100 g bar for INR 22

Vivel Says: - This new skin nourishing range with Vitamin E under the Vivel brand is a manifestation of the growing consciousness amongst women towards personal grooming and the compelling need for nourishment.

** Vivel with Green Tea and Vitamin E is a unique offering in the Indian Soap industry. Vivel with Green Tea deep nourishes skin and prevents accumulation of skin impurities. Vivel Aloe Vera with Vitamin E deep nourishes to give satin soft skin.

** Vivel Mixed fruit + Cream with Vitamin E is a double delight for one’s skin. It is a unique 2-in-1 soap enriched with mixed fruit extracts of Pomegranate, Avocado and Papaya and Milk Cream. It not only nourishes but also gives skin a youthful, radiant glow. Vivel Refresh + Moisturize offers dual benefits of freshness and moisturization with Zesty Orange extracts and Milk Cream.

My Opinion: - Its been too long that I have stopped using soaps, seriously I don't remember the last time I used one. But yes it was Dove Cleansing Bar that I last used many many years ago. That's was one reason I was excited to see the soaps from Vivel with their other goodies. I first opened the Vivel soap with green tea plus anti-oxidants, it is a soothing milky green bar. The fragrance is a very refreshing green tea and after many days of use, the freshness still exists. Then I opened the Vivel soap with mixed fruit plus cream and it has a beautiful white & pink pattern, quite pleasing to the eyes. The fragrance of this soap is fresh fruity which I like. Both these soaps comes boxed like most soaps available in the market.

Both these soaps foam very well and are creamy. These did not melt and after many days use, the soaps still has their original shape intact. They did not dry out my skin after a bath and I have been washing my hands with these soaps instead of my regular Avon Red Rose & Peach Liquid Hand Soap and I must say I am really impressed with both of them. In normal skin care, Green Tea is used on Oily Skin and Cream & Vitamin E used on normal & dry skin but here I did not see any mention of any particular skin type recommendation on the cartons of these 2 soaps. But the bottom line is that soaps are made to clean your skin and this both the soaps did without a doubt. Recommended to all soap lovers.

               I rate Vivel Skin Nourishing Soaps (green tea & mixed fruit with cream) 4 out of 5. I recommended these soaps to all people who use soap on a daily basis. Both these soaps are affordable and easily available.


Thank you and have a wonderful time ahead :)

50 ml for INR 65

Vivel Says: - Did you know that dirt and excess oil block facial pores leading to outbreak of pimples.

Pimple Preventive Action

1. Green Tea, a known anti-oxidant scavenges free radicals caused due to pollution to purify the skin and antibacterial agent fights pimple causing infection.

2. Oil balanced formula washes oil off the skin and gently cleanses to remove impurities without causing dryness.



Usage: - Apply on wet face. Gently massage in circular motion with fingertips avoiding eye-contours. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry. Use twice daily.

Ingredients: - Aqua, Sodium Laureth Sulphate, Decyl Glucoside, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Meltooligosyl, Glucoside/Hydrogenated Starch Hydrolysate, Acrylates/Stearath-20, Methacrylate, Crosspolymer, Polysorbate-20, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, Sodium PCA, Polyquaternium-47, Glycerin, Triethanolamine, Fragrance, DMDM Hydanation, Triclosan, Tocopheryl Acetate, Tetrasodium EDTA, Camella Sinesis Leaf Extract, Benzophenone-4, CI 11680, CI 74160.

My Opinion: - Today I am reviewing Vivel Purifying Face Wash with Green Tea Extracts which I bought a while back. I bought it because I saw the words "Pimple Control" & "Green Tea Extracts" inscribed on the tube. The tube is nearly over and now I remember that I have not yet reviewed it. The face wash like all face washes comes in a tube with a flip open lid. The white plastic tube with pink and green designs looks refreshing, the flip open lid is green in color and shuts tight and hence I would call it travel safe. And yes this kind of tube packaging with flip open lids are hygienic too. 

                        This face wash is a thick and colorless gel. Its not very thick and very runny as well. The fragrance is good, fresh citrusy scent which fades off after application. It does not lathers well and is 100% soap free.My skin does not feel dry and stretchy after using this face wash. It cleans well but does not give that squeaky clean feel to the skin. It gives a fresh feel which does not stay on for long. The face wash cleans only the daily makeup (moisturiser/sunscreen etc) and is ineffective against eye-makeup & lip makeup, well it does claim to clean off makeup so that's ok.

                





















                   This purifying face wash does not leave behind any residue but it needs to be washed off properly. I mean you would need a lot of water to wash it off completely. It clears off the oil effectively but is unable to control oil production. Now the big deal is that it does absolutely nothing for my pimples. Does not help with existing ones and is unsuccessful in preventing new ones. Then whats the need for a pimple preventing face wash which cannot prevent pimples!!!! End of story....




Pros: -


* Affordable & Easily Available

* Travel-friendly & Hygienic packaging

* Contains Green Tea Extract

* Dermatologically Tested

* Does not dry out my skin or makes it stretchy

* Cleans well

* 100% soap free



Cons: -

* Does not Prevent Pimples or helps to dry the existing ones




            I rate Vivel Active Essentials Purifying Face Wash 3.75 out of 5. But I would not recommended this to beauties who are looking for a pimple control face wash but I would say that it is a good face wash for combination to oily skin. Just an average product nothing special about it.



Hope this review helped you in some way and do leave behind your sweet comments and also tell us about your favorite Vivel Face Wash. Thank you and have a rocking Afternoon and also Eid Mubarak to everyone :)
