Hi there, today I am going to review a moisturizing lotion that I have been using for some time now. The awesome thing is it can double up as a body lotion as well as a face moisturizer. Without further ado, here I present my review of Just Herbs Cascade Moisturizing Day Care Lotion.
About Just Herbs Cascade Moisturizing Day Care Lotion
Just Herbs is known to make natural and organic beauty products. I have used this particular moisturizer once before and was really happy with the results. The last time I used it, it was summers, so to check all year performance, this time I ordered it in the dry winter season.
But before diving into the review of Just Herbs Cascade lotion, let’s see some details about it.
Packaging, ingredients & other details of Just Herbs Cascade Moisturizing Lotion
Packaging
This comes in standard Just Herbs packaging, plastic, transparent bottle with a small pump. The small pump dispenses the right amount of product, so it reduces wastage.
Travel-friendly & Leak-proof
The pump bottle has a transparent outer cap to stop accidental presses as well as keep the product hygienic. This double protection ensures the bottle is leak-proof and travel-friendly.
The bottle is neither too big nor too small. It can be carried in the handbag but with new bottle weight of the bag may increase. I would recommend reusing an old lip balm or similar small tub and keep the required amount in it.
Ingredients
The entire list of ingredients is published on the bottle. Active ingredients are listed at the top, and then other ingredients category details out all the ingredients used in this. A big Thumbs Up to Just Herbs for publishing the complete ingredients list.
Key ingredients are:
- Aloe vera leaf juice 5%,
- cold-pressed wheatgerm oil 4%,
- cold-pressed jojoba oil 4%,
- cold-pressed apricot kernel oil 2%,
- shea butter 2%
Who is it suitable for?
The company claims this lotion is for normal to dry skin. However, as you will see in my experience below, I found this lotion a bit dry during the winter season.
Claims
Surprisingly, I did not see any claims for this moisturizer. The bottle contained all the usual details except claims. My take away is, this moisturizer won’t fix any skin issues.
How to use Just Herbs Cascade Moisturizing Day Care Lotion
The bottle contains the usage instructions at the back. Wash face and apply the required amount on wet skin.
I have used this lotion on completely dry as well as little moist skin. And in my opinion, this performs better when used on moist skin. So, try on dry as well as moist skin and see which works best for you.
Texture & Appearance
It has thin lotion consistency, neither too runny nor too thick, with a slight pink colour. Due to its thin lotion consistency, it is very easy to apply and sinks into the skin within no time without feeling heavy or sticky.
Fragrance
It has a light flowery smell which dissipates after application. The fragrance is not at all overbearing and shouldn’t bother even the most sensitive noses.
Price
Cost of 100ml bottle is INR 645. They generally have one or the other sale going on, so you may find it at a lower price. I bought it during a Buy 1 Get 1 sale and paid only for their sunscreen.
Availability
This is available in all the major online stores like Amazon, Flipkart, Nykka, and Just Herbs site.
I would suggest ordering from Just Herbs site as they have excellent customer support. If you are not sure about which product is right for you, just message them on Whatsapp and they will suggest the right product based on your age, skin condition, any specific problem. Their support is really awesome.
Apart from support, they also send free samples with all of their orders. Now I have only ordered from their site so not sure whether they send free samples with other online retailers or not. Message them on their WhatsApp number and ask :-).
My review of Just Herbs Cascade Moisturizing Day Care Lotion
I’m onto my second bottle of this wonderful moisturizer and I will say I’m pretty much satisfied with it. Even though it is a body cum face moisturizer, I have used it extensively for face due to price :-). And good thing, it didn’t break me out.
It keeps my skin lightly moisturized and soft without being sticky. In summers this is more than enough to keep skin the skin properly hydrated. Combined with a good sunscreen, this is all I need for a normal day.
During winters, I have felt some dryness, especially around nose bridge and lips. My skin feels dry and whitish so I reapply after 3-4 hours. So even though it claims to be suitable for normal to dry skin, it is more apt for normal to oily skin. This may become too dry for dry skinned beauties.
Is this Just Herbs Moisturizer for dry skin? Probably not.
Pros
- Did not break me out
- Good moisturization capability without feeling too heavy
- Subtle smell which fades away after application
- Light consistency means easy to apply
- Leak-proof and travel-friendly packaging
- The complete ingredient list is printed
Cons
- Expensive with 100ml lotion costing around INR 645
- Availability may be another issue, yet to find this brand in a physical store near me.
- Light moisturization may not suit very dry skin
- Does not claim to fix any skin problem, this is just a good moisturizer
Recommendation
I would recommend you to try this if you are looking for an organic or natural daily moisturizer.
Repurchase
I’m onto my second bottle and may repurchase in future as well. My skin loves this one during summers.
Rating
4 spoons of happiness
Conclusion
Just Herbs Cascade Day Care lotion is a decent lotion which doubles up as body as well as a face moisturizer. It is more suitable for normal to combination skin and may not provide enough moisturization for dry skin. It combines skin-beneficial oils, herbs along with other ingredients to nourish the skin.
