Top 5 Neutrogena Products in India, Prices, Buy Online
By Devika
Hey loves!
Hope this post finds you in best of your summer fighting spirits 😉 As the Sun is shining bright on our heads, our skin yearns for more care with products that alleviate our skin from the scorching harsh summer’s effect. So I have sorted, based on my long experience of working with them, top 5 products from Neutrogena which is a drugstore, dermatologically recommended brand!!!(I so wish if it could be available during my early teens).It has a wide range of products spread across all skin types and skin concerns. Their popularity speaks for itself so without further ado let’s find out.
1. NEUTROGENA ULTRA SHEER DRY TOUCH SUNBLOCK SPF 50 (BUY HERE for 449)
OMG! This is my Holy Grail sunscreen.
Loaded with SPF 50, water and sweat proof, mildly fragrant, gets absorbed like a dream without leaving a ghostly chalky white cast look (which other sunscreens do)
Doesn’t break out, suited for all skin tones. A must have!!!
Regular size 88ml retails at 499 INR and travel friendly size 30 ml retails at 199 INR
2. NEUTROGENA DEEP CLEAN FACIAL CLEANSER FOR OILY SKIN (BUY HERE for 301)
It’s a gel based face wash best for oily, acne prone skin (contains salicylic acid) ,oil and alcohol free making skin cleaner and calm. Maintains skin oil balance, doesn’t breakout, mildly fragrant though lathers less but that doesn’t effect its efficacy. May not suit dry skin as name suggests. It’s best at its price
Regular size 200 ml for 350 INR and travel friendly size of 50 ml at 95 INR
3. NEUTROGENA NORWEGIAN FORMULA LIP MOISTURISER (BUY HERE)
Another must have product is this lip balm which comes in a pocket friendly packaging with secure snap on cap. As it is transparent, fragrance free and has SPF 15 it is perfect for daily use. Keep lips hydrated without being heavy or giving a waxy feel, prevents tanning. Ideal for lone use or under matte lipsticks. Moreover it is PABA free. It retails for 149 INR for 4g
4. NEUTROGENA OIL FREE MOISTURIZER WITH SPF 15 (BUY HERE)
My personal favorite is this 2 in 1 product (moisturizer cum sunscreen) which is non-greasy, alcohol free and non-comedogenic with SPF 15. It absorbs into skin very quickly, consistency is just right, quantity needed is very small to cover whole of the face-a little goes along way! Perfect for oily, acne prone skin. Absolute fragrance free is an added advantage. I also adore this for the travel friendly packaging as pumping dispenser comes with the lock so its 100% spill free in your bag. In all, excellent moisturizer to wear under everyday makeup.
Retails for 349 INR for 115ml
5. NEUTROGENA DEEP CLEAN BLACKHEAD ELIMINATING DAILY SCRUB (BUY HERE for 216)
Last one to make it to top 5 is mild daily scrub, gel based with small orange granules which aid in cleaning and unclogging the pores without being harsh on skin as many other scrubs do and thus its suited for daily use. Salicylic acid being one of the ingredient makes it safe for oily acne prone skin though elimination of blackheads in Toto isn’t seen but one can feel the deep cleansing it does.
Retails for 240 for 100g of product
So these were my recommendations based on my reviews. Do let me know if these worked wonders for you as well.
Editor’s Note: I love this list and totally agree with all of these, I love the sun block and facial cleanser too. And the scrub is on my list.
I am reviewing three shades from the new Lotus Herbals ColorStylo Lip Color Range.
Product Description:
• Long Stay
• Moisturising
• Preservative Free
MRP: INR 495 for 3.7g
There is not much information available online yet, but these come in 10 shades from nudes to reds to plums.
To start with the packaging, they come color coded according to their shade which makes it easier to identify. They have retractable swivel up packaging with a transparent cap.
The pigmentation is amazing, you get full opaque color in 2 swipes. These glide on easily and are quick to work with. The finish is glossy but you can blot the color to make it a bit matte. However you won’t be able to blot much as it would otherwise even take away some color/pigmentation. Since these are creamy and glossy, it is also easy to go overboard and beyond the lip lines, so be careful there.
Full size of the product inside
Staying power is quite impressive too, it stayed for 4-5 hours on me without eating and leaves behind a strong stain. Even with eating or drinking, the stain is quite strong and stays though. It is not transfer proof though, but the glossiness would transfer and then later on the stain doesn’t transfer and stays put, if you know what I mean.
