Ayur Herbals Sandal Face Pack Review and Photos

by Arshita

Hello dear friends! I am a fan of face pack powders, and after using Ayur Neem Face Pack, I was very keen to try Ayur’s Sandal pack also. So, today I will review Ayur Herbals Sandal Face Pack. Things has been changed since I last bought this face pack two months back, the cover has been changed and it is now called ‘New’ Ayur Herbals Sandal Face Pack. Anyways, here I present the details of this product.

Claims of the Face Pack:

An excellent face pack for normal and dry skin helps in curing local inflammations. It removes wrinkles and conditions dry and undernourished skin. It has an excellent cooling effect.


Price and quantity: 

Rs. 15 for 25 g, Rs. 40 for 100 g.

Key Ingredients: 

Fuller’s earth, Calamine powder, Starch Powder, Sandal (Santalum album) powder, Zinc oxide.

Usage Directions: 

Mix 1 tablespoon of Sandal Face Pack with Rose water to make a paste. Apply it evenly on the face & neck. Allow it to dry. Wash the face with cold water.

Shelf life:

36 months.

My Take on Ayur Herbals Sandal Face Pack:  

I was totally impressed with Ayur Neem Face Pack and my expectations were bit high for this one also. And, to be honest, it stood strong. I wish with the outer cartoon, the packaging of this face pack would also have been changed. This face pack is a mixture in form of powder, and it comes sealed in a plastic sachet (means need air tight jar or bottle to store it).

The smell is very herbal and sandalwood like pleasant. Unlike the neem face pack, this powder is very smooth and fine.I have combination skin, normal skin with T-zone oily, and under my eyes and on the cheeks I have dry patches. Some times in winter days, it becomes flaky. I have been using this face pack since one year and in winter I never forget to use this. And my dry patches are almost gone (coincidence?).

This face pack gives a cooling feel while applied on the skin. Because of the smooth and fine powder, the paste also becomes smooth and easy to apply on the skin. Applied with rose water, this face pack turns out very well. And my skin stays perfectly balanced in moisture after using this face pack; neither makes my skin oily nor dries it out. It also makes my skin soft and smooth.

I buy the 25 g pack always and it each pack gives me more or less ten times of uses. Thinking about buying a larger pack next time as my hands are little dry and it would be perfect for my manicure hand pack. Overall, I love this face pack. It cured my undernourished areas on my skin; it keeps my skin balanced in moisture without making it oily or dry. So, thumbs up from me!

Why I like this Face Pack?:

  • 100% herbal.
  • Pocket friendly.
  • Does what claims.
  • Gives an instant glow.
  • Stays balanced in moisture.
  • Does not dry out skin.
  • Cures dry patches.
  • Makes skin soft.
  • Small amount will go a long time.

Why I don’t like this Face Pack?:

  • Sachet packaging.

MABH Rating: 4.9/5


Do I Recommend?:

Yes, especially for dry skin.

Would I Repurchase?:

Yes, dry patches are barely there, but still.

Ayur Neem Face Pack Review and Photos

Good day dear ones!

Ayur is one the oldest Indian herbal brand. I honestly had no idea about this face pack until I saw it in a corner of a local mall. I thought of giving it a go. So, I bought it and here I share the details of this product.


Price and Quantity: 

Rs. 15 for 25 g, Rs. 40 for 100 g.

My Take:

I am using this face pack since one and half years. It comes in a plastic sachet in a powder form. So, I have to transfer it the moment I cut open the sachet. In the mix, dried particles of neem leaves can be seen. And it smells like other herbal products.

It is directed to use with water, but I use rose water for better result. Only one tablespoon or even half tablespoon of the powder is enough to make a thick paste. I let the paste stay on my face until it is completely dry. After applying, it might sting a little bit, but I don’t worry about that because I know it is because of the neem extracts. Anybody who has used organic neem paste on face would understand that! Then I wash it off with plain water, mildly scrubbing.

Now, the after effect details, it works on my skin like miracle. It literally makes my acnes vanish (even my Biotin-effected mountain like big acnes!). Sometimes when I don’t find time or feel like too lazy, I only make a tiny amount of paste and apply it right on my acnes and it does its wonder every single time. I use this religiously 3-4 times a month and every time I see my face instantly glowing and clear after using this pack. I love using this product so much that even before I finish one sachet, I get another one as a back-up.

