Vaseline Lip Therapy Rosy Lips Review

So I am a bit late in wishing a Happy New Year to my bloggies * random term just popped up in my mind right now to refer you, my blog friends...yes I am a crackhead! *. Nonetheless, hope you all have a great and fulfilling year! I hope to have one too. And just before I vanish again from B.B.B, here is a quick review on the latest entrant to my lipbalm stash, Vaseline Lip Therapy Rosy Lips!

PRICE:  ₹109

QUANTITY: 4g

INGREDIENTS:

WHAT IT CLAIMS: With Rosy Oils and Sweet Almonds, give a gorgeous, soft and rosy glow to your lips with a touch of moisture.

MY EXPERIENCE: Vaseline Lip Therapy Rosy Lips comes in a hygienic twist up packaging which is not flimsy at all and the stick doesn't look like it would fall off under stress or won't go back in if you twist up more than required. The stick is not waxy, and wouldn't melt or get hardened with temperature changes. It has a faint smell, though artificial but still nice to wear.It hydrates and soothes chapped lips but I felt it doesn't sink in your lips to moisturise from within. So it protects your lips from harsh dry wind but won't give that soft suppleness if your lips are already dry. But good thing is it stays quite long on lips. Bonus point, it has got SPF 15, so the bad sun won't make your lips any darker.     

Only gripe, though the name says Rosy Lips, there is absolutely no tint and doesn't give any color on your lips, which one the other hand makes it a good base for your lipsticks. Priced reasonably, this one wouldn't pinch your pocket much. On the go, 

WHAT I LIKED: 

• Hydrates and soothes chapped lips very well.
• Stays for a long time on lips compared to other balms.
• Hygienic, non-flimsy packaging.
• Added SPF 15.
• No OTT fragrance.
• Priced economically.
  

WHAT I DIDN’T LIKE:

• No rosy tint whatsoever.
• Doesn't moisturise lips from within IMO.
  

VERDICT: Lipbalms are a must this winter and this would fit in nicely in your stash and purse and give you your lips the necessary comfort. Let me know if you have tries it!

RATINGS:  4.25 out of 5

Vaseline Healthy White Lightening Visible Fairness Lotion Review

Hey ya girls! Here is my review on the new Vaseline Healthy White Lightening Visible Fairness Lotion that I have been using on the go for past few weeks.

PRICE:  ₹75

QUANTITY: 100 ml

INGREDIENTS:

WHAT IT CLAIMS:   

This range infused with Skin illuminating minerals, Vitamin B3 and Yogurt serum that go into different layers of epidermis to help re-lighten darkened skin cells, making your skin 4 times fairer and even-toned instantly.


MY EXPERIENCE: Honestly, I am a big fan of Vaseline body lotions and the Vaseline Healthy White Skin Lightening Body Milk has been my HG for so long. So I had high hopes from this new range as well. I kept the bottle in my bag for using it on the go (as it shows in the ad :P) and use it when my hands feel dry while sitting in the AC. The lotion comes in the regular flip cap bottle, it has a pinkish tint and is non greasy texturewise but takes a little extra rubbing to sink into skin.  

Right: Top: Swatch ;Bottom: After rubbing it in

Sadly, the pink tint gives a whitish cast for initial few minutes on my tanned hands and then disappears, while it doesn't quench the thirst of my dry skin. I won't say I have used it everyday regularly to see any long term effect but hey doesn't it say instant fairness? Only I get that whitish cast in the name of instant fairness! To sum it up,

WHAT I LIKED:

• Non greasy texture.
• Sinks into skin completely and feels light on skin. Perfect for summers.
• A subtle smell that won't bother your olfactory senses.
• Easily available.
• Doesn't hurt the pocket. 

WHAT I DIDN’T LIKE:

• Not adequately moisturising for dry skin.
• Didn't see any instant fairness apart from the initial whitish cast.

