Makari Clarifying Cream (Hand, Foot and Elbow) {Product Review}

I used these sample also during my small vacation. The review is a little late in coming though coz it completely slipped from my mind.

Price: 1600 INR

Ingredients 

My Experience
I mainly used the cream only on my hands. Now, the cream is really thick and really creamy. So, the problem with the cream is that it becomes too sticky for the hands but it definitely is a good cream for feet coz of its thickness. I didn't even feel like using it coz of its thickness. 

My Recommendation
It is a good cream for feet but very heavy for normal skin. If you have extra dry hands and feet, then this product is for you.

You can read my reviews on the Makari Exfoliating Antisceptic Soap and the Makari Acnyl Cream too and do have a look at their website for information on their complete range of products. Their whitening product range is pretty famous.

Makari Creme Clear ACNYL Cream {Product Review}

I could not review this because I do not suffer from breakouts regularly but recently a few days back, I felt a painful bump on my neck so I thought of giving this cream a try.

Price: 3000 INR (though I am not very sure)

Ingredients
Has Parabens but which product doesn't have them??
My Experience
I used only one sample (5 ml) and it lasted me for around 5 days and that too I used in excess. It is a very thick cream and very little is required to cover the face and neck. And, the best part is that the bump disappeared within two nights of application.And, I had stopped using the cream after the bump disappeared but the bump did not come back. So, yup, it is definitely an amazing product for people who suffer from acne. It doesn't make the face sticky though the cream is little creamy in texture but applying the right amount of cream doesn't make the face oily.

My Recommendation
It really helps the problem skin so if you can afford it, you should definitely try this out!!! And, you can also look in their site for information on entire range of products they have.

Makari Clarifying Exfoliating Antisceptic Soap {Product Review}

So, I had said that I would review the soap on 30th. I am a little late in posting the review coz I am not well these days. The heat is so bad here, I just wanna get out of Hyderabad. Anyways, so getting back to the review.

Price: 800 INR for 200 gms

Ingredients
Sorry for the bad pic but the lighting was horrible and I couldn't keep the camera stable or something. Some of the ingredients of the product are natural. It has mulberry root extract, palm kernel acid  and palm acid (which in common terms means palm kernel oil and palm oil, anyways palm oil is an endangered product now so these ingredients should not be encouraged) and apricot kernel oil. 

My Experience
The first thing you will notice about the soap is its unique shape which makes it pretty handy too. I used the soap mainly on the face and arms. The soap is very creamy and foams a lot. The company advises to leave the foam on the skin for 5 minutes for better whitening effects so I followed that advise. Since, I had said that these days I am having a combination skin so sometimes the foam tends to make my skin dry and sometimes it leaves it moisturized. It does make the skin very soft and leaves it looking a little brightened. It cleanses the skin very well and also reduces the blackheads and whiteheads. My whiteheads had disappeared pretty quickly and blackheads had reduced to quite an extent. 

The best part of the soap is yet to come. I had an acne attack a few weeks back. So, there was a little bump left on the right side of my cheek since the acne cyst had not burst out. The bump had been there since quite a long time. And, since I have started using the soap, the bump disappeared within a week or so. So, yup the soap is antiseptic and it really works. And, I did not get any more acne also. Now, coming to the look and feel of the soap, the soap feels creamy, lathers quite easily and it smells really nice. The small granules which you can see in the soap are a little harsh when they are inside the soap but when they drop out in your hands, they are not at all harsh. So, that can be a little problem. But, the soap exfoliates well and leaves the whole body squeaky clean without leaving any residue or film on the skin. It doesn't even make the skin feel stretchy like some soaps do. So, overall, I really liked the soap. It even lasts long. I have been using it regularly since 3 weeks and half of the soap is still left.

My Recommendation
I am kind of two minded about the soap because of its price. It is definitely very costly by the Indian standards. Makari de Suisse is a high-end line in UK and US and it has been specially created for colored skin to reduce the melanin content. They do have a great product line which looks pretty tempting. Well, it does sound pretty racist to me but can't blame the company for that. It was the sentiment of the people. Otherwise, the soap is really good and worth a try coz it does control tanning. 

PS: The product was sent to me by the brand for consideration. All opinions are from my own experience.

Makari de Suisse Goodies

Box of Goodies :)
Hey guys!!! How are you all doing??? So, guess what?? Today's post is just some goodies sent from Makari (muh-ka-ree). This high-end product line was specially created for the colored population in US and Europe. They claim to be the world's largest range of skin whitening products and their products can lighten the skin up to five shades. Now, thats a lot of claim definitely but on a serious note, the site and products seem pretty impressive. Have a look at their site here.Now, let us have a look at what all they sent me!!!

Hands, Elbow and Foot clarifying cream - 4 samples of 5ml each
Acnyl Cream for pimples and breakouts - 4 samples of 5ml each
Makari Clarifying exfoliating antiseptic soap - 2 soaps of 30 gms each
I read on their site that their products show results within 2-4 weeks. So, to be on the safe side, I shall review the soap in 3 weeks exactly from today (on 30th March). I have started using the soap and I would say that the first use was great. I am using it just on my face. And, it takes very little soap for the face but leaves the face extremely soft and moisturized and visibly brighter. So, I am hoping good results from it :)
