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

5 Awesome beauty/personal care products under INR100 (2$)

Call me crazy but I think shopping in a limited budget is fun in its own way. Here these are five random inexpensive products that I like. Hope you guys find some useful ideas here for economic and guilt free spending.

1.     Lakme Rose Powder

INR 90 for 40g

 After spending 750 bucks on powder foundation instead on a loose powder by mistake, I had asked you guys for suggestions. IK from Makeup Monologues( which btw is the most awesome beauty blog) had suggestion lakme or body shop loose powder , guess which one I went with.. the cheaper one. J But I so… love it, it’s a decent loose powder and has got sunscreens too.! And you get a lot of product for 90 Bucks. Lakme Rose powder comes in two shades one for fair complexion and one for wheatish complexion.

2.     Himalaya Pure Hands herbal hand sanitizer

INR 39 for 50ml

I have recently joined the hand sanitizer craze and I think this is a simple but perfect one. Along with ensuring hand hygiene it also moisturises. Plus it has got natural ingredients.

3.     Vaseline healthy white body skin whitening body milk

INR 65 for 100ml

I keep coming back to this moisturiser. I looove its fragnance which also reminds me of my hometown cuz I used to use this back then. It contains yogurt serum, vitamin B3, Triple sunscreen for fairer and healthy looking skin. Now I don’t know about the whitening claim but this is the most awesome and economic moisturiser.

4.     Ponds white beauty daily spotless lightening cream

INR 49 for 15g

This isn’t exactly economic but you can buy this tube as a trial pack. I know a lot of people don’t like this that much but it works for me. It contains pro vitamin B3 and multiple UV protection. If you do like this cream, try to buy the sachets if you can find them, cuz they are wayyy more cheaper than the tube or the jar.

5.     Himalaya Herbals Gentle Refreshing Toner

INR 70 for 100 ml

If you are like me and often wonder how necessary toners really are, why don’t you just by an inexpensive one.  I recently read that you can skip the toner step unless you have oily skin. Oh well I am an oily so I cannot skip this step, so this is a great toner by Himalaya which promises to refresh the skin and keep it oil free. It is also alcohol free. Yay.

            Have you used any of these products?

The Body Shop Moisture White Shiso Range ( Product Information)

My sister got these two products from the TBS Shiso Japanese formula series. I am not reviewing these products cuz they belong to my sis, but I have used the serum a couple of times and liked it. As for the UV protection cream I have already told you that SPF> 15 irritates my skin. I’ll give this a try later  though.

From the site:

Shiso extract is combined with Vitamin C, liquorice and Community Trade organic aloe, a blend of ingredients providing the Moisture White™ range with the efficiency to address hyperpigmentation. Vitamin C is included as it provides antioxidant protection, helping to reduce melanin production. Liquorice extract from the root of the Glycyrrhiza Glabra plant is chosen by The Body Shop for the Moisture White™ collection as it helps address hyperpigmentation.

White Shiso Whitening Serum

Price: INR1995 for 30ml

Daily luminous hydration infused with shiso, vitamin C, liquorice and community trade aloe vera. Apply morning and evening before moisturizing.

Moisture White UV Protection Cream

Price : Between INR 2000 to 2500 for 30 ml ( don’t remember the exact price)

SPF 20 PA+++

Daily UVA/B protection. Softens Skin and helps prevent uneven skin pigmentation. With Vitamin C and liquorice extract.

For all skin types.

An easily absorbed, oil free cream that helps protect skin against harmful UVA and UVB rays and the formation of dark spots and discolouration. Use daily after whitening serum

You know how body shop is, they have launched tons of products in this range. Like cleansing powder, eye cream, foundation, treatment mask, cleansing oil. *sighs* Okay nevamind, as I was saying my sister liked these products a lot, but still I think they are crazy expensive. I think I’ll stick to fair and lovely when I am in need of fairness. ;)

It’s a great range, do give it a try if u want to.

So have you used any whitening products, what are ur favs?
