"Victoria`s Secret Body Mist Secret Charm Review"

Hi Everybody!!

This is my second buy from Victoria`s Secret Body Mist collection.. The VS Body Mist Day Dream disappointed me a lot. Since i had purchased them together i was skeptical about this one. Let me review this and see whether it was a hit /miss... Here we go......

Price: 722 INR

Victoria`s Secret Body Mist Secret Charm
What product claims:

Fragrance Mist Honeysuckle and Jasmine.....Honeysuckles are valued as garden plants, for their ability to cover unsightly walls and outbuildings, their profuse tubular flowers in summer, and the intense fragrance of many varieties....Jasmine flowers are white in color and smell great. Mostly grown in Asia, Australia and most of the Indian gardens have this plant...
Refreshing formula  is infused with conditioning Aloe Vera and calming Chamomile.. Spray on for a touch of scent....

My View:

The 1st one ie VS Body Mist Day Dream had disappointed me and i was not very interested / expected that this one will be good.. But to my surprise when i opened it and sprayed it , i smelt it again and again and was really charmed by the fragrance... Yes!!! this one lives to its name "Secret Charm"... This one did not disappoint me.. I am happy with this fragrance.. And the quantity is good for the price.... This particular fragrance lasts longer than the previous one i reviewed.. I personally do not know how honeysuckle plants flowers smell, but the jasmine smell in it charms a lot... It definitely draws attention. And also lasts for a decent time... Can use it daily as it is really a calming fragrance and does not irritate a hyper sensitive person like me... I wore it comfortably and it did not give me headache... It does not irritate skin and can be sprayed directly on body....I am happy with this fragrance but will search for another better fragrance in this collection as it offers a good quantity... Hope it stayed longer...:(

Pros:

  1. Does not irritate sensitive skin
  2. Does not cause headache
  3. Good quantity ie 250 ml
  4. Decent fragrance of Jasmine   
Cons:
  1. Hope it stayed longer
  2. Availability in stores is a problem
  3. I don`t know how honeysuckle flowers smell. No idea
  4. Offered at different prices on online shopping sites 


Recommendation:

I give this product 3.5/5. This did not disappoint me but neither impressed me so much.. I recommend this for people with sensitive skin and who do not like strong smelling fragrances...

Most of the people do not want to use highly loaded chemicals in Daily use products like face creams, face powder, moisturizers etc.. I too agree with this view. Nobody wants to load oneself daily with chemicals as it is not safe in the long run, yet we need some products daily/say they are necessary. We cant do without them right??In today`s polluted ambient we actually need to take a lot of care of our body and especially our skin needs to be take good care of..

"Victoria`s Secret Body Mist in Day Dream Review"

Hi Everybody!!

I have tried many deodorant sprays, perfumes and i was very eager to try body mists.. I had heard a lot about Victoria`s Secret Body Mists and was very very curious and excited to try them.. I was searching it on some online shopping sites and found a very good discount so thought i would buy... Let me review this for you today.. Read on to know more about.."Victoria`s Secret Pure Day Dream Body Mist"

Price: 720 INR

Victoria`s Secret Pure Day Dream Body Mist
What product claims:

Its a fragrance mist with pearl orchid and pink currant. Well i do not have much idea how a pearl orchid smells...Pink currant is a fruit, Pink Currants are intermediate between red and white types, in degree of pigmentation. Skin is colorless, flesh is pink.. 
Its a refreshing formula infused with conditioning Aloe Vera and calming Chamomile. Spary on for a touch of scent...

My View:

First when i opened and sprayed i immediately remembered a Deo spray, yes it smelt exactly like fogg (pink pack for woman)... I found nothing so special about this body mist.. Thought it is said that it is mild , the moment i sprayed it on i quiet had a headache and it irritated me a lot.. Though it settles down quickly and does not have overpowering smell, i seriously had lot of expectations but i was very disappointed by the smell... I had read very good reviews so with curiosity i purchased this only to get disappointed...Why buy this body mist if i can get the same fragrance at 180 INR in India????? I personally do not like this scent.. It depends on person to person.. The smell is fruity and i do not want to smell like a fruit...People who like fruity flavour can try this but i would still suggest that the same exactly smelling scented deo is available then why waste so much money for a average body mist???? The fogg deo spray which smells exactly like this is shown below:



Pros:

  1. Mild fruity flavour
  2. Does not irritate skin if sprayed directly on skin
  3. Does not have overpowering smell
Cons:
  1. Average smelling fruity flavour
  2. Lasts for nearly 2-3 hours only
  3. Not available easily in stores
  4. Smells strong immediately after spraying
  5. May cause headache for sensitive people


Recommendation: 

I was disappointed with the smell.. So it is just 2/5 for this.. I would still suggest gals not to spend so much money on this body mist.. Compare and buy...

