Thursday, April 21, 2016 Sidrah Beauty 2 Comments

If you're all about organic and natural skincare, Artsy.pk is the place for natural handmade products created by local artisans and businesses. With so many Facebook pages popping up with organic brands, it's hard to find them especially if you're searching through Google. Artsy.pk have created a wonderful platform for Artisans and Artists to showcase and sell their work online.

 With the launch of Artsy.pk, they've made it easier for homemade businesses to come together. To give their customers a look at local talent and bring their creations to a wider audience, they are showcasing the ‘Artsy Natural Living Exhibition’ taking place from 15th – 25th April. The exhibit will feature some truly delectable, all-natural products including scrubs, soaps, and essential oils with a flat 10% discount on most of the products in the category along with free delivery all over Pakistan.
The team was ever-so gracious to send me a box of googies to try out and review for you all. From scrubs to shampoos, here's a look at what you can find on the site.

Keep in mind these are sample sizes, prices mentioned are for full sizes with jars.
Berry Blast - Premium Salt Scrub 
I'm all about using a body scrub on a daily basis! Especially with the dirt and sweat build up, a scrub gets my skin so squeeky clean. If you LOVE fruity/berry scents, this stuff is amazing. It's nothing like I've ever used scent wise, it really leaves a beautiful aroma after you're done showering. The salt is abrasive enough to cleanse off dead skin. It made my skin feel really smooth. 
Price: Rs.540 (Rs.600)

 
Organic Secrets - Sea Whisper Shampoo
I've never used a sea salt shampoo before but this is something I will look into for deep cleansing my hair. Since my hair tends to be on the oily side, the sea salt helps to cleanse the roots and from any leftover hair-styling product.
Price: Rs.720 (Rs.800)

Rose Bath Crystals
If you love rose scented bath products, this has a very fresh scent. The fine crystals have the same texture as salt but is best used to relieve any stress during a bath, salt is known to relieve any muscle aches and pains. 
Price: Rs.585 (Rs.650)
Purchase Link

 Chocolate Lip Scrub
I love homemade lip scrubs! This chocolate scrub is definitely something I'll use everyday. The sugar grains seem to be mix with cocoa to give that chocolate flavor. It did a wonderful job of exfoliating my lips and leaving them very smooth and soft. Definitely recommend this! 
Price: Rs.225 (Rs.250)
Purchase Link
 
Meetha Sarson (Sweet Mustard Oil)
The meetha sarson is ideal for using on frizzy hair, I prefer using hair oils at just the ends of my hair to tame any frizz. This is ideal for thoes looking for luscious and healthy hair, you can never go wrong with organic oil!
Price: Rs.360 (Rs.400)
Pure Desi Coconut Cream
The coconut cream is definitly my favorite! It smells very similar to Vaseline's Cocoa Butter Petromleum but it absorbs into the skin easily. It has a very thin texture but it does hydrate the skin, I love using this on my cuticles during the day. 
Price: Rs.450 (Rs.800)
Purchase Link

 Pure Desi Special Ubtan
I love using ubtan masks for a quick pick-me-up when my face is looking a bit dull. This ubtan is very finely-milled so it mixes easily with Rose Water or Yoghurt depending on your skin type.  
Price: Rs.720 (Rs.800)

Purchase Link
 
100% Rosehip Oil
I've been wanting to use Rosehip oil for ages! This is such an effective oil for skincare and anti-aging. This beauty oil is very lightweight and is easily absorbed into the skin without a greasy residue. You only need to use the smallest amount before going to bed for best results. This sample size will be launched in June exclusively for Artsy.pk for Karachi.
Price: Rs.1250

Sunday, April 03, 2016 Sidrah Beauty 0 Comments

In the past few months I've noticed so many girls getting into good quality skincare, since we end up wearing so much makeup on a daily basis it's good to keep your skin clean and free from build up. With the arrival of Du'Vi Stockholm in Pakistan, the Natural Skin Care Brand of Sweden, it's the perfect time to start your new skincare routine!

REVIEW:
Skincare is definitely something we all tend to neglect. The 2 products that I've been trying out from Du'Vi Stockholm target aging skin, in particularly fine lines and dehydrated skin. I can say both products have an amazing way of making my skin feel so refreshed and not at all dried out. I've been testing them out for the past month and a half so I really put them to good use

The Forever Young Face Scrub is not at all like your typical facial scrub, it's not abrasive like the St.Ives scrubs. It's gentle and more like a cream cleanser that does not dry out your skin after use. Since my skin is prone to breakouts whenever I use a hydrating cleanser, this didn't cause any clogged pores or any breakouts. The creamy texture doesn't exfoliate your skin but gently cleanses it, it does contain small particles but doesn't exfoliate the skin enough for a deep clean. If you're looking for something that will gently cleanse on a daily basis this is great for you but for girls with really oily skin this might not give you the best 'squeaky' clean feeling. Since my skin has been leaning towards normal in the past year with a little oil on my nose, this works really well to cleanse off any dirt and makeup at the end of the day.

The Forever Young Night Cream is such a wonderful hydrating cream to use overnight. If you love waking up to smooth skin and don't have any issues with oil build up, this will really improve the texture of your skin. This cream is very emollient, the smallest amount goes a LONG way. You need only 1/8th of a pump to hydrate your entire face, eye area and down your neck. It keeps the skin feeling moisturized throughout the night instead of drying up completely after you wake up. I generally avoid applying this on my nose since I get more oil build up, but around my checks and forehead I felt the biggest difference. On days when I use a clay mask, I apply this at night to really nourish any dry patches. For the price and amount that you're getting, this will last you more than a year!

Overall, this brand is worth checking out if you love natural skincare that won't cause any irritation. I have the Vitamin Toner on my wishlist at the moment. 

Until April 3rd, if you order from Duvistockholm.com.pk you can get free shipping along with a free facial towel! It's worth mentioning that the towel is very soft and gentle on the skin.
