Prachi Desai Launches Neutrogena’s Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture

I attended the launch of Neutrogena Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture SPF 50 yesterday at its flagship store in Lower Parel..the new product was unveiled by its Brand Ambassador Prachi Desai.

Prachi Desai Launches Neutrogena's Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture

She did share her summer care tips..and also that wearing a sunscreen is a MUST for her..she used the Neutrogena’s Ultrasheer Dry Touch sunblock before and now after the launch of Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture..she is using and loving it..

Geetanjali Shetty, Prachi Desai, Manoj Gadgil

I also had a chat with Dr Geetanjali Shetty, Consultant Dermatologist and asked her more about the product. She said that Silica, a mattifying ingredient, which absorbs excess oil to prevent shine..is a primary ingredient in this..and hence it would be perfect for summers and oily combination skin and would not give that greasy sticky feeling as generally sunscreens do..I also asked her about how would she differentiate the Complete UV Moisture and Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock..and she said the UV Moisture also provides moisturisation along with offering protection without giving a greasy sticky feeling..so that can be the last step of CTM and a separate moisturiser would not be required when one uses this..where as the Sun Block only offers protection..and also that would be more suitable to dry skin…though both have different properties and purpose.

I also talked to Mr Manoj Gadgil, General Marketing Manager, Johnson & Johnson India..about Neutrogena and the best selling products..he said the Neutrogena Fine Fairness Mask is their hot selling one..along with their whole Fine Fairness Range..and more recently the new Neutrogena Deep Clean Blackhead Elimination Warming Treatment is making waves.

Prachi wore a white Zara dress (upper half lacey)..as she found it appropriate for the event and the brand..and tan brown peep toes. She said she does not like to wear make up on a daily basis..and is not even a Kajal/Kohl person..she only uses a lip gloss..and her sunscreen for everyday.

Here is the Press Note:

Neutrogena launches the Ultra Sheer Complete UV Moisture powered with Helioplex Technology coupled with a moisturizing formula

Feels Like Nothing On, Protects Like Nothing Else!

Brand Ambassador Prachi Desai unveils the revolutionary product!

Adding yet another revolutionary sun care product to its existing range of superior broad spectrum sun protection range – Ultrasheer, Neutrogena® the world’s leading brand of Dermatologist Recommended skincare products, launched the Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture. This sunscreen is powered by Neutrogena’s pathbreaking and patented Helioplex™ technology coupled with the added benefit of a superior moisturization formula.

The very charming Prachi Desai, Brand Ambassador, Neutrogena® was present at the Neutrogena® boutique to launch the aesthetically pleasing and scientifically advanced Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture while she also shared her skincare tips for the torrid summer months. Offering insights on being sun safe was also Dr Geetanjali Shetty, Consultant Dermatologist, who busted myths surrounding sun damage, various skin woes during the summer and shared expert advice on the do’s and don’ts for superior long lasting sun protection, especially in the summer months.

Commenting on the launch of the Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture, Mr Manoj Gadgil, General Marketing Manager, Johnson & Johnson India said, “At Neutrogena we believe that‘Healthy Skin is Beautiful skin’. We always pursue the same across all our products as well as awareness and education programs. We highly value the fact that dermatologists recommend our products for improving overall skin health. The scientifically advanced Ultrasheer range with the patented Helioplex™ technology that provides long lasting UVA/UVB protection is no such exception. It offers holistic sun protection to your skin all through the year. Keeping in mind the skin’s specific requirements in the humid summers, The Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture, not only offers superior sun protection but also great moisturization, all in the same product.”

In conjunction with the existing best selling Ultrasheer range, the Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture is also stabilized with patented Helioplex™ that works like an invisible shield offering protection from skin darkening and signs of premature ageing, whilst helping to limit and neutralize free radical damage. Additionally, the non greasy moisturizing formula protects against dehydration offering the necessary dual protection in the summers from sun damage and dehydration, resulting in a complete shine free finish, dispensing away the need to apply multiple products to protect your skin.