T-B: Ruby Red, Orange Madness, Russian Red
206 Ruby Red is a deep berry cool toned red, would look amazing on deeper skin tones.
209 Orange Madness is neutral coral orange, no neon hint and very wearable. Perfect summer colour.
205 Russian Red is a neutral red that would work on pretty much everyone.
L-R: Russian Red, Orange Madness, Ruby Red
Ruby Red swatch was a little blurry as I have a new lens and currently struggling with it, hence did not include it here.
Russian Red & Orange Madness
I love all three reds and oranges, but I would love to try a lighter shade too from this this range. I am eyeing the shade Nude Blush.
Here I am wearing Russian Red.
Price point of 495 is pretty amazing, when all brands are pricing lip crayons much higher. If you don’t mind glossy lip colours, then these are definitely worth checking out. Only problem currently is availability, they are not available online yet, but I have seen it at Lotus Herbals Kiosks all over. Recommend it.

Natural Bath and Body Vitamin E Whipped Cream Review
By Pallavi
Hello girlies,
I have read some years back that vitamin E is good for your skin. Actually all the vitamins are approximately good for your skin. But vitamin E specially is known to have miraculous benefits for your skin. so, after that whenever i see any skin care or even makeup product having vitamin E in it i immediately buy it. The same happened with me when i saw this product on one of my online purchases. I like to try new products and new brands. And this was my first winters in Delhi. So, my moisturising products where finishing up like anything. My extremely dry skin was eating up all the products. So, i saw this whipped cream and since i like natural as a brand i bought it. so, here follows the review.
Directions to use: wash your face. Pat it dry with a simple towel. Now, apply the face cream on completely dry face. apply generously covering your face, cheeks , neck and hands too.
What does the brand claim: Our whipped cream is a decadent indulgence in winter, especially for oily and sensitive skin. It has been vigorously whisked to give it a luscious, fluffy texture that gets absorbed instantly. Loaded with Vitamin E and the charmed potion of Virgin Coconut, Sweet Almond, Argan and Avocado Oils, this ultra-light cream completely nourishes, softens and tones the skin. The high concentration of the antioxidant Vitamin E in this whip makes it an ideal protective and restorative cream for delicate skin.
My experience with Natural Bath and Body vitamin E whipped cream
This whipped cream comes in a tube packaging. it has the product details and all the other things mentioned on the tube itself. For me the tube is informative enough. And since the tube is medium in size. It is perfect for travelling purpose too.
The cream is thick in texture. This makes it perfect for winters. The packaging does not mentions to be used typically on face so you can use it on body or any other area where you feel the need of moisturizer. It moisturizes and heals and repairs your dry chapped skin. it makes the skin really soft in a very short time.
Good about Natural Bath and Body vitamin E whipped cream
Easily available
Natural brand
Affordable
No bothersome smell
Moisturises and heals dry chapped skin
Makes skin soft and smooth
Bad about Natural Bath and Body vitamin E whipped cream
None for me
Rating – 5/5
Editor’s Note: This sounds really nice, would love to try it sometime. Nice review Pallavi
Have you tried the Natural Bath and Body Vitamin E Whipped Cream or anything else from Natural Bath & Body?
If you remember, I have reviewed the Clean & Clear Foaming Face wash earlier, read HERE. It is one of the most handy and economically priced face wash for oily skin in the market currently. I love how it foams and deep cleanses, getting rid of all the dirt and oil from the pores.
When you use it after a long, tiring day, you can feel the dirt and oil getting cleansed giving you an instant refreshing feeling.
When you have oily or muddy face, you don’t feel confident and at the same time the fear of the dirt and oil getting accumulated in your pores, resulting in clogged pores and acne.
Clean & Clear recognizes that it takes courage to be your real self. It removes dirt, oil, fear and doubt with every wash so that you feel happy in your own skin and have the courage to let people see the real you, whoever you are today.
With Clean & Clear Foaming Face wash and it’s 8 hour long oil controlling ability, you can now get the assurance that you are indeed ready for whatever the day may bring. A cleanser for oily skin is one of the first and very important step to control oily skin.
No one likes the oily, chip chip feeling on the face. And when you are out whole day, one doesn’t have the time to blot the face time and again or keep checking if your face is too shiny.
Wash away your fears and worries about oily skin with Foaming Face Wash. Its 8 hour oil control ensures you see your oil-free real self in the mirror/reflections through the day. So you can be always ready to be the real you.
