Lakme Fruit Moisture Strawberry Night Cream Review

Lakme Fruit Moisture Skin Renewal Night Cream with Strawberry,Kiwi and Passionfruit Review

Lakme Fruit Moisture Skin Renewal Night Cream with Strawberry,Kiwi and Passionfruit Review




What the Company claims: Fight Winter Dryness while you sleep with Lakmé Strawberry Night Crème
 Wake up to youthful skin with this ultra-nourishing blend of juicy strawberries, 4 Hydrating Agents & 1 Anti-oxidant. Formulated with Nutritiv Moisture Technology, it works with your skin’s natural night-time revival process and implants your cells with moisture for 12-long hours. So when you wake up after a good night’s sleep, you skin will look nourished and youthful.

Ingredients:

  MRP: Rs.130/- for 50g

Its a pink colored thick cream with a very strong artificial strawberry scent. Though its thick it does gets absorbed into the skin in a few minutes. It keeps the skin supple and moisturised until the next morning but it does not do anything else. It has this new twisted Lakme packaging..but the only thing is the opening of the tub being narrow at the top..it becomes difficult to take the cream when its half over.

Pros:

1. Keeps skin supple and moisturised.
2. Gets absorbed within a few minutes.
3. Did not break me out.
4. Its more suitable for dry skin or in winters. I guess people with dry skin might like it more.
5. Economical..since the product lasts long.

Cons:

1. Tub packaging and narrow mouth makes it difficult to use when half over.
2. Strong artificial strawberry smell.
3. It does not do anything except keep the skin moisturised..and that even my normal moisturiser when used at night would do..I did not see any change in my skin at all.

Overall its an ok product. But my HG Himalaya Night Cream works more for me and I am quite happy with that.

Quality: 3/5
Value for money: 3.5/5

Would I buy it again: No

P.S: Product gifted by brand.

Johnsons Ph 5.5 Nourishing Honey Body Wash Review

Johnsons Ph 5.5 Nourishing Body Wash with Honey Review



What the Company claims:

Ingredients:

MRP: Rs.260/- for 750ml (huge qty)

Johnsons Ph 5.5 Nourishing Body Wash with Honey…with the name you know it would have a nice warm honey smell. And as its Ph Balancing Body wash its neither too drying nor does it leave a film on the skin..leaves my skin soft,clean and moisturised..just as I prefer…its my HG Body Wash.

Its a white runny lotion..has a nice warm scent to it..comes in a pump dispensor packaging. This one is made in Malaysia and I had got it from Alfa..so I am not very sure of it being available here locally.

Pros:

1. Leaves skin soft and moisturised.
2. Foams nicely.
3. You just need 1-2 pumps for the whole body. And since it comes in this huge 750 ml bottle it would easily last you 7-8 months.
4. Economical.
5. Has the benefits of oats,glycerin and honey.
6. Of all the body washes I have used till now..I love this one and hence its my Holy Grail.
7. Its 100% soap free.
8. Ph 5.5 Balanced..hence it would adjust to the normal Ph of skin and keep it balanced.

Cons:

1. Has SLS.
2. Not travel friendly as its a huge bottle.
3. Availability is an issue. I am not aware if its available locally.

Overall I am in love with this body wash and Ya I only use this and from last so many months…This is still going strong. I guess I am going to use this forever.

Skin Foods

Skin Foods

Foods are very important for the skin. Some types of foods actually feed the skin too. We use all sorts of creams and lotions on our skin externally but it is extremely important for the skin to be healthy and glowing internally, and for that we need to take care of it from within too, feeding it with the right stuff. I, being a Vegetarian always had some problems as eggs and sea food were out of the list already.