Talking about the need for long lasting sun safety, Brand Ambassador Prachi Desai said, “The scorching summer months wreck havoc with the skin, thus the need for sun protection is even more pertinent now! Since I’m outdoors shooting most of the time, I always apply Neutrogena’s Ultrasheer Dry Touch sunblock in addition to taking other precautions to protect my skin. With the launch of the Ultrasheer Complete UV Moisture, now I’m not only sun ready but also my skin doesn’t feel dehydrated and coarse, thanks to the moisturization formula ,which is light weight and non greasy, leaving my skin soft, non shiny and sun safe! What’s more I can even wear it under make up without having to worry about greasiness and clogged pores!”

Keeping in mind the sub tropical Indian climate, the entire Ultra sheer range is formulated specifically for the Indian skin. Dermatologists love to recommend Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Suncare range because it can help get higher compliance from their patients, due to the formula’s beautiful aesthetics. This may well be one of the many reasons that Neutrogena is the #1 Dermatologist recommended suncare brand!

Now, there’s no reason not to use sun protection! Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Complete UV Moisture gives you the very best, broad-spectrum sun protection in a non-greasy, lightweight formulation. So light, it can even be worn under makeup. Now that’s protection that is strong on the sun, yet feels light on your skin!

The Ultra Sheer sun care range is priced at:

Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 50     30ml   Rs.150 

Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch Sunblock SPF 50     88ml   Rs 499

Indoors

Sunlight

Cool Winter is a peachy bronze shade which has gold specks in it. It would look fab on all skin tones as it imparts a nice glow to the cheeks..would suit medium to fair more..as it would show up on them..for dusky skin tones..it would just give a hint of glow.

Jordana Blush in Sunlit Bronze is a little similar..but Sunlit Bronze has a hint of warm pink too…where this is more of peachy coppery brown.

Its rightly named Cool Winter as it would bring color to the pale skin in winters..it would also work as a bronzer for some skin tones..

Pros:

1. Natural everyday shade.
2. The gold specks also work as highlighter.
3. This shade would also work as a bronzer.
4. Recyclable cardboard packaging.
5. The brush is soft and decent enough.
6. This shade would suit all skin tones.
7. Pigmented enough and does not look OTT.
8. Stays for a good 5-6 hours.

Cons:

1. Expensive.
2. Not available here.
3. Only 2 shades available.

Overall I do love the shade..it brings warmth to the skin..and never look OTT..even if you are a beginner you would not go wrong with this..totally recommend.

The Nature’s Co. Chocolate Mint Lip Balm Review

The Nature’s Co. Chocolate Mint Lip Balm Review

What the Company claims: Chocolate & Mint Lip Balm

Moisturizing, softening, soothing, and cooling.

Net Wt: 10 ml (0.3 fl.oz)    
MRP: Rs. 225.00

Ingredients:

Chocolate & Mint Lip Balm is a part of the Earthborne Range of the Nature’s Co. It comes in the trademark Nature’s Co. square packaging with an inverted top which closes opposite way.

This smells exactly like toffee ! I love the smell..quite unlike its fellow Body Butter..which did not please my nose..

But its a little hard in texture..and does not come out easily..and being in a tub..you need to dig in the fingers..which I do not much like..though it softened in summers..its not so emollient as a lip balm should be..

It comes out transparent…I do not find it very moisturising though..it would keep lips soft..but it cannot heal chapped lips..

Pros:

1. Love the toffee smell.
2. I like the packaging..though it occupies more space coz of the shape.
3. Keeps lips soft.
4. I liked the ingredients..shea butter, mango butter,etc
5. Economically priced for 10ml.

Cons:

1. Its a little hard in texture and does not come out easily…more so in winters.
2. Does not heal chapped lips.
3. Tub packaging.

Overall its like a normal lip balm..if you love the toffee smell..you can try it at the stores..I would have preferred it to be more moisturising and if it would have helped in healing chapped lips too. If you looking for something more healing..then I would not recommend this..

