Kaya Skin Clinic: Insta-Brightening mask, Daily Use Sunscreen & Face Cleanser Review!

October 21, 2015 BY CyberKID 0 Comments

Our face needs a little pampering every now and then. What better way to indulge in some Kaya Skin Clinic products ! Every now and then I like to pamper my skin and Kaya Skin Clinic Products are among favorites when it comes to giving my skin a little extra care. I have spotted several outlets of Kaya Skin Clinic in Bangalore but never got the chance to pay a visit to any of them.

Today I’ll be sharing my experience after using Kaya Skin Clinic Insta Brightening Micro-Mask , Kaya Skin Clinic Daily Use Sunscreen and Kaya Skin Clinic face Cleanser With Brightening Beads.

Kaya Skin Clinic Daily Care Sunscreen Review:

Price: INR 680 for 50ml

Application: I apply it half an hour before going out in the sun and I reapply it after every face wash..

Packaging: It comes in a unique yet tricky bottle which seems like a bottle within a bottle . The outer bottle is a transparent one while inner one is an opaque one which gives an illusion of a bigger bottle!

My experience :The package says that the formula has been researched and developed by dermatologists. And I would like to go by it as this sunscreen did not break my skin even though my skin type is oily. The sunscreen gives my face a matte finish and slides smoothly on my skin. It is a good moisturizer but I hardly use sunscreens and this is going to stay with me for a while.

Kaya Brightening Micro Mask Review :

Price: INR 2980 for 30ml

Packaging: This comes in an opaque plastic bottle with a pump on the top which disperses the gel

My experience : It’s a kind of a face pack which I use before important occasions like parties and wedding attending's. Its colorless and light and spreads easily on the face. The only thing about is the smell! I hate it ! I leave it for 20 minutes and wash it off with tap water and the effect lasts for about 3-4 hours max. After applying it the skin on my face felt stretchy and thick. I found my face to be soft and supple once I washed off the mask! Best to remove dullness and other impurities from my face and neck!

Kaya Skin Clinic Fairness Face Cleanser Review:

Price : INR350 for 100ml

Packaging : Comes in tube and reminds me of ponds facewash packaging! This doesn’t come with a dispenser but works out like other facewashes. It is easy to remove & hygienic to carry everyday in my bag.

Application: Dispense one pump on your finger tips and slowly cover your face with rubbing it in circular motions. Gently wash it off with water later.

My experience : Unlike other products from Kaya this one is priced reasonably while others cost me a fortune . I used this as a facewash and I like that it is mildly scented but it did not seem effective to remove blackheads and acne. I found my face fresh and soft after using this. It did unclog my pores and removed dirt from my face leaving my face soft and supple.

BlingSparkle’s final verdict:

These were my first products I used from the brand kaya Skin Clinic and found that they manufacture quality products but I have my complaints. They are too pricey even for something that is dermatologically tested! I loved the fairness cleanser and the micro mask and I recommend it to those who are looking for a good face pack during the wedding preparations.

Until next time

Love

anti ageing Beauty

Fuschia Arabian Jasmine Anti-ageing Night Cream Review and Swatch

May 03, 2015 BY CyberKID 0 Comments

I read a lot of beauty blogs and i have deep respect for bloggers who religiously put up empties post regularly. I can never do it because i seem to take ages (more like forever) to finish products or they just get expired and unfit for use . But miracle happened when i with the Loreal night cream (Review here) . I purchased this cream on a discount and this was expiring in 3 months so i decided to use only this religiously every night and try to finish it before expiry. The result well i finished this cream in 2 months flat!

I had purchased the Loreal Night cream as an anti aging care and after this cream finished i decided to finally start with anti ageing regime and the Fuschia Arabian Jasmine Anti-ageing Night Cream landed at my door step at an apt time. Now this Fuschia cream has replaced the loreal night cream and i have been using this cream for more than a month now and here i present to you my experience with it.

You cant avoid ageing but you can definitely delay it . Iam 25 and most skin experts say 25 is the right time to start anti anti ageing regime and i have decided to start early and this is my first anti ageing cream.

Price: 675 for 50 gms
Shelf life: 30 months
Ingredients : Jasmine Oil, Olive Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Kokum Butter, Aloe Vera, Vitamin E and Biostine HP.

