I am sorry for not posting day before yesterday..I was and am still a little upset and angry over the bomb blasts in Mumbai..and yest had some internet issues..
Ok..coming back to the review..I got a few samples of Duchess Marden products to review..I will do that in 2 parts as I do not want to make it too big.
I am reviewing the Cleansers,masque and enzyme exfoliant in here..
Duchess Marden Foaming Cleanser
Benefits:
Removes makeup and impurities gently, yet thoroughly with mild plant-derived surfactants
Replenishes moisture to dry and damaged skin
Stimulates collagen rebuilding to protect skin’s elasticity
Regenerates damaged tissue
Deeply moisturizes, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles
Rose oils impart calming and soothing properties
Free of petrochemicals, parabens and chemical preservatives
It has that rose oil smell which is a signature fragrance for Duchess Marden..its a transparent gel..foams well..and cleans basic makeup,dirt and skin nicely..does not leave the skin dry or stretchy..quite liked it..
Duchess Marden Creme Cleanser
Benefits:
Same benefits as above
Its a normal white cleanser with an oily kinda smell..removes makeup well..did not irritate or sting eyes..did not dry out skin..overall nice..
Duchess Marden Enzyme Exfoliant
Benefits:
Deeply cleanses and gently exfoliates
Improves skin’s texture
Smoothes fine lines and promotes healthy cell growth and increased circulation
Reduces the appearance of aging by nourishing with powerful antioxidants
Non-abrasive, non-drying, non-irritating
Calming and soothing
Provides a supple, healthy glow to skin
It looks like a normal white lotion but has very minute small grainy exfoliators in it..it works nicely..as claimed its non abrasive non drying non irritating..I guess would work nicely for ppl with sensitive skin..and would not for ppl who like more exfoliation..
Duchess Marden Hydrating Masque
Benefits:
Improves water retention and absorption with ingredients such as Cassia Angustifolia
Palmaria Palmate acts to brighten skin by reducing melanin and pigmentation
Deeply hydrating formula that imparts minerals, nutrients and anti-oxidants
Its a normal transparent thick gel with rose water fragrance and looks different for a mask..quite unique..I apply this all over and keep it for 20-25 minutes and then wash off..skin does feel soft and supple and hydrated..overall its quite nice..
Would do Part-2 of it later.. See more here
P.S: Product sent by brand for review but it has not affected my opinion.
