Price: 450 INR for 60mlShelf Life: 2 years Availability: www.cosmedic .com My Expectations: Summers have started so, instead of layering my skin with Moisturizer + Sunscreen, I prefer a day cream that offers UVA + UVB protection along with moisturizing my dry skin. As the LumiDay Brightening Day Lotion SPF30+++ claims to moisturize, brighten and protect I am hoping to get an even skin tone with improved texture.
To know how effectively LumiDay can brighten up your face, read on….. Look & Feel
- Package: Comes in a light-weight plastic bottle with a well gripped cap and a pump dispenser. The dispenser is easy to use and allows us to control the quantity of the cream dispensed. So a perfectly portable package it is
- Fragrance: Has a slight medicinal fragrance which is definitely not my choice. But it’s mild and wears off in about 15 minutes.
- Texture: A liquid cream with emollient soothing nature. I love the mild cooling sensation it offers to the skin.
LumiDay Brightening Cream Effects
- Moisturization? Due to it’s emollient nature it feels a little greasy on skin so, you just need a very little amount. Also I noticed that when used with a good toner this Day Cream made my skin smooth without greasiness
Swatch Blending
- Whitish Cast? While blending you can notice a slight whitish cast but once the cream is completely blended the cast vanishes.
Swatch Blended Fully
- Sun Protection? Yes very much. On a few days I had to go out in the mid-afternoon sun and I noticed that this cream didn’t let the sun show it’s adverse effects on my complexion. It offers UVB cum UVA protection so a complete sunscreen for your skin. To understand more about the UVA, UVB, SPF and PA+++ factors read my post here
- Brightening? I have tested it alone for a month and then tested it for 15 days in combination with Cosmedic Lumifast Brightening Minute Mask . I felt that this cream didn’t improve my complexion but it just protected my existing complexion.
- Makeup Base? If used on toned skin it works well as a moisturizing makeup base else, you need to set your makeup with a good mattifying powder.
Cost Efficiency: Moderately Efficient.
Final Note I can define the LumiDay Brightening Day Lotion as Daily Moisturizer plus complete Sunscreen in a single bottle. It didn’t work for me in improving the complexion but as a general day cream for dry skin I highly recommend this product. I’d suggest ladies with oily skin type to stay away from this cream as it might feel a little heavy.
