Hello dear people! ❤️❤️❤️
I hope you all are doing great… ^_^
So, do you like using facial oils?
I have been using facial oils for years now. I usually make my own crude blends but I also love trying the ones available in the market… But as much as I love oils, one thing that I do not like about them is how most of them make my skin feel heavy and look greasy… Isn’t it annoying?
A couple of months back, I was approached by Just Herbs to use and review their facial oil. Having heard a lot about them, I decided to try it. I have been using their kimsukadi tail for quite some time now and I must say that I am pleasantly surprised by how lightweight it is! ❤️
Here is my complete review of the product… Read on to know all about it! ^_^

MY TAKE ON THE PRODUCT:
Just Herbs kimsukadi tail comes in an amber coloured glass bottle with a dropper cap. The outer cardboard box is peach in colour and has golden patterns on it… It looks really pretty! ❤️
The bottle is quite durable, doesn’t leak in any way and if you keep the box intact, you can carry it around as well. All important details like the list of ingredients, usage directions, mfd., etc., are printed on the cardboard packaging.
The oil is golden/yellow in colour and has a thin consistency. It is super lightweight, non-sticky and non-greasy. It has a mild fragrance – a bit herbal, a bit coconut-y.
I usually take a few drops of the oil and massage it on my face and neck for a couple of minutes. The oil spreads easily and gets completely absorbed into my skin in no time. Unlike other oils, it doesn’t make my skin feel heavy or make my face look oily and dark. It just nourishes my skin and leaves behind a velvety feel.
As I kept using the oil regularly, I noticed that my face was starting to look healthier and brighter than before. The oil does indeed add a glow to the skin when used religiously for some time. If you want to use this oil to fade pigmentation or for anti-ageing benefits, I feel that you may need to use it continuously for a couple of months to see any significant change. But if you just want to have healthy skin, you can see some difference in a week or so!
I have a normal skin type right now, and this oil provides just enough nourishment to my skin. So, I feel that people with combination to normal skin types can use it on its own, but people with drier skin types will need to use a moisturizer along with this.
Also, the brand mentions on the official product page to use this oil as a ‘night oil’, after applying a night cream. However, nothing as such is mentioned on the product and so, I tried it during the day, during the night, with cream, without cream, and it worked just fine for me in every way! 😛

**PR product but 100% honest review!**
I am fond of Just Herbs products. As this face oil is lightweight I am going to try it.
I love using light facial oils. It seems like a promising oil. Let me finish my current one and order this. I think I’m going to love.
I tried using one oil for my face and I had acne, post that I never used any. But as you mentioned that it is not sticky and leaves a velvety finish post getting absorbed, I would like to try this one.
I need not say that I loved the reviews. It’s a given. And always. But I have a few questions wrt the post. As an amateur I would like to know who can use face oils, how to use it, when to use it etc. Basically the questions about how -to. Requesting a blog about the same.
Kimsukadi sounds like a great choice for those who have immense faith in Ayurvedic and natural, herbal products. I would love to try my hands on it someday.
I generally dont use oils for face as my skin gets too oily n sweaty. But I am liking this product from your review and since you mentioned that this gets absorbed soon and doesnt make skin sticky I would love to try it. All herbal and natural products always win for me.
My wife loves facial oils; in fact just yesterday she was asking for a good recommendation from one of her friends. I will ask her to read your review and coax her into ordering Just Herbs Kimsukadi Tail.
Pure and quality oils are expensive as they don’t compromise with quality. I like using oils, need to try Just Herbs next.
I am very fond of this oil. Other than the price part I dont see any negatives in the product.
If u r recommending then I should try this facial oil & see its effects.
Now this is the perfect skin care and definitely would love to try out as the product looks promising… I have oily and sensitive skin can I use?
I would like to try this oil. But you are rightt, only regular use will show the results. The chemical free blends appeal to me.
I am little hesitant to use facial oils, but after reading your review I will plan to go for one.
I have never used oil on my face .. but your review makes me want to take the leap on adding Just herbs oil in my regime .. thanks and look forward to try it
The Just Herbs Kimsukadi Tail sounds like a nice and effective facial oil and good value for money. I especially like the fact that it is light and gets absorbed quickly.
Facial oils are so in from the K skin care trends. Not something I’ve tried but will check this one out.
I have never really used oil on my face. For some reason I never got around understanding why we should use an oil. This is good information and I would really like to try this out.
I prefer oil to Creams and moisturisers and always on lookout for oils that give a healthy skin and are light on skin. This seems to check all my points so will give it a try.
I heard a lot of good reviews about this product. The only con about this oil is it’s quiet expensive. Thanks for the review. I would recommend this to my sister
Oils don’t suit my face. I have to be very selective about the products I use. But your review looks good!
Having a healthy skin is what is important. And as you said Just Herbs Kimsukadi oil seems to provide that. I will try to look online and see if I can get one as I am struggling with my skin currently.
No doubt Just Herb products are good, I am using the serum and my skin looks good and clean. I haven’t used the tail, probably will order it for use this time. It will be a nice try. Good and honest review.
Yes I love to used facial oils for skin care and currently I m using patanjali one. I had not heard about the brand you had shared here but after reading your review felt it is really good one. Will check out it for sure.
Woww have never really tried the facial oils. Exactly because of it being greesy. But the review of Just Herbs Kimsukadi Tail seems like a great option
