My View:
This moisturizer comes in a frosted glass jar with 50ml product in it. It has a sorbet type light formulation and comes in a light pink colour which I love.
I apply it on wet face and it gives an immediate cooling sensation. Absorbs quickly, makes the skin soft and doesn't leave any oily film on face.
They claim (as written on bottle) for a 48 hour moisturizing effect which isn't much true. But yes by applying on a wet face compared to dry face, it's moisturizing effect lasts for more hours (approx 10 hours)
Best thing is that it has never caused me any break out, alhamdulillah.
Hope you all are well, inshaAllah.

Best for use in summers as I have oily skin. But I don't use this in winters as my skin gets super dry and I use a more intense moisturizing lotion which I will review in coming days inshaAllah!
Yes it is an expensive product especially when you have to get it in Pakistan from their outlet or from pages on facebook but for me it's worth the money (although I am still looking for a cheaper dupe of it). The Body shop UK has sale most of the time of the year so it's better to purchase from there either directly or via a facebook page.
My Rating:
4/5
How many ml:
50 ml
Price:
Rs.3000/- above from TBS Pakistan outlets
(Different pages on facebook are selling at different prices but definitely below 3k)
Pkr prices vary with pound rate
Body shop UK: £14
From where to get it:
Lots of facebook pages can get you this on preorders, inbox them to inquire, all of them have amazing dealing and deal with original stuff from UK:
Stay tuned for more!
