Moisturising Cream for Dry to Very Dry Skin

Our Take

This is the formula most barrier creams are copying: three skin-identical ceramides (NP, AP and EOP) alongside cholesterol and phytosphingosine, the lipids the skin's own barrier is built from, set in a glycerin-and-petrolatum base that both draws water in and slows its escape. It is fragrance-free and essential-oil-free, which matters more here than in most products, because the people who need it are the ones whose skin reacts to everything. We'd note the claims wobble — the same listing promises 24-hour hydration in the text and 48 hours on the images, and the 80% dryness-relief figure comes from a study on legs, not faces — but the ingredient list supports what the brand says the cream does. The trade-offs are texture and price: it is a genuinely rich cream that oily skin will find heavy in Indian humidity, and at an MRP of ₹469 for 50 ml (about ₹9.40 a ml) it costs more than twice as much per gram as Re'equil's ceramide cream. For dry, sensitive or eczema-prone skin, though, it remains the benchmark we'd measure the rest against.

What buyers report

Reviewers describe a thick, rich cream that hydrates well and calms dry, flaky patches, and those with sensitive or breakout-prone skin report no reaction, in line with its fragrance-free formula. The caveats are weight and price: several call it heavy and best for dry skin or winter, one saying it made them sweat, and some find it a little costly.
