Greetings to gorgeous ladies!
I have my exam season going on, and I am least interested in my books as the Pujas are literally knocking on the door. With loads of shopping pending, I recently purchased a few skin care goodies. My mother and I spotted this Biotique Diamond Facial Kit at the beauty store and the shop assistant sang a lot of praises about this one. So, giving in to impulse, we bought this facial kit, and today let me tell you how it fared.
Product Description:
This Diamond facial Kit has Diamond Bhasma and helps in Skin Polishing and Brightening Skin. It has the following products which is suitable for 2 sessions:
Diamond Face Scrub- 15 GM
Diamond Massage Gel- 15 GM
Diamond Face Mask- 15 GM
Diamond Face Cream- 15 GM
FREE Swiss Magic Dark Spot Corrector- 15 GM
Price:
INR 330 for the total 75 gms
My Experience with Biotique Diamond Facial Kit with Diamond Bhasma:
The facial kit comes in a rectangular box with all four components – Facial Scrub, Massage Gel, Face Mask and Face Cream, neatly packaged inside. Each of the product is in a white tub with green cap, with names labelled. Plus, the kit contains a Dark Spot corrector for free. A very simple and efficient packaging, but might be bulky for travelling purposes.
Most of us who use facial kits might have used Lotus, VLCC or Shahnaz Husain Kits. Biotique Diamond kit is a welcome change from those, and at a more budget friendly version. Talking about the kit, let me tell you individually about the products:
Diamond Face Scrub:
The scrub is in a gel-like form with tiny exfoliating particles. It is unique as I haven’t used gel based scrubs before. The smell is extremely refreshing and the cooling experience it provides is great for a home facial. Loved the scrub. Plus, it suited my normal-oily skin and my mother’s dry skin, so definitely a winner.
Diamond Massage Gel:
After scrubbing, the massage gel needs to be massaged into the skin and left for about 15-20 minutes. The consistency is similar to any regular gel (more like a jelly, I guess) and looks almost the same as the scrub (minus, the tiny granules). It has a soothing fragrance and gets easily absorbed into the skin. Massaging with this gel might be difficult for extremely parched skin because of the fast absorption; it worked well for both me and my mom.
Clinical Dark Spot Corrector:
It says it helps in removing blemishes, but haven’t seen any results backing this claim. It has an extremely weird smell and I honestly skip this step. It is thick in texture and might be hydrating enough for dry skinned ladies.
Diamond Face Mask:
I need my face masks to have a pleasant smell because I need to sit or relax with it! With the scrub and gel having nice aroma, this mask fails terribly in that aspect. The mask is thick white and extremely gentle on skin. It makes skin soft and supple and imparts a subtle glow. Nothing extraordinary, but the I-take-care-of-my-skin kind of healthy look.
Diamond Face Cream:
I don’t need a face cream for my skin as the mask already hydrates my skin and I follow it just with a toner. But, my mom uses this and it has not disappointed her. The cream has a lovely fragrance and is of just the right texture for dry skin. It makes skin extremely soft (extremelyyyy) and makes it look hydrated and healthy.
Overall:
This is a budget friendly option for regular skin care which doesn’t target any major skin concerns. The kit is supposed to be used for 2 sessions and me and mom have both done once each, and it will easily last 2 more sessions. In that way, it deserves some extra brownie points.

Would I Repurchase/Recommend Biotique Diamond Facial Kit with Diamond Bhasma?
Yes, I will recommend this as it is a nice kit for regular skin care. But it’s not a must-have if you have specific skin problems to address. As for repurchasing, I might not, as I will try out other products.

I do not like these at-home facial kits, they just never work for me, somehow. But I guess Lotus has some good kits that show noticeable results.
Yes, Lotus kits are good 🙂