I honestly have not experienced such effective face pack till now. I have normal skin with T-zone oily and this face pack is my HG Face Pack. I am also using Ayur Sandal Face Pack and will soon review that also.

 

PROS:

  • Does everything it claims.
  • Makes my pimples vanish.
  • Controls oil.
  • Fairly large quantity.
  • Very affordable price.
  • Herbal, no chemicals.
  • Makes skin soft and clear.

CONS:

  • Sachet packaging.
  • Stings a bit.

 

Rating: 5/5 (can overlook the cons for such effective product).

 

Do I Recommend?:

Yes!

 

Will I Purchase?:

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Ayur Herbals Almond Nourishing Cream Review

Hey All!

Ayur is a very known brand in India for the affordable range of cosmetics. Today I am reviewing one of their skin care product Almond Nourishing cream.We are aware of almond benefits to skin.When I first saw this cream at store, the word ‘Almond’ grabbed my attention. Though I am not a big fan of Ayur products,  I thought I should give it a try. Let us find out how it worked on my skin.

Price and Quantity :

Rs.65 for 80 ml

 

My Take:

This nourishing cream comes in a tub packaging. We have to dip our finger to take the product out.

I have been using this for quite some time and I am happy with the results. My skin feels moisturized and soft instantly after application.The texture of the cream is not too thick and gets well absorbed by the skin. It does not add glow when used on face but leaves an oily tint. I regularly use this cream after my home pedicure routine.

 

Before and After Applying:

It has a very mild fragrance which is not bothersome and doesn’t linger for a long time. My skin feels super soft with regular usage as night cream. Dry skinned girls should give it a try. I am sure you will love it.

 

PROS:

  • Skin feels soft and moisturised
  • Goodness of almond oil
  • Best night cream
  • Reasonably priced
  • Great for dry feet
  • Sturdy packaging

CONS:

  • I don’t prefer using this on face
  • Not advisable for summers
  • Tub packaging makes it unhygienic

 

Rating: 4/5

 

So Do I Suggest?:

Definitely.Though I don’t recommend it as a face cream, its works so good on hands and feet.

 

Will I Repurchase?:

Yes. I am already in my second tub.

Ayur Herbal Astringent with Aloe Vera Review

Hi All!

Dermatologists often recommend the use of astringent for acne. The main reason being, most astringents contain anti bacterial and anti septic properties. These properties help remove excess dirt and bacteria (both contributors to breakouts) from pores, as well as underlying skin, that are not normally removed through regular cleansing. Today, here is a review on Ayur Herbal Astringent which I have been using for years.

Price & Quantity:

Rs. 50 for 100ml
Rs. 75  for 200ml
Rs. 150 for 500 ml

 

Shelf Life: 

Best before 3 years from the date of manufacture.

My Experience:

This product comes in a semi-transparent white sturdy bottle with a screw cap. There is a tiny hole on the top for dabbing cotton with astringent. The astringent is bluish green in colour.

It has a very strong fragrance. Those with a sensitive nose will not like it. But it fades away soon after application.

The best way to use this astringent is before applying make up. First cleanse your face using your regular cleanser or face wash and then apply this toner and immediately moisturize your skin and then continue with your usual make up routine. This way your make up will last long. I would suggest its usage twice a day. I use it before going out for work and then at bedtime.

It also controls oil for around five hours and minimizes pores to a great extent. Just a few drops of this astringent is enough for the entire face. Just dab the cotton and never rub it on the skin. You should always follow up with a moisturizer after using this.

This astringent is perfect for summers. I would suggest dry skinned people to stay away from this as it will dry out the skin. It is only suitable for those having oily skin.

PROS:

  • Very cheap
  • Easily available
  • Didn’t break me out
  • Gives a cooling sensation
  • Minimizes pores
  • Keeps my skin oil free for around 5 hours
  • Very effective product for those having oily skin
  • Bottle is travel friendly. Does not leak.

CONS:

  • Fragrance is a bit strong
  • A big no for those having dry skin
  • Contains paraben

 

Rating: 4/5

 

Do I Recommend?:

Yes! A must for oily skinned people and great to use for summers. It is so cheap. A 200 ml bottle will last for at least 5 months.

 

Would I Repurchase?:

Of course! I keep on trying different toners and I end up coming back to this one!
