review of "THEKARAJA COCONUT OIL" used for hair

THEKARAJA COCONUT OIL is an Ayurveda medicinal product for all hair related problems.... Used to control hair fall, dandruff.... Do not confuse this for a body massage oil :-) ....
You must have heard from many or seen on TV that one has to heat the oil and then apply on scalp to gain the maximum benefits of the product well that's true but what many don't know is that the benefits of product can be destroyed by over heating the oil...

The best way to use it is to apply the oil onto scalp of head and then to the hair... Massage well.... Now we take a towel and soak it in hot water, squeeze out excess water and wrap the hot towel around your head, keep it on till you feel the warmth and repeat the process for about half hour... Now let your scalp cool down so you wait for another half hour.... Now you are ready to take a head bath....
This oil works best when you use it everyday... I used it for 1 month continuously and saw a change in my hair fall / dandruff... Its natural if 100 strands of hair fall... I had more than that but now its reducing... After using it for a month and on all days of the week, I could reduce the usage to just 6 days of the week for the next month and 5days of the week on the next month and so on. .. Like so on every month go on reducing the usage... Usually not more than twice a week is needed to conditioner hair with oil... Effects vary from people to people you have to be patient to experience the benefits....

The oil contains thekaraja rasa , kera taila etc and prepared in coconut oil... Check to see if it reacts to your skin by doing a sample test... Usually Ayurveda products don't affect people but still no harm in doing a check.. Smell of the oil is not to strong but its not that kind of smell that you can sport around so very important to wash hair well otherwise you'll have an oily hair and the smell will linger...

The oil is 79rs ... Weighs 200ml .. Its packed in a plastic bottle (don't forget to recycle your bottle after its empty) ...

Its available in all Ayurveda stores... I got mine at OJAS ...
Its manufactured in Coimbatore and sold in Ojas if you want to buy it online the site is

REVIEW OF DOVE HAIR FALL THERAPY COMBING SERUM

DOVE HAIR FALL THERAPY COMBING SERUM is a beauty product which is used on one's hair to combat frizzes reduce the hair from getting tangled / prevent breakage, friction and also give the hair a smooth finish...
Yes it does all this but i want something that will also make my hair smooth and soft...

This can be used easily... After washing my hair i towel dry my hair and then apply a generous amount... About 4 pumps of the serum is sufficient... its always good to apply in sections...If you apply to much it tends to look oily and makes the hair flat since you have applied the product more... You can use this after every time you wash your hair...

This is a light weight serum, has a very pleasant smell which i am not able to pin point to what it resembles..

It weighs 40ml, MRP Rs. 250...

Its available in any pharmacy or beauty shop...

I got mine in my local pharmacy about a year ago...

My hunt for a hair serum is still on...

If any of you have used this let me know your views... If i have missed out on any info that you need please let me know and ill try to put that also up...

REVIEW OF LUSH PRODUCT CALLED OCEAN SALT

"OCEAN SALT" is a facial/cleanser scrub.. This is only used on the face.. The package says its used for removing dead skin & gives a complexion that glows..

As soon as i opened the pot i saw a nice blue colour, but the colour is not going to remove the dead skin is it... Upon ignoring the colour I noticed the salt content with the paste, they are not granulated equally at all.... The salt was also kind of separated from the paste so i had to mix it first... Then i applied it on my face {the bigger salt particles kept falling down} & i just instantaneously remembered my friends cat... I'm doing this comparing because my friends cat used to always scratch every1 and on applying the scrub to my face was like having scratch feeling and on top of it since my face skin got scratched it started to burn due to the presence of lime in the scrub... I just washed it of immediately... Yes my skin did feel softer later but at what cost...

Using this is no way different from other scrubs... 1st damped skin and then apply quantity needed for face and massage the scrub on skin {excluding the eyes} in clock/anti clock direction.. face needs to be scrubbed once in a week..

Lime, coconut, grapefruit, sea salt are all mixed together in stimulator to create this scrub.. when i smell the product i kind of get a citrus smell..