It definitely keeps oil and shine at bay, for me. When I have a long day out, I always use this and make sure I carry it along with me all the time. You can always keep one in your hand bag, you never know when you might need it 😀 For instance, it may be a stay over at a friend’s place after a long night of partying or an after party from college or work, anytime, anywhere. I love the fact that it is handy and it comes in a smaller 20ml and 50ml bottles too. I don’t worry about my face being shiny or oily when I use this, I know I can #BeAlwaysReady with the Clean & Clear Foaming Face Wash.
Clean & Clear has come up with the #BeAlwaysReady contest on Facebook with the Clean & Clear Foaming Face Wash, where you can win amazing hampers and the Mega Gratification is that you can be the face of Clean & Clear! Yes, the face of the brand, you read the right.
Burt’s Bees Replenishing Regenerant Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil Review
By Nidhal
There’s no shortage of lip balms in an average lady’s armoury but still, one cannot simply get over them, right? There will always be a lip balm that will entice you towards itself the way we are lured to the kitchen when our mothers whip our favourite dish 😛
One lip balm that has been on my to-buy list has been BURTS BEES REPLENISHING REGENERANT LIP BALM. Since winters have wrapped up, I have bid adieu to my lip butters and cleared my ‘armoury’ to make way for lip balms. It goes without saying that after burning a hole in my pocket, I managed to grab this lip balm and today, its report card by me is right before your eyes. Scroll to see if it emerged with flying colours or flunked.
PRICE- Rs 950/- for 4.25 g
DIRECTIONS FOR USE- Glide on lips as often as desired.
INGREDIENTS- Not mentioned
WHAT IT CLAIMS– Give your thirsty lips a whole lot of love with our lip balm with antioxidant-rich Pomegranate Oil. 100% natural, it happily hydrates and revitalizes your lips with a hint of color for an even, beautifully toned appearance.
• Packed with the power of Pomegranate Oil.
• Sweet Pomegranate flavor.
• Single tubes and twinpack available
MY EXPERIENCE-
Burt’s bees replenishing regenerant lip balm comes packed in a cardboard container with the main balm being ensconced in a sturdy plastic tube with a cap on top. Due to the provision of the balm in a tube, I find it a lot less troublesome to use than lip butters which require the user to dip their fingers in the tub of the lip butter. Its cap is sturdy too and hasn’t lost its grip despite a month of use. On the whole, it is up to the mark in terms of packaging.
The balm has a smooth, non-greasy and non-buttery texture. It is lightweight and in spite of being swiped several times, you won’t get a heavy feel. Its staying power sadly, is not praiseworthy given its price. It stays for 1-2 hours in case of my lips which are not dry. With heavy meals, retouch is tacit.
Even though it looks pink, yet it is absolutely colourless. No matter how many times you swipe it, it just doesn’t throw any colour. That’s’ a major put-off for me for I think those with slightly/highly pigmented lips won’t be able to use it. Its moisturising power isn’t commendable. I don’t find it hydrating my lips deeply. So, for those with chapped lips, again it is of limited use.
Despite using it for a month, I didn’t notice any noteworthy result in the condition of lips. A bad investment? Yes, absolutely.
GOOD-
Sturdy packaging. The balm never gets stuck in the tube despite regular use (exceptions may exist).
Mild and pleasant aroma
BAD-
Highly expensive for a lip balm
Disappointing staying power for the price paid
Almost zero tint. It won’t cover pigmentation hence, of less use to those with dark lips or even slight pigmentation.
Does not hydrate lips intensely
Availability is an issue. It isn’t still easy to spot in neighbouring markets.
Hasn’t impacted the condition of my lips in any noticeable way despite a month of usage.
Ingredients’ list has not been furnished.
RATING- 1/5
Obviously do not recommend and not buying it again.
Editor’s Note: Whoa, I have heard such mixed reviews. Some of the Burt’s Bees lip balms are pretty amazing. I have one which is pretty good. Also I did not find this Regenerant one on their website, but only the basic moisturizing Pomegranate one, so this one is discontinued now I believe.
Have you tried this Burt’s Bees Replenishing Regenerant Pomegranate Lip Balm yet?

Freshlook 1 Day Color Lens – Grey (1 pair) (Rs.900 for a pair of 5)
There was an option to select a full sized makeup product for this month’s bag and since I already had most of the stuff, I went for this Catrice Cosmetics Lip Pencil in Hey Macadamia Ahey.
There are 6 products in this month’s bag which is pretty good. I love the Catrice Lip pencil and the earrings. Also I haven’t worn colored lenses post I got my lasik done, so would definitely be trying these once in one of the makeup looks in the future.
Not very happy about the samples except the Soultree one, but the rest of the products makeup for it.