Packaged beautifully in a transparent tub with a screw cap the Fuschia Arabian Jasmine Anti-ageing Night Cream comes with 3 cute paper cards which has details like ingredients, how to use and directions to use printed on it. all the printed cards and tub is put in a cute chiffon bag which makes for a great gift . The packaging is different and adds to the natural organic feel but the instructions could easily be lost this way . i wish the instruction labels were punched and attched to the neck og the bottle so we wouldn't loose it that soon.
The the anti ageing cream is whitish cream in colour with thick consistency and tiny granules. Ithas subtle jasmine fragrance which lingers on for a while and has a calming effect at night . The cream though thick gets easily absorbed into skin with light massaging and leaves my face soft and supple without even a hint of greasy or stickiness.
The results are pretty instant and just after about 2 weeks of use my skin feels bright and tighter . every morning i wake up to soft and hydrated glowing skin and even my pigmentation has improved. About the anti ageing thing i cant really comment much because i dont have any signs of ageing to start with. But overall this is a nice night cream which people of all ages can try.

The cream of course is a pricey affair at 675 INR but its is natural and paraben free so I don't mind paying extra also for the results it provides the price is totally worth it. Also, I need just a little bit of cream to cover my entire face and after a months use half the tub still remains. So a tub will easily last you 2 months.
I do wish this came in a more hygienic packaging like a tube or a bottle with nozzle.

The Goods:

Subtle jasmine fragrance which lingers for a while
Makes skin soft , supple and hydrates
100% Natural, SLS and Paraben free
Thick creamy texture which isnt greasy or sticky
cute packaging with small labels, chiffon bag and tub.
Handmade
Brightens skin and repairs cells

The Bads:

The tub packaging in unhygienic
Pricey (but it is natural and works great on my skin so justified )
Available only online

BlingSparkle Rating: ★★★★/5

Final Verdict: I am totally loving my skin these days all thanks to the Fuschia Arabian Jasmine Anti-ageing Night Cream. If you love natural and organic stuff this cream is your best night cream / anti ageing cream.

Beauty Day cream

L’Oreal Paris White Perfect Night Cream & Day Cream (SPF17 PA++) Review

January 25, 2015 BY CyberKID 0 Comments

I am on the wrong side of 25 and many people suggest anti ageing creams should be started at 25 , I decided to incorporate a night cream and not go the anti ageing routine just yet. I came across this L’Oreal Paris White Perfect Fairness Revealing soothing night cream (Melanin-vanish +Tourmaline) and this range had a day cream too so I brought both of them
Read on to know how the duo fared on me

Price and Quantity:
L’Oreal Paris White Perfect Fairness Control Moisturizing Day Cream: 650/- INR for 50ml

L’Oreal Paris White Perfect Fairness Revealing Soothing Night Cream: 650/- INR for 50ml

Ingredients:

What L’Oreal Paris says:

Packaging:

Both the White Perfect creams come in transparent glass jars and screw caps in blue. The packaging is sturdy but not travel friendly as the jars are of glass and so are quite heavy.

L’Oreal Paris White Perfect Fairness Revealing Soothing Night Cream : The Night cream is very has a light violet tint to it and light fragrance which I absolutely love.The texture is velvety light and gets absorbed into skin in seconds leaving my skin hydrated and refreshed. I love how after a long tiring day this cream soothes my face. It does not leave a greasy feeling and when I wake up my skin is soft and supple . On some days when the winters get too harsh in bangalore and my face gets chapped this cream kind of burns a bit on my face. The burning may be due to overload of chemicals and at such times i rely on my trusted nivea to moisturize me. But other than that Iam loving this cream till now and as my first night cream it has fared well .

L’Oreal Paris White Perfect Fairness Control Moisturizing Day Cream: The day cream is pure white in colour and the texture is thick. It spreads easily on skin despite being very thick . My skin absorb this cream quickly with no white cast or greasy feeling . But i have to make sure i use just the right quantity as when i use more than required cream iam left looking a bit whitish which i then blend of using a sponge. It has an SPF 17 which isnt enough but is of great help in winters and summers also when iam staying indoors with curtains open. I love how this cream adds glow to my face and it kind of evens out my skin tones so these days I use only this on my skin and skip the BB creams and foundations . My skin looks a lot more soft and supple these days and I cant be any more happier.

(swatch : White perfect day cream (top) and White perfect night cream (below))

I have been using both these creams for 2 months now and I have noticed a visible reduction of spots and tan along with soft and supple skin. At 650 each these creams are an expensive deal and other cons include the unhygienic tub packaging and the heavy glass tubs. But despite these cons iam impressed with both these creams as they do their job well.

BlingSparkle Rating: ★★★★/5

Will I repurchase? These creams definitely work for me but iam going to try more options from lakme and Olay and then return back it all else fails. This is my first night cream so I am open to experimenting.
