Iraya Nourishing Lotus Night Cream Review
May 03, 2016
When the kittens were new-borns, Mixie (like all mother-cats) developed a habit of relocating the little ones every now and then, sometimes every hour, but thankfully never out of the house. This habit of hers irritated me so much mainly because her idea of a 'safe' place did not exactly match with mine. For the same reason and for the safety of her own kittens, I decided to interfere... I allotted her visiting hours under my watchful eye so that she could feed and love them but never carry them away. Eventually she got the message and stopped it especially since the kittens were also getting heavier for her to carry anyway. By the way, the kittens actually look little cute cats now (as opposed to the skinny, pink rats they looked like, when they were just born) and have become very naughty and active!!!
Coming back to the night cream, I started using this Iraya one in January when the weather was cooler here in Bangalore and also when I was done with the combo of Just Herbs Facial Serum and Af'fair Night Cream. Let us now get on with the rest of the review...
Product Description of Iraya Nourishing Lotus Night Cream
Ingredients of Iraya Nourishing Lotus Night Cream
I appreciate the fact that Iraya has listed out all the ingredients and not just the key ones. The impressive list contains mainly natural stuff except for Phenoxyethanol which is a synthetic preservative. But it is still a better option than products stuffed with all kinds of chemicals.

My Experience with Iraya Nourishing Lotus Night Cream
True to its claims, this is indeed a night cream for dry skin. It is pale-beige in color, with a nutty scent. The texture is rich and thick, ideal for dry skin or in winters.

If used in more quantity, it does tend to feel a bit heavy and greasy on the face immediately after application. But the good news is that only a very small amount is needed for each time, for well-moisturized skin. Less amount also ensures better spreading and absorption. Plus it also makes the product an economical and affordable option.
Iraya Nourishing Lotus Night Cream Texture |
As already mentioned, it has mostly natural ingredients. The company has disclosed the full ingredient list which is great.
Coming to the effects, it is a nice night cream option for dry skin or for winters. Its rich texture delivers the right dose of moisturization that dry skin craves for. So the company's nourishment claims are true.

Overall Impression of Iraya Nourishing Lotus Night Cream
If all you want is a rich moisturizer for your dry skin or for the coming winter, then this one is a nice, economical and affordable option in the market. But if you are looking for specific benefits from your night cream, this may not suit your need.