Freshlook Grey Lenses
The earrings, lip pencil and one pair of colored lenses totally make the bag worth the money, rest can be counted free 🙂 I do like this month’s bag and recommend it, unless you don’t wear lenses and don’t like the accessory. I am not sure which accessory is being sent to whom, so that depends on your luck 😀
Overall, a thumbs up from me.
What did you get in your April 2016 Fab Bag? Do let me know in the comments below.
The dry and cold weather during the winter months tend to strip your hair of moisture. As a result, your tresses look dull, frizzy, and lifeless. Dry hair is more prone to breakage and develops split ends. Hence, it is important to nourish and condition your hair. The right kind of conditioning treatments during the winters would help to lock in moisture content in the hair shafts, thereby making your hair soft and manageable. Check out the top 5 natural hair conditioning treatments that are not only simple but also effective.
1. BANANA NOURISHING HAIR TREATMENT: Put a ripe banana, 3 tablespoons of olive oil and 3 tablespoons of honey in a blender. Blend well and apply this rich concoction on your hair shafts. Olive oil is one of the best known natural moisturizers while honey is a natural humectant. Banana helps minimize contraction while nourishing your hair thoroughly. After 30 minutes, wash it off. Be patient while washing, as banana tends to stick to your hair. Do it once a week for best results.
2. WHOLESOME EGG TREATMENT: Whisk an egg, 4 tablespoons of mayonnaise and a cup of plain yogurt in a bowl and apply the mixture liberally on your hair strands. The natural proteins and vitamins present in egg works wonders in strengthening the hair follicles and bringing about significant reduction in dryness. Yogurt makes hair soft while mayonnaise moisturises your hair. Wait for 45 minutes post application and rinse thoroughly with trepid water and shampoo. This homemade hair treatment can be done twice every week.
3. AVOCADO PROTEIN HAIR TREATMENT: Avocado is a rich storehouse of natural proteins and oils. Mash an avocado and add 5 to 6 drops of peppermint oil. Shampoo your hair, squeeze the water out and apply this mask. Wait for about 20 minutes and rinse well. Hair feels soft, smooth and hydrated.
4. CLASSIC MILK AND HONEY TREATMENT: It is pretty easy to prepare this classic hair mask. Mix two tablespoons of honey to a cup of whole milk and apply this natural hair potion along the length of your hair. Leave it on for about 15 minutes and rinse well. This mask strengthens your hair, moisturises it and rejuvenates dry hair. Do this treatment twice every week to see amazing results.
5. HOT OIL TREATMENT: The homemade hot oil treatment has stood the test of time. Warm up any natural oil of your choice and massage your hair and scalp well. You could use olive oil, almond oil, coconut oil or jojoba oil. You may even love to blend two oils in equal amounts and then, add a few drops of your favourite essential oil for extra benefits. Follow up with turban therapy and then shampoo. Hair feels soft, moisturized and well-nourished.
Isn’t t easy to attain gorgeous locks just by following a few homemade hair care treatments? Opt for these DIY conditioners and get beautiful and nourished hair, naturally!
Editor’s Note: I so agree with Hot Oil one. I am going to try a few of these for sure, especially milk and honey 🙂 Nice post Somreeta

Do you follow these at home DIY’s for Deep Conditioning your hair?
Since summer is round the corner, i thought of coming up with something summery. Well, i just love summers. Winters are not my best friend because you have to wear so many clothes in summers and you have to stay all day inside. Winters are quite boring and short. Whereas in summers you get the complete day to yourself. Anyways, let’s not drift away from the topic of summer essentials. Since all the seasons have some or the other staples. So, what’s your staple in summers? Well, for me sunscreen. But i have heard that many people treat perfumes or do as their staple in summer. Well, i am not a perfume girl and so i use perfume too less. But i have heard half of the world going gaga over this perfume. So, i thought of let’s try it out. And thus here follows my review.
Directions to use : Press the nozzle at the top and the splash will dispense out of the hole. Now, spray it on your underarms , handkerchiefs and any other place you like.
What it claims :
Layerr brings you Wottagirl fragrant body splashes; fragrances that will leave you feeling fresh and smelling beautiful.A seductive fusion of ripe oranges and lemons, enveloped in the classic floral sweetness of jasmine.
My experience with Layer’r Wottagirl Secret crush Body Splash
Firstly, let’s talk about the packaging. it comes in really fancy and classy packaging. it is a big glass bottle which is transparent and has attractive designs going on in the body. the product name and other details are on the bottle. the bottle similar to other perfumes has a nozzle like opening which needs to be pressed a bit to bring the perfume out.
