Hello everybody !
Hope you had a nice and relaxing weekend.In today's post I'll be talking about a moisturiser from the brand ananda.I received a sample of it in my envy box long time back but completely forgot to use it then. Ananda is a luxury destination spa in the himalayan foothills in northern India which also sells its own skincare and haircare products on their website and also on nykaa.com.
About the product
A light non greasy cream infused with balancing rose and hydrating sandalwood,helps prevent early signs of ageing,hydrates,stimulates cell renewal and smooths fine lines.Rose stimulates cell renewal and sandalwood protects against environmental aggressors which leave skin soft,supple and rejuvenated.
Price : Rs.1350/- (50g)

My Take
The moisturiser comes housed inside a lightweight plastic tub packaging.There isn't any difference between the designing of the sample and full size (50g) product except the size of the tub/container.It has a simple and convenient packaging.The first thing that I did when I received it was to sniff it and oh boy ! the rose and sandalwood scent of this moisturiser is so pleasing.I'm not a big fan of rose scents but this time I really like it.The mild fragrance is quite calming and sweet though it doesn't last for a long time.Texture of this cream is very silky,soft and light.It gets absorbed quickly while blending leaving skin feeling smooth and supple all day long. Also it doesn't make my combination skin oily even though this cream is for normal to dry skin. I think it's a really nice moisturiser for daytime specially for summers because it's not at all greasy or heavy on skin.This works for me and if you've oily skin,they have a cream for that too (check out on their website).I've finished using the sample and I would love to buy the full size but at Rs.1350 it's quite expensive.Not sure whether I'll repurchase it at this price but I highly recommend this cream to everyone whose looking for a natural,light and a non greasy moisturiser.
lots of love,aditi

Hi jayshree !
DeleteIt hydrates my combination skin really well without making it greasy and oily.I'm not facing any acne or pimple issues currently so I cannot comment on that.If you've very oily skin this might take some time to get absorb completely so I'd suggest you to try ananda moisturiser meant specifically for oily skin and see if it works for you :)
I may skip this as I have oily skin :)
ReplyDeletewow this seems so amazing. I also dont like rose scents but if you liked it, it must be good :
