I have been trying out their new Holy Basil and Lily Face Cream everyday since the past one month and here is my review on it.

What the Company claims: A timeless blend of extracts of Holy Basil, Dandelion, White Lily & Lavender in Sesame Oil. Nourishes and protects skin from the elements, resulting in soft and radiant skin. Holy Basil naturally clarifies the skin while White Lily soothes it. Dandelion is naturally rejuvenating & revitalizing. Lavender supports healthy skin while imparting a soothing scent. Ideal for reviving a dull & sallow complexion. Excellent for blemish-prone skin.

It comes in this white and pink tube with a flip cap packaging. The cream is white in color and quite thick in texture. It needs to be blended well but does not leave any cast as such.

It has a strong herbal smell but not bothersome, pleasant kinds. It feels slightly sticky but needs some time to settle down. It gives a complete matte finish and would work for oily skin too. Dry skin might need a heavier moisturizer, but only for winters.

I have been using this since a month and I also had some break outs and this cream did help me fade the acne scars quicker.  The blend of holy basil, lavender and white lily is quite good for the skin being anti-inflammatory and helps renew the cells and fade scars, though one has to use it continuously to see results. The beeswax and sesame oil make it quite rich and moisturizing. I love using it beneath my foundation too, coz it leaves no dry patches on the skin and moisturizes well but giving a matte finish.

Being all natural and chemical, paraben free is always a plus. I agree it’s priced on the higher side but same goes for brands like Forest Essentials and Kama Ayurveda and this is equally good and comparable.

I do not like the fact that it does not have SPF, I do not prefer using 2-3 different products and like my moisturizers to have SPF in them. Also these are not easily available yet, currently I believe only on their online site. I hope they are soon available on all websites and in stores coz they have an amazing range of bath, body, hair, pain management products and also products for men.

Overall I really like this cream and still using it daily. Definitely recommend this, would work for all skin types.
