Directions for use:
Moisten face and neck,avoiding eye area.Massage the scrub gently for a minute.Rinse with water and pat dry.Use it 2-3 times in a week.
Final Verdict:
Most of the Himalaya products are good. Though this scrub is pretty for the price but did not exactly meet my expectations.I rather liked the Himalaya Herbals Purifying Neem Mask which act as scrub come mask and Himalaya Deep Cleansing Apricot Scrub which is really great cleanser especially for oily-acne prone skin types.
My Rating:3/5
