Patanjali Body Ubtan Review

9 Replies

Ubtans hold a special position in Indian weddings. Almost all Indian weddings entail an elaborate ceremony of ubtan application followed by singing and dancing as popularised by movies. And most of us would still have fond memories of a wedding being played in our mind right now. Isn’t it?

Coming to movies, do you have any favorite wedding song that compels you to let your hair down and showcase your latkas, jhatkas and thumkas? If yes, let us know through the ‘comments section’. Mine at the moment is ‘Banno tera swagger’ from Tanu weds Manu Returns!

Anyway, now that the topic is ‘ubtans’, So today I am going to review the body ubtan that I bought from a Patanjali store in my neighbourhood.

Patanjali Herbal Henna Review

10 Replies

Hello lovely people!

I have already mentioned the paramount importance of henna in my hair care routine. Dried and grounded henna is indeed the best because it is absolutely free from all kinds of preservatives and colorants, but for a lazy soul like me, drying the henna leaves and grinding them is indeed a monotonous task and that is where these ready-made henna powders come to rescue.

I have been using Nupur henna powder since the time I started applying henna to my hair and it has never given me a chance to complain. I use henna solely for conditioning and Nupur henna has never disappointed me in that respect! It makes my hair very silky.

I picked Patanjali henna just for the sake of trying it as the indigenous brand has never disappointed me. And they are so economical that you can pick lots and lots of products and the price would hardly hurt your pocket.

Price : Rs 35 for 100 g; Buy : Amazon.in

 

My Views:

This henna powder comes in a simple plastic packaging with ingredients, manufacturing date and directions of usage printed on it. It claims to contain around 9 herbs besides henna which include neem, gooseberry, tea leaves etc.

The powder is fine textured, dark green in color and smells like dried henna leaves, a bit different from the Nupur henna powder. Nupur henna has a slight pleasant smell than this one. It is also stated on the pack that you have to use it within 180 days once you have opened the pack.

Patanjali Aloe Vera Gel Review

13 Replies

Hello everyone!

Today I am going to review the first product I brought from Patanjali. Aloe vera gel is my favourite moisturizer ever. But unfortunately, pure aloe (the homemade version!) gave me rashes so many times that I had to look for processed ones. This is my second brand when it comes to Aloe vera. Let’s see how this one fared. Shall we.?

Patanjali Saundarya Face Wash Review

20 Replies

Hello everyone!

Patanjali is a well known herbal brand. In my hunt of sls free face wash or cleanser I came upon this one after reading few reviews on it. It started giving me nightmares though. Please read further.

Price and Quantity:

Rs. 60 for 60 gm

My Take:

This face pack comes in a boring white plastic tube with a flip top cap. It’s not at all attractive. The cap is really fit. That’s a good and a bad thing because no leaks and travel friendly but it broke my nails twice. The opening is small so no need for excess amount headaches. It fits easily in a small purse.

The fragrance is mild and citrusy. It doesn’t linger after washing so easy on sensitive noses as well.
This cleanser has the consistency of a cream and quite thick. You need good force to get it out of the tube. It is soft and creamy and spreads really well and lathers a lot. A tiny pea sized amount is enough to cover up face so the bottle lasts really long. It washes away without any slippery feel and gives a great glow to your face like you have just used a face pack.

This face wash very good in removing dirt and oil. It removes makeup easily as well and doesn’t clog pores. It kind of made my skin dry but nothing a moisturizer can’t handle. Dry skinned people may find it a lot drying. After some time though, I started sweating a lot and my face looked as if I used some spray or something. Even though sls is not good, I don’t like the sound of neutral detergents. They are used in dishwashers so I am scared at how much my skin can bear. Sensitive people please stay away from this one. I heard two of my friends who have oily skin raving a lot about this so I think you can give it a try.

 

Why I like?:

  • Good herbal brand
  • Nice non lingering fragrance
  • Removes dirt and oil
  • No slippery feeling
  • Made out of so many good ingredients
  • Gives an amazing face pack glow
  • Dead cheap

 

Why I don’t like?:

  • Cap is an enemy to nails. (Arshita please take care of your beautiful nails if you are using this :) we need more nail arts from you)
  • Dries out skin a bit
  • Face sweats like hell after sometime. I don’t know how much oil it can control since I don’t have any such problems
  • Neutral detergent haunts me
  • Availability

 

Rating: 3 /5

 

Do I Recommend?:

Yes! Surely for people with oily skin and combination skin maybe. Give it a try.

 

Would I Repurchase?:

Nope. My nightmares with neutral detergents need to stop. I already switched to pears and I love it. My mom has oily skin too and found it okay. She is 46 so i suggested stopping it since drying skin leads to more wrinkles.
