Review : AN EXCELLENT LIP BALM FROM THE INSTAGRAM STORE ORGANIC _HOMEMADE _MAKEUP



            Using lip balm is an important part of keeping your lips healthy. It's true that only soft and smooth lips could be pretty and adorable. And to get that use lip balm twice a day, after a bath and before going to bed. In the morning as you have  stepped out of your home, the wind , sun , pollution suck out the moisture of your lips, resulting in damaged , cracked and chapped lips. So in order to protect your lips from all these environmental hazards, apply a good lip balm before going out of your home.  Include a lip balm in your night beauty ritual to give your lips nourishment. Now you must be thinking of buying one. Before getting into a store, once give a look here. 

                         

THE BRAND : ORGANIC _HOMEMADE _MAKEUP

Those who are regular visitors of my blog may know that I am die hard fan of natural, organic and cruelty-free products. Whenever I buy any beauty and make-up products, go for some natural. So, one day I was in a mood to buy some makeup products and discovered an amazing page on Instagram. This superb page is @organic_homemade_makeup . They manufacture natural homemade and skin friendly beauty products. And as I saw them, I immediately jumped into the DM to order some , one of which is a lip balm. Now let me tell you about my experiences about it so that you can get an idea and buy it.

PACKAGING :

The lip balm comes in a tiny transparent plastic jar with a screw cap. It has a dark brown colour with golden undertone.

  
 

TEXTURE :

The lip balm has a light non-greasy  gel like texture with nanogranules which soothes the lips, leaves them soft and hydrated and gently removes dead skin cells, adding a unique gloss. It's free from harmful chemicals and fragrance-free. So the beauties with super sensitive skin need not worry about using it. The texture is smooth and feels very natural.

PRICE : 

It's not very costly also . You can get it only for INR 145.

INGREDIENTS :

No ingredients list can be found on the package.

MY EXPERIENCE :

I always use lip balm twice daily , in the morning as a lip scrub to wipe off dead cells to make my lips ready for my matte lipsticks and at night apply a thick layer and go to bed. In the morning, I apply a thin layer and rub with very soft hand only for few seconds, otherwise, the delicate skin of lips will get damaged and will lead to soreness and inflammations. The granules are not at all coarse and very little amount of the product is needed. I wash it off . This I do for twice a week only. Rest of the days I use it only as a balm. As I apply it, the balm provides instant relief for my dry lips. It stays on for quite a long time. It doesn't melt away easily and at the same time, I don't feel heavy on my lips. After one week of using , I can feel my lips amazingly soft and plump and all the dry peels got scrubbed away. It removes all impurities, improving the blood circulation. And as a result, I am too happy, seeing my pigmented lips getting pink gradually .


BY RATING : 

I am giving this amazing stuff 4.5/5. As I use it totally unaware of the ingredients. Though I think the ingredients must be very good ones as it doesn't show any sensitivity on my super sensitive lips and the feeling is quite natural.


Do you want to know I am going to repurchase or not?  Yeah, I must repurchase it as I will finish this and I have become a lifetime buyer of the wonderful stuff. And I strongly recommend you to visit the page on Instagram and order . And the person behind the store is also very nice. She is always there for you to reply any of your queries. So what are you waiting for? Go and grab it and start using and share your experiences here in the comment section.


SO THIS MUCH FOR NOW. THANKS FOR READING. STAY TUNED. MORE ARE COMING. I HAVE BOUGHT MANY MORE PRODUCTS FROM THE STORE AND I AM SO HAPPY USING THEM THAT I WANT TO LET YOU KNOW ABOUT THEM ALSO. BYE. HAPPY SHOPPING. 💕 💖 ❤ 💞

A Review : Brihans Green Leaf Foot Care Cream With Aloe Vera

 




               We always take care of our skin and hair honestly, but the most important part of our body, the feet are neglected the most. We all tend to take our feet for granted. Proper footcare is important for everyone, not because they look nicer, but it will make you physically and emotionally healthy. With the proper care you will get rid of many problems, such as Cracked Heels, Dry Skin, Athletes foot and it will also prevent aching and fatigue to your feet. You don't need an expensive spa treatment to take care of your feet. Spending a few minutes a day on footcare and choosing the right shoes can keep you free from all those problems. Wash your feet everyday with warm water or you can go for a foot bath by soaking your feet in warm water, mixed with any liquid soap. Scrubbing once in a week is also effective for removing dead cells . But the most important part of the footcare is to moisturise your feet twice daily with a good foot cream . Before buying a footcream, you should ensure that the cream should contain the ingredients those help the healing process for dry and cracked feet and add deep hydration and nourishment to the feet to give you relief. Recently, I have come across one such a foot cream , sent to me by Brihans Natural Products Ltd.  It's green leaf foot cream with aloe vera gel and kokum butter as its key ingredients. Let me share you my experiences about the cream so that you can have a clear idea about what to buy and why.

