Hello girls. Today I am with Lotus Herbals Alphamoist Alpha Hydroxy Skin Renewal Oil Free Moisturizer Review. As we all know summer is a very crucial time for our skin too. We have to keep our skin supple and hydrated not internally but externally too. Along with a good diet it is necessary to cleanse, tone and moisturise the skin properly too. Oily or heavy moisturisers don’t work well in summers as they make the skin sweaty and oily. They don’t get absorbed well in the skin. That is one reason I was in search of a good moisturiser which provides enough hydration to my skin yet don’t feel greasy or heavy. Today I am going to review Lotus Alphamoist alpha hydroxy skin renewal oil free moisturiser.
Let me tell you that I have dry skin which gets stretchy and itchy if not moisturised properly. Some moisturisers meant for dry skin are heavy in texture so they make me feel uncomfortable. A good moisturiser also works as great makeup bases as it hydrates the skin well and removes all the flakiness and dry patches which can make your makeup look unblended and patchy. I have tried many Lotus products before so I was having some expectations from this moisturiser. Read on to know whether it fulfilled my expectations or not:
Price : Rs. 195/- for 80 ml.
Directions for use : cleanse face thoroughly. Apply lavishly all over face and neck. Use regularly in morning and evening.
Key ingredients :
Shelf life : 3 years.
Color : Its milky white in color
Smell : It has a pleasant aloe smell.
What Lotus Alphamoist alpha hydroxy skin renewal oil free moisturiser claims
Plant derived Alpha Hydroxy extracts present in this light moisturizer replenish moisture, provide a vibrant smooth complexion and reveal fresh newer skin. The complexion is rejuvenated into looking and feeling younger.
My experience with Lotus Alphamoist alpha hydroxy skin renewal oil free moisturiser
The moisturiser comes in a cream coloured opaque bottle with a pump dispenser. This type of packaging is not only travel friendly but also convenient to use as compared to bottle and tub packaging. Lotus Herbals Alphamoist Alpha Hydroxy Skin Renewal Oil Free Moisturizer is having very fresh aloe- cucumber scent which lingers on for some time after application. The consistency of the moisturiser is creamy it is not runny. It spreads easily on the skin and gets absorbed fast without leaving any oily residue on the skin on application. Since it is water based it feels very lightweight on the skin. Although Lotus products claim to be herbal but most or all of them contains parabens which is the case with this moisturiser too.
Lotus Herbals Alphamoist Alpha Hydroxy Skin Renewal Oil Free Moisturizer is meant for all skin types but I feel that it will work for oily and normal skinned girls the most. I have dry skin and after applying this moisturiser my skin still feels dry and stretchy. I have even applied Lotus Herbals Alphamoist Alpha Hydroxy Skin Renewal Oil Free Moisturizer multiple times but the result is still the same. However its claims of oil free and smooth skin are true as it is very lightweight and does not makes skin oily. My skin feels smooth post application. The moisturiser is a strict no for dry skinned gals and it is best for oily skinned ones as it will not feel greasy and will work as a great makeup base. As for me I have to hunt for another moisturiser which is thick enough to hydrate my skin but also oil free and lightweight. This one does not provide my skin any hydration no matter how many times I apply so I sadly have to part ways with it. Lotus Herbals Alphamoist Alpha Hydroxy Skin Renewal Oil Free Moisturizer may be an HG moisturiser for many oily skinned girls.
To sum up Lotus Herbals Alphamoist Alpha Hydroxy Skin Renewal Oil Free Moisturizer is a very nice light weight, oil free and fast absorbing moisturiser which makes it perfect for summers. But sadly it does not provide enough hydration for dry skin and is best suited for oily skin.
