Himalaya Herbals Almond and Cucumber Peel-off Mask- Review

Himalaya Herbals Almond and Cucumber Peel-off Mask- Review

Hey people,

I keep on trying different products from himalaya herbals these days. Some come out to be real good ones while some are real duds! I wanted to try my hands on some peel off masks and cucumber and almond sounded a great combo, so I purchased it immediately. Read on to know how it came out to be.

What the company claims: A rejuvinating mask that unclogs pores, peels away blemishes and leaves you with healthy firm and glowing skin. Almond nourishes, soothes and softens the skin. Cucumber tones your facial skin and provides a cooling effect. Pineapple removes impurities and dead cells, and firms up the skin. Indian gooseberry (amla) has cleansing and antioxidant properties.

Natural herbal formulations tend to change color over time. However, the product efficacy remains unchanged.

Key Ingredients: Almond, cucumber, indian gooseberry, pineapple.

Inactives: Methyl paraben IP, propyl paraben IP

Quantity: 100g.

Price: Rs.110

Shelf life: 3 years.

How to use: Apply evenly over cleansed face and neck, avoiding the area around the eyes. Allow it to dry for 10-15 minutes. Gently remove the peel from the side of the face. Use once or twice a week. Donot apply on broken or inflammed skin.

My take on the Almond & Cucumber Peel-off Mask:

It comes in a white and green tube packaging. The lid closes well and does not open on it’s own making it easy to carry while travelling. The mask is very light green in color. It smells of cucumber but its not a fresh smell like of the real cucumbers. It’s not that bad but it’s also not at all good, though some may like it. The consistency of the mask is thick, a bit difficult to spread. Spread it out evenly, neither too thick nor too thin layer, as thick layer took around 45 minutes to dry and thin layer does not peel off well. Normally it takes around 20 minutes to dry and then peel it off. The face feels fair, clean, soft, firm and rejuvinated but sadly the effect lasts only for few hours.

Pros:

-          Contains a lot of natural ingredients.

-          Cleanses the skin well.

-          Makes skin smooth, firm, soft and fair.

-          Inexpensive.

-          No harmful reactions

-          Travel friendly.

-          Hygeinic packing.

Cons:

-Contains parabens.

-Does not lives to it’s claims.

-The effect does not last long.

-You have to learn to take the right quantity and spread evenly.

-No cooling effect.

Rating: 2.8/5
