Blue Nectar Ayurvedic Brightening & Radiance Face Scrub with Kumkumadi Tailam (16 Herbs, 50g)

Due to the nature of my work, I am occasionally deprived of sleep plus I have to sit for hours in front of my PC. As a result of this I developed big dark cirlces around my eyes since last few months. On one hand I wanted to get rid of those dark circles but on other, I was skeptical to try cosmetic products as they contain several harmful chemicals which do more harm as time passes. I chose this product instead of others for a simple reason that it does not contain parabens.I am very particular about what is being put on my skin. If you study the ingredients of several popular brands you would be surprised that they consist of several harmful chemicals like: Liquid paraffin, Titanium Dioxide, Triethanolamine, Methyl Paraben, Triclosan, Propyl Paraben, Sodium Ascorbyl Phospate and dozens of other chemicals which do more harm than good.Thankfully, this product is absolutely free of parabens. The product consists of 16 vital Ayurvedic herbs. Main ingredients of this product are:- Kumkumadi Tailam -> lightens skin tone & improves blood circulation.- Sandalwood -> anti-bacterial & reduces signs of aging.- Kesar -> anti-inflammatory, lightenes the skin & fights acne.Other ingredients are almond oil, rose, sunflower, godhal flower, turmeric, anar, grapes, nut, olive oil. As you can see, it is 100% Ayurvedic and would therefore takes little time to work wonders. So, please keep your expectations reasonable. Do not expect that you would become 2X lighter after one application :D. Only chemical based product can achieve that. The outer cover of the product correctly labels "This is not a cosmetic product. It has therapeutic properties"Coming to the product - the packaging of the product (screenshots attached) is absolutely AMAZING! I have not seen a product better packaged than this till today. I think the outer box itself would be at least worth INR 50 & if that is the case I would advise the marketing team to reduce the quality of the box a bit and instead pass the money saved on the box container directly to customer in the form of reduction in price of the product :)Application process is fairly simple. Just use a generous amount of scrub and apply it on face in layers. Then massage it in upwards direction and circular direction on your dark circles. After few minutes wash your face with water (without soap).Pro(s):1. I did not have any side effects on my skin. I tend to develop acne as I am hypoallergenic to cosmetic products. So guys trust me when I say this product is suitable to all skin types it REALLY is!2. After using thrice a week for 2 weeks I can definitely see my skin brightening and dark circles reduction by 30%3. The smell of this product is AMAZING (of Kesar & Sandalwood). Further, the fragrance stays for 2-3 hours after you have washed your face. I would advise to only wash your face with water and not soap.4. I am very happy that the product itself comes in glass container as against plastic. It seems the manufacturer has paid attention to all tiny bits & bobs to avoid even the slighest niggles.Con(s):1. There is a discrepancy between the way the product is to be used. The outer packaging says it is to be used 2-3 times a week. However, the inner bottle cover says it is to be used daily. I am not sure which one is correct. To be on the safe side I only use it thrice a week even though it doesn't have any harmful chemicals.2. Product is slightly on the expensive side at INR 995 but I am happy since the manufacturer is directly selling it's products on Amazon without any intermediate retailers, it is able to provide attractive discounts. I would appreciate even more if some money is saved on packaging and instead the price is reduced.All in all I am very happy with my purchase.Buy with confidence!

This is an awesome face scrub, I am so glad that I found it. I have been using this product daily for the past 2 weeks and I am loving it. The first thing that I noticed about this product was its wonderful fragrance - it has a lovely pure sandalwood fragrance without any chemical odors. Second thing I noticed was that it feels wonderfully moist and rich when I scoop it in my fingers. It leaves my skin feeling soft and silky smooth after application. The granules in this scrub are very fine and perfect for exfoliating the face, so it does not damage your skin. I found it very effective - especially when most products do not work for my skin! My skin was very dull earlier, but now I can notice a noticeable glow in my skin after using this product for 2 weeks. To add to the charm of this product, the packaging is so beautiful and high-end. I am really happy with this product and would certainly buy it again.

This has been my first buy from this brand and I opted for a scrub as it’s KUMKUMADI infused with other herbs. First of all, the divine scent of this scrub is very pure which ultimately gave me the feeling of luxurious Ayurvedic product. The texture of this scrub is smooth and granules are not to harsh or mild. I found it effective on my skin as it cleanses thoroughly. The price is a bit expensive as per the net weight of 50gm but Really justifiable in terms of quality. Even the packaging is also very eye catchy whether I say about the cover or bottle itself. I am overall happy with my purchase of this scrub.

A "real" face scrub with some actual 'grit' to it is hard to find! This fits the bill, and yet it's very gentle on the face because the grit is so fine that it doesn't scratch the skin at all. In fact, I have to use quite a bit of pressure with my fingers to get the depth of exfoliation that my skin likes. For reference, I have somewhat oily skin that's also a bit sensitive. For me, a good scrub like this helps treat and prevent clogged pores, and keeps my complexion looking bright. It has truly herbal ingredients like Hibiscus Flower, Rose, Turmeric Lotus etc make it an effective face scrub for oily skin. I use this product 2-3 times a week for a gentle exfoliation. I’ve used products that are almost painful to use but this one is very gentle. I can tell my skin is smoother/soft after I use it.Scrub feels similar to high end products used during facials I've gotten. I would make sure to scrub very gently with your fingertips as this is a very abrasive scrub, then moisturize after. This scrub has worked well with my sensitive skin. Great for wintertime in combination with a good moisturizer.I'm seeing a difference in my skin already. Leaves my face feeling smooth and soft. This has definitely become part of my regular skin care routine and will continue to be part of it. I'm excited to see how my skin improves with continued used.There cream itself has a nice texture and pleasant smelling. The packaging is really awesome. Directions are clear as to the amount of times product should be used weekly.

Update after 1 month of usage: Absolutely love it, give me a salom facial finish, and make your skin extremely soft. It recommends daily usage, i use every 4-5 days.The packaging is so good! Feels like a luxury product and it is!! I’ve been using this of a couple of days now, it’s got great ingredients. It’s natural without all those chemicas and harmful microbeads that strip your skin down of any natural oils. I first wet my face and then use a tiny amount of the product, a little goes a long way here, then I scrub it down and leave it in for a minute or two (I try to use like a face pack as well) and then wash it off completely. The results it leaves is a moisturized and soft supple skin. Love the fresh glow it leaves after usage. I’m trying to find more and more natural alternatives and so far I’m loving this one.**If you found my review helpul in anyway please - Thumbs Up, If you have any questions - Ask**
