Just Herbs Rejuvenating Beauty Elixir Facial Serum + Just Herbs Af'fair Skin Lightening Night Cream Review
January 06, 2016
After finishing the Za Perfect Solution Youth Whitening Serum, I started using these 2 products for my night-time skincare - the Just Herbs Rejuvenating Beauty Elixir Facial Serum and the Just Herbs Af'fair Skin Lightening Night Cream. The reason was simple. The elixir/serum was not enough for moisturizing my dry skin. I wanted to use a product from the same brand, along with the elixir. Since I already had a sample size of the Just Herbs night cream, I decided to use it, and hence the combined review. Let us see how this combo worked for my skin...
Product Description
Just Herbs Rejuvenating Beauty Elixir: This multi-tasking night serum is a synergistic blend of treasured Indian herbs to nourish and restore a natural glow and youthfulness to tired, ageing and pigmented skin. Plant polyphenols, carotenoids and flavonoids present in these precious botanicals prevent and reverse free-radical and DNA damage and block the inflammatory changes that result during the skin ageing process.
Just Herbs Af'fair Skin Lightening Night Cream: A blend of exotic natural extracts of wonder herbs, this night cream helps to fade away dark patches and spots.

Packaging
Just Herbs Rejuvenating Beauty Elixir is housed inside a dark glass bottle with a dropper. Dark-colored glass is usually used to retain the therapeutic powers of the ingredients; so that is good. But somehow the consistency of the elixir/serum is not dropper-friendly; and getting it out is not a smooth process.

Just Herbs Af'fair Skin Lightening Night Cream comes in a tub with a screw-open lid. The full size tub looks different from the picture of the sample-size tub seen in the picture below. But it is a tub packaging nevertheless.

My Experience
Just Herbs Rejuvenating Beauty Elixir is a facial serum to be used at night. It smells like bread and wheat to me, and is fine. It has a thick consistency but is easy to apply and quick to absorb on skin. Once absorbed, the elixir feels like nothing on skin. I suppose this may be a good thing for oily skin.
Getting the dropper to dispense the elixir is a pain though. Most of the product appears to be stuck inside the dropper and comes out with difficulty. I hope Just Herbs changes this dropper for a more product-friendly alternative. As of now, I cannot make optimum use of this product.
I used this during December here in Bangalore. This elixir did not moisturize my dry skin due to which I had to use their night cream over this. Since I was not expecting moisturization, I was okay with it.
I wanted to see it work on uneven skin-tone and pigmentation. But it didn't. I have read a lot about it being great for oily skin and acne. So maybe it is good for those issues. In my case, it did not do anything. Maybe it will give results with prolonged usage but I am not sure.

Just Herbs Af'fair Skin Lightening Night Cream is a white-colored cream which is neither thin or thick in consistency, and is just right. It smells similar to their Apricot Scrub which I have used earlier. The cream is easy to apply and spread; and gets absorbed into skin easily too. As the name suggests, it is to be used at night and aims at skin lightening. I used both the elixir and this night cream for around a month till the end of December. Though I did not see any skin-lightening effects, this night cream really made my skin soft and supple... very soft. It was nice, and I liked it. It is meant for normal to dry skin and it provided the needed moisturization for my dry skin in winter, without making it greasy like some other night creams do.

Overall Impression
While I am not really impressed with the Just Herbs Rejuvenating Beauty Elixir, I do love the Just Herbs Af'fair Skin Lightening Night Cream a lot! I started using this combo in the beginning of December, and stopped at the end of the month. So this review is based on that one month. I have another unopened bottle of the elixir/serum which I got in my Fab Bag. I plan to give it one more try in summer maybe and I will update this review at that time if my views change. For now, I will recommend only the Just Herbs Af'fair Skin Lightening Night Cream.
