Himalaya Herbals Neem Face pack : ZAP 'EM ACNE AWAY !

Women have always tried to enhance their beauty. Cosmetics and skincare were an integral part of women's life since Prehistoric times.

Face Packs are used not only to cleanse your skin but also to maintain its firmness.Roman women also used face packs using ingredients like crocodile dung ( Eww! -- Anyway-- who has guts to collect croc dung!!)


Enough of history !! Let's come to my current favourite face pack of the month - Himalaya Herbals Neem Face Pack !!  Don't doubt me but I have been loyal to my Fuller's earth for ages now - Its the only thing that works on my oily/combination, acne prone skin.

Apart from Fuller's Earth - This product is one of best things that has happened to me ... hehehehe... Here's the review of face pack --



Product: Himalaya Herbals Purifying Neem Face Pack.

Price and Quantity: 115 INR for 100 gms.


Action:
Clears skin and prevents outbreak and recurrence of pimples. Rejuvenates and firms up the skin. Imparts natural glow. Antibacterial purifying Neem Face Pack regulates excess oil secretion, cleans clogged pores and prevents recurrence of pimples. Improves skin texture. Neem, well known for its antibacterial properties, helps in controlling acne and pimples, and their recurrence. When combined with Turmeric, it effectively eliminates acne-causing bacteria. Fuller's Earth (Multani Mitti) cools and soothes the skin.


Indications:
Oily and Pimple-prone skin.


Ingredients Include:
                Azadirachta indica (Neem, Nimba)
                Panka (Fuller's earth, Multani Mitti)
                Curcuma longa (Turmeric, Haridra)



Use Directions:
Apply evenly over cleansed face and neck, avoiding the area around eyes. Allow it to dry for 10-15 minutes. Remove with wet sponge and wash the skin with cool water. Use once or twice a week.




My Take on the Product: 

My dermatologist had advised me to use "Sandalwood powder" as a face pack everyday to dry up my sebum producing glands. 

So apart from using Sandalwood powder, I apply this Face Pack twice a week. 

This face pack comes in a handy tube like packaging with a green flip cap. The tube is to be squeezed to dispense the product. 

The mask is thick and dark green in colour, with a strong herbal scent. While I'm okay with it, I suggest everyone to smell the product before you buy it. 

I apply the face pack with a help of my face pack brush, spreading it on evenly. It makes me look like a green Alien Monster !!!. 

I leave it on for about 20 minutes, and after it dries just wet it a little bit again to exfoliate before washing it thoroughly off. 

The texture of the face pack is thick and rough with neem leaves in it hence it becomes easy to exfoliate your skin before completely removing the pack from your face. 

So far the product has done excellent job of keeping my skin pimple free. It soothes the skin and helps to reduce the blemishes. It has a decent job of clearing your pores and help in oil control. 

The best thing about this product is that it is cheap and easily available in local drugstores or hypermarkets. I also suggest using this product along with neem face wash and neem scrub. It works the best. 

Please note: Product sent by the company's PR for consideration. 

How many of you beauty's have tried this one ??? Did it work for you ?? Let me know !! 

luv,
