Hey lovelies,
I am in North, Jhansi…my hometown ….enjoying the chilly winters (okay it’s not too cold here but good enough for Mumbaikars!!!!) I am here for a cousins wedding so the fun gets doubled. Having a gala time here….enjoying with my family,shopping,deciding dresses, visiting boutiques, chit chatting with cousins, slumber parties, preparing functions list,rehersing for the performances uffffff!!!!!! Lots going on here.
Today I will be talking about the Khadi age control Sandalwood cream. Basically I have no story behind the product because I did not buy it. It was a gifted stuff. My first ever from the Khadi range of products but since I knew that they are handmade and 100% natural, I wasn’t scared of using it. I have two experiences with the product so it was kinda difficult to reach to a conclusion.
WHAT THE PRODUCT CLAIMS:-
Sandalwood age control cream is made up by using herbal ingredients keeping them completely natural. Specially made to eradicate the signs of aging and bring back youthful charm to your skin.
- Made with sandalwood, almond oil, Tulsi, anantmool & vitaminE oil.
- The cream will certainly revitalize your youthful complexion
- Ayurvedic formula for all age groups
- Usable in all seasons
- No artificial colour or ingredients
PRICE: RS, 110
QUANTITY: 50 GMS
SHELF LIFE: 2 YRS.
INGREDIENTS: Refer to the pic below 🙂
My experience with Khadi Age Control Sandalwood Cream
The Khadi sandalwood cream is a thick off white colored cream in a small tub which needless to say smells of sandalwood. The smell is strong and ones who don’t like this smell can stay away from this one. however if you have the amount of tolerance, it fades away within 10 minutes.
Anti ageing creams make me feel so old but this one was not that typical anti- ageing cream which is meant to reduce wrinkles and all, its basically for a radiant youthful skin and for all age groups ( note: AA creams should be started from your mid twenties) .
Take 1: I was in Mumbai when I tried this product. My skin is normal and dries slightly in the winter months so this was the best time to try out a heavy cream like this. I used it and it was just not ready to sink in. it took about 30 seconds to get absorbed and felt quite sticky. I thought that it says it’s a massage cream so let’s be fair because massage creams do take some time to penetrate in the skin but the after effects were also not rewarding. My skin felt sweaty and greasy. It felt quite heavy and when I stepped out of the house it attracted dirt which is something no one desires. Needless to say I did not use it again.
Take 2: I don’t know what struck my mind and I kept this cream when I was packing stuff for Jhansi (that’s how I always have excess baggage )but when I came here my skin was superdry so I applied this cream to combat the dryness and looking at the results I felt that I was using some other cream. It absorbed quickly, took care of the dryness and kept my skin hydrated and glowing. It did not feel greasy at all and I am happily using it every day.
Swatch
TURN ON: Khadi Age Control Sandalwood Cream
1) Its affordable.
2) Handmade
3) Natural

6) Good as a massage cream
TURN OFF: Khadi Age Control Sandalwood Cream

2) Tub packaging is unhygienic.
3) Not at all for oily/normal skin
COSMOCHICS RATING: I had two different experiences so very difficult to rate
Normal skin wise: 2/5
Dry skin wise: 4.6/5
“INFO ON A SILVER PLATTER”- if you have a very dry skin and looking for a good cost effective moisturizing cream then this is a good deal. Oily skin gurlies….stay away!!!!
