Just herbs Elixir

I got on to the serum bandwagon recently. Serums are concentrated concoctions that do the trick with the tiniest bit of product. These help target problem areas and add a sort of radiance and glow to the skin. One such serum that I tried recently is the Just Herbs Rejuvenating Beauty Elixir Facial Serum Gotukola Indian Ginseng. The name is quite a handful; I am just going to refer it as Just Herbs Elixir.

The product claims to “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, flavonoids and carotenoids present in these precious botanicals are helpful in the treatment of spots and other forms of skin pigmentation, and also in diminishing fine lines and skin ageing.

Directions: Use the dropper to dispense a pea size amount on your palm. Apply to clean face before the moisturizer at night. Gently massage in circular motion till absorbed. For spot treatment, use 1-2 drops on the affected area. Alternatively, add a few drops to your cream or gel to boost their effect.”

My Experience with Just Herbs Elixir

Just Herbs Elixir serum comes in a tiny bottle packing with a dropper. The dropper helps dispense just the right amount of product for every use. The serum has a pale yellow colour with a slightly gritty texture. Despite the gritty texture the serum dissolves into the skin easily. It may initially leave a greasy feeling but this vanishes in minutes. I have almost used up this serum and I am impressed with it and glad I got to try it. With regular use of this serum I noticed that my skin looked brighter and had a mild glow to it. It did not break me out; in fact it helped calm my breakouts. However, it had little to no effect on the pesky blackheads my oily skin keeps popping up with. It has helped with the acne scars I have, however the effect is mild on old scars. I have used this serum in conjunction with my moisturizers and other night creams, and there have been no issues or mishaps with my skin going bad.

Some of the cons I could see with Just Herbs Elixir serum is that the smell it has isn’t so appealing. It’s not revolting but it isn’t pleasant either. But the fragrance doesn’t last long and this could easily be tolerated for a brief period of time. The serum also comes in glass packing, so ensure you take extra care. The price of this isn’t cheap either, but hey most serums are expensive. When you look at the overall picture Just Herbs Elixir serum comes out with glowing colours and it definitely makes your skin glow.

    1. Thanks Shwetali. It calms the skin well. Works on acne scars but it takes time. You have to give it a try once and see how it fares.

    1. This is the only product I have tried from Just Herbs and I love it. Definitely going to try more products from their range.

    1. It works on acne scars but you have to give it time. It’s better on new scars compared to scars which have been with you for ages.

  7. Gotukula is an ingredient whihc used by south-east Asians more on their skin and has been mentioned in our Ayurveda too. So I have great hopes from this product. Great review!

    1. That’s nice. A good pick for the product of your choice. I’m still waiting for my Jan bag to come. The month is almost over and I am getting super restless.

    1. The smell definitely isn’t appealing and I have a sensitive nose which doesn’t like most fragrances. But I was able to bare the smell and I didn’t linger on for long either.

    1. For my old scars I definitely need something heavy duty. But for the more recent ones it seemed to work nicely, though it did take time to show results.

    1. You have to give at least one serum a try, you’ll be impressed with the results. This is a nice product to try out.

    1. I would say this is somewhat cheaper compared to other serums in the market. And yes it has got quite a fan following.

    1. I don’t think this serum would be able to give that kind of dewy effect Sneha. It sinks into the skin and in sometime it doesn’t feel like you are wearing anything.

    1. Thanks Zubaida. The price is high but compared to other serums in the market it is quite affordable.

    1. The fragrance isn’t appealing. It’s quite off putting actually. But you’ll get past it and also the smell doesn’t linger.

    1. Mine just lasted a little over a month. So I’m not sure about that. Did it irritate your skin in any way?

  23. I always in search of good serum as my skin needs extra care now and I can surely do with a little glow. A bit expensive but as u said all serums are on the high end. Thanks for sharing.

    1. Thanks Anupam. Serum do give that extra boost our skin needs. If you are looking at the price point this is still cheaper compared to other products in the market.

    1. Thanks Anamika. Glad our review was helpful. Do try it out and let us know how it worked for you.
