Yardley London English Lavender Hair Cream Review

4 Replies

Hey, sweeties!

Yardley is one of my favorite foreign brands. The moment I hear Yardley – it is its body lotion that comes to my mind. It has got an amazing smell, isn’t it? This hair cream was bought to me by my mom when she went to UAE recently. And that was the first time I got to realize that Yardley do produce hair creams as well!

I am NOT a frequent user of hair creams, but at times my hair is so difficult to manage, I apply some hair cream and I am ready to go. My brother is so fond of hair gels even at the age of 9, and instead of buying gels for him, we make him use hair creams!

Yardley London English Rose Refreshing Facial Cleanser Review

I have been using Pears face wash for so many years now. I completely love Pears for its mildness and freshness. When I saw this Yardley product in an online shopping site I was tempted to buy it for two reasons. The first one being ‘Gentle Cleanser’ and secondly the ‘English Rose’. I wanted to try Rose scented cosmetics. And moreover this face wash comes in a lovely attractive pink coloured tube :) Now, lets see the detailed review.

Yardley English Rose Luxurious Facial Foam Review

6 Replies

by Juthika

Hi friends!
I am back with my second review and this time it is a luxurious facial foam from Yardley London. Till some time back I had known Yardley London only for their perfumed sprays, a beautiful actress carrying it everywhere and calling it my Yardley in the commercial that everyone of us must have seen. So when I got to see their range of facial foam I got happy as I recalled that television commercial and I wanted to buy it and flaunt it like her. Silly me!

Product Description:

This anti oxidant packed energizing face wash cleanses intensively to remove deep – seated impurities and oiliness. The citrus extracts of grapefruit refresh and balance the skin to make it glowing and toned. Leaving it clean, revitalized and sensuously fragrant with Yardley’s romantic English rose. For combination to oily skin.


Ingredients:



Price and quantity: 

Rs. 70 for 50 gm

Shelf Life:

Best before 24 months from the date of manufacture.

My Take on Yardley English Rose Luxurious Facial Foam:

First of all girls this is my daughter’s Holy Grail face wash and let me tell you she has combination skin which gets oily in summers and dry in winters but her oily T-zone has no respite in any season. She keeps looking for face washes made for her skin type but we all know most companies make products suited for oily, normal or dry skin types.

Its so difficult for combination skinned beauties to decide whether to opt for the products formulated for dry skin or for the oily ones as they always lay in between. So what caught her attention was the tagline combination to oily skin. She was super happy to have found this.

The consistency of Yardley London is like a face cream not runny at all. It comes packed in a classy tube making extraction hygienic as well as easy and also it does not let you waste the facial foam. As per directions one needs to moisten face and squeeze a little amount onto palm and it is to be massaged gently over face and neck and then washed off and pat dry.

Trust me the quantity required is so less that in the picture where I have shown how this facial foam looks like, that amount will be enough to clean your whole face twice. It foams very little which may disappoint some of you and after washing off it does not make the skin stretchy at all. Its formulated for deep cleansing and does its job very effectively. Lazy people like me might even forget that it needs to be followed up with a moisturizer as it does not make the skin dry as I said before. And yes before I forget it smells like roses. How much we love those red flowers!

To sum up with the review one word would do justice here and that’s – excellent  because it does what its supposed to do and has no false claims too. This is a good face wash if you want that matt look on your face for 5-6 hours provided it is followed with a water based moisturizer.

Why I like this Face Wash?:

  • Cleanses really well
  • Very reasonable price
  • A little goes a long way; one tube will last 2 months or even more
  • Separate variant available for dry skinned people
  • No stretchy feeling
  • No extra effort required to wash it off.
  • No leakage and easy to carry around
  • Smells like roses
  • Easily available

Why I don’t like this Face Wash?:

  • Does not foam much
  • Don’t know if it can remove water proof make up

MABH Rating: 4.9/5 (-1 for nothing is perfect you know )

Final Recommendation:

Yes I would definitely recommend this to everyone with combination to oily skin to get that oil free face for hours and fits into your budget too. Hope you find my review helpful. Thank you for reading!

Yardley London Jasmine Luxury Soap Review

8 Replies

by Arpita

Hello Beauties!

Today we will focus on a product by Yardley London! It is the jasmine Luxury Soap. When I saw this super affordable soap from, I could not stop myself from buying it!

Price and Quantity: 

Rs. 45 for 100 g

 

My Take:

This soap comes in an attractive cardboard box with all details printed on it. The soap is wrapped up in another waxy paper-wrap placed inside the box.

This soap is milky white in color. This soap smells like fresh jasmine flowers- extremely natural! I am sure; people who love the fragrance of Jasmine flowers will love this soap. However, the fragrance does not linger onto the skin, which is a con. As soon as you step out of the washroom, the fragrance disappears. It glides on easily onto the body and lathers nicely. It removes all dirt and oil from the body making it smooth and soft. It dries out the skin a bit which may be a problem for those with dry skin. It will be best suited for those with oily skin.

The soap does not melt like crazy at all. In fact, if used properly, it will last for like 20+ days too! It lathers really nicely and cleans the body really well without leaving any slippery or gooey feel. It makes the skin squeaky clean and gets washed away pretty easily! :)

Overall, the soap does its job nicely. One advice- If you do not like Jasmine flowers, then stay away from this! Thus, a good body butter or body cream is necessary.

 

PROS:

  • Affordable
  • Attractive Packaging
  • Cleans the skin nicely
  • Makes the skin smooth and soft
  • Fragrance is really fresh and seems natural
  • Lathers nicely
  • Shelf life is good
  • Does not melt like crazy

CONS:

  • Fragrance does not linger on
  • Dries out the skin a bit (This problem can be solved by using a good body cream/butter)

 

Rating: 4/5


Final Verdict: 

If you like the fragrance of fresh jasmine Flowers, then this is a must buy for you! I completely recommend it to all Jasmine lovers. I personally will not repurchase this, as I do not like the fragrance of Jasmine flowers…There are a lot of better soaps out in the market.

My love for body sprays continues.. A few months ago, I got this Body Spray. My first reaction when I smelled it was ‘It’s so clean and fresh like that of beautiful roses in a garden’ After using it for quite a long time, it has become half of its original quantity but still the fragrance is just the same – elegant and feminine! Let us see how it worked for me.

Ingredients:

My Take:

Packaging: Yardley always has elegant packaging and this deodorant body spray is no exception. It comes in a very feminine pink tin pack with the image of a beautiful rose printed on it. It looks aristocratic and the packaging is very stylish. It is travel friendly though it is long but it is very compact. The cap fits tightly and perfectly too. To take out the spray from the bottle, you do not need to keep on pressing the nozzle. Light pressure is enough to take out the spray liquid.

Fragrance: The smell is very fresh, light and royal. It smells exactly as fresh roses. The fragrance is very clean and is perfect for daily wear. It provides you a new energy and the fragrance stays on throughout the day, though it becomes faint as time passes by. The smell is my personal preference. Please first check the fragrance yourself before you buy it 

Quality: The quality of this product is so nice that it does not sting my under arm area. Though it may slightly drykjijhi out your underarm area as it contains alcohol but I feel quite comfortable. However, it may irritate super sensitive skin types.

Animal testing: Yardley London English Rose Refreshing Deodorant Body Spray has not been tested on animals and is an ozone-friendly product.
