Good day friends. I have combination oily skin, so I always apply aloe vera gel every time I wash face, especially in the summer months. Previously I have used aloevera gel from the brand Aloe Veda and also from Oriflame, this summer I thought of trying a different brand. And after searching a lot, I bought Nature’s Essence Aloevera Gel. So, today I will review this product for you.
Price : Rs.150 for 200 gm; Buy : Amazon.in
Claims of the Gel:
Aloe Vera is a world renowned plant for its cosmetic and medicinal miracle properties. Nature’s Essence Aloe Vera uses the goodness of this miracle plant from its natural sources along with modern manufacturing processes to offer you a treatment moisturizing gel ideal for softening the skin, protecting it from sun damage and acting as a guard and immunizing agent against skin ailments like dry skin, acne 7 itchy skin conditions. The gel is an ideal solution for gifting you soft, glowing and pampered skin.
Key Ingredients:
Aloe Vera extracts & Peppermint oil, Demineralized water. No detailed ingredients list provided!
Usage Directions:
Apply the gel after cleansing your face and massage the softly into the skin for softening & protecting it against environmental pollutions. Ideal to be used every day.
Shelf life:
36 months.
My Take on Nature’s Essence Aloe Vera Gel:
The gel comes in a round pot. The gel is a transparent, in not-too-thick consistency. It smells very pleasant, very mild. While applying, the gel might seem little bit less thick than other aloe vera gels, but it is very easy to spread on the skin. It is not at all greasy, very light gel. It also gives an instant glow to my face and looks very fresh.
It controls oil for a very good period of time. But, the times when applied a bit more than a pea size amount, after sometime, my face becomes somewhat sticky, not oily. The pot has huge amount, will survive my two summers. It keeps skin soft and balanced in moisture for a long time. The pot is sure good for travel purposes. Sometimes, when I am going out for long hours, I keep it in my bag with other necessary products.
I love aloevera gels, and I loved Aloe Veda one. But, after using Nature’s Essence Aloevera Gel, I think I will continue it. It sure has some cons like absence of ingredient list, but for my combination skin, it never broke me out and it never made my skin dry. Though after 4-5 hours it makes my T-zone oily, it also makes my skin glow and soft. So, overall, it is a decent product and worth giving a try.
