Winter Essentials : St. D'Vence moisturiser (Autumn Edition)

It's winter finally in Kolkata! Yay! There is nothing like taking a walk on a winter afternoon, sipping on a cup of tea, having some hot soups and of course lazying around in your favourite blanket πŸ˜›. Like every season, it also comes with a set of challenges. 

Dry, itchy skin is a part and parcel of this weather. My skin gives me a tough time this time of the year. You can actually spot the dry marks on my skin this time. It feels rough most of the time, even after applying body lotion a while back. 


I recently came across St. D'Vence's new moisturizer which is a part of their autumn edition. This is the first beauty product you can pre-order on Amazon, a first in Amazon's 20-year-old history. The product will be available from 10 December onwards. 
The product came with a personalised note from the founder, seeking honest feedback which was an extremely thoughtful gesture.

First things first, I loved the packaging. It comes in a nice small plastic bottle.No hygiene issues there, so a big thumbs up πŸ‘. 

It mentions that the moisturiser is an ultra-nourishing one good for dry to very dry skin, which is exactly my skin type during winters. To test this claim, I used it only one hand. Trust me, I could feel the difference. The area where this product was used felt nicely hydrated and super soft for around 3 hours. Again, a πŸ‘for that. It absorbs into your skin within 2-3 seconds and has a nice non-greasy formula. 


The product description reads that it uses a blend of ten premium ingredients that hydrates the driest of skin.The ingredient list boasts of avacoado, argan oil, sunflower oil, til oil, coconut oil, alm

ond oil, jojoba oil, aloe vera and so on. All of them proven to act like magic for your skin. I love the combination especially the argan oil bit in it. I am a big fan essential oils and vouch for its benefits all the time. The fragrance is impressive too- Pleasant yet not too strong. πŸ˜‡

It is parabens free, does not contain harmful chemicals and is a 100 % vegetarian prduct.
100 ml of the product costs Rs. 275, which I feel is a good deal, given the ingredients used and the performance of the product.

I would definitely recommend this product for the winters. Here is the pre-order link for you : http://amzn.to/2iY884z
If you try the product, do share your thoughts on the product with me. It will be good to know what you think of the product.
