Vaadi Herbals Divine Honey and Sandal Shower Gel - Review

Hi friends! I've been trying to move to more natural chemical free products lately and during my search for something gentle to use in the shower, I came across Vaadi Herbals Shower Gels.

The ingredients mentioned by the brand are all natural. I even tried to confirm from their customer support and in the online chat they confirmed that their products are 100% natural and paraben free. So I went ahead and ordered myself one of their shower gels to try out.

I picked out the Divine Honey and Sandal Shower Gel which claims to lighten the skin. 

Sandal is known for it's skin loghtening and brightening proeprties while Honey is a skin elixir of sorts as it helps moisturise the skin.

The brand claims that honey eradicates the skin of dirt while Sandal helps clear up acne. I've been suffering from bacne again and this was the reason why I chose this particular variant from the shower gels from Vaadi Herbals.

The shower gel comes in a fuss free transparent bottle, it has the ingredients mentioned on the bottle. The bottle has a disc top cap which makes it convenient to use in the shower.

Price: Rs 205 (300 mL) [ purchased online from https://amzn.to/2N0HTHG ]

My Experience With Vaadi Herbals Divine Honey & Sandal Shower Gel

My first reaction to this shower gel was actually doubt. The fragrance is very strong and I know Sandal based products usually do have a strong fragrance but this one had a kind of chemical Sandal fragrance.

Iraya Almond and Honey Soap - Review

I want to start with a big WOOOHOOO!!! I am almost going to hit a 100 followers on GFC. Thank you all for making this possible. I am wondering who the 100th follower is going to be!!!

Now after taking a deep breath, let me begin with my post today.

Even though I am a body wash person (I love strawberries and other fruity fragrance body washes!) I do switch to soaps in between. Recently I got hold of the Iraya Almond and Honey soap and was quite satisfied with the results.

What the company claims “A nutrient- rich soap bar with nourishing almond oil, coconut oil, rice bran oil and skin-softening honey. A great recipe to cleanse the skin while leaving it well moisturized and younger–looking.  Great for dry & mature skin.”

Honey and Yoghurt Home Made Hair Pack - Soft Silky Hair

Last visit to the salon was quite surprising - instead of selling me their products the owner actually shared a
nice little home made hair pack with me. She insisted that instead of using all these products available over the counter I should use the hair pack and see a difference for my self.

I was surprised - usually salon owners would sell either thier products or expensive treatments to you.
Anyhow this is what she told me - a hair pack made of yoghurt and honey - thats it - so simple and yet she promised it would be good for my hair.

So here is how I made the Honey and Yoghurt Home Made Hair Pack. I took about two teaspoons full of yoghurt (homemade) and added one heaped teaspoon of honey. I mixed this till it formed an even paste. Then I started applying this to the roots of my hair. Starting from one side of the head I combed out a one inch section, applied the pack mainly to the roots, then moved on to the next section and so on until my whole head was covered. I still had some pack left so I applied it on top of the hair to create a mask on the entire head. I tied my hair from the back and left it like this for 2 hours. This is how my hair looked afterwards (it was a little tricky to capture the picture controlling the camera with one hand above my head!)

The pack is not of a very thick consistency but due to the honey it starts to dry off very quickly - do not try to do anything with your hair while the pack is on - you might end up hurting your hair. So let it sit and relax - you can continue doing rest of your work while the pack dries off.

After two hours I rinsed my hair thoroughly with water and then washed as usual with my regular shampoo. I did not feel anything different while shampooing but when I towel dried my hair I felt a nice softness in my hair. It felt lighter and softer - almost like they show in kid shampoo adds :)

I am really happy with the results. I have tried this pack twice and both times I have felt my hair were nourished. If you happen to have too much pack mixed together don't worry - before starting with your hair - you can apply the pack on your face (if you have oily skin) - the honey and yoghurt work wonders for the face as well. Skin feels brighter and has a healthy glow to it. For the face half an hour at most is enough for the pack - though leaving it on longer is OK if you have very oily skin. Start with the face first because once you start applying to the hair the pack won't be really hygienic for the face (or you can take out a small spoonful and keep aside for the face)
