Organic Surge Daily Care Facewash {Product Review}

Guest Post by Roshni

A big thanks to Swati for letting me do a guest post :) Hope you all like it! [Me: I should be thankful to you, Rosh, instead!]

After my Dove Beauty Moisture face wash got over, I decided to order the Organic Surge Daily Care face wash since I had read a lot about it. The one tempting factor of this face wash was the rose geranium oil which is one of the ingredients of the face wash. I love anything that smells of or contains roses and so I had to give this face wash a try!

Price: Rs 660 (Got it for INR528 from medplusbeauty.com)

Quantity: 200ml

Ingredients

My Experience

I will start off by saying I have become a big fan of this face wash! And this is not only due to the rose smell ;-) The face wash has all natural ingredients with no SLES or parabens. I find this to be another big attraction. It of course smells like roses – more like a gulkand smell. This is very refreshing. 

The face wash is not very runny nor creamy. It is a golden yellow in colour and lathers very well. I take a pea sized amount in my wet palm, rub it between my hands to generate lather, and then apply it to my face and neck. I then rub it gently and in a circular motion over my face and neck and wash it off.

My skin feels squeaky clean but not dry. It feels hydrated and soft. Also, my face tends to get small boils on the cheek bones and near the nose every few days if I don’t apply an antibacterial cream every 2-3 days. But since I have started using this face wash, the appearance of the boils has reduced and I do not need to use the antibacterial cream for many days at a time. So I am completely overjoyed!

Pros

• A small amount works a lot. This face wash will easily last me 6 months, I guess. I got it in April and little more than half is still left and that is with my husband using it half the time!!

• The rose smell! – even people who do not like rose smell or have a sensitive nose can use this cause the smell does not linger.

• Makes my skin squeaky clean without drying it.

• Reduces the appearance of boils.

• Comes in a pump dispenser bottle with a cap on top. So very easy to get the face wash out and also travel friendly.

• Contains natural ingredients which are definitely proving very good for my skin.

Cons

• Availability (only available online)

• Expensive? – I don’t think so cause it will last really long as I said above and is well worth the price!

So have you used this face wash? How do you like it?

Me: You have definitely sold me over the product, Rosh! Its on my list!

My Experience

Ok, the first time I used the product, I didn't know how I was supposed to use it so used it on completely dry skin and applied a really thick layer as it wasn't spreading easily on skin. That time only I used around 3-4 uses of the mask!! Then, I realized that it should be applied on damp skin. 

From next time, I started using it in the bath. Keeping it for 20 minutes is something I hate but still follow. Yeah, I am running low on patience these days!! Ok, so the product is a commercial version of homemade ubtan. The worst part of the product being it stains the skin and clothes YELLOW :(

As you can see in the pic, it is a little grainy in texture which is very gentle on skin and helps to clean the blackheads and dead skin cells. Its is recommended to use the mask daily but honestly it becomes an expensive deal to use it daily. In that case, the homemade deal would be better.

I got around 10 uses with the product. But, yes, its a good product and it has definitely improved my skin a lot. Though, I didn't notice any skin lightening. Some one had commented that my skin was looking pink after using this product so that was something surprising. 

I have liked Auravedic products more or less so this is another addition to that list. There is another product which came along with this one. Its just the powdered ubtan which has to be mixed with some liquid and used daily so I shall try it out next. Meanwhile, you should check this out :)

absolutely gentle on skin

expensive!!

My Experience

Totally loved it!! Ok, it does not have SLS. And, the product is light yellow in color and also feels creamy. It comes in a pump dispenser bottle. And, for every use, I felt I needed two pumps at least. It does NOT lather AT ALL.

yup, its runny in consistency!

Its very very gentle on skin and feels as if it doesn't clean the skin at all but the converse is true. I did feel as if my skin has improved but then I was doing a lot of things which I shall mention in another post.

Ok, one big con is that I used the whole 100ml in around 20 days with two times usage :( where as the other face wash lasted me for around a month with very very generous use!!

Aaahh...one more thing is it doesn't make my skin feel dry or stretchy or leave any film either which makes me more happy. It doesn't make the skin feel oily either.

And, also, I forgot to mention that it smells like sugarcane juice to me :D :D Yes, I do find the product expensive but I think it is definitely worth a try. Its especially recommended for skin which gets inflamed very easily!! Or, for sensitive skin.
