Dove Beauty Moisture Foaming Facial Cleanser (product review)

be beautiful with punam

"Dove"- for me dove is always something moisturizing. Actually i like dove products but i am not a huge fan of its products . Especially the one we get in our Indian market, since i have tried few from Canada. This one is also from the few products that my hubby got from Canada..We also get one facial foaming face wash in India  with the same name , but i think its different.This a cleanser to me rather than a face wash.

My experience:

Packaging : Simple and sturdy packaging with easy to use flip flop cap.

Texture: Thick and creamy. It says its foaming but its not.It doesn't lather at all..When i apply this i feel i am applying a very light weight moisturizer on my face.It is thick but soft and gel cream like.

Result:

be beautiful with punam

It spreads easily in to skin .. just like any cream cleanser .. but its not as creamy .. it feels to skin something like soft gel or balm cleanser.It take off all the dirt and make up very easily.

The best part is it leaves a lovely glow behind even after rinsing off face with water.

Never leaves skin dry nor oily/greasy.

I just love it for this reason , generally cream cleanser leaves a creamy greasy feeling behind but it doesn't. It does give soft skin  but not oily /greasy.

This will work for all skin type because it maintains moisture very nicely , even if i wash my face with foaming face wash after using this my skin never felt stretched or dry.

Never broke out my oily acne prone skin.

Since i am using it i can see lovely glow on my skin..

It can be used as a cleanser,make up remover or as a face wash.Though it doesn't lather but still removes all the dirt.

I couldn't see any con in it .. other than its availability for we Indians and why its called foaming cleanser  it doesn't lather..

Overall its was a great experience to use something like this. I have been missing this clear and glowing skin from long. I think my skin is really improving since i have started using some really good products like kiehls face wash and this cleanser.I wish i could find it somewhere in India or online.

Dove Deep Moisture Day And Night Cream (product review)

be beautiful with punam

My husband visited Canada few months back and he got some cosmetics for me...
he did this without asking my needs... well still the things he got were nice.
This moisturizer combo of day and night cream by dove also belongs to that shopping...
Two of them will last for more than at least two months.

I have used them individually and as a combo as well...

Ingredients:
Day Cream

Night cream:

be beautiful with punam

My Experience:

This was my first day/night cream combo I have tried and I have to say I am happy with it.

Packaging:

Both the creams come in a sturdy cute shaped tiny tubs which are easy to use but I love tube packaging because they are more hygienic.
Maybe I am bit of a germphobe but sticking your finger in tub every time before moisturizing
does not do it for me.
I wish it could either in tube or with some tiny spatula.

Texture and consistency:

Both the creams are neither very thick nor runny at all it’s in between.
They just sink in quite quickly in to my skin. But the day cream does give a dewy finish to my
oily skin in these summers.

They just spread so very easily on face and just take few seconds to absorb.
Texture is soft and smooth like any other cream and fragrance is mild.

Moisturizing: Both the creams are great in moisturizing... they settle down quickly and it not does sit on the top of my skin like a layer of cling wrap.

Before April, day cream was doing well for my oily skin but since April the day cream is
making my t zone sweat badly but after few hours and when I applied it before my make up
it shows oil more quickly like in 1 and half hour.

 When I individually used the day cream it is just good for hydrating
Skin deeply without making it over oily except my t zone and that too in extreme summers.
And yes  it has SPF which is obviously a plus point...I am more often at home in mornings so
for me this day cream is nice because I don’t need to slather an extra layer of sunscreen.

 I liked night cream over day cream

I have realised this when I have stopped using day cream and I used night cream alone .
Night cream  gives a glow to my skin every morning... I could actually notice a sheer
brightness on my face and my t zone is comparatively less oily.

I could actually see my skin more glowing and soft .I think it does work in improving texture of skin.

So it’s a yay yay for night cream and ok okay for day cream... In combination they work same
I mean not a huge difference .but the more visible results will be of night cream.

I am not very ardent user of day cream I prefer using night creams only, I know this is not a
good habit (I am very lazy)...but this combo worked nice for my oily skin...
It kept my skin really well hydrated and I am raving about the night cream because of the glow it gives.

Swatches:
Day cream:

Swatches of night cream:

Overall:
I think if they worked well for my oily skin definitely they will also work nicely for dry skins and
combination skin because both the creams have good balance of moisture for which dove is
famous and it never burdened my skin or broke out my skin even in the humid whether of Mumbai.

Despite some of the gripes with day cream of making my skin bit oily and sweaty, this combo
left a good impression on me.