"B Glow Radiance Day Cream Review"

Hi Everybody!!

Oily and sensitive skin is prone to acne.. It is a myth that oily skin does not need moisturizing at all. Acne prone skin people also need adequate moisture to keep the skin supple, young looking and keep it acne free..Acne prone people tend to concentrate more on getting rid of oily skin for this they use harsh soaps and face wash which tend to strip the skin of its necessary oils... And end up making the skin dry which in turn skin starts producing more oil to balance the system.. If skin is given right amount of moisture even if its oily skin, Skin will get the right balance of oil and hydration and skin finally becomes healthy and glowing and acne free...Let me review a product "B Glow Radiance Day Cream"

Price : 180 INR for 30g

My View:

The smell of the cream is so enchanting... It makes you feel like smelling it more and more.. I have very oily skin, within half an hour my skin looks shiny because of the oil even after applying only face powder... I was fed up and consulted my doctor. I used to feel very conscious while attending functions and kept away from any creams... Finally my skin feels hydrated, and oil balanced when i use this cream. Its a must try for people like me who have excess oily skin .. This cream does the work so nicely, my skin feels very comfortable..And i don`t have to worry at all.. Now my skin is soft, healthy, glowing...I love this cream. Its just perfect for my hyper oily skin...It has no side effects at all....Just has right balance of all ingredients needed to get rid of excess oil and acne..

MyCosmeticDiary: "ACNEREX SOAP REVIEW"

MyCosmeticDiary: "ACNEREX SOAP REVIEW": Hi Everybody!! I have been using acne care products since long time and they have given me many side effects like dry skin, pigmentation,...

"ACNEREX SOAP REVIEW"

Hi Everybody!!

I have been using acne care products since long time and they have given me many side effects like dry skin, pigmentation, redness of skin, sensitivity and many... Acne prone skin needs special care, right amount of moisturizing, cleansing and pampering.. I have oily skin and acne trouble but i finally found a solution to healthy skin.. Let me review a soap which helped me lot...So here we go.........

Price: 54.50 Rs

Acnerex soap review

Acnerex soap review


Ingredients List:

  1. Allantoin 0.2%
  2. Aloevera extract 10%
  3. Titanium Dioxide 0.25%


What product claims:

Well!!! there is noting much written on the packing.. Just says "Pimple care soap with moisturizing action ".. That is what we are looking for right!!! We need a soap that does not dry out our skin and cause more oil production... Am i right?

My view:

To get rid of acne i have been using many products my doctor suggests but sometimes i don`t have options but to use them and that makes me end up with super hyper sensitive skin, dryness, peeling, redness.. Which again worsen the condition. If skin becomes dry it triggers our body system to produce oil and our skin ends up becoming more oily causing break outs... So what is the solution for such problem???? You will say moisturizers , yes but how many such products are there which really suit oily skin??

I tried moisturizers but they made my skin look like a frying pan..:( I have since long time trying to find some water based moisturizers but failed to find one! Finally i came across this soap which i must say did a wonderful job for my skin...

It provides skin with just the right amount of moisture needed to keep it balance and supple....Skin looks radiant, young, soft.. If you have a  very oily and sensitive skin and do not want to use soaps that make your skin dry, this one is for you... I must say sometimes cheaper products do magic!! Give it a try and you will never stop using this soap.

Pros:

  1. Right balance of moisture for skin
  2. No harsh chemicals
  3. No side effects
  4. Very safe for all skin types
  5. Very affordable price
  6. You don`t need additional cream or moisturizer
Cons:
  1. Available only with medicals stores.


Recommendation: 

I would highly recommend this soap to acne prone sensitive oily skin, even dry skin people can use this soap and get good results.

5/5 for this wonderful product..
