Himalaya Revitalising Night Cream – Snap Review

In winters, my oily skin faces major identity crises! It produces the same amount of insane oil but looks and feels dry. Thus it becomes necessary for me to moisturise my skin properly. I prefer to use a night cream so that my face does not become an oily mess in the day time.

Price: INR90 for 25gms. Also available in 50gm pack for INR170

What it claims: A deep penetrating daily use cream, that has Apple, Lemon and Tomato rich in Natural Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) which revitalise your skin. Wheatgerm a natural anti-oxidant, and Vitamin E protect and moisturizes your skin.

Good For:

Dry, lackluster skin

Skin exposed to harsh environmental conditions and pollution

Ingredients Include:

Pyrus malus (Crab Apple, Seva)

Triticum sativum (Common Wheat, Godhuma)

Citrus limon (Lemon, Nimbaka)

Lilium polyphyllum (White Lily, Ksirakakoli)

Solanum lycopersicum (Tomato, Raktamaci)

Directions for Use: Apply on cleansed face and neck each night, when skin is most receptive for repair and renewal. On waking your skin in soothed, soft and revitalised.

Why I like this cream:

Moisturises my skin well without breaking me out. It is a good cream for nourishing the skin, as it claims to. Himalaya’s products are hypo allergic, thus people with sensitive skin can use it without any problem. I find this night cream to be an great option for people who are looking for mainly conditioning and nourishing their skin.

My Rating: 4/5

Paisa Vasool( Is it worth the money?): Yes

So what cream are you using currently for your face?  Have you used this cream?

GingerSnaps turns one!

Welcome to GingerSnaps’s Birthday Bash!!
Grab some drinks and make yourself comfortable girls!! (If you are a guy, I am really not judging you, you can watch some cricket in that corner, okay?)

So as I was saying, on this day, one year ago, I wrote my first post on GingerSnaps about -Bodyshop Japanese Cherry Blossom Body Mist. I remember when I used to click pictures of Nailpaints & Hair Masques, and my mother used to shake her head with a worried look on her face. I think I have almost made her understand about blogging, almost.

One year anniversary also reminds me that I should finally write in the about section what my blog is actually about.. Hehe.. For me GingerSnaps is like one of those things, If you do not ask me I know, If you ask me I do not know.. J I would update with a formal, boring, uptight description of GingerSnaps later, but honestly, this blog is about EVERYTHING. Everything that makes me “khush” in the “dil” everything that I want to share with the blogosphere. And this totally is the kind of blog where if you don’t know how to take things with at least four pinches of salt, don’t even bother reading.

*gets a little emotional*

What a wonderfully amazing year this has been. Through the world of blogging I have gotten to know some of the most incredible, beautiful, sexy, witty people, and learned a thousand little amazing things. And I wanted to thank all the readers, and fellow bloggers from the bottom of my "khush dil".

*sees that people are getting impatient and are stealing glances towards the dance floor*

Ummmm…. Okayeeee……. Now let’s get this party going ladies… wohoooooo….

*breaks some moves to “Moves like Jagger”*
