Dripta asks:
Dear IMBBians,
How are you doing? I am writing to you after so many days. I hope (pray) you remember me. I am Dripta, 27 years from Kolkata. I should give you the very good news of my life that, have just got married on 7th March. Here, I am back with my big bag of questions once again. After come back from office, I wash my face with Aroma magic’s white tea and face wash, but want to know that should I use any cleanser before applying the face wash (my options are TBS, Biotique, Fab India, Arish/Keya Seth (popular brand in Kolkata) or any good probably herbal brand for better results, have no idea and never used. Please guide me.
My second question – I have been using vitamin E cream from Fab India for quite a long time and thinking for Aroma magic/ Nivea. Kindly help me out. Your suggestions would be highly appreciable.
Last one- is dove a better face wash than AM for my skin type?
My skin type- normal to combination.

Hi dripta..warm wishes for your wedding.
If you wear makeup when you go to office, then you need to remove it when you are back. This should be done before using face wash. Tbs has chamomile range which is very good. Cleansing milk, gel and balm. U can pick whichever suits your needs.
Aroma magic face wash is better than dove ones so please continue using am.
Regarding the fab india cream and you want to change it, there are so many options for face creams. Am and nivea are also good, u can try olay total effects, tbs vit c, e, or moisture white, biotique morning nectar etc..depends upon what performance you want from your cream. Whenever i go skincare shopping, i always search for reviews here at imbb. It really helps u decide which one should u pick next .
Hi dear Jyoti,thank you very much for this kind eply *puchhi* .Yes I’m not a real makeup person only use kajal,sunscreen,compact, lip balm and lipstick that’s all.so what do you think should I use a makeup remover (pleased suggest) or can use a clenser? What dose a balm do?
Actually I’ve been using both the daily mois.cream at mo rning and vit e cream t night frm Fab India.if I use Biotique what will be the exact name of the creams. I ll try to buy the products frm my next visit to Tbs store *happy dance* *announce* .
Hi Dripta,
Congratulations on your marriage. Aroma Magic one is good, continue using it. You can also try the clean and clear morning burst face washes as well as pond’s foaming face wash. For vitamin E cream, there’s one in TBS.
Jomo *thankyou* *thankyou* . Even I thought tht AM is far better than Dove. Have to the cleansers and the creams at the TBS.
Have to see the cleanser and the creams at Tbs.
hey
i am combi skin too.
dry -combi in winters and oily- combi in monsoons. and dry flaky sensitive skin in summers.. pretty complex though lolz.
aroma magic alwys broke me out , with one or two painful pimples even with products safe for oily acne prone ones .i brought that mint cleanser. its good
mattify ur face even but it didnt suit me at all.
i love TBS… try a cleansing oil from shisho range .
i am yet to try Nivea cleanser, i have it , have heard its good. just hope it doesnt break out or anything.
i love biotique as well , but never tried thier cleansers 😛
more or less face wash and cleanser is nearly same so use a proper makeup remover before facewash..
amd do use a toner it helps to take out every dirty bit of grim
hope that helps 🙂
xoxo
Yes I do use the toner *haan ji* .try AM’s chamomile face wash, I love this.
Hi dripta… First, i congratulate u for ur new journey in life. Even I have combination skin. My usual routine is a mild non foaming face wash in the morning. Tbs, clinique are my favs. When i return from work…i double cleanse my face. That means i use a cleansing oil or balm first to get rid of all makeup. My favs here are tbs chamomile balm, clinique balm, shu uemura cleansing oil. Then i use another non foaming face wash… I hav tbs vit e non foaming face wash right now. Then i use an alcohol free toner( my fav at present is clarins one), then serum and moisturiser. This is my daily routine which never changes. Sometimes I go in for exfoliation and masks… But the ctm routine is a must. Products may change… But routine does not. Hope i helped u out… Good luck
Oh thank you Arpita *puchhi* *blush* *puchhi* *blush* .secondly what a mantand routine I must apprct this. *haan ji* there s no dbt tht your really helped me. Could your please tell me the functions of a serum nd a balm.can I use serum? How do I use this? I know after readind this you must be *hihi* ing and here I’m *cry* ing.
BTW have anyone used Arish’s cleanser or serum,if you have please let me know.
Hi Dripta, you can consider Lotus Alphamoist moisturizer which is really good for combi skin and Patanjali Aloevera gel. I use them on alternative days during summer
