Forest Essentials Light Day Lotion Indian Rose & Marigold Review: Hello ladies, I hope you all are enjoying the winter season. Although we love the chilly winter breeze our skin is definitely not friends with winters. We need to pamper it in this season more then any other time of the year. Even during winters I stay away from sticky creams and heavy moisturisers. I picked up Forest Essentials Light Day Lotion Indian Rose and Marigold just because I read the word “light” on it. Lets get into the details.

In Detail Forest Essentials Light Day Lotion Indian Rose & Marigold Review, Swatches and My Experience
Forest Essentials Indian Rose & Marigold Light Day Lotion comes in a small plastic bottle with a pump dispenser and golden lid. The bottle is opaque so you don’t get to see how much product is remaining inside. The packaging looks luxurious and is travel friendly. For this price, the quantity is very less though.
It smells really nice just like real roses. I am obsessing over rosy smelling products these days and this one does not disappoint me at that. The fragrance is very refreshing and smells divine. After application the smell lingers for a while and one feels really good.
The consistency of the lotion is just the way I like it. I can tolerate heavy duty moisturizers on my body but my face has to stay away from anything sticky. I picked this up as it is light weight and is neither very runny nor very thick. Just a pea sized amount is appropriate for entire face.
After application it quickly gets absorbed without making you feel sticky or greasy. You don’t have to wait for it to sink into your skin. It will vanish in seconds after hydrating your skin. It contains SPF 25 which is another benefit but it is not enough if you are going to be out in the sun for long. So, make sure to dab your regular sunscreen for extra protection from the harsh sun rays.
Overall, it’s a light lotion with natural ingredients that is quickly absorbed in the skin. It is not greasy and hydrates your skin well. But overall I would say for this price the quantity is too less and you can get products at much cheaper price offering the same benefits. I am not going to purchase it again and try something new. For now that’s all.See you next time in another review.
