Price
Rs 249 for 100ml

The Good
  • Smells wonderfully fresh and invigorating.It just jump starts my day.
  • It does a decent job of cleansing my face.After rinsing I do feel fresh and clean and my skin feels well hydrated and moisturised.
  • Unlike other foaming face cleansers(read Pond's white magic), this one does not dry out your skin which is good if you have dry to combination skin.
  • Good for removing makeup but you have to be careful around your eyes cause it stings a wee bit. 
The Bad
  • Kinda expensive for a face wash, which it actually is despite the fancy tag of "instant freshness foaming gel" .
  • Leaves that dreaded soapy film behind which is difficult to rinse off.Normally foaming cleansers are not known to do that but this one I guess is an exception.
  • You need quite an amount for it to foam up really well.With the Pond's face wash I need just about a pea sized blob to create foam for my entire face, this one on the other hand refuses to lather and foam until I have a huge coin sized blob of product.And even then the foam is mostly quite liquid if you know what I mean.This was the biggest disappointment.
  • Works for dry-combination skin but does not completely clean oily skin.
Love It Or Chuck It
I'm afraid I'll have to Chuck It.The reason I bought this in the first place was to basically find a good alternative to the Pond's white magic face wash and it did smell amazing at first.But I guess appearances can be deceptive.The tube hardly lasted a month and I'm glad I finished it up so quickly.It might work if you have dry skin or combination skin during winters but I would recommend getting 2 tubes of the Pond's one(100ml each) instead of one of these.
