Just Herbs has gained a lot of popularity
in 2014, and that is the reason why I decided to try out some of their
products. I placed my order from the Just Herbs website and I had to pay Rs.50
for shipping since my order did not meet the minimum amount for free shipping.
I got my order delivered to Mumbai in 6 days. Hope you don’t mind the lengthy
post, sorry!
Apart from their website, you can find Just
Herbs products at Flipkart, Nykaa, Amazon, Luxola . Their products are all natural ayurvedic pdts, f
You can WhatsApp Just Herbs on +91 8054948180 to get a consultation on what products you need to use.That's how they operate actually, the treatments are bespoke according to your skin type. However, I don't think that's of much use because they recommended me the same products when my skin was combination & when it was normal. I also told them that I do not have any acne problems, still they recommended me products like "anti blemish gel" both times ! That's why I decided to ignore their consultation & buy products I needed :)

Now, moving onto the reviews.....
Just Herbs Silksplash Neem-Orange Rehydrant
Face Wash:
An
ideal rehydrant foaming Ayurvedic cleanser with the natural goodness of neem,
Chandan(sandal wood) and honey. It
gently removes the last traces of dust, grime and make-up residue, yet
retaining the inherent moisture of the skin. While Sandal Wood is moisturising
and anti-inflammatory, Calendula acts as natural antiseptic and antibacterial
agent with sun radiation protective properties. Aloe Vera, Honey and Orange
peel deeply moisturize leaving the skin with an amazing sense of freshness and
a velvety sheen all day long.

Review: When I received this cleanser, a lot of product had leaked out. After one month of usage,
its pump had completely broken. Also, the stickers on its body have been
disintegrating as you can see from the pics, which makes it incredibly
inconvenient to use. It smells like fevicol to me, but not as strong. It’s a slightly
thick gel cleanser. At first, I felt its just like any normal cleanser. Then after
2 months of using this, I had to use a non-herbal cleanser, the L’Oreal Hydra Fresh one once and
I could realize the difference. Silksplash is very very gentle compared to
other cleansers. It doesn’t make the skin feel dry or irritated post wash. I use
it to cleanse my face & on the days when I wear makeup, I use to get rid of the
residue of makeup cleanser. It does not prevent my skin from getting pimples.
Rating: 3/5
Because of the bad quality of
packaging I won’t be repurchasing it, but if you’re in search of a mild
cleanser, this is a good option to try out.
Just Herbs Bhringraj Tail:

product was nearly finished when I took pictures, the actual oil looks yellow

the scalp thus stimulating the hair follicles for more healthy new growth of

Review: I bought this oil because I am
suffering from heavy hairfall, also the texture of my hair had gotten quite dry
and rough. I did not expect this to perform miracles, but I hoped that it would
do either of the two- reduce hair fall or improve hair condition. Unfortunately,
it was not able to do either. I warmed this up before use as per the
instructions & applied it to my scalp. Its not very thick, and after
heating, it feels thinner. Post washing, my hair felt little drier than before. It did not promote hair growth either. After using it 6-7 times for a month I was not happy with the results so I gave
it to my sister who has little hairfall. It did not help her either. Overall, I
am not impressed with this product, it literally does nothing for the hair. It does
not “Deep Condition” as per claims.
Rating: 1/5
Pricey, ineffective, not
recommended.
Just Herbs Silky Strength
Aloevera-Wheatgerm Moisturising Shampoo:
A
specially formulated shampoo to penetrate the hair shaft, strengthen the roots

off its natural oils. Aloe Vera, a potent natural moisturiser and conditioner
stimulates the hair follicles while wheat germ oil fights free radicals and
provides extra nourishment. Lecithin – a phospholipids derived from soya beans,
which emulates the cellular membrane, repairs damaged hair while leaving your
hair full and alive with abundant strength, bounce and volume. The therapeutic
herbs hibiscus and vetiver help control dandruff, premature greying and split
ends to promote growth of luxuriously shiny black hair.

Review: I received a sample size of this product
with my purchase. Like all herbal shampoos, it is thick. I have been using it
for a month and a half & I am not impressed. It leaves my hair drier than
before & does not get rid of any hair oil applied. I have applied it 3-4 times during a
hair wash still it did not remove the hair oil, 50% of the oil was still there
on my hair.
Rating: 1/5
Pricey, does not clean off hair oil, makes hair drier, not
recommended

Review: I received a sample size of this
product with my purchase. It’s a mud mask as you can see and dries very
quickly on the face. I’d recommend working on one area of the face at a time. It has a lovely rose scent. It
cleans up the face, leaves it soft and gives a soft glow for few hours. I haven’t noticed any
tan reduction, but I couldn’t use it every week because its too drying. Dry patches
are noticeable after washing this mask off. It makes blemishes drier &
smaller in appearance, but doesn't get rid of them. My skin drinks up moisturizer
quickly post this mask
Rating: 4/5
Effective for deep cleaning the
skin, though not as good as other masks that I’ve used. Still, its good for the
price it retails at. Since its very drying & meant for tan removal, its
best not to use it much in winters. Recommended, if you’re in need of an all-natural,
deep cleansing mask.
*I always
exfoliate my face for 5 min before applying a face mask. I use a scrub from St.Ives.
I really appreciate Just Herbs' efforts to be completely natural. Although some of their products are lackluster, it is common in any brand! I would really love it if they revamped their packaging, that is the only thing preventing me from repurchasing their products or trying any new ones. They claim to be a luxury brand & therefore I feel that packaging plays a major role. I'm also not thrilled about them for shoving products & not providing a proper consultation, hope they'll improve that aspect as well!
