Chemist at Play Acne Control Face Serum Review

Hello my dear Readers, Namaste for visiting my blog. Today I would like to review a skin care product which I had bought for my stubborn acne. This is the treatment product which I had bought in hopes that it will treat my cystic acne.

Key Ingredients and Claims

My take on the product

As we can see this product consists of 10% niacinamide and 10 % azelaic acid as main ingredients and have to be used daily for the desired effects.

As per sources, Niacinamide (also k/a Vit B3) is favourite for every dermatologist which is mainly used as a brightening agent. It even helps in evening out skin tone, reducing acne and preventing the signs of ageing. Azelaic acid is a dicarboxylic acid which is used to treat mild to moderate comedonal and inflammatory acne. It is also an effective topical treatment for rosacea. When these are used in combination, the skin melasma can also be treated.

When I had bought this product for my use; I started using this Chemist At Play serum daily in my night routine as for my morning skincare routine, I prefer it to be simple. While using this product daily, My skin flared up and my acne didn’t resolve infact the concentration of the heavy ingredients felt extremely heavy on my skin. Hence, I reduced it to two times a week.

When I did this; my skin got healed, my oiliness reduced and even my skin started becoming clearer. I just started loving my skin again. Subsequently now I’m down to the last drop and I have completed this product.

In final words, I 100% recommend its use. But for these kind of products; where active ingredients are in higher concentration. It is important to start slow since these are chemicals and might react with your skin.

Pros: affordable; love the scent; has a dropper; true to its claims.

Cons: available only online; can be irritating to some skin types.

In final words, I really enjoyed using it and 100% recommend using it.

Thank you for staying till end and hope to see you soon in my next blog post.

Review of The Mom’s Co Vitamin C face wash

Today I would like to review a product which I had bought from Nykaa website when I was pregnant with my baby girl. This product The Mom’s Co Vitamin C Face wash looked quite interesting to me. Let’s see how it went on my skin.

Key Ingredients and claims

My take on the product: As we all know that I have a very oily acne prone skin and despite during my pregnancy months, I still felt huge amount of acne popping up. Moreover they had been extremely painful. So when I saw this product, I really had to try this. So does it work.

First of all the texture of the product was gel kind and the lather it provided was quite foamy. It cleansed out my skin and made my skin fresh.

I had applied this product daily morning and night and it gave me a very natural glow. Now lets move to the real claim, did it even out my acne marks. My scars never really did go away and my acne also never healed. This product only did the work of cleansing and went no further. Hence I was quite disappointed in using it.

Do I recommend this product? It can be used by people who have normal to combination skin and those who don’t have acne prone skin.

In final words, I did enjoy it and would definitely repurchase it.

See you guys soon in my next post. Please refer to my instagram blog as well. Thank you.

Review of Astaberry Wine face wash

Astaberry age defying wine face wash

Reviewing Astaberry Age Defying Wine Face wash.


Since my skin is oily and Suffers from hormonal acne; I was in a desperate hunt for a face wash which would moisturize my face, won’t dry it out or cause any acne and at the same time cleanses out my skin.

Key ingredients and claims

This wine face wash claims to contain red grapes extract which might help in removing surface fine lines and improving the skin elasticity.
This was the product which was featured in one of my Instagram reels. Do I loved using it?

🍷 The scent of the product is very overpowering. It makes my nose itchy too and I have to take time for some adjustment.

🍷 packaging is travel friendly and leak proof. One can easily see the amount of product being used up.

🍷It lathers well keeping my skin clean, moisturized and fresh.

🍷 This product didn’t break out on me and I felt like it did its job well in being a cleanser. It’s just an average cleanser which is easily available and is affordable on budget.

Do I recommend it? I seriously don’t recommend it to sensitive skinned people as its scent is extremely odorous and it might affect them. And this quality of the product outweighs the benefits which it provides. #purchasedmyself

Naturali Damage Repair Shampoo Review

Reviewing Naturali Damage Repair Shampoo, as we all saw the tv advertisement of this shampoo clearly stating on how it effectively cleanses hair in return making them healthier and shinier than before. I myself was fascinated with the ad and hence wanted to try a new haircare product.


Lets see how it fared on me.

🤎 The packaging of the product is opaque so I can’t see the amount of the product.
🤎 I have used this product as a stand alone and as well as along with my conditioner. By using it without any conditioner: it makes my hair clean and healthy. Although the moisturization is required, I can still feel It definitely made my hair smooth.
Of course with the conditioner: my hair feels incredibly smooth, shiny and frizz free. It can easily be my go to product during these hot humid months. Therefore, I really loved using this product even though being a shampoo it cannot reverse the damage but I am definitely gonna repurchase it.

Pros: easily available, even without conditioner it helped smoothened out my hair, cruelty free.

