Product Review: Totally Peanuts Facial Cleanser by SaND for Soapaholics

Follow my blog with Bloglovin

Hello Everyone!

This is the first Review post of this year, so I thought lets make it about skin care. I got this SaND for Soapaholics Totally Peanuts Face Cleanser in one of my FabBags. Its more of a scrub than a cleanser. So let's see how this product fared on my skin.

Product Claim: 

Get-up-and-get-going with our nutty cleanser concoction blended with Nature’s own energizer, Honey. We make sure that our Peanuts rest in the ground for at least six months to provide you with that burst of Vitamin E that you deserve. By combining our backyard beehive with exotic Cedarwood and Rose Essential Oils, we provide you with the perfect splash of moisture and protection to last you till Happy Hour! 

Recommended for: Normal to Dry skin

Directions to use: Take a small amount, mix with water and blend into a paste. Massage face for a minute and rinse off with warm water.

Shelf Life: 4 months from date of packing.

Ingredients: Every 10gm contains Vegetable Glycerine (38.10%), Peanut Seed Pdr. (Arachis hypogea) (30.90%), Kaolin (24.20%), Honey Liq. (4.35%), Ess.Oil blend of Patchouli Leaf (Pogostemon patchouli), Cedarwood (Cedrus deodara) & Basil Leaf (Ocimum sanctum) (1.44%), Pink Clay (0.97%)

Price: INR 159/- for 30 gms of product. 

My Thoughts on the Product:

The product comes in a mustard coloured, plastic tub with a screw-on cap. I have not tested if the cap is leak-proof, so I cannot really comment on that bit. The moment you open the tub, a pleasant aroma of patchouli and basil greet you. The product colour is a pretty brownish pink.  The formula is rich and thick and is packed with peanut powder. The product is full of natural goodness, if you read the ingredient list. All ingredients are natural and have no nasties like artificial preservatives, parabens and phthalates!

The grains of the scrub itself are soft and do not feel abrasive on the skin, though they help exfoliate quite well. My skin feels fresh after every use! I see no redness after scrubbing my face with 'Totally Peanuts'. My skin feels smooth and hydrated after use.  I have had oily skin for most of my life, but lately, I feel a lot of dryness, and the cold weather does not help much. But this product has been a game changer. I'm in love!


Pros: 

1. Simple packaging. I love this because it means less pressure on the environment.
2. Full of natural goodness.
3. No parabens, artificial colouring, perfume or phthalates.
4. Pleasant smell.
5. Soft scrub particles.
6. Exfoliates effectively.
7. Does not leave skin red and raw. 
8. Does not dry out skin surface.

Cons: 

Can't think of any!!

Overall Verdict: 5/5! I love the fact that the product is absolutely natural with no artificial preservatives. Which is why all the products have a very short shelf life. So most of their products come in three sizes 30 gms, 50 gms and 100 gms.

Divo Eyelash Curler

In the August 2015 FabBag, I am most keen on the SaND Face Cleanser. I have used it once, so far. It does not clean up makeup, but its great as a morning cleanser. Fran Wilson's Moodmatcher lipsticks are fun to use since it changes colour upon touching you skin. We are told that the lipstick will show a different shade on different people due to our unique body chemistry. Its a long lasting listick and was quite a pain taking off! 

I am really looking forward to using Roots Professional Morocvita Argan Oil. Argan oil has been touted as a miracle product. We'll see how it fares on me. The Ital Veloce body spray in Chii Town Blushes smells pleasantly of assorted flowers.

The Divo Eyelash curler looks promising too. Watch this space for detailed reviews....
