Item Description
This is a little known Indian cream, referred to as "The Thing" in other forums. I have to agree, it's "the thing" once you use it.
WARNING: It contains peanut oil, so if you are allergic to peanuts, stay away.
Ingredients list:
Nariyal Tail (coconut oil)
Arandi Tail (castor oil)
Moongphali Tail (Peanut oil)
Neem Tail (Neem oil)
Khajur (Dates)
Pudina (Mint)
Taltar (Palm)
Parshrut Jal (Purifed water)
It reminds me a lot of the TOBS Avocado in terms of feel and performance.
It has a very mild natural scent from the ingredients, I think it would be safe to classify it as an unscented cream.
It lathers very well, it is slick and protective and leaves my face feeling smooth.
I think it competes very well with the 3T's and the price is acceptable at around $16 in the US (I am sure it is a lot cheaper in India).
The packaging is the classic tan tub we are used to from the 3T's, but Biotique went above and beyond sealing the tub: the tub is sealed on the outside and also there is a foil seal on the inside that cannot be peeled off, you need to cut it around the edge of the tub. That is a very nice touch that I have not yet seen in any of the creams in a tub I have tried.
I enjoy using creams off the beaten path, such as this Bio Palmyra, Fitjar and other great but harder to find creams.
In conclusion, if you like the performance of TOBS Avocado but do not like its scent, you should give this cream a try.
