Himalaya Herbals Fairness Kesar Face Pack Review

Summers have set in and my skin has started calling for some extra attention and care. I love summers for wearing light breezy chiffon clothes but for skin, it creates total disaster if proper care is not taken. Himalaya Herbals products have never disappointed me and it has always been a treat to try them. I picked up Himalaya Herbals Fairness Kesar Face Pack during my recent Nykaa haul. It claimed of treating blemishes along with UV protection and so I picked it up to get rid of uneven skin tone and tan build up. It claims of containing some amazing ingredients, one of them is kesar which has been used as an age-old treatment for the fair skin. I knew I had to get it by just taking a look at the ingredients list. It worked for me or not will be revealed in the review below. Read on.

My Experience With Himalaya Herbals Fairness Kesar Face Pack:

The face pack comes in a simple plastic tube with the typical Himalaya green flip cap on top. The cap shuts tightly thus ensuring that the product is travel-friendly. The pack is beige-white in color with a heavenly floral aroma. It has a slight thick creamy and smooth consistency which makes the application difficult as a lot of product is needed. I apply it on half damp face and it spreads easily then. You can also mix some rose water in it and then apply it instead of damping the face before application.

The first time I applied it, my face started experiencing mild burning sensation. I was scared of getting rashes and was thinking that it did not suit my skin. But I kept patience and waited for few minutes and the burning feeling faded away gradually. The pack washes off very easily once dried and it does not give stretchy feeling like other face packs. It makes skin soft, smooth and supple. I did not feel the need to apply any moisturizer post usage. One can easily notice a brightened effect on the face as a result of this face pack. I have been using it twice a week and have noticed it has succeeded in lightening some small blemishes on my face which is a very good thing. The faint glow it imparts lasts for the next day also. It has also not broken me out even once. Let me sum up the pros and cons for all of you to judge.

Pros Of Himalaya Herbals Fairness Kesar Face Pack:

• Sturdy travel safe packaging.
• Smells heavenly, mainly of floral notes.
• Hydrates the skin.
• Skin feels soft, smooth and supple.
• Gives a brightened effect with some glow.
• Has helped in lightening few blemishes on my skin.

Cons Of Himalaya Herbals Fairness Kesar Face Pack:

• Gives a mild tingling sensation but it fades away gradually.
