Review of Lotus Herbals ALPHAMOIST Alpha Hydroxy Skin Renewal Oil Free Moisturiser



Lotus Herbals ALPHAMOIST Alpha Hydroxy Skin Renewal Oil Free Moisturiser

Review article, Written by: Supriya Mandrupkar




Price & Quantity: Rs. 265/- for 80 ml (But you can always get good discounts online)
Shelf life: 3 years from the date of manufacture
What the product claims: Plant derived alpha hydroxyl extracts present in this light oil free moisturiser replenish moisture, provide a vibrant smooth complexion and reveal fresh newer skin. The complexion is rejuvenated into looking and feeling younger.
Directions for use: Cleanse face thoroughly. Apply lavishly all over face and neck. Use regularly in morning and evening.
Ingredients: 




Packaging: It comes packed in a light yellow coloured plastic bottle. It has pump style which is secured with a cap. The cap shuts properly making it travel friendly. The pump is very convenient and hygienic to use. It dispenses just the right amount of product hence avoids wastage of product. 



Fragrance: It has some herbal floral scent which I personally didn’t like much. But the smell doesn’t linger for long so sensitive noses won’t bother.

Colour, texture & consistency: It is milky white in colour. The texture is awesome. It is very smooth. The consistency of the product is neither too thick nor runny. It is absolutely wonderful. 

                        


My take on the product: I am totally in love with this product. This is the one moisturiser which I always go back to. It is water based and very light weight. True to its claims, it is completely oil free. It leaves no greasy feeling or no white cast behind. It just sinks into the skin like a dream.  The ingredient list is pretty impressive. It has almond oil, grapes extract, aloe vera, lactic acid and milk enzymes as the key ingredients. Due to presence of naturally derived alpha hydroxy acids, it offers gentle exfoliation to the skin. Skin feels soft, supple and rejuvenated with each use.
I use it as my daily moisturiser after cleansing and toning my face. It acts as a great makeup base. Neither oily zones nor dry patches.  Due to daily travelling in pollution, my skin was looking dull and tired. But since I have started using this moisturiser, it feels more even and bright. I also use it as night cream and it excels there also.
This moisturiser is suited for all skin types, but I think it will work wonders for normal, combination and oily skin types. Dry skinned beauties may want to use it during summers but for winters it may not be able to handle the dry skin alone. For me (normal to oily, acne prone skin) it works wonders. I use it all year round. And it never causes breakouts.
Pros:
1. Lightweight oil free moisturiser
2. Small quantity is sufficient so price is justified for the quantity
3. Bright and even complexion over time
Cons:
1. Presence of parabens.
2. Lack of SPF, so can’t skip sunscreen.
Sensible Lily Rating: 4.5/5
Final verdict: Lotus Herbals ALPHAMOIST Alpha Hydroxy Skin Renewal Oil Free Moisturiser is a boon for normal, combination, oily and acne prone skin which offers apt hydration without shine and skin rejuvenation benefits with regular use.
