Za True White Exfoliating Clay Review

I hope all the winners of the Za Beauty giveaway have received their prizes. The prize was a Za True White Exfoliating Clay small tube. I have been using this for sometime now and would be sharing my views on the product. Za True White Exfoliating Clay is a unique product. It is like a clay mask that helps in exfoliating the skin. It comes packaged in a white tube with similar packaging as all Za True White products.

Unboxing: My Envy Box April 2015

April is all about spring and that is what My Envy Box is celebrating with their April box. The box has a lot of goodies inside along with my favourite perfume vial.

Let's dive right into all the details. Here are the 5 products that I got inside My Envy Box.

1. Za True White Exfoliating Clay (Rs 399 for 100gm) - the box contains a sample of 30gm which is a very good sized sample. This is an interesting product, its a clay with small beads in it. You are not supposed to use this as a mask instead massage it onto the skin to exfoliate. More details will be coming up in a full review (I've got the full size product that I've been using and will share the review soon)

2. Avene Sunscreen SPF 50+ Dry Touch Emulsion (Rs 1250 for 50ml) - the sample is a small sized tube. This is a sunscreen with a non-oily texture. A good travel size product for my travel pouch.

3. Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream (Rs 5700 for 100ml) - this is the most amazing fragrance, the perfect blend of fruity and floral for my taste. It is so refreshing for the summer. I think I'll be heading for the full sized version soon - the original bottle is very cute too!

Za True White Emulsion - Review

After my extremely happy experience with Za Perfect Solution Moisturiser it was time to try out a lighter product for the summers. Za True White Emulsion is what I switched to and I will be sharing my views about this today.

Za True White Emulsion - Review

Za True White Emulsion is a light weight non oily product meant to impart brightness, even-tone, and moisturization to the skin. It contains Vitamin C derivatives (AMP and VC-IP), Prism Enhancer,
Trehalose, Natural Spring Water and White Lily Extracts.

Za True White Emulsion comes in the standard white packaging of the Za True White Range. It has a screw cap with a mouth that dispenses just the right amount of the product. I use two dollops of the emulsion to cover my entire face and neck.

Za True White Emulsion - Review

Za True White Emulsion is a very light white creamy liquid product that smooths easily onto the skin. It has a very faint fragrance that is very refreshing. The emulsion does not do anything immediately other than moisturization. But with regular use my skin has stayed even toned and never felt dry. One thing that I have found with this emulsion is that it works as a nice base to give a dewy look to my face when I use it under foundation. I know the company doesn't claim anything of the sort but I have been using it under my foundation.

Price: Rs 895 (125ml) (buy it online)

Za True White Liquid Foundation OC30: Review, Swatch, Price

Za True White Liquid Foundation is a foundation I have been using lately and will probably continue to use during summers as it boasts of an SPF25 PA++.

So first things first, lets take a quick look at the packaging. Za True White Liquid foundation comes in a glass bottle with a pump dispenser. The shape of the bottle is interesting.

Za True White Liquid Foundation OC30: Review, Swatch, Price

I don't like glass bottles personally because then my 2 minute makeup routine stretches to 5 minutes because I need to make sure I take out the bottle carefully, dispense the product and put it back safely before I topple it over onto the floor. So I keep my Za True White Liquid foundation very carefully because this is my current go-to foundation and I don't want to break the bottle.

Za True White Liquid Foundation OC30: Review, Swatch, Price

The dispenser is good, one pump dispenses a small amount (see the swatch image below) so there is never any wastage and no hygiene issues as well.

The texture of the foundation is a semi-thick liquid that blends easily. I do not notice any fragrance in this so people with sensitive noses should be OK to use this.

Za True White Foundation has medium coverage that is buildable. I have shade OC30 which is the closest match to my skin. It looks a tad bit lighter but settles down to match my skin in about an hour or with the help of a little dusting of my Bare Minerals warm glow loose powder. There are 6 shades available and OC30 is the darkest shade. So if you have a deeper skin tone I don't think you'll find a match. There is one more shade available for skin with pink undertones.

Review: Za True White Night Cream (From Shiseido)

Hi everyone, hope you all are having a terrific weekend. Today I'm sharing a review on a night cream that I have been using for the past three weeks and my skin is quite liking at the moment. Its the Za True White Night Cream from the house of Shiseido.

Review: Za True White Night Cream (From Shiseido)

The cream comes packaged in a cute white pot with a unique shape. The overall packaging is quite similar to the Za True White Toner I had reviewed a few days back (you can check the review HERE)
