My Experience With Forest Essentials Facial Ubtan Narangi & Nagkesar
Forest essentials Facial Ubtan is quite a blockbuster. After reading a lot about their unique products I bought Facial Ubtan
Narangi & Nagkesar and facial ubtan Multani Mitti.
Narangi & Nagkesar facial ubtan is prepared from fine ground herbs & flowers.
The packaging looks classy with a golden lid on top. This facial ubtan is a fine powder that has orange fragrance to it. Now it’s not just orange smell but I can smell some peculiar scent too. And this unusual smell can be very overpowering when the ubtan is applied on the face.
If you have the courage and the patience to bare such an odd fragrance then take my word your life would change and you would never part ways with Narangi & Nagkesar “facial Ubtan”!
To be honest I didn’t see a fantastic result after just one usage. I applied it on every second day for the first two weeks and then limited the use to two times in a week.
My skin looks fresher, clearer and healthier than before. It has that distinct “Tej” ( glow) to it that lacked due to poor diet and lack of sleep.
Narangi & Nagkesar facial ubtan is not super stretchy when dry as a face pack and can be used by all skin types. It is a dry powder that needs to be mixed with rose water/plain water/toner/yogurt/milk choose according to your preference.
It has lightened my skin tone though a bad black spot is so rigid that it didn’t go away.
The moisturizing properties in the face pack leave my skin soft everytime I use this ubtan. The scrub like particles in this facial ubtan gives a regular massage taking care of all the blackheads and dead skin cells, stimulating the facial skin and regenerating the dehydrated dull skin.

Final result! No editing done!
Turn On: Forest Essentials Facial Ubtan Narangi & Nagkesar
1) It rejuvenated and revitalized my dull looking face.
2) My sensitive skin loves it too.
3) Blackheads are less and the dead cells are… go going gone!
4) The scrub particles in it aren’t harsh on my skin and the right amount of pressure is needed to have a soft, moisturized skin.
5) Leaves my skin moisturized and not dry like a lot of packs that gives super stretchy feeling when dried.
6) This very facial ubtan comprises of neem, peel powder, citrus, cinnamon and many such natural ingredients that helps achieving a clearer healthy complexion!
7) An all in one product i.e. a nice face pack and a scrub/face wash. Use whichever way you want.
8) This would suit all skin types!
Turn Off: Forest Essentials Facial Ubtan Narangi & Nagkesar
1) Price maybe a concern for some.
2) The weird smell is a real patience tester and you gotta pass the test to enjoy the fruits of this facial ubtan! Or else sit with a 60 g tub and believe me the quantity that is provided is a lot! However, the smell now is not all that weird as I have opened the lid many times but yes for the first time its really strong!
3) The facial ubtan becomes like a dry paste that cannot be applied evenly on face in a layer. I have to work a thick layer on my face by patting it on my face. ( And maybe its because its an ubtan and not a face pack!)
“INFO ON A SILVER PLATTER”- Forest Essentials Facial Ubtan Narangi & Nagkesar can be applied as a face mask or use it as a face wash/scrub. I personally like it more like a face mask where I apply it on my face and once when it is dry, I rub off the pack in circular motion and this step scrubs away the dead skin from the face giving a much younger, softer and healthier skin. Regular usage of this facial ubtan has definitely brought a healthy glow on my face! It firms & tones just as it promised!

The good part about Forest Essentials products are that they are safe to use. Unlike the chemically enhanced products that give me more acne breakouts than benefiting my skin, I feel happy about FE products. Of course the price range might itch for some, but the products are really good.
