I remember, as a kid how sometimes I would stealthy apply soap on my face in an attempt to clean it just like the other parts of my body without realizing that it was only making my face dry, itchy and more dirt prone. As I was growing up, I got introduced to the messiah, the darling face cleansers/ wash which has now become an essential component of any beauty regimen. As we call it: cleansing-toning-moisturizing. We need it before applying makeup, for removal of the same and even if we are not applying any makeup at all. The face wash is an absolute necessity for daily use as it lets our pores breathe by removing oil, germs, and dirt. It also helps in maintaining PH level of the skin.
So, hello people! I am back with one more review of yet another herbal product, the Roop Mantra Cucumber Face Wash. I have used it for a few months now. Let’s see how it worked for me

My Experience with Roop Mantra Cucumber Face Wash
Roop Mantra promises to deliver the best Ayurvedic products in the market. Can’t say much about that but I think the claims are just a tad too bit ambitious. Since I told you before, I have been using it for quite some time now (around 5-6 months), hence I can shade some light over the facts.
1) It doesn’t help in removing dark spots but works on pimples. It did clear out a few pimples to some extent. But couldn’t prevent the new ones ( My pimples won the final show down).
I use it twice daily. One during a bath in the morning and the other time after I come back home after a long day in college or sometimes at night, followed by a moisturizer.
2) It instantly makes you look and feel fresh. No doubt cucumber does its job well. It keeps your skin hydrated.
3) It will not give you the fair, glowing princess look. It is just a face wash man! But as mentioned earlier, it makes you look fresh and in your own complexion only.
4) Cheers to the fact that it is a unisex product. Men do not shy away from using it okay?
5) Wow, it’s cheap!
Would I recommend?
YES. It suited perfectly to my oily skin. It would work fine for normal skin as well. A mild, natural face wash perfect for daily use. But people with dry skin should rather use a cream based cleanser instead of this gel based product as it will tend to dry out the skin more.
