Now the products that I am going to review come under the skin defense range of VLCCโ€™s personal care brand. Before starting with my review, I just want to mention that I had never been following the CTM routine rigorously and so never thought of buying any cleanser/ toner for me. I even used to do my facials at home myself using Gold/Silver facial kits priced around 800 each. As cleanser & scrubs are part of their 5 unit pack so I used to apply them once a month.

But as now I am a mother of a 2 month old(my sweetheart, my son- Saatvik), I never find an hour to do my facials coz whatever time I get when heโ€™s sleeping or playing with his dad, I have to see to the kitchen or other home tasks.
Thus I thought of getting myself a good Cleanser, Toner so that I can look after my dry skin (in minutes) which was getting worse day by day. Having a hard time looking out for Aroma Magic, Amway, Oriflame, Lotus new range, I ended up buying VLCC Cleansing Milk and Rose Water and I am super happy to lay my hands on these lovely skin care products.

VLCC Skin Defense Sandal Cleansing Milk (105/- for 100ml)

Product claim—This refreshing, non-foaming cleansing milk is enriched with the goodness of Sandalwood, Almond & Indian Burberry extracts. It deep cleanses, nourishes and heals the skin.
Ingredients-Sandalwood extract & Almond Oil
Skin- For normal to dry skin
Usage– Take appropriate amount on cotton & massage gently in circular motion over face & neck. Use in evenings esp. for removing make up.

What I feel about this Cleanser:- It is one of the best cleansers I have used so far. Its very light on the skin and doesnโ€™t feel greasy or sticky at all. I love the sandalwood smell of it. And its really very effective in removing dryness from the skin. The first time I used it on my face, it stung for 2 minutes or so, not because its harsh but because of the affected dry areas of my cheeks & around my mouth. I could see the redness in those areas(and I thought my skin was perfect ๐Ÿ™ ). After that day I applied it morning/evening and within 3 days(exactly after 5 applications), I got back my normal skin, the affected dried areas all gone.ย  ๐Ÿ˜€

Pros of VLCC Sandal Cleansing Milk:

  • Best Cleanser- All dryness vanishes within 3-4 applications.
  • Not at all greasy.
  • Its Sandalwood aroma is breathtaking.
  • Suitable for all pockets.
  • Small amount needed for one time applying as it spreads easily either using oneโ€™s fingers or cotton ball.
  • Due to its sturdy packaging its easy to carry around during travelling.
  • Consistency is neither too thick nor too thin so gets absorbed quickly into your skin.
  • Its a very good makeup remover too. You can see that in the pic attached below:

I have taken my favourite lipsticks starting from Marks & Spencers,Loreal,Maybelline,Diana of London and Lakme, then comes my eyeliners from Bourjois and Avon,my Loreal Lip liner, Eyeshadows from Karen Walker and a pink powder blush.

After just 2 swipes of the cleansing milk, the powder & blush gone and within 5-6 swipes were all the lipsticks and my eyeliners were wiped out. Only my Avon glimmersticks & Mark & Spencerโ€™s lipstick took 10-12 swipes to fade away completely.

Cons of Sandal Cleansing Milk

  • Cannot remove waterproof makeup.
  • Packaging could have been better. I would have preferred pump styled bottle.

Rest its a boon for people with dry skin like me. I have seen ladies swearing for VLCCโ€™s skin care products, their facial and pedicure/manicure kits. Now I am also swearing by this Cleanser. ๐Ÿ™‚ :P.

Will I repurchase it: Definitely but my next bottle would come after 6 months as I want to try their Wild turmeric Face wash reviewed by Neha.Thats just because my skin tends to get a little oily during the harsh summer heat of Hyd.

VLCC Skin Defense Rose Water Toner (85/- for 100ml)

VLCC rose water toner

Product Claim–This skin toner acts as a cooling and refreshing agent. It tones, nourishes and balances the skin.
Ingredients- Rose Petals Distillate, Date Extract, Aloe Vera Ext.
Skin type- All skin types.
Usage- Twice a day. Moisten a piece of cotton with this toner and apply over clean face & neck. Can be added to your face packs too.

My say /Pros of VLCC Rose Water Toner:

This clear liquid delivers what it claims. The skin really feels moistened and refreshed after using this toner. It has a calming effect on the skin. I use this after cleansing my face with the Sandal Cleansing milk and the skins feels supple and cool. โ˜บ I LOVE its aroma, it still lingers on for some time after using it. ๐Ÿ˜›

Cons of VLCC Rose Water Toner

  • Again the packaging. I prefer a spray kind of bottle.

Will I Repurchase it: YES.

My Rating for both of them is :-* :-* :-* :-*ย  (-1 only for the packaging).

I am going to buy the VLCC Honey Moisturiser next so that I am using all VLCC products for my CTM routine as these cleanser & toner have not only been effective on my dry skin but also have improved my skin tone and have given a glow to my skin even.
I still wonโ€™t call it my HG which have always been the CTM from Amway. As I am not able to get an Amway representative in Hyd so my search ended getting these VLCC products. But I am very much satisfied with their skin care range & in this price & quantity and the results I got, its a brand worth giving a try.

Hope my review help other ladies reading it too. Enjoy your Day ๐Ÿ™‚
