Last time I had reviewed Forest Essentials Tejasvi ubtan which was meant for Dry skin beauties and this time I have something for sensitive/oily skin beauties:-Forest Essentials Narangi and Nagkesar Facial Ubtan.
Whenever
I visit FE, I don’t know why I feel so relaxed. The incense of store just makes
me go nuts and I always pick up something o other from their store. I bought
this Ubtan for my sister who has oily /sensitive skin unlike mine. I picked up
this ubtan from Select City Walk, Saket while I was there to visit Bobbi Brown
Store to pick up their so called Best seller Gel eyeliner. Review coming soon. Let’s
come to the Ubtan’s Review now. First tell me,
Do you
like oranges?
Do you
like smell of oranges at least?
Yes or no
whatever it is .This is what it smells like. The moment you open the lid of the
jar you will get strong citrus smell.Narangi means orange in Hindi so it had to smell like that.There is a pictorial representation of an orange tree on the outer cover as well as on the jar also.
PRODUCT: FOREST ESSENTIALS NARANGI AND NAGKESAR
FACIAL UBTAN

PLACE: You can locate store from HERE
PACKAGING: Nothing great but yes the color
is nice. It is pastel green in color. Its top lid is golden in color and an
inner lid is white in color which protects it from spilling while opening the

I totally ended up interviewing my sister for this. My sister’s
take on this product:-
Me: So you applied this on your face? How did you feel?
Sis: It is a very nice ubtan.Oh gosh!!! Am I not supposed to eat it?
It smells like oranges.A very fruity kind of smell.
Me: Of course silly. How did you apply it?
Sis: I took 2 spatulas of ubtan (she was feeling jealous because she
did not get any spatula with this ubtan, so I gave her mine to use. you can see
spatula here) then I mixed this ubtan with rose water.
Applied this paste on all over my face.
Kept it for 20 minutes.
Scrubbed nicely and then I washed it off.
Tadaaaa here I am...
Me:OMG!!1 you are glowing...
Sis: Yup.
Me: what difference did you notice in your face?
Sis: I am glowing. My skin has become soft.All my oil has been soaked up and am loving it.
So this ubtan could be used as scrub
also. It has very very fine granules which you can easily rub on your face
without exaggerating the process of scrubbing. Granules are very small and not
harsh at all.
She always applies this ubtan early
morning but on alternate days. But the glow doesn’t remain for longer period.
YAY
- Gives a nice glow to your face.
- Controls oil and greasiness to an extent.
- You need not buy scrub separately. It acts as a scrub also.
- Fragrance is good.
- Ingredients mentioned are good for skin.
- Its ayurvedic and not tested on animals.
- Gives soft and supple skin.
- Since she had no acne on her face, so can’t say much about that but yes it was able to control oil on her face so probably it will help you with acne also.
NAY
- Price could be an issue for some, but trust me it will last you for longer.
- I think One need not pay 695 for an oil controlling ubtan.One can prepare a paste of Orange powder (easily available)+rosewater +some dried neem leaves at home. Apply this pack on your face and it will give you required glow and freedom from oiliness.
PVB RECOMMENDATION
Skip it if you do not want to shell out 695 INR.It’s a product
from a luxury brand and cannot be used daily. But if you are really tired up
using things on your face for acne, tanning and pigmentation you may like to
give this a try. Otherwise, nothing special about it which a simple home made
face pack cannot take care of.
RATING: 3/5
