MY REVIEW

INGREDIENT LIST

Water (Aqua), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Decyl Glucoside, PEG-150 Pentaerythrityl Tetrastearate, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract (Chamomile), Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract (Green Tea), Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Extract, Glycerin, Macadamia Ternifolia Seed Oil, Rosa Canina Fruit Oil (Rosehip), Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil, Citrus Tangerina (Tangerine) Peel Oil, Citrus Nobilis (Mandarin Orange) Peel Oil, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Vanillin, Vanilla Planifolia Fruit Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Benzyl Alcohol, Limonene*, Linalool*. *Natural component of essential oils.

Ingredients such as Aloe vera, Cammomile extract, Green Tea, Witch Hazel, Glycerin, Macadamia seed oil, Rose Hip oil, Evening Primrose Oil are excellent for treatment of dehydrated skin, adding more hydration whilst cleansing of the skin helps protect and build the skin’s barrier against trans epidermal water loss (water lost from the skin because of lack of oil barrier and protection resulting in dehydrated crappy looking skin)

All the ingredients are natural and safe not only for the skin but also for the atmosphere. Using ingredients that are biodegradable and renewable materials the brand shows respect to the environment.

OVERVIEW

It is a cleanser, meaning it helps with removing dirt, excess oils and makeup off the skin.

It is a gel based formula, making it more suitable for normal to oily or combination skin types. It is gentle on the skin & It does not feel drying. Which makes it suitable for most sensitive skin types as well. As sensitive skin is already lacking a barrier and needs gentle products that don’t strip away their protective natural oils, keeping the skin intact from any further sensitivity. As it includes natural ingredients there is a faint smell to the product, which particularly does not bother me as having a product with added fragrance can be irritating to the skin and may cause an inflammation. The skin feels soft clean and well balanced after use

HOW TO USE IT

It is to be used like a regular face wash, Massage the product and loosen the debris on the skin, then rinse with plenty of water until all the lather is gone and pat dry the skin.

#1 TIP: USE THE CLEANSER ON DRY SKIN AND MASSAGE FOR A MINUTE OR TWO UNTIL ITS TACKY AND THEN ADD WATER AND MASSAGE MORE AS YOU RINSE THE LATHER AWAY. HELPS IN CLEANING THE SKIN THOROUGHLY

#2 TIP: ALWAYS WASH YOUR FACE TWICE, DOUBLE CLEANSE TO MAKE SURE THE SKIN IS THOROUGHLY CLEANSED. AS CLEAN SKIN WILL MAKE SURE ALL THE PRODUCTS USED ON TOP PENETRATE DEEPLY.

SAFETY AND EFFICACY – ANY REACTIONS OR ADVERSE EFFECTS

Personally I haven’t had any trouble while using the product. It is very safe and gentle to use. It does not strip the skin’s natural oils and the ingredients are all free of harsh chemicals that cause a problem to the skin in long term use.

AVAILIBILITY

Sukin is available on Nykaa website and Nykaa Stores. It is not available in the local markets or shops. The availability is figuratively good on nykaa and It has never been out of stock.

PRICE

SUKIN FOAMING FACIAL CLEANSER RETAILS Rs. 850/- for 125ml

Price isn’t too costly compared to the how good the ingredients are and how the product has been designed to be earth friendly and health friendly.

WILL I REPURCHASE

I will definitely be leaning towards purchasing this product again especially for days when my skin needs a breather when I want to stop using any kind of products that contain Aha’s Bha’s peeling ingredients etc.
