My Experience with Aroma Magic Calamine Face Pack:

This pack comes in a powder form so you can see the silica packet inside the tub to keep it dry. Silica is used for the absorption of moisture from the surroundings so the product remains dry and does not degrade. So, I made a paste mixing it with dabur Gulabari. After making the paste I applied it on my face and could get the atrocious smell of garlic all over. I still was not able to find out the source then suddenly saw the ingredient list and understood the root cause. One of the ACTIVE ingredients was “ Garlic”. I mean was I reading it right? Garlic? We all know the importance of Calamine, neem, mint, multani mitti and sandalwood in skin care but Garlic? I never knew that Garlic could be used for skin. After googling, I found out that it has antiviral, anti fungal and anti bacterial properties. Since bacteria are one of the causes of acne outburst therefore the antibacterial properties of garlic would keep them at bay.

It dried in 15 minutes after which I washed my face. Wow! I could see my face Oil free and glowing. It was all spic and span. Even the redness of pimples subdued. Though the face remained oil free for two hours but the active ingredient’s(read garlic) smell remained for a longer duration of time.

My Verdict:

Pros of Aroma Magic Calamine Face Pack

1)I have been using this product from quite some time. I can say that it does not eradicate the acne completely but have definitely made them less visible.

2) It gives you an instant glow after the wash.

3) The oiliness and stickiness just goes away.

4) It is not tested on animals.

5) Shelf life is three years.

6) Price is quite reasonable(only Rs. 90)

Cons of Aroma Magic Calamine Face Pack

1) First and foremost the smell of garlic. It is so strong that whoever enters the room will get the smell of it rather stink of it

2) It comes in a powder form. I somehow like ready to use face packs that can be used with out any hassles.

3) It is a high time that Aroma magic’s Product development team works towards the packaging of the product. It is not up to the mark.

Will I buy it again: Probably not cause I will take a long time to finish this pack. I will use it only during my acne outburst otherwise no.

My Rating: 3 on 5. 2 marks deducted, 1 for the stinking odor and other for the remaining cons.