The perfume is gaseous in nature which is of course transparent. You cannot see it but just smell it. i remember Layer’r Wottagirl launched some more scents this time. All were quite distinct from one another and yet so good. This one is more like a feminine one and is very classy. It is not at all a troubling smell and stays on for quite long.
Good about Layer’r Wottagirl Secret crush Body Splash
Easy availability
Affordable price
Wide range of choices
Classy packaging
Not irritating on skin
Smells is not bothersome
Lasts entire day
Bad about Layer’r Wottagirl Secret crush Body Splash
Nothing for me
Rating – 5/5
Editor’s Note: Sounds pretty good, I have to try this. Nice Review Pallavi 🙂
Have you tried Layer’r Wottagirl Body Splash before? Any favourites?

The words ‘moist’ and ‘matte’ are simply enough to steal our attention. The L’Oréal Paris Color Riche Moist Matte is available in 12 stunning shades and there are some lipsticks with the Limited Edition Swarovski packaging, which is gorgeous to the core. They glide on the lips like butter and very light weight. Though it maintains a certain level of hydration on the lips, it looks semi-matte.

(P.S: I absolutely love Raspberry Syrup and Spring Rossette)
5. L’Oréal Paris Mat Magique Compact Powder (399 INR) (Review, Swatches HERE) (BUY HERE for 358)
In the recent past, L’Oréal Paris launched the budget friendly mat compact in 5 shades (which is rare in the Indian market). The shades are such that everyone would definitely find a suitable match for themselves and works great on the skin to give flawless finish. It absorbs oil well and keeps the skin oil-free for around 6hours or so. It is also enriched with SPF 34 PA+++ to help protect your skin from the sun. This is the perfect one for the upcoming summer.
6. L’Oréal Paris Super Liner Gel Intenza 36H (875 INR) (BUY HERE for 610 to 691)
Gel liners are such a rage these days and L’Oréal came up with the 36H formula of gel liner. It has a gorgeous golden lid and glass pot packaging and also comes with a brush. It is available in 5 different shades which is outstanding. It is creamy and gives such a rich and intense tough to the eyes that you won’t feel like applying anything. It finishes matte and doesn’t cake up at all. The gel liner is also tear-proof, smudge-proof and lasts for the whole day. (P.S: Royal Blue is absolutely amazing)
7. L’Oréal Paris Color Riche L’Extraordinaire Lip Color (950 INR) (BUY HERE for 314 to 758)
If matte lovers adore the Color Riche matte lipsticks, L’Oréal has brought the Color Riche L’Extraordinaire which is a cult favorite among gloss lovers. It offers 13 shades and each has its own beauty. These are something between lipstick and glosses. It provides a magnifying shine and gloss to the lips which rich colors, that of a lipstick and makes a ravishing difference to the lips. It hydrates it thoroughly and quite forgiving for dry and chapped lips. It is non sticky and long lasting than any gloss.
8. L’Oréal Paris Infallible Reno Liquid Foundation (1325 INR) (Review & Swatches HERE) (BUY HERE for 924)
Another star product from L’Oreal Paris. It is one of the best liquid foundations in India currently. Full coverage, photographs beautifully, comes in 11 shades, matte finish, stays put whole day long! If you have weddings/events, etc., then you got to have this foundation.
9. L’Oréal Paris Collection Star Red Lipsticks (INR 995) (Review, Swatches HERE) (BUY HERE for 645 to 746)
Probably the most talked about and raved launches of L’Oréal Paris. Every woman goes weak seeing a red lipstick; L’Oréal went a step ahead and launched 7 stunning red of different variety, endorsed by 7 different celebrities and their signature in the packaging. The lipsticks are intense in pigmentation, rich in texture and screams vanity with every application. The finish is comfortable matte and is a pure indulgence.
10. L’Oréal Paris True Match Foundation (INR 1025) (BUY HERE for 959)
The True Match series of L’Oréal Paris is indeed great – from mineral makeup to concealer but if I have to choose one, I would blindly go for the foundation. It has 11 shades ranging from warm to cool undertones and offers a great finish to the skin. It is so easy to blend and wears just like your natural skin. It gives an oil free natural finish and has medium to buildable coverage. It photographs really well and imparts a flawless touch to the skin.
Editor’s Note: I would also recommend the L’Oreal Paris Base Magique Primer, one of the very good primers available in India currently. And from the new Pink Collection, Julianne, Eva and J.Lo’s shades.
Do let me know your favorite product from L’Oréal Paris.
