely and Cleanses thoroughly.

After using this product, I'm left with a Happy Cleansed Face and Feeling very Refreshed.

I expected it make my skin feel dry, but it did not.

I just have a cleansed feeling and don't even have to apply moisturizer.

Since my skin has been not too dry lately, I'm skipping the Moisturiser

But I will definitely put on some Moisturiser if it feels too dry after using this product.

For people who have super dry skin, some moisturiser will be required after using the Cleanser, it varies from person to person.

I have been using the product for quite some time now, and did not face any issues with it.

PROS

Simple and Easy to handle

Does not dry out Skin

Cleanses Well

Light on the Skin

Makes you feel refreshed

CONS

Price is on the Higher Side

Might not the best for Travelling

Overall I really like this product, and look forward to using it daily.

I like that it does not dry out my Skin.

REVIEW : Butter and Mud Mask by Greenberry Organics

theanvolyzer 10:55 pm BrandReview , FaceCare 0 Comments

Hey Everyone!

Welcome back to another Post!

It’s been a while since I reviewed a Face Mask.

Also I have been testing and loving a product by Greenberry Organics and had to review it for you guys!

I Absolutely love the 3 in 1 Mud ash by Greenberry Organics

And was super excited when I got to know about this product which is perfect for my Dry Skin.

Presenting you, Review of

Butter and Mud Mask by Greenberry Organics

It looks like this

Price : INR 850

For Skin Type : Normal to Dry/Sensitive Skin

It is said to be an Intense Therapy for Dry and Damaged Skin.

Made with Goodness of 8 Herbs

Paraben and Phthalates Free

Packaging

Firstly, I found the Name "Butter and Mud Mask" to be very interesting and cool, I have never seen any product with this combination of Ingredients.

As always Greenberry organics kept the Packaging Simple and neat and let the product speak for itself.

I love the fact that all details such as Quantity, Skin Type, Ingredients etc are clearly visible in the packaging.

Texture

I'm in awe of the texture of this product, I have never seen a mask having this type of consistency!

Even though its nowhere mentioned that this is a gel based mask, its texture feels like it is.

Its gell-y and glides on super smooth.

I also found its Fragrance to be different and Quite Interesting!

It must be the Butter in it.

Quality

Glides on to the Skin smoothly and dries quicker than expected.

Unlike 3 in 1 Mud ash by Greenberry Organics this one does make the skin feel tight after drying, just like all other masks.

After applying, I felt some tingling and suction in dry parts of my face. Sometimes the tingling was so much that it hurt a little too.

Do not forget to wet the face before applying the mask.

I found the tingling was more when I applied the Mask on dry skin.

Results

Once the mask is off, face feels Cleaner, Smoother and Brighter.

I easily get rashes on my face due to extreme dryness, I remember having them that day.

But, after using this Mask : My Face was so Clear and well Hydrated.

I always need to apply moisturiser every time I Wash/ Cleanse my face, my skin is that dry.

But this product hydrated my face so well that, I didn't even think about moisturiser!

What amazes me is, while the mask is drying, skin becomes more and more tight.

But as soon as the mask is washed off : you are greeted with a well hydrated face.

Such a contrast isn't it?

My thoughts on "Butter and Mud Mask"

If you haven't guessed it already : I Absolutely love this Mask!

I have to thank Greenberry organics for coming up with such an amazing product for us Dry Skin people!

I reach for this Mask very often and am amazed every single time!

Clear, Bright and well hydrated face is a deal no one should miss out on.

What did you think about this Product?

REVIEW : Customised Body Lotion from Freshistry.com - Lavender Amber

theanvolyzer 10:52 pm BathBody , BrandReview 2 Comments

Hey Everyone!

Welcome back to a brand new Blog Post.

Today’s Post is going to be on Skin Care.

Lately I have been obsessed with Body Lotions, in a City Bangalore where its always Cool/ Cold, us people with Dry Skin need to always have Moisturizers Handy.

The products I will be talking about today are from Freshistry.com

If you people checked out my previous posts, you will know that I talked about Freshistry, where you can Customise Skincare Products Online

From deciding on Extracts, Base, Color to selecting the Fragrance of your product, all can be done on this Website.

So let us see how my Customised Body Lotion – Lavender Amber fared.

This is how it looks

Price : INR 375

Packaging

When I first saw the Curated product, I was quite disappointed with the Quantity provided for the Price.

I decided to go for Purple Tinge/Colour for the Body Lotion, but the product ended up looking Grey/Pale Blue

However, the Bottle is Travel friendly and not too Bulky.

It comes with a Cap style opener, should flick it open to get the product.

The label on the product provides all kinds of Info like Shelf life, Ingredients etc.

The Customized name which I chose for the Product, is displayed clearly and looks pretty good

Fragrance and Texture

The way Fragrance is put into this product is Quite interesting.

I chose to ‘Love and Roses’ Fragrance and was quite disappointed when it felt too mild when I sniffed it after taking a drop of product on my palm.

