Night Creams have been around for some time now yet many of
us have not incorporated them into the daily skin care routine. Hopefully
this review helps you take that first step.
So what are night creams and why do we need one??? Well
night creams as compared to day creams are more thicker and heavier in texture.
They come minus any SPF and since our skin repairs itself while we sleep, these
creams are generally made with ingredients that not just nourish but even treat
and repair our skin and help in cell renewal process.
Alright so I am a huge fan of night creams and The Body Shop Vitamin E Nourishing Cream is the one I have been using for the last few months
Here’s what The Body
Shop has to say this cream - With rich wheat germ oil to replenish and
revitalize skin while you snooze. A rich, nourishing cream that helps replenish
antioxidant and moisture levels overnight, when the skin is at its most
receptive. It leaves skin feeling soft and smooth.
So like I mentioned earlier this cream too is
really thick and feels heavy on the skin and makes it look a little greasy.. It
spreads easily and takes around a min or two to get absorbed into the skin and hence
just a pea size amount is sufficient for the face. Which is why one tub will
last you for a very very long time. I
have been using mine for the last 10 months (yes that’s how long one tub
has lasted). This light pink coloured cream has a very faint fragrance which fades away in no time
With Coco Butter and Vitamin E as its main ingredients this cream definitely does what it claims – it moisturises, repairs and leaves my skin looking healthy and glowing each day.
Packaging wise it comes in a similar coloured plastic tub, which is something I am not too fond of. I don’t quite like to dip my finger into any product as its extremely unhygienic. Anyway, I use a tiny spatula to scoop out the required amount of product every day and that helps in keeping my tub germ free. The tub packaging is quite sturdy and travel friendly as well.
Rating: 4.75 / 5 (-0.25 for the tub packaging)
