Divine Vanilla Patchouli Soap Review

I had received this from Meg of Beaute Naturelle along with some other samples..

What the Company claims: Sumptuously scented with delicate notes of the Vanilla bean and the exotic, calming and grounding fragrance of of Patchouli. All of the Divine bathing bars are very rich in natural glycerin due to a natural cold process method.

MRP: Rs.50/- for 75g

This is the creamiest soap I have used till now..even after just opening the pack..the dry soap  is also super creamy to touch..has an super awesome smell of vanilla with hints of patchouli..

Pros:

1. Super creamy soap.
2. Foams decently…unlike Khadi
3. Economical..they are priced almost the same as Khadi but are much better than those quality wise.
4. Love the smell !!
5. Does not dry out the skin.

Cons:

1. The smell does not linger for long.
2. Only available online.

Overall I quite liked this soap…better than others I have used..

Rating:

Quality: 4.5/5
Value for money: 5/5
Availability: 3.5/5

Overall Rating: 4/5

Would I buy it again: Yes..I would love to try the different variants in it..

It has been recently featured on Mid Day. Check it out here

I liked the fact that this site keeps all brands which use all natural and herbal ingredients and not the chemical stuff.

It has five Indian brands..Tvam: Naturally yours,Nourish Body and Bath,Last Forest Enterprises,Ruby’s Herbal and Divine.

It has some very nice and interesting products… I am reviewing few samples here

Nourish: Madras Coffee Madness Body Scrub

This amazing sugar and coffee-based body scrub completely smooths out rough spots like knees, heels and elbows. Worried you might smell like coffee? Don’t! The coffee scent serves as a wonderful wake-up call to your senses as you open the jar. The essential oils in the scrub leave your skin so unbelievably soft; you can skip the lotion. (Size- 250g)

MRP: Rs. 345/-

I loved the coffee SMELL in it…!! Its awesome..its a mix of coffee and sugar with some essential oils…but do not use it on your face as its a little coarse..its perfect for your feet,elbows,knees or areas where you got dry skin. It does not make your skin dry too as it has blend of oils in it..actually you can even make a similar version of it at home 🙂

Nourish: Lavender Vanilla Lotion

The clean, classic fragrance of lavender and the uplifting notes of vanilla. Mmmm. Transcendental! A lotion that reminds you of meadows and mists and mellow evenings. Lavender is believed to promote cell regeneration and reduce stress. A must-buy! (Size- 220g)

MRP: Rs 345/-

This again has an awesome lavender vanilla smell ! The smell lingers on for 2-3 hours…yes I do keep smelling it :p coz I am in love with the lavender smell these days..with my l’occitane lavender hand cream too 🙂
Its totally non greasy and gets absorbed easily..

Nourish: Rose Addiction Cocoa Body Butter

Buttering up your skin with Nourish Rose Addiction Cocoa Body Butter will pay off big-time! That is a promise. Especially recommended for moms-to-be to keep those ugly stretch marks at bay, and for dry itchy skin. For best results, apply to moist skin. (Size- 110g)

MRP: Rs.295/-

This is a nice body butter..not too thick nor too runny..spreads easily and gets absorbed too…It has that typical rose syrup smell..which does seem a little artificial..but its kinda ok.

tvam: Almond & Honey Face Scrub & Body Polisher

Almond & Honey Face Scrub & Body Polisher gently exfoliates and cleans your skin with soft almonds, natural Honey, aloe vera and rose water. Scrub away the dead layers to reveal sumptuous, revitalized skin! (Size- 50g)

MRP: Rs.285/-

Its gel like in consistency with very minute brown granules..has a sweet kinda smell..decent enough for everyday exfoliation too as its not at all harsh. Leaves skin supple and soft.

So overall the products on this site are quite nice and worth a try..do check out.
I would review a lip balm and a soap too..

They accept both credit cards and debit cards. Do check it out here
