Dr batras natural milk review
December 30, 20140 Comments
Price: Rs.100/- 
Quantity: 100 ml
Shelf life: 2 years from Manufacture

What the brand says:
Deep-pore cleansing milk enriched with nature's wonder herbs - Echinacea and Chamomile
  • This natural cleansing milk gently cleanses the skin leaving it clear and refreshed
  • Chamomile extracts improve the texture and elasticity of the skin
  • Soapnut, with its natural cleansing properties, gently removes make-up, dirt and grime from the skin
  • Echinacea, with its natural antiseptic properties, helps in keeping skin healthy
Availability: Available in all their clinics. Check out this page for more.

My Experience:
I don't use makeup removers much. It is always baby oil or baby wipes for me. But lately my eyes skin has become extra sensitive and I can't rub my eyes with oil, it has become painful and not satisfactory! This cleansing milk by Dr Batras is my first makeup remover and a favorite at that!
The best thing about this cleansing milk is that it does not give you the feel that you are using chemicals but instead it gives you the feel of using a natural product... a thicker version of milk I would say!
It does its job nicely, removing all the dirt from my skin without hurting it or letting it loose it's moisture. I use it whenever I am back from an outing too...Bangalore pollution you know!
It has never given me skin irritation or any other negative sign, its all smooth and butter-like to my skin. 

As mentioned above, this wonderful cleansing milk contains Echniacea, known for its antiseptic properties. It also contains chamomile. So it's super hydrating  and effective at the same time!

I haven't given a swatch here coz it's perfectly like milk...A thicker version of it!!
The Pros:
*Hydrating
*Removes makeup/dust/impurities from skin
*Smell is good and not overpowering
*Leaves your skin smooth
*Close to natural
*Very Affordable
*Doesn't leave skin dry
*Packaging is sturdy
The Cons:
*Very runny formula
*Waterproof makeup doesn't budge unless you use it 2-3 times!

All in all it's a wonderful cleanser which acts effectively without upsetting your skin. You really need to give it a try!

Dr Batra's Skin Toner Review
August 01, 20140 Comments
If you too have combination skin tone like me, a toner is a must in your beauty regime! It cleanses skin, hydrates it and gives a nutrient rich glow. I use it on my bare skin before doing any makeup. 
I am a 'NO-Alcoholic' person in and out so you can guess that my choice of toners are always alcohol free.
Today I'll be reviewing a wonderful new toner in the market - Dr Batra's toner with Echinacea and green tea. If you are wondering what 'echinacea' means, it's a flower with herbal qualities.
The first time I used it, I was like whoa! "This feels so cool man!" and after using it a couple of times, i am convinced that it's one of the best toner which refreshed and recharges my skin instantly!

 Dr Batra's Skin toner comes in a transparent, see through bottle with a flip flop opening. While I am usually comfortable with flip flop cans, I really think bottling up a liquid toner in it was not a good option. This is the only con I felt about the product.

The Yays:
*Non-Alcoholic
*Hydrates Skin
*Removes excess oil
*Soothes and smooths
*Doesn't irritate skin
*No breakouts
*Refreshes and recharges!
*A little goes a long way
*Cleanses thoroughly.

The Nays:
*Because of the packaging, not travel friendly.
Price: 100 Rs for 100ml

Smells Like: Rose water grounded with fresh leaves! The scent is mild and lovely!

As directed by the back note of the container, I use the toner after cleansing my face with cleansing milk from the same brand( I love it! Review coming up soon!)
As soon as I apply a few drops of it on my face, there's a cooling sensation and after a couple of minutes my skin is all smooth and moisture-laden! The best part - it's free from excess of oil on my face!

All in all, this is a toner which truly works, and given the price, I think it's a steal! If you are in the look out for a good toner than I totally recommend this one to you. Really does what its made for!

Didn't feel the necessity to give a swatch as it is almost similar to water.

TIP: Dab onto a cotton ball and apply on face or you can also use a clean makeup wedge! Do not rinse with water after application!

Bling Sparkle Rating: 4/5

Stay pretty,

Dr Batra’s Intense Moisturizing cream Review
August 01, 20140 Comments

Moisturizers are an important part of my daily skin care routine and more so since I have dry flaky skin. So, when Dr Batras skin care range arrived I quickly grabbed the moisturizing cream leaving the other stuff for my sisters to review . So lets see how this cream fared on me.
Price: 350 INR for 100g
Shelf Life: 24 months
Ingredients
20140720_114611
Product Claims :
  • Excellent moisture balance
  • Smooth feel to the skin
  • Soothing and youthful look to the skin
  • Protection against environmental pollutants

Packaging : Dr.Batra's Intense Moisturizing Cream comes in a white tub type packaging with a screw cap having the signature Dr Batras logo on top. The packaging is travel friendly as the tub shuts tight with no chance of leakages.
Dr.Batra's Intense Moisturizing Cream is pure white  and looks very thick in the tub while in reality it is very light weight having thin creamy consistency, this could be because it has  an aqua base.
The cream blends easily into skin leaving skin soft, supple and refreshed giving a semi matte non greasy finish. It fares well on my dry skin hydrating it, leaving behind a very cooling sensation. It is an ideal cream to use in this harsh monsoon-winter weather for my skin as it helps cure dry flakes too. Iam loving every bit of this moisturizer and since it gives a non shiny matte finish aim even using it as a make up base sometimes.
Dr.Batra's Intense Moisturizing Cream is very soothing and I apply it liberally around my eyes after long hours of laptop use and it provides much need relief. So you can use this as a night cream also . It comes with an aqua base so using it like a body lotion is also easy. Ive applied it on rough patches on my elbows and knees and it works nicely even there.
The cream also claims of fighting pollution, but I have no idea of it because never stepped out of house with moisturizer alone.
The cream has a mild fragrance which takes a little time to fade away post application. This isn't a problem for me but some sensitive noses may find it a wee bit strong.
Pros:
  • Moisturizes and hydrates nicely
  • Aqua base
  • Small compact travel friendly packaging
  • Non greasy Matte finish
  • Soothing and cooling sensation
  • Absorbs into skin in a jiffy
  • Pleasing fragrance
Cons:
  • Availability might be an issue
  • The price is a bit on the higher side
  • Unhygienic tub packaging
BlingSparkle Rating : ★★★★/5
This is the first product I have tried from Dr Batras and I will soon be trying more of their products, especially their yummy facewash. Have you tried any of thir products yet? Any recommendation?
