Omved All Skin Types Ubtan Review

Ubtan, The Indian Scrub helps in removing dead cells and facial hair effectively. It has revitalizing and refreshing properties which helps in improving complexion and smoothness of the skin. In ancient times, queens used to apply Ubtan to remove facial/body hair and for the maintaining healthy skin. They used to prepare it at home by mixing lentils powder along with sandalwood, saffron, turmeric etc. You can make it yourself by altering ingredients according to your skin need. Now-a-days, readymade Ubtans are available in the market which will save your time of preparation. Today, I am reviewing a product from Omved brand which is Omved All Skin Type Ubtan.

Then remove the paste in a cool water rinse, to which you might add a little lemon juice or rose water.

My Experience With Omved All Skin Types Ubtan:

Ubtan comes in sealed silver pack which can be opened by cutting it from one side. Store the ubtan in an air-tight container and keep it in the fridge once you open it. Because you need to store it in fridge, it is not a travel friendly product. The color of the Ubtan is brick color with small granules in it. Ubtan smell is just like red sandalwood. I took small quantity in a mixing bowl, added 1 teaspoon of rose water and mixed it.

As per the instructions, I wanted to apply a thin layer on face and keep it for 2-3 minutes. But I could just pat it on my face as it was difficult to apply it evenly on the face. Once it got dried, I rinsed it off with water. Rinsing was little messy as the ubtan color left all stains in the wash basin.

After rinsing it, I observed that my neck became red and that caused slight itchiness on my neck and jaw line. I immediately applied ice and it felt better. After 30 minutes redness on my neck disappeared. If I had to look on the good side it made skin soft and smooth. But still I am disappointed because of the redness problem I faced.

Pros Of Omved All Skin Types Ubtan:

• Easily available and affordable price
• One pack can be used for about 12-15 times
• Smells good
• Perfect for oily skin
• Makes the skin smooth and soft

Cons Of Omved All Skin Types Ubtan:

• Not a travel friendly product
• Not recommended for dry skin
• Stains the basin while rinsing
• Redness was caused on the skin

Diva Likes Rating:

2.5/5

Final Note:

Ubtan is an affordable product but it caused redness on my neck and that stayed for half an hour even after washing off. I have used this product only once and would give it a try one more time to check if it repeats. As of now, I am disappointed with the product.