The product code of this is 232, weight is 120g, costs rs.860 .. It comes in a smaller pot container..

As i have mentioned in my earlier blog you can get the product in any of the store locations at your place... if you have already bought before and wanna buy another but you just don't have the time then you can mail order..

The store from which i bought, is located in FORUM MALL {Koramangala}..

I got it on 4/2/10/...

I'm sooo not happy with this product... I spent almost 900 rs and its just not living up to its level and now I'm stuck with it.. My hunt for a facial scrub continues...

For further info check out www.lushindia.com .......

Thanks for reading my blog, I hope the info i gave was helpful... If I have missed out on any piece of information do tell me know... I would really like your feedback, just leave them in the comments section..

I HAVE BOUGHT THIS PRODUCT WITH MY OWN MONEY AND IN NO WAY AM I AFFILIATED WITH THIS COMPANY .. I'M NOT PAID TO DO THIS BLOG.. AND THE REVIEW IS BASED ON MY HONEST UNBIASED OPINION..

REVIEW OF A LUSH PRODUCT CALLED JASMIN & HENNA FLUFF - EAZE

This is a pre shampoo hair moisturising treatment used on hair that has been subjected to heating products (like curling/straightening), bad weather, etc.. does not help for hair fall, dandruff..

I have started straightening my hair once a week... i do use a heat protector but the prob was that my hair tips started becoming like dry straw kind... what ever protector you use that's available in the market the tips tend to not agree with them... so when i came across this LUSH product i though ill give it a try... this hair moisturiser made my hair really soft, shiny and my hair tips are really healthy looking & don't look like straws...

Using this is really easy... its paste kind and its not too runny can easily apply with bare hands... before washing hair just pile generously on to hair (not on scalp), leave for 20 or 30 Min's.... trust me you'll know when its enough... shampoo off and follow what ever you do normally... this treatment should be done just once a week..

this nifty cosmetic contains henna, water, olive oil, ceterayl alcohol, sodium lauryl sulfate, benzyl alcohol, ylang oil, jasmine, wheatgerm oil, jojoba oil, almond oil, Brazil nut oil, coconut oil, organic hemp oil, soya oil, Castor oil,methylparaben, propylparaben... phew that's a mouth full of words...

the over all smell that i got was a nice mild jasmine scent, which is another factor that i liked... cos strong smells and me just does not work and also this fragrance is so calm like feeling...

code of the product is 2687, it weighs about 220g... its packed in a very nice long black pot which has a sticker stating by whom it was made by and when it was made and
on the packing it says that you will need 1 full pot for long hair... and i have like very long hair, its up to my waist and i have used this pot already like 4 times and i think that i can use it 2 more times... you see it depends on how thick you hair is and how you apply it.. now the crucial part, how much it costs... well when i saw the price 1st i was like wow!!! so much but then i also always try a product at least once if i don't have a nice 1 already.... when i bought it the cost was 1450 RS and i have already mentioned how many time i can use it, so technically speaking it cost me 242RS every time i use it & if i have to get this done in a spa I'm thinking it would cost me about 500RS at least soooo my point is that its not that bad....

as i have mentioned it my previous blog you can get the product in any of the store locations at your place .... if you have already bought before and wanna buy another and don't need the necessity to go to shop and check it out then you can just mail order..

the store from which i bought is located in FORUM MALL........

i got it on 4/2/10.......

I'm really happy with the output result of my hair so I'll definitely be buying this again after my pot gets over....

for further info check out www.lushindia.com

for any help you can also contact them +91 99455 46610.... this is sooo not a toll free number guys...

I hope the info I gave was helpful... If I have missed out something plzzz let me know so that I don't do the same mistake again... I would really like your feed back, so just leave them in the comments section...

WHAT ARE LUSH PRODUCTS

Now before I head onto reviewing LUSH products I would like to give some info to all the people who have not heard about LUSH....

This is a foreign based company & they saw a positive response from the public & I guess they just wanted to try if the stuff sells like hot cakes in India also ... They have 2 outlets in Bengaluru/ Kolkata, 1 in Delhi/ Gurgaon/ Ahmedabad & 3 in Mumbai...

