Neutrogena T/Gel Therapeutic Shampoo Review

-
I am suffering from Dandruff since I was a child. I am sure most of you are victims of this flaky thing. At the age of 12, I started visiting dermatologists for this problem. They recommend me different shampoos but nothing worked for me.  They worked for me as long as I was using them. After that I was again with this issue. It got worse day by day. Last year, I was browsing online and I found a link for top 5 shampoos for dandruff control. Neutrogena T/Gel was on second in that list. First one was Nizoral. I tried to find Nizoral but I was unable to find it easily. While T/Gel was available. I bought one bottle from a superstore. It comes in a transparent plastic bottle with blue lid on top. This is again packed in a cardboard box. It contains Col Tar 0.5%. It claims for long-lasting relief of itching and flaking and controls the symptoms of Dandruff, Seborrhea dermatitis, Psoriasis. Let’s see did it work for me or not :)


My Experience:                                                                                                                   

It is a thick gel and brown in colour. It makes great lather on scalp and hairs. Fragrance is quite strong and unpleasant. I didn't like that .Honestly it didn't work for me at all. The day I washed my hair, my scalp was dandruff free but very next day it was back again. I have used this product twice in a week (as mentioned on bottle) for many days but I haven't seen any change. I can't say it stops persistent itching or not because I am not suffering from itching. My problem is flaky scalp and for that it didn't helped in any way. Someone told me to keep it on scalp for at least 30 minutes so that it can work. But spending 30 extra minutes in shower? Arggg Big no. In this fast pace era who can wait for 30 minutes for a miracle to happen in shower. If I talk about hair, yes it’s a bit harsh on hairs by making them dry but not too much as like other anti dandruff shampoos do. I am not saying it’s a bad product. It might work for few people but not for me. I feel my problem is severe and old.



Price and Quantity:


It costs Rs.675 for 130ML

Liked:

  • Doesn’t make hairs dry or unmanageable
  • Good results on very first day
  • Has good results on some people so far

Disliked:

  • Strong and unpleasant smell
  • Pricey in accordance to quantity
  • Unable to control dandruff permanently even for one day

 Rating:


 4 out of 10


Repurchase:


No. I have found another shampoo which has solved my problem. I will review that in next posts.
Stay tuned :)

L'Oreal Elvive Active Selenium Anti-Dandruff Shampoo Review

I have used every shampoo, well known products and  dermatologists  prescriptions  for dandruff control.  But nothing worked for my scalp. My dandruff was too stubborn. I was very disappointed. I stopped finding any cure for it. On my visit to a super store, I caught the sight of L’Oreal Elvive Active Selenium Anti-Dandruff Shampoo on the counter shelf. I grab it just to wash my hairs like any other shampoo. I was already disappointed of the results I got from famous anti dandruff products that I had used in the past. So this was just an ordinary shampoo for me.  The shampoo comes in a large dark blue plastic bottle. The product claims effective from first use, effective results for up to 4 weeks, even if you stop using it. Reduces the appearance of persistent flakes. Let’s find out their claim proven to be right or wrong ;) My Experience:   It is densely thick and light orange in color. It makes great foam unlike other dandruff shampoo. Th...

Hello Friends,  I am happy to know that I am the first one to write a review about Swiss Miss Lipstick ;) Do you remember? We have seen our mothers and aunts using Medora and Swiss Miss lipsticks in the past. Both of them are probably the pioneers of establishing the cosmetics trend in Pakistan. Swiss Miss is a brand of Admiral of New York. My review of today is on Swiss Miss Lipstick shade Pretty Pink. I am in love with pink shades. It catches my sight everywhere, whether I am buying clothes, shoes, bags or cosmetics. This purchase happened due to my love for pink :) I have never bought any product of Swiss Miss before. This is my first purchase from Swiss Miss. I loved the packaging. In fact it makes it look like an expensive lipstick. It comes in a black plastic tube with a thin silver line around the opening. This tube is again covered in black cardboard box with product details and ingredients mentioned. The box says “vibrant color matte lipstick”...

Hello My Dear friends ! How are you all? My today's review is on a local brand Medora of London which contains a wide range of lipsticks and nail polishes. They are easily available nationwide on all cosmetic stores. This brand is made in Pakistan.Their lipsticks and nail polishes are my favourite ones. They have a wide range of matte ,shiny and glittery lipsticks. Matte lipsticks are my favourite ones.I like to use matte lipsticks due to their long lasting staying power. I am not a bold colour lover. I always love to go with nude,pink or peach colours . But I love trying different nail and lipstick colours. As I love nude colours, this shade of Medora named Viva Glam #235 is in my use from many years. I love this colour and it suits me too that's why its in my make up box from many years. I meant not the same lipstick :D. I repurchase it whenever i am out of this colour. Packaging is just OK. It comes in a dark Gray plastic tube which is covered outside in a c...
