I am usually too lazy to use face packs regularly. Amongst various reasons of not being too much into face packs - one of the major is that I am utterly a lazy person; second one is that, it is too much of work for me to keep track of dates and duration after which I should apply face pack. I usually apply them as and when I feel the need of one. Recently, on my trip to Ooty, I didn't carry any sunscreen lotion with me (a dumb mistake, I know), for the mere reason that last time on my trip there, I had faced only overcast and rain. So this time I didn't bother myself to increase the weight of my bag by carrying an extra sun block. As the fate works every time, this time I was greeted with ever shining sun in all its glory and I had to do trekking, paddle boating and all the walking outside under fierce sun rays. My skin as usual reacted in a light speed and got tanned within 2 days of sun exposure. After coming back I could see the severe tan and hence thought of using this H...

I bought this particular face pack in a combo pack that had this face pack and a cleansing water too, from Germany. There was no particular reason behind buying this pack, except for the fact that I was hunting for a decent face wash as I'd missed packing it in my bag. And I got this pack thinking that either of the both was a face wash! However this particular product can be used as facewash too, but I couldn't use it that way. I've been using it as face pack only. Today I'd be reviewing the face pack as I've used it many times in past couple of months and I somehow have liked the effects that it gave to my skin.