Now a peek into the whole process... Lush makes products out of fresh fruits, veg's, essential oils, safe synthetics & they do not use animal ingredients... They buy ingredients needed from companies that don't do animal testing.... They make the products by hand & give a personal touch by mentioning which employee it was made and packed by which will further on be printed on the sticker and pasted with the product....

Every once in a while they come out with their own magazine called as LUSH TIMES in this they will feature all the products that they are selling along with information such as rates, ingredients used, comments from lush users, etc..

Now if you cant go to the shop or don't have one in your place they not to worry cos you can mail order the items....

LUSH has everything that a person needs like soap, bubble bars, shower gels, cleansers, toners, moisturizers, henna, etc, etc, etc.... They have not ignored the men, yes the range is less but at least its a start....

For further info go to www.lushindia.com

Now the final judgment call, lets check
varieties to choose from - good
quality - varies from product to product
product fragrances - good
product life - good
price - very very costly for the middle class Indian market

Hope the info was enough, thanks for reading my blog...

REVIEW OF "FASH" FACE WASH

This product is called fash, manufactured by the company CURATIO.. Available in your local medical store... M.R.P 149/- for 100ml..


Now if you are prone to acne or have necessity to wash your face like 3 to 4 times a day to remove the dirt/oil/etc. from your skin then this is a good deal.. I have been using this for about a year and my face is much clearer than it was before but my skin does have that skin stretching feeling/dryness and also it takes a bit more time to get the face wash out....


The usage is easy since it comes in an almost liquid gel form and packed in a tube, easy to carry around (don't leave it in your vechile which is not parked in shade the product will start to leak from tube, it happened to me once) and use when outside and need to freshen up :-) (don't forget it takes a bit more time to get the product off your face) ...
I leave my house @ 8am and return after 8pm only.. I wash my face in the morning, after lunch, in the evening, and before going to bed... So as I said, its easy to carry around & use it..


Now let me summarize the benefits of this product
1. its very mild and ideal (since its in a gel form & not a soap)
2. very skin friendly as it has ph of 5.5
3. does not dry or de-lipidate the skin
4. ideal for all seasons and skin types
5. controls acne
6. removes oiliness, dirt, sweat...

Yes it does all this but as i said it is drying up my skin a bit... But it might be correct for you, you'll never know until you try it... My hunt for a face wash is still on the go ....

what about you??...

REVIEW OF REMINGTON HAIR STRAIGHTENER

I bought this hair straightener manufactured by a company called REMINGTON from CROMA situated in STAR BAZAAR, koramangala..
The product is called
protect&shine
pro slim ceramic 230
model no: S2014 E51
M.R.P. - Rs 2999/-
The speciality of this gadget is that the plates are made of ceramic/tourmaline and coated with teflon..
This gives a much more shine and silky result to my hair than any other product, its because the plate has tourmaline.. Other benefits are that it took much lesser time to make my hair straight (its due to concentration of negative ions about which you will be reading further ahead), it takes about just 30secs for the straightener to heat up..
This product also has a temperaure dial (6 settings) to set the amount of heat needed as per our hair thickness.. The power cord is fitted in such a way that it does not get tangled up no matter how we twist or turn our straightener while using it on our hair.. It also has an easy to operate lock button so that while we are using it on our hair we dont have to hold it in closed position, we can just use the lock button..
Tourmaline (which is actually a stone) emits upto 6 times more negative ion and far infrared (FIR) rays.. Now dont be alarmed cos this is a good thing.. These ions are know for improving our circulation, releiving stress, increasing ones mental alertness an strengthening the function of our immune system an the FIR helps to lock in hair moisture, removes static which will prevent hair to frizz out..

If any of you have used this let me know your views... If Ii have missed out on any info that you need please let me know and i'll try to put that also up...

I have bought this product with my own money and in no way I'm affiliated with this company. I'm not paid to do this blog and the review is based on my honest unbiased opinion..
