Due to the nature of my work, I am occasionally deprived of sleep plus I have to sit for hours in front of my PC. As a result of this I developed big dark cirlces around my eyes since last few months. On one hand I wanted to get rid of those dark circles but on other, I was skeptical to try cosmetic products as they contain several harmful chemicals which do more harm as time passes. I chose this product instead of others for a simple reason that it does not contain parabens.I am very particular about what is being put on my skin. If you study the ingredients of several popular brands you would be surprised that they consist of several harmful chemicals like: Liquid paraffin, Titanium Dioxide, Triethanolamine, Methyl Paraben, Triclosan, Propyl Paraben, Sodium Ascorbyl Phospate and dozens of other chemicals which do more harm than good.Thankfully, this product is absolutely free of parabens. The product consists of 16 vital Ayurvedic herbs. Main ingredients of this product are:- Kumkumadi Tailam -> lightens skin tone & improves blood circulation.- Sandalwood -> anti-bacterial & reduces signs of aging.- Kesar -> anti-inflammatory, lightenes the skin & fights acne.Other ingredients are almond oil, rose, sunflower, godhal flower, turmeric, anar, grapes, nut, olive oil. As you can see, it is 100% Ayurvedic and would therefore takes little time to work wonders. So, please keep your expectations reasonable. Do not expect that you would become 2X lighter after one application :D. Only chemical based product can achieve that. The outer cover of the product correctly labels "This is not a cosmetic product. It has therapeutic properties"Coming to the product - the packaging of the product (screenshots attached) is absolutely AMAZING! I have not seen a product better packaged than this till today. I think the outer box itself would be at least worth INR 50 & if that is the case I would advise the marketing team to reduce the quality of the box a bit and instead pass the money saved on the box container directly to customer in the form of reduction in price of the product :)Application process is fairly simple. Just use a generous amount of scrub and apply it on face in layers. Then massage it in upwards direction and circular direction on your dark circles. After few minutes wash your face with water (without soap).Pro(s):1. I did not have any side effects on my skin. I tend to develop acne as I am hypoallergenic to cosmetic products. So guys trust me when I say this product is suitable to all skin types it REALLY is!2. After using thrice a week for 2 weeks I can definitely see my skin brightening and dark circles reduction by 30%3. The smell of this product is AMAZING (of Kesar & Sandalwood). Further, the fragrance stays for 2-3 hours after you have washed your face. I would advise to only wash your face with water and not soap.4. I am very happy that the product itself comes in glass container as against plastic. It seems the manufacturer has paid attention to all tiny bits & bobs to avoid even the slighest niggles.Con(s):1. There is a discrepancy between the way the product is to be used. The outer packaging says it is to be used 2-3 times a week. However, the inner bottle cover says it is to be used daily. I am not sure which one is correct. To be on the safe side I only use it thrice a week even though it doesn't have any harmful chemicals.2. Product is slightly on the expensive side at INR 995 but I am happy since the manufacturer is directly selling it's products on Amazon without any intermediate retailers, it is able to provide attractive discounts. I would appreciate even more if some money is saved on packaging and instead the price is reduced.All in all I am very happy with my purchase.Buy with confidence!