VERDICT: For me it didn't work that great as compared to the previous Vaseline Healthy White Skin Lightening Body Milk, which I am loyal to and still use everyday.

RATINGS:  3.75 out of 5

PR Info: This summer, love your skin with “Vaseline® Total Moisture™ Aloe Fresh with STRATYS-3 technology”

Do you think your skin needs care only during the winter? It is time to break the popular myth that moisturising is essential only during winter. Our skin needs care even during the hottest season of the year; as it loses moisture every minute, thus leaving it dry and de-hydrated. Creams / lotions without moisturising actives do not last long on our skin and are therefore needed to be re applied. For skin to look and feel healthy, penetration of moisture through its layers becomes of utmost importance. So look no further, as Vaseline® Total Moisture™ Aloe Fresh body lotion with STRATYS-3™ technology is the one stop solution for sheer hydration this summer that will keep your skin nourished, hydrated and refreshed for 24 hours.

Star ingredient

Aloe is the ultimate skin care treatment. It soothes, it softens and it moisturizes. Constant exposure to the sun dehydrates your skin, leaving it dry and dull. Aloe replenishes skin with its fast absorbing and non-sticky moisture, leaving your skin feeling fresh, cool and healthy. 

Breakthrough technology: STRATYS-3™

Creams / lotions without moisturising actives infuse glycerine in their products to attract and hold moisture, which sinks into the skin’s core while leaving the outermost surface layer vulnerable to water loss resulting in dry and unhealthy skin.  If the glycerine levels in the lotions are increased, it can result in the skin feeling sticky post application of the lotion. The STRATYS-3™ technology used in Vaseline® Total Moisture™ Aloe Fresh offers a better solution for delivering optimal hydration to all skin’s surface layers. Each ingredient in the Stratys-3™ complex is selected for its unique ability to work optimally at a specific layer of the skin. Hence, when combined into a lotion, it can effectively take care of the top, core and deep down layers of surface skin, delivering sheer hydration to all layers of the skin, evenly.

 Vaseline® Total Moisture™ Aloe Fresh has infused the goodness of Aloe Vera extracts with the winning formula of STRATYS-3™. It suspends moisture across the skin’s top, core and deep down layers, ensuring that the skin remains clean, cool and hydrated in summer, giving you an unmatched fresh feel, naturally.   

 

For best results, Vaseline® Total Moisture™ Aloe Fresh should be applied every day after taking a shower; as at this time the skin pores are open and will allow easy absorption of the lotion, into the skin’s core. Vaseline® Total Moisture™ Aloe Fresh keeps your skin hydrated for 24 hours without the need for it to be re-applied. It replenishes skin with a burst of sheer hydration. So, leave your skin worries to Vaseline® Total Moisture™ Aloe Fresh and be confident to go out this summer with beautiful skin.

First haul of 2013 ;)

These days I am leaning more towards skin care and hair care products, rather than make-up and cosmetics, and to prove it, see my first haul of 2013 ;)

Ordered some stuff from Medplusbeauty.com. Here is a sneak peek of my haul and upcoming reviews. ;)

What did I get?  

• ALOE VEDA CEDARWOOD LUXURY SHOWER GEL - I wanted to try a new shower gel and chose to try this brand! They have a lot of variants, but I chose the cedarwood one as it sounds quite woody and oriental. Hope the smell turns out to be as good.

 

• GATSBY SET & KEEP EXTREME HOLD SPRAY - I have suddenly got a new found interest in doing different hairstyles. So trying out a hair setting spray for the first time.

 

• TRESEMME CLIMATE CONTROL SHAMPOO  - Yep, got it at last. :P

 

• TRESEMME CLIMATE CONTROL CONDITIONER -  FREE! FREE! FREE! with the Shampoo. :P

 

• VASELINE TOTAL MOISTURE COCOA GLOW 24HR NOURISHING LOTION - My staple body lotion. :) Read my review on the same.