                                                     

                            



GREEN LEAF FOOT CARE CREAM :

As we know that Brihans Natural Products Ltd aim at replacing the chemical active ingredients , used in many skincare and haircare products with 100% natural active ingredients to give their consumers naturally beautiful and healthy skin and hair. Green Leaf Foot Care Cream also contains natural ingredients like aloe vera and kokum butter which are known for their healing and moisurising properties on dry and damaged skin. As the brand claims that this foot cream rehydrates skin , removes the dead tissues and repairs the basal skin layer , and even guards against excessive itching and inflammations. Aloe Vera repairs the cracked heels, protects feet from fungus infection, sooths the sore feet and removes odour. Where kokum butter promotes regeneration of the skin, heals fissures on the feet , helps nail growth, moisturises cuticles and makes the feet soft.



ACTIVE INGREDIENTS :

Aloe vera extract, Tea-tree-oil, Kokum butter.


               


PACKAGING : 

The product has come in a white round shaped plastic tub that gives it a smart and cute look. The white cream is thick textured, but not sticky or greasy. You can apply it very easily and right after the application it is absorbed into the skin. Green Leaf Foot Care Cream has a gentle and sweet flowery smell which is very refreshing.

HOW TO USE 👈 

Before applying the foot cream, you must clean your feet with lukewarm water , because dirty feet can cause serious infections. Pat dry. Now apply sufficient quantity twice daily , immediately after bath and before going to bed. You can use it as foot massage cream, if you go pedicure at home.


PRICE :

The 50 gms tub costs 80 rupees. I must say it's really cheap.


                    


MY EXPERIENCE :

If you ask me how I feel, my answer is the cream is simply superb. I apply it twice daily and have been using it for about one month. The skin of my feet was too dry . It has now become soft and smooth and I feel the hydration the whole day. Honestly speaking, I don't have cracks on my feet. So I can't say how it will work on them. But as the foot cream has softened my skin, I can understand that it will also be benefitted to the cracked heels.  I will repurchase it after finishing this one  and strongly recommend you to buy the green leaf foot cream. To buy go to :
                            Flipkart
                            Amazon
                            Shopping India Times

BY RATING : I'll give Brihans green leaf foot cream 5/5 stars , as I haven't seen any con in it.

Till then bye friends. Stay tuned for next reviews. Happy shopping. 💕💖

Revive Your Mind And Spirit With The Nature's Co Geranium and Palmarosa Harmony Essential oil



 Essential oils have profound effects on our body, mind and emotions. They lift or relax our mind, soothe our emotions, relieve tension and improve concentration. If the essential oils are used in diffusers they can maximize all these benefits as the diffusers can distribute the essential oil molecules in the air more effectively. Creating an atmosphere of peace and harmony. One such diffuser oil, 'Geranium and Palmarosa Harmony essential oil' has been sent by The Nature's Co to write a review on it.


                                              


Before stepping into the review I want to say some words about the brand. The Nature's Co is known for using the best natural ingredients from across the globe. All their products are absolutely environment-friendly, vegan-friendly and certified by PETA as cruelty-free.


                         


Geranium and Palmarosa Harmony essential oil :

  Geranium oil and Palmarosa oil seem to complement each other if they are blended in a proper way, leaving you with a relaxed feeling and creating a perfect harmony in the atmosphere. Geranium oil has a light floral fragrance that revives the senses, maintains emotional balance, may relieve the symptoms of anxiety, depression or insecurity can be seen especially in the middle-aged women. On the other hand Palmarosa oil with its gentle and mild lemony rose fragrance calms and uplifts mind and mood, releases anger, provides comfort and support for feminine cycles. It also can offer to relieve from the feeling of insecurity, grief or defensiveness.


Price: This 10-ml container costs INR 495.


How To Use :

The brand advises to add 5 drops of oil with two teaspoons of water to the oil burner and let it diffuse. But more or less can be added according to the fragrance desired. But I can share you some other effective uses. They are :-

1. Add 7 to 8 drops in a teaspoon of carrier oil (I used Grapeseed oil) to bath water, to promote balance and enhance relaxation.

2. Add 2-3 drops to the warm water to take a foot bath. This removes fatigue, tension and provides rest to the tired feet, promoting a deep sleep at night.

3. Add 2-3 drops with 1 teaspoon water or with any other essential oil (I used Lavender oil) and inhale directly to reduce stress and to rejuvenate body, mind and spirit. Or you can use it as a perfume to get the whole day relaxation and refreshment.

4. Add it to your body massage oil (I used Sweet Almond oil) to get relieved mood and emotions.


My Experiences :

I can feel now your eager ears to know my experiences after using the oil in all these ways. I used the oil in my diffuser, put a dim light on and started meditation, with a soft music being played on my sound system. And the result was amazing. I saw myself with a relaxed and de-stressed mind and spirit and an 8-hourly deep sleep. I have been using the oil as a perfume since I have received it and I have been seeing myself working with full potential. As I took bath mixing with my bath water I got a really wonderful result. In short, this oil is really worth buying and shows results as the brand claims. I must repurchase for my healthy living and strongly recommend you to buy it.


BY Rating : I'll give 5/5 stars, as I did not feel any negative point in it.

Special Note:

When you use the essential oil on your body, please do a patch test before using. The diffuser essential oils being extremely potent could cause sensitivity to someone.
