Alpes Goodness Neem Purifying Face Scrub Review
When it comes to skin purifying ingredients most of us think of neem in the first place right! Be it adult acne or teenage acne Indian summer makes it harder to deal with. Even the ones with normal to dry skin can get one or two acne or boil for the heat and sweat. Using something that's purifying without being harsh on the skin can stop your skin from breaking out.
Hi my lovely ladies. I have recently started shopping from purplle.com to try purplle exclusive brands. Alps Goodness is one such brand. This particular product caught my eye because of the ingredient neem. It's a neem scrub which is something I haven't tried before. So without any further introduction let's get into the review.
About The Brand
What comes to your mind when you imagine the might Alps? Beauty? Serenity? Holiday?

Price & Availability
Alps Goodness is a purplle exclusive brand available on purplle.com you can get it from there. MRP is Rs.99 for 30g of product.
Packaging
Comes in a classic plastic tub container which is not very sturdy. The lid is also not very secure I received the container in a messy state with the product spilled out of the tub.
Ingredients
This is actually very disappointing to see that there is not much details written about this product on the stickers of the tub. The ingredients list is very small and precise "contains neem extract, tulsi extract, fragrance, base Q.S." and I'm very disappointed with descriptions and ingredients list.
My Experience
Okay, so let's begin with the first application. I was already quite disappointed with this product because of the spillage and untidy tub packaging. I did not like the smell at all. It smells like one of those 90's fairness creams that the older people in my house used to use back then. I never liked that smell and this reminded me of those creams. Moving on to the texture, it has a mix of small and large particles which provides enough grittiness to scrub away dead cells but not enough to remove black or white heads. I was skeptical about it because of the thick creamy consistency as that might be comedogenic and lead to further breakouts but thankfully nothing like that happened. It did not break me out but neither did it stop any break outs. I have combination skin type with dry cheeks. This scrub moisturised my dry cheeks really well which means my already oily T-zone turned oilier. I'm not really happy with this product and I am not sure how well it works for skin purification as the name suggests. I guess it won't work that well on oily and acne prone skin rather it will suit dry and acne prone skin.
Pros

Do I Recommend?
If you have dry skin and looking for some moisturising scrub then you can go for it. It's good for winters. Oily and acne prone skin may get troubled for using this since it makes skin oilier.
Will I Repurchase?
No.
