Sometimes you just want a light cream that you can use every day, without any fuss. Nourishing Skin Cream by Himalaya is just such a daily skin cream. It is light, non-greasy, and you apply it to your face, neck, and body. The formula is based on aloe vera, supplemented with extracts of ashwagandha and Centella asiatica. The jar contains 150 ml.
Aloe vera is the gel-like sap from the leaves of the aloe plant. It consists mostly of water and feels fresh on the skin. In this cream, it provides moisture together with glycerine. Glycerine is a substance that attracts and retains water in the upper layer of the skin. Paraffin oil and cetyl alcohol (a fatty alcohol, so not a drying alcohol) lay a smooth layer over it.
That is where the plant extracts come in. You may know Withania somnifera as ashwagandha, or winter cherry in English. In Ayurvedic skincare, the root has been used for centuries. Centella asiatica is called water primrose in Dutch and is a well-known name in Asian skincare, often as "cica". An apple extract completes the list. Himalaya places these plants in a light base, so that the cream remains suitable for all skin types.
The difference with the richer creams from Himalaya lies in the texture. This skin cream is airier and absorbs quickly, allowing you to put clothes on right after. Many people wonder if you can also use it on your face. Yes, you can: Himalaya expressly mentions face, neck, and body. Do avoid the eyes. If you have very dry skin, the Intensive Moisturizing Cream or the Olive Extra Nourishing Cream may suit you better.
In short: Nourishing Skin Cream is a light, daily cream with aloe vera, ashwagandha, and Centella. A 150 ml jar for everyone in the household who likes to use a simple cream.
Three plants from Ayurvedic and Asian skincare, complemented by an apple extract.
Non-greasy, so you can get dressed immediately after applying.
A cream for all skin types, so you don't need separate jars.
More than enough to apply every day to your face and body.

Yes. Himalaya recommends it for the face, neck, and body, and the cream is suitable for all skin types. Gently massage it into the cleansed skin and avoid contact with the eyes.
No, it is a light, non-greasy cream. It absorbs quickly, so you can immediately apply clothing or makeup over it.
Himalaya indicates 6 months after opening, as shown by the open jar symbol with 6M. Store the jar in a cool, dry place and close it tightly after use.
Maybe for just your face, but most people also use this cream on their body. Then you'll use it up within a few months, well within the shelf life after opening.
Centella asiatica is a creeping plant from Asia, known in Dutch as watercress. In skincare, it is also known as cica. This cream contains an extract of it, along with ashwagandha and aloe vera.
Nourishing Skin Cream is lighter and focuses on aloe vera and plant extracts. Intensive Moisturizing Cream is richer and contains more oil, such as almond and wheat germ oil. For normal skin, this light cream is often sufficient; for dry skin, the intensive variant is a logical choice.
