My Take on Khadi Fresh Lemon Face Wash:

Khadi Fresh Lemon (with Neem and Tulsi) Face Wash comes in a slim transparent bottle with a flip top cap. The bottle is quite sturdy but the cap is not. I broke the flip within a few days :P

It is a thick transparent yellow color gel. The weird thing about this face wash is it smells like detergent powder (Really!) It lathers well and only a small amount is enough. It cleans well, but leaves a slippery effect that won’t go ever (even after 15-20 splashes and rubbing). It makes my skin dry after washing, and I feel an urge to apply moisturizer right after it. I have not seen any good effect after using this face wash, other than washing my face. But the gel itself gives me the feel that how much chemicals are infused in it; also it contains SLES and Preservative.

I have used many face washes right from Lakme Fruit Blast to Ponds Activated Carbon Face Wash to Clean & Clear Face Wash, but honestly, had not experienced this bad! I have used it only for a few days until I bought a different face wash. And ever since I am using it as my pedicure wash. Khadi is one of my favorite herbal brands; I loved Khadi Triphala hair oil, Khadi Kesar Peeling Srcub Gel, Khadi Jasmine Massage Oil, but it breaks my heart when I see products like this. Overall, it’s a total waste of money while doing harm (SLES and preservatives) to my facial skin.

Why I like this Face Wash?:

• Cleans my skin.

Why I don’t like this Face Wash?:

• Contains SLES, preservatives.
• Smells like detergent powder.
• Leaves a slippery effect.
• Dries out my skin.
• Not an herbal product.
• Does not rinse off easily.

MABH Rating: 0.5/5. (Can be used in a crisis)

Do I Recommend?:

No.

Would I Repurchase?:

No!