Common Exfoliation Mistakes

Common Exfoliation Mistakes

While it’s true that no skin care regimen is complete with regular exfoliation, this task does require some basic guidelines to be effective. An important component of regular skin care, an exfoliating product should be strong enough to whisk away dead skin cells and, thus, help to clear out your pores. A good routine can result in skin that is fresher, brighter, less acne-prone, and more youthful.

Exfoliation helps encourage cell renewal and leaves skin looking and feeling radiant. Exfoliation works by gently lifting and removing dead skin cells that leave the skin dull and lack lustre, and gently sloughs them away to reveal brighter, healthier, newer layers of skin. This fresher layer of skin leaves your complexion looking fresh, radiant and youthful. Always make sure you use a quality exfoliator with smaller grains, instead of scrubs with larger grains as these can tear and cause irritation to the delicate skin area, doing more harm than good.

Commit some of these mistakes, however, and you might be cancelling out the supreme benefits of that scrub.

Mistake #1 – You scrub without water.

Before you exfoliate, it’s important to lubricate the skin with warm water. A “dry rub” can irritate the skin, causing redness, rashes, and painful after effects. Do yourself a favor and rinse your face first, then get to the scrubbing while your skin is still wet.

Mistake #2 – You scrub too hard.

Some people think that, to be effective, their exfoliating product must be mushed and mashed all over their face. On the contrary, the product is designed to do most of the work on its own. Instead of pushing and pulling the skin which leads to redness, stretching of the pores, and micro-level damage you won’t see until your older, go easy on your skin. Gently massage your fingertips over the skin in little circles for about 10-15 seconds, then move on to the next area. Any more is just overkill.

Mistake #3 – You scrub too often.

Exfoliation is definitely one of those things where the less-is-more philosophy works. While some of us might think exfoliating every day is a good idea (hey–you’ll get rid of lots of dead skin that way, right?), that’s too much. This kind of routine can leave your skin sore, damaged, and overexposed. For oily skin types, exfoliating twice a week is enough to keep cells turning over at a good pace and pores clear. Combination or dry skin types, however, can stick to a once a week schedule.

Mistake #4 – You scrub without follow-up care.

Scrubbing is important, but it’s a big deal for your skin. After you exfoliate the skin, you should always follow-up with a good moisturizer. Skipping this step can leave your skin over-dry and irritated, which can lead to overproduction of oil and lots of other issues. Quench skin’s thirst right away to avoid a dangerous cycle.

Mistake #5 – You scrub your face, but not everywhere else.

Many of us concentrate our healthy skin habits on one area: the face. But the rest of our bodies need some TLC once in a while today. Beyond washing daily, you should also moisturize daily and use a scrub once a week. Your rough elbows and knees will thank you for the extra attention.

Mistake #6 – You scrub with the wrong tools.

Before you scrub, make sure you’re using the right products for the right parts. Don’t use foot scrubs on your face (too harsh) or face scrubs on your body (not strong enough). The same goes for your scrubbing tools. Using a moderately rough loofah or sponge is okay for the body, but can be too much for the delicate skin on your face. Instead, stick to using your fingers with a scrub or a light exfoliating pad with regular face wash. Both will get the job done without causing irritation.


Mistake #7 – You scrub and carry on as usual.

Ignoring the fact that your skin is sensitive after scrubbing is an all-too-common error. When you scrub, the pores open up, brand new skin cells are exposed, and the moisture balance is a little off-kilter. Yes, stick to using that moisturizer as I mentioned in #4. Beyond that, go easy on your skin the day you exfoliate. After scrubbing, avoid sun exposure, harsh masks or facial peels, and hair removal products. The extra sensitivity can make it much easier to harm, irritate, and dry your skin after your weekly exfoliation.

Following exfoliation, the skin is primed and at it’s peak for absorbing products. This is why you should apply your moisturiser or a masque as the ingredients will absorb quicker and more deeper into the skin for maximum results.

Just by avoiding these common errors, your skin care routine can be greatly improved by regular exfoliation. Treat the skin kindly and it will pay off for years to come.

Ingredients:

Its a normal white small bottle..slightly curved at the top..Lakme has also converted to this packaging of late..