However, after application, the fragrance is not too mild anymore and is pleasant, which was a sweet surprise.

‘Love and Roses’ Fragrance is perfect for people who want Sweet, appropriately mild Fragrance.

The Texture is quite thick and settles deep into the Skin

Quality and Performance

Even though the quantity seems to be less for the Price, very minimal amount is required for a good moisturising session.

Since the texture is thick, this makes it perfect to use this product in winters when I need good Moisturising as I have dry Skin.

During summer, this might feel quite Sticky and Heavy.

I have not felt the need to moisturize again after hours of using the product, which means it's doing its job well.

My Experience

I had an amazing experiencing Customising the product.

Being able to choose what goes into the product and customising it to your exact needs is very Exciting.

The Website is very easy to Navigate and makes the entire process very Simple.

I'm very happy with the way the Final product has turned out and this product will always be a little special.

PROS

Ability to Customize the product exactly the way you want it.

Transparency maintained by the Brand.

Does exactly what it's supposed to.

Easy Navigation and Simple process.

Availability of Wide Range of Herbs, Extracts to suit everyone's Needs.

CONS

Expensive when compared to other products in the Market.

Short Shelf life can lead to product Wastage.

Lesser Quantity available as compared to its price.

Is it really worth it?

If you want the experience of customising your product just like the way you want, and don't mind the Splurge, then it's Worth it.

You will definitely get an exciting experience and a effective product for the Price Paid.

Early Picker - Website Review and Haul

theanvolyzer 9:56 pm EyeMakeup , FaceMask 1 Comments

Hey Everyone!

Welcome back to another Blog Post!

I have always been very Curious and Interested in Foreign Makeup.

But never got an opportunity to purchase it because of Shipping and Trust Issues with Websites.

Even though these products are available on Websites like Ebay etc, I was never confident enough to invest in it.

Then I came across Korean Beauty or K-Beauty, which is a different world in itself.

Korean Skincare is very well known for its effectiveness and Korean makeup is famous for its Cute and Adorable Packaging.

Then I stumbled across a Website, via which I was easily able to Purchase Korean Beauty products from Leading brands.

Early Picker theanvolyzer Review EarlyPicker Bangalore Blogger Website Review Makeup International Haul

Introducing www.Earlypicker.com, an E-Commerce Platform all about

K-Beauty.

This is how it looks

My Experience with Early Picker

I decided to order some Makeup from brands like Aprilskin, 3CE, Peripera Peri, Labiotte, Tony Moly etc

As Koreans have lighter skin tones compared to Indians, I stayed away from Face Makeup like Foundation, Concealers etc because I did not want to Order a Wrong shade.

Also, I'm a Lipstick Junkie, so I was sold looking at the Collection of Lip products available on the Website.

Here is a List of Items I ordered

1. Labiotte Chateau Wine Lip Tint

OR01 Chardonnay Orange

RD02 Nebbiolo Red

2. Tony Moly Liptone Get It Tint

03 Play Orange

3. 3CE Tattoo Lip Tint

#COOLEST

4. Peripera Peri's Ink the Velvet

006 Celeb Deep Rose

014 Beauty Peak Rose

5. 3CE Matte Lip Color

02 Mocha Rose,

03 Pave Pink

7. Aprilskin Magic Zoom Eyeliner

02 Deep Zoom

03 Chic Zoom

9. 3CE One Color Shadow

#GOLDSHOWER (SPARKLING.T)
#HUGME (MATT.T)

10. Aprilskin Turn-up Color Treatment

11. Aprilskin Pinkyclay Nose Pack

The Shipping took about to 7 to 10 days and the products arrived safely.

The products were well secured and were in best Condition.

I'm very happy with the Quality of the products, it was worth the money.

I was scared about Customs but somehow managed to escape from it!

If you follow me on Instagram, you will know that many people asked for Review of Labiotte Chateau Wine Lip Tints, so a Review will be Coming Up.

Keep up with me on Instagram for Swatches of these.

Individual reviews of all products coming soon.

What I like about Early Picker

I really like the fact that the Products are at discounted products which I have never seen on any other Website.

A lipstick at Regular price 9$ will be at 6$ on Early Picker

I also like the fact that there are very detailed product details for some products, like swatches etc

It makes our research very simple and helps a lot in finalising the product and shade.

I was Impressed with the Customer Service of Early Picker!

I had ordered for one packet of Aprilskin Turn-up Color Treatment, I was emailed and informed that if I needed to colour my full hair, just one packet would not be enough at all.

I was pleasantly surprised, This makes it clear that Early Picker strives for Customer Satisfaction!

Also, for every order decent amount of Samples are Sent.

I received at least 4 to 5 Products as Samples, with Face Masks, Lipsticks etc

What I expect from the Website

I would expect the website to bring in more Korean Brands.

Also, I observed that certain category had very less products listed under them, I would love it if the website works on it.

Overall I had an Awesome experience shopping from Early Picker and I'm coming back for more!

If you need any Information about Shipping, Tracking orders etc, you can checkout the Website.
