Review: Ayur Orange & Lemon Peel Mask
Where I bought: A medical store, NOIDA
Price: Rs. 35 for 50g
What it looks like:
Color of clay
Smells a bit chemically and strong smell of KaolinI have found this fragrance in many packs with Kaolin as an integral ingredient.
Buy-Me Factor: * The clean lively aroma extracts of orange and lemon peel lift the spirit, dispel the sluggishness and indecision, relieves the skin *dunno what it means*
* Calming and energizing recommended for all skin types-teenage years, beauty and well-bing, reproduction year.
// Orange: invigorating and refreshing to the skin
// Kaolin: repairing effects. Kaolin has excellent absorbent qualities. These qualities are used to draw out impurities and toxins as they are electromagnetic charged and thereby clear the skin of excess oil, dirt, pollutions and other waste materials.
// Calamine: Soothing Effects
Use-Me Tips: It's a treatment mask. Good for removing tan and purifying the skin.
* Spread a thin layer after cleansing. Keep it for 5-7 minutes.
* Rub in circulatory movements. Wash off well.
* USe moisturizer twice to lubricate sking after the mask.

Expires After: Best before 12 months
What I like about it: *I get a soothing effect on my face after applying. (I use it after a tired day.)
* It has cooling properties as if you've applied mint on your face.
* It doesn't dry your face. (So, using moisturizer twice is kind of negative BUT use a nice hydrating moisturizer or oil due to the absorbing quality of Kaolin. That absorbs the impurities, dust and extra oil on your face.)
* Since Use-me tips say that you are supposed to apply it on for 5-7 minutes, I chose it to keep in my handbag. Just in case!
I am sure many of us would prefer using face packs with soothing and cooling properties while travelling.
* Any Ayur products have never disappointed me so far but shampoo.
I still remember once I used Ayur shampoo. I was in shower and had to use one of the girl's Ayur shampoo because I ran out of my shampoo. It made my hair dry like straw. So i dread!!
What I don’t like about it: * I guess nothing about the face pack but what has been described on the tube (buy-me factors in red ). A few words don't make sense to me. (IMO)

Indian Beauties can buy it here: Drugstores, Medical Stores
Buy it online here: www.indiayogi.com
Would I buy it again: Yes, only because it's application time is 5-7 minutes and it does have soothing effects. This property is beneficial helpful for me because tireness affects my face more than my body. It shows!!
Other options to get rid of tireness on face is:
* Rose Water like Dabar Gulabari
* Splash of Cold water
*Wet Tissues
*Hydrating Sprays like Vichy Thermal Spa Water. Click here for more.

There's something about it!
I am fond of beautiful pictures like all of you and there are many pictures that remind of something or the other. Some good times and some bad times. So did this picture!! It makes me smile and takes me to my childhood times Because of three reasons:
1- This dress reminds me of my red frock (sans the bow) I loved and loved so much that i never worn but kept it "as it was". Sadly one day my mum gave it away as i had grown up and she thought that I didn't have any attachment to that frock. I was crushed and so was my mother: when she knew that that frock was always on my mind. I am really unsure why that frock was dear to me but as I have grown up more, I realize that we humans tend to like/love something to death and that too without a reason.
2- White shoes!! It simply reminds me of my school days. We used to wear white shoes on every Saturday and we were crazy after the whiteness of our shoes. There used to be unseen doubts about "my shoes is not that white" so we used white chalk in the class to make it whiter. Before the classes started, chalks were finished. lol
3- The place behind the pretty girl. Awww, It is exactly like the place where my childhood friends and i used to play. Just remove that picture on the right. Everything was the same. Unbelievable.
Last but not the least, I am always attracted by innocent smiles of grown-ups (Who isn't?). I know there are many grown up faces with innocent smiles but I thought of adding this too. It's true "A smile is contagious."
So smile, sweets!!
What was your fav "thing/stuff" of your childhood you still remmeber?

Saturday Tonic: Coffee for Hair
I am really fond of natural conditioners and hair tonic.
Note: Natural/Organic materials cause allergy that you may not be aware of, so you should be cautious why you get those acnes/itch sometimes.
For example: Neem suplements, brinjal/egg plant/aubergine cause itching in some people that I know of. Gram Flour/Chickpea flour/besan cause rashes on my face for a little time (for15-20 minutes because of (may be) the oil absorbing property of Gram Flour).
So let your hair drink coffee today.
You want:
~Coffee
You make:
~a strong espresso.
~If you don't have machine I'd suggest mix 4 spoons of coffee with hot water.
~Let it cool until only warm.
~ Apply the coffee to dry hair and rinse with warm water after 20 minutes.
~ See the shine, sunshines. :)
P.S. It isn't bad to use manufactured products. But it's always good to use natural products whenever you can and your time allows. The best part of natural products are they don't come with an expiry date. They have life of their own.
