Lacto Calamine Oil Balance Face Wash Review

Hello everyone. While I was browsing Nykaa and trying to add something to my cart to avoid paying shipping charges, I found a new face wash: Lacto Calamine Oil Balance Face Wash. I am a regular user of the Lacto Calamine Lotion for Oily Skin and on seeing a new launch from the same brand made me buy the face wash. On a regular basis I use a face wash that has been prescribed by my dermatologist.


Packaging: 
The face wash comes in a squeeze tube form and came wrapped with a clear film on the cap. The nozzle was sealed with a foil cap.

Quantity: 
50ml

Price: 
80 INR

Ingredients:
Lacto Calamine Face wash ingredients



Claims:
3 way action for oil balance.
1. Kaolin - contains natural minerals that absorb excess oil without removing essential nutrients from the skin
2. Glycerin - retains natural moisture, prevents excessive drying of the skin
3. Neem - prevents pimples with its anti-germs properties.

 

Review: 
I am using this face wash for 3 weeks now and twice in a day. I completely agree with the first 2 claims of the product that it takes away all the excess oil from the face without making my skin dry. However, it doesn't prevent pimples but the face wash by itself didn't cause breakout. I got a very clear idea since I was trying out another makeup product along with the use of this face wash which happen to cause break out.
The product has fragrance very similar to that of the Lacto Calamine Lotion. This foaming face wash is white in colour and its consistency is like a body lotion. It does a good job of cleaning the dirt off my face and it doesn't leave my skin dry (which most of the oil free face washes do).

Pros:
  • Very affordable
  • Easily available
  • It takes off excess oil
  • Both oily skin and dry skin people can use it as it doesn't rip the skin off moisture
  • Small amount is required
  • Paraben free
Cons:
  • Contains SLS
  • Fragrance might be an issue
Final Verdict: 
4/5. Had it not contain SLS, I would have given it a 5/5. The facewash works well but products containing SLS shouldn't be used as much. But for the love of Lacto Calamine it is worth giving a try.

HealthVit Bath & Body Tea Tree Body & Face Cream

Hello lovelies! Today I am reviewing a moisturizer: HealthVit Bath & Body Tea Tree Body & Face Cream. I had purchased this in the month of November anticipating the dry winter to take a toll on my skin. I generally have combination to oily skin all through the year except in the winter. However, this winter my skin was more on the normal side than drier. The only moisturizer that I use, irrespective of the season, is my Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion. Despite having oily skin, I really enjoy keeping my skin hydrated as it also helps to check further oil secretion. I came to know about the brand, HealthVit, from Nykaa when I was searching for a facewash, which is indeed a very good facewash. Hence, this brand a rather good impression to me.   HealthVit Bath & Body Tea Tree Body & Face Cream About HealthVit: HealthVit is a part of West-Coast Pharmaceutical Works Ltd. and primarily manufactures natural health and dietary supplements, personal care products, ...

Faces Magneteyes Dramatic Volumizing Mascara - Review, Swatches

Hey everyone! I am writing down after ages. So I am starting anew with reviewing a mascara. Thank you so much if you're a returning reader. Cheers! Well, I believe, mascara is one independent component of makeup which pretty much turns around the whole look. These short shelf-lived warriors are must-haves and definitely be replaced every six months. And for that very reason, I rely on affordable ones. With so many brands now being available at our fingertips, across multiple channels, buyers are challenged to pick the best ones for themselves. Maybelline and Essence are known for their excellent collections of mascaras and influencers make us buy them. Today I'm sharing a lesser-known mascara from Faces Canada. It is from the range of Magneteyes. While I'm a big-time fan of the Faces Magneteyes Kajal , I had to try the Faces Magneteyes Mascara as well. Packaging: It is red a tube and has no non-sense packaging. The wand is pretty fat and has synthetic bristles, ...
