Past few months have been crazy at work and even though I had the weekends where I could take time out & write, I haven’t. Thank you if you stopped by here to read this blog, I am writing after MONTHS!
I haven’t been much of a personal care products buying person but lately trying my best to take care of the skin and hair in this unpredictable polluted weather of Mumbai. While there are daily care products like my Johnson & Johnson moisturiser which is always with me, my interest in organic products has grown quite a lot since last year. So much so that I spend time on Instagram learning about such brands; be it personal care or fashion - organic and sustainable products are the new trend and I hope they are here to stay for LONG.
One of such brands that has grown up to be of my liking is - Vilvah. A home-based brand, Vilvah is based out of Coimbatore in South India, and believes in using close to nil plastic, chemical-free products for your skin, hair and body care. There’s a wide range of products on their website; right from shampoo and conditioner to oil, serums, lip scrub, toners, etc. Their goat milk shampoo & Moringa Beautifying serum are the bestsellers. The products are not too expensive and if you are looking at investing in yourself for a change, do give this a try.
I recently shopped for a few products from them online for my night skincare routine which includes Honeyfix Facewash, Tea tree toner, Under eye cream & Anti-acne serum. I have been using their Herbal Shampoo for Dandruff & Light Conditioner since last year which have managed to make my hair softer and considerably reduce dandruff (if only I was more consistent!).

Do take a look at the products I bought and my first impression of using them for a month. I will add a review for each product after a few months of usage on this blog itself.
Honeyfix Facewash -
Honey is known to have anti-bacterial property and this facewash is made of it. As soon as you take a drop on your palm, the smell of honey is very evident & once you apply it on your face, it makes the skin feel softer from the first go itself. I would suggest you use facewash 1-2 times everyday. I use it after coming home from work after a long day out and it relaxes me.
Tea tree Toner -
After a generous love from the honeyfix face wash, I move on to Pure teatree water, it is made for acne prone skin & makes the skin feel cool. I use it twice every day, once in the morning before leaving for work and once after coming back home after face wash.
Anti-acne Serum -
Once the Cleansing and Toning is done, I move on to this anti-acne serum from Vilvah. 3 drops and a massage on the face makes it feel relaxed. Use it only once a day.
This is the first time I have used a serum on my face. Am one of those girls who thought serums should only be applied on hair. Note: You do not have to rinse your face or clean it with cotton.
Under eye cream -
So yes, that’s about my latest haul and night skincare routine. If you have a skincare regime or have used Vilvah, do share your views in the comments section below.

Under eye cream -
Lastly, the under eye cream. A small dab under the eye, and you can even apply it on top of the lids. Use it only in night.Th cream is very light & doesn’t feel like a drag on the face.
So yes, that’s about my latest haul and night skincare routine. If you have a skincare regime or have used Vilvah, do share your views in the comments section below.
(I cannot believe I have put up a blog after ONE WHOLE YEAR!)
