HIMALAYA HERBALS PURIFYING NEEM SCRUB REVIEW

As you might be knowing that I totally love Himalaya Neem Face Pack. And now, it was time for me to try the Himalaya neem scrub too :P The neem face wash did not suit me much but this scrub is totally worth the money paid! So, let me begin the review of the Himalaya Herbals Purifying Neem Scrub and lets see how it worked for me acne prone, oily, sensitive skin...

My take on Himalaya Herbals Purifying Neem Scrub-

So, I bought this in my Khoobsurati.com Haul and have been using this twice every week since then. This neem face scrub comes in a white colored tube, with all information printed on it and with the trademark Himalaya green colored flip-open cap. The face exfoliator is travel friendly and is available in smaller sized tube too. It smells a bit bitter and creamy but the smell does not bother me much. However, some of you might not like it.

This face scrub is one of the good face scrubs and is creamy in consistency with orange and green colored scrubbing particles present in it. It spreads easily onto the skin and scrubbing with it is really easy and it did not cause any irritation to my skin neither did it cause any break outs.

I use this to a maximum of twice every week and it really helps my skin to remain clean, soft, smooth and supple. It removes all the dead skin cells and keeps my skin radiant. It helps in unclogging the pores and it is hypo-allergic and dermatologically tested. Now, I have to say that it did remove some of my blackheads and keeps my skin almost free from them. It helps in preventing pimples to an extent too and the softness lasts for like 3 days. However, do not expect it to remove the stubborn blackheads because it did not help me with that. Overall, this neem scrub is a good one and I have already repurchased it and would continue to do so till I find a better scrub than this.

PROS-

1) Travel friendly
2) Affordable
3) Smells mild and nice
4) Did not cause anybreak outs and did not irritate my skin
5) Makes my skin soft, smooth and supple
6) Effect lasts for 3 days
7) Removes mild blackheads
8) Prevents pimples to an extent
9) Unclogs the pores
10) Mild to my sensitive skin
11) Easily available

CONS-

1) Don't expect it to remove stubborn blackheads
2) Contains Parabens
3) Slightly dries out the skin
4) Fragrance might bother some

Final verdict- I am currently in love with this face scrub from Himalaya and would continue to buy it over and over again till I find something even better! It does what it claims and keeps my skin glowing and soft. It does remove mild blackheads but does not do much for harsh, stubborn blackheads. It did not irritate my skin and  the creamy consistency is really good. Overall, this Himalaya face scrub is a must buy and must try!

Rating- 4.5/5