GOOD: Both the creams are Hydrating and moisturising
Absorbs easily
Light formulation
SPF is a value addition
Night cream improves skin

Bad:
Day cream makes oily skin sweaty and oilier

Kaya Skin Clinic Everyday Radiance Facial(My experience)

be beautiful with punam

My sister is a regular costumer of kaya skin clinic .This time she get rid of her face warts there...I will share that story later...well she only introduced kaya to me & yesterday it was my third visit to kaya skin clinic for taking every day radiance facial.

So today I am sharing my experience with kaya skin clinic everyday radiance facial.

Cost per sitting is 1800 INR

When I entered there clinic I was really impressed with there hospitality & hygiene. Though they kept me waiting too long for my sitting but they arranged my sitting without a prior appointment even being packed completely...as I had to leave for Bhopal that day...they were too generous J

Cleansing:

First of all beautician sanitized her hands, (this is something one should always look for before taking any facial or beauty treatment and before threading also we should ask beautician to sanitize hands ) 

& then she cleaned my face by very less foaming cleanser and follow with aloe vera gel.

Removing dead skin:

She left that aloe vera gel for around 10 mins & follow it with peel which was not scrub nor any chemical peel it was some thing gel like which has salicylic acid in it to remove dead skin, after that my skin was really soft.

Polishing:

Then she used some electronic device for polishing my skin after applying some powdered form substance ,she said this will not only remove dead skin but will also polish skin deeply .. Wow...

Rejuvenating Mask:

Then she picked my blackheads & left me by applying a very thick pink peel off mask...when I touched it I could feel its thickness around ½ inch... it was some cocoa mask...she said it helps skin to rejuvenate & moisturize deeply.

After peeling this mask I could actually see & feel all new punam... really radiant & glowing punam... my skin was looking like of a baby... soft & really pink...

From the first sitting I swear to myself that I will come here again n again & after taking three sitting I could really feel a drastic change in my skin texture & tone.

P.s.: always prefer to consult a dermatologist before taking any treatment/facial there. They have there own dermatologist to attend customers. They listened to my problems very patiently.

In this everyday radiance facial they do variation according to the need of skin. They use different kind of mask like

Insta glow mask - to brighten the skin tone with some marine extract

Tea tree mask –for sensitive skin type to soothe the skin with antiseptic properties

Firming peel off mask- with natural algal for giving radiant looking skin

Fruit mask-for improving skin texture & clarity

Rejuvenating mask: it has vitamin A & astringent to give instant glow & moisturize deeply,

I am going to visit them again...

Have you tried this facial or any other treatment from kaya skin clinic?

Lotus Herbals Nutranite Skin Renewal Night Creme(product review)

be beautiful with punam

I am a fan of some of lotus products.The one among them is its 3 in 1 matte finish sunscreen
& last time when I bought it I got a lovely little pleasure that is Lotus Nutranite Night Cream.
I actually kept it to give my mom as I thought it must be greasy but
after few months I picked it & tried it as I ended up with my regular night cream.

Ingredients: They are not mention in this free gift sample size tube.But I got it from there website:

Active ingredients : Naturally derived Alpha Hydroxy Fruit Acids derived from grapes,
nourishing Ginseng & Lily nectar.

be beautiful with punam

Price: 345 INR for 50 gms

My experience:

As I said I picked it when I ended up with my regular night cream but I was also
attracted towards it coz it says it is suitable for all skin type and honestly they are right.
It actually suits all skin type.

The tube I am using is light & travel friendly but I have seen in some shop it comes in a
glass jar tub which is quite heavy , I wish they could give it in a tube like the sample only,
which is more hygienic & travel friendly.

As soon as I opened it I was pleased by its lovely fruity smell which last for a while on my skin.

Its texture is neither too greasy nor too light somewhere in between.

I have oily skin & then too it absorbs in to my skin after a few seconds of massage
I have been using it for around a month as a very little quantity is required for covering
whole face so I think the 50 gm jar will last more than 2 months.

In this one month It never broke me out & every morning I wake up with soft &
hydrated skin & my t zone is not oily at all.and it gives a subtle glow to my skin.

be beautiful with punam

Its good for hydrating skin & suitable for all skin type as its not heavy &
doesn't sits on skin but if some one is expecting some brightening or renewal effect from this
creme than its not for that as I couldn't find any change in my skin tone or improvement in any way.

Conclusion: I liked it for nourishing my oily skin  without breaking it out &
its light in texture which keeps my t-zone non oily. Its good for those who are just expecting
some nourishment for skin at an affordable price but its not for renewal of skin as against
mentioned on the package.

Have you tried this night creme from lotus ?Then do share your experience.

I would love to read your comments & suggestions.
