Review: Great but puzzling! - This moisturiser comes with aesthetic looks and a unique way designed to open the package. The tube is upside down which makes it easier to access the lotion. I have attached some pictures below so, you can see it. The texture is like white creamy liquid. It doesn't have any kind of fragrance (which is good.) The lotion gets absorbed in the skin easily after rubbing it a few times. It's effective and leaves your skin moisturised for a long time. If you are buying it for the first time like me, then remember to do a patch test before applying it completely on your body. First, just apply it on the back side of your palm gently and leave it for 1-2 hours. If you don't feel any kind of irritation then just apply it on your arms and legs. (Don't go for the full body yet.) If you again don't feel any kind of itchiness or irritation then you're good to go. You can start applying it on your full body (don't apply it on your face.) This is body lotion and not a face cream. I tried using it on my face for curiosity but it made my face all dry. The weight is just 180 grams. For me it's enough to last for a month or so. However, it depends on your skin type. It does cost a bit. But, you can give it a try. Now, here comes the puzzling part. I've been applying it for the last 15 days or even more. I don't seem to notice any kind of change. Sure, It does help me moisturising my skin. However, apart from that I don't see any kind of change. I'm confused whether it's really affecting my pigmentation (for the better) or not. Whether it's making my skin healthy or not. I know it's only meant for moisturising the skin and not for any fairness treatment. For just moisturising the skin it's good. Apart from that, don't expect any kind of surprises from it. That's all I have to say. I'm rating this 5 stars because it serves the purpose it describes.
Review: Good Moisturizer at a great price - This review is after using it for 2 years.Best moisturizer on the market which is light and non sticky and yet keeps you moisturised for a long duration and it is also chemical and fragrance free with good absorbency. I am reducing 1 star just because they switched bottle design from pop off to twist off which is a bit of inconvenience to me.

## Features

- A well-balanced formula containing humectants, emollients and occlusives to keep skin hydrated & moisturized throughout the day
- Multi-functional Niacinamide (5%) repairs epidermal barrier function, reduces transepidermal water loss resulting in improvement in the moisture levels of the skin, stimulates ceramide synthesis, and soothes skin
- Glycerin, a known humectant at a high concentration of 20% keeps skin hydrated. At this concentration, Glycerin is proven to significantly increase skin corneometer values, indicating an increased hydration, after just 10 days of application
- Formulated with Shea Butter & Caprylic/​Capric Triglyceride as emollients to keep skin soft. Petrolatum, being a potent occlusive, reduces TEWL (transepidermal water loss) and keeps skin hydrated throughout the day
- The key ingredient (Niacinamide) is sourced from Lonza, Switzerland; a global science-based company
