MRP: Rs.1195/- for 50ml

Ingredients:

It comes in a glass jar packaging and is light pink in color. Has a very weird smell though :/

I like water based gel creams and this is exactly that. Super light in texture and absorbs in a jiffy. It feels cool and soothing on application. It does hydrate the skin, but feels a little silicony. It would make as a great primer underneath makeup.

During the current winters though, I do need extra hydration at times,above this. I feel it launched here at a wrong time. This is the perfect summer product. Though Mumbai is humid and we do not see winters here, so it works.

As you can see in the ingredients, wheatgerm oil, soyabean oil, Tocopherol, Parkii Butter are the hydrating ingredients and Vitamin E part.

But I would recommend this for oily skin and/or for use in summers. I would switch back to this in summers. For now since the chill is just beginning to set in, I would switch to a heavier cream.

Also it contains alcohol as per the ingredients which dries skin more, so dry skin would not particularly like this,especially right now. If you have dry skin but live in a humid place like Mumbai, this would still work.

Overall, I would say its a good product. Only issue would be the smell and the alcohol. Would recommend using it for summers.