Cons: cannot comment on reversing the damage of hair since its a shampoo and it works only on the surface.

Thank you guys for reading till end. See you soon in my next post.

Kaya Youth Hydro Replenish Refreshing facial mist Review

During these summer months some of us like to use facial mists on skin, I was on a hunt on finding one. So I had bought it and have been using it continuously for a month and therefore I think I can share my experience for the same.

🌿 The packaging of the product is in a pump dispenser which makes it easy for me to directly spray it on my skin. The mist is also quite fine and feels refreshing onto the skin.

🌿 The scent is similar to that of @kayayouth hydro replenish sleeping pack which was also another wonderful product from the brand that I had reviewed on my wordpress blog.

🌿 I have an oily skin which is prone to deep cystic acne therefore trying various products can be tricky for my skin but this mist actually helps in making my skin feel fresh and have relieved my existing acne. Obviously, it hasn’t cured them but I can definitely see the glow it provides. So guys, I definitely recommend using this product but sadly they have stopped their production.

Pros: affordable, true to its claims, refreshing
Cons: availability is online

Thank you for reading my post till end. Hope to see you soon. #purchased

Do they make me reject myself everyday? I would say No. Even though it has been more than 10 years for me to suffer, I have come to accept them as a part of me but I still long for that clear acne free skin. Therefore here I am with a review.

This was the sample product which I had gotten from Smytten app and I was able to use it for 25 times. The packaging of the product is made of plastic and I can’t see the amount of product left in the tube. The scent is that of tea tree essential oil. I love the scent. This product has worked wonders for my skin. It deep cleanses my skin making it silky soft and my acne also reduced to a great extent. I truly loved this product and would definitely recommend oily skin people to try it.

Pros: true to its claims; scent is heavenly; deep cleanses the skin well.

In final words, This face wash is a boon for oily skinned people and it’s definitely a good one.

Swiss Beauty 24 k Gold skin care serum Review

Hello all, Today I would like to review a product which I had gotten from Swiss beauty The Golden skin serum.

Key ingredients and claims

My experience: After doing my regular skincare routine, I would apply it after toning the skin. The texture is quite perfect for a serum and is not too runny. There are very beautiful gold flakes in the serum which gets dissolved when we apply on the skin. Packaging is made of glass. So, it might not be travel friendly. The dropper is perfect for accuracy and thus the leakage is prevented. I religiously used it and can safely say that, I really enjoyed using it. There were mild changes on the skin in terms of moisturization but my pigmentation stayed put.

Pros: moisturized my skin fairly well; worked perfectly for oily skin; affordable; scent was also not too overwhelming

Cons: not easily available.

In final words, I definitely recommend this product as a great daily night face serum.

Thank you guys for staying till end and see you soon in my next post.

Modicare Fruit of the Earth Face pack with Neem and Rosemary Review

Today I would like to review a face pack from the brand the modicare and it is Fruitof the Earth face pack with Neem and rosemary. Since I am an acne prone girl, I was in dire need of a pack which could help in soothing and relieving my acne and did it work on me. Let’s see.

Key ingredients and claims:

Packaging is in tube form which makes it easier for me to take out the product. Since it is readymade, it prevents me from hassles of mixing and finding the ingredients.

It has a scent consisting of rosemary which makes it very pleasant to apply.

I apply this face pack two times a week after cleansing and scrubbing the face. After applying an even layer, I wait for it to dry. While it is drying, it gives off the cooling sensation which lingers on till the end. Moreover there is no stretchy feel to the skin which we get usually with clay face masks. With its regular usage, I have felt that my acne has been smoothened out, the pus has gone and the skin doesn’t feel extremely dry.

I actually enjoy using this product and highly recommend it.

Thank you for staying till end. I Hope to see you soon guys in my next post.

Bella vita organic Papyblem face gel cream review

Hello my dear readers, Today I would like to review another face product which is from brand Bella Vita Organic (for more one can click on the link provided) and that is Bella Vita Organic Papyblem face gel creme.

The cream claims to be helpful in clearing pigmentation while providing youthful and blemish free skin.

Key ingredients: please refer to the picture

Packaging of the product is made up of glass which can be reused for further uses.

Scent of the cream is kind of pleasant and might be overwhelming for sensitive noses.

Texture is kind of aloe gel type and when you apply onto the skin, you get that sticky feel. But this stickiness resolves when the product is applied after face serum.

I incorporated this cream only in my night time routine since it was meant for removing blemishes and pigmentation. I would apply after cleansing, toning following up with face serum which is then I’ll add this cream.

The blemishes didn’t clear or my pigmentation stayed put the way it was before. Although it was moisturising but then, nothing happened. I definitely regretted this purchase.

Pros: ayurvedic, glass packaging, cruelty free, moisturising

Cons: didn’t do anything to my face, online availability