Its a runny lotion..not too thick..but spreads around easily..and gets easily absorbed too..its moisturising enough for normal skin and for summers..but for very dry skin…they may need to reapply by the end of the day..

I love the citrusy and floral mix..it smells super awesome..it actually is feel good…though the smell does not last the whole day..well I do not even expect that..but stays a good 2-3 hours..

Pros:

1. Love the super awesome smell.
2. Gets easily absorbed.
3. Not too thick and spreads easily.
4. I liked the bottle..and this small bottle is convenient enough to carry around too.
5. The texture is perfect for summers…and so is the citrusy fragrance.

Cons:

1. May not be moisturising enough for very dry skin.
2. Has parabens.
3. You get only 75ml at Rs. 95/- whereas comparatively other body lotions which are equally good are quite cheaper.

Overall its a nice body lotion..I particularly love the smell..I only wish it was more moisturising and also the qty offered for the price was justified.

VIRGIN ATLANTIC’S PERFECT POUT: bareMinerals ‘Upper Class Red’ Takes Off

VIRGIN ATLANTIC’S PERFECT POUT: bareMinerals ‘Upper Class Red’ Takes Off

Virgin Atlantic and bareMinerals are giving passengers a taste of the high life this summer with the creation of a new bespoke lip product.

bareMinerals Pretty Amazing™ Lipcolor in shade ‘Upper Class Red’ – will mark the launch of the airline’s redesigned Upper Class cabin which takes to the skies this spring. The airline has chosen the award-winning makeup brand bareMinerals to select the perfect lip product to re-create the iconic ‘Virgin Atlantic Red’ – giving high-flying passengers the chance to experience the jet-set glamour and style synonymous with the airline’s cabin crew. To have a look and feel of how we groom our crew with this, please view this video…and some tips..

The striking lip colour, ‘Upper Class Red’, will be made available to sell to the public for pre-order on board Virgin Atlantic flights through the airline’s inflight shopping guide, Retail Therapy. It will also be sold at the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse Spa at Heathrow, Gatwick and New York JFK before it is made more widely available later this year at selected bareMinerals stockists

Rebecca Creer, Senior Spas and Grooming Manager at Virgin Atlantic, says: “Red hot lips have always been a trademark of our cabin crew, signifying the strength and confidence they embody. With the launch of ‘Upper Class Red’, this is finally being made available to passengers – meaning one swipe is all you need to create a classic and timeless look – something our cabin crew can certainly vouch for!”

The lip colour has been specially chosen by bareMinerals with Virgin Atlantic’s cabin crew because of the perfect colour match to the ‘Virgin Atlantic Red’. bareMinerals only use the finest quality ingredients in its products and its moisture enriching lip formula make it a firm favourite with Virgin Atlantic’s cabin crew – who have already given it their seal of approval.

Vanessa White, Upper Class cabin crew at Virgin Atlantic comments: “All of the female cabin crew wear red lipstick so we were keen to find a ‘Virgin Atlantic Red’ worthy of the perfect pout! ‘Upper Class Red’ is a vivid shade that’s bold, strong and perfect for travelling in.”

All female cabin crew will be wearing the shade onboard the new Upper Class Cabin which launches this spring on the A330 flight from London to New York. Upper Class passengers lucky enough to be travelling onboard the inaugural flight will also receive a sample as a welcome gift to take away with them. A brand new A330 will also be flying from London to Delhi starting July 9th 2012.

Sarah-Jane Froom, European Makeup Artist at bareMinerals, comments: “We predict that bareMinerals Pretty Amazing™ Lipcolor in ‘Upper Class Red’, is set to be a popular choice as it’s got the coverage of a lipstick but the high shine effects of a gloss to deliver a full-bodied, velveteen colour – a red shade that suits every skin tone. It’s also been created with frequent fliers in mind as it includes micronized freshwater pearl powder which hydrates the lips alleviating the effects of cabin air pressure. Plus the comfortable and longwearing finish makes glamour last that bit longer, perfect for long-haul flights.”

Its a blue based red..Is’nt it one gorgeous red ?!!
