4.7 average· 21 reviews on this pageComplete the routine
Essential Night Cream puts almond oil and beeswax at the centre of an overnight moisturiser for skin that feels dry, rough or tired by bedtime. Ginseng, tulsi, rose, sandalwood and ginger support, with mixed fruit extracts and vitamin E acetate, in a rich cream meant to be the last step of the night.
FOR SKIN THAT FEELS DRY, ROUGH OR TIRED BY THE END OF THE DAY
Skin loses water through the night, and a dry room or a hot shower before bed speeds that up. A cream rich enough to sit on the skin for hours slows the loss; almond oil and beeswax do that work here, and the botanicals give it character.
Beeswax forms a soft, breathable layer that slows water loss through the night, so the hydration you apply at bedtime is still there in the morning.
Sweet almond oil is a classic emollient, known for leaving skin feeling supple rather than greasy. It is the first thing you notice on application.
Rose, sandalwood and tulsi give the cream its character. Each is known for a soothing, settling feel on skin and a scent that suits the end of the day.
Ginseng and ginger are traditionally used for an invigorating, warming feel. This page describes the ingredients' reputation, not a measured result on this jar.
Mixed fruit extracts and vitamin E acetate are included for their antioxidant reputation. The cream is formulated with them; it does not claim an anti-ageing result.
It is a cream, not a gel. A pea-sized amount warmed between the fingertips covers the face; if it feels heavy, you have used more than you need.
TWO ANCHORS · FIVE BOTANICALS IN SUPPORT
Almond oil and beeswax are the formula anchors. Ginseng, tulsi, rose, sandalwood and ginger support, with mixed fruit extracts and vitamin E acetate. Open each card for what the ingredient is known for, without pretending that a plant extract and a measured result on this jar are the same thing.
Sweet almond oil is rich in oleic and linoleic fatty acids, the same families of lipids the skin barrier uses. It is known for a soft, supple finish and is one of the most used emollients in Indian skincare. This card describes the ingredient, not a measured result on this product.
Beeswax is the structural anchor of the cream: it thickens the base and leaves a soft, breathable layer on skin that slows water loss. It is known for that occlusive, protective feel. The claim is about the ingredient, not a result on the finished product.
Ginseng root is prized in East Asian skincare for a revitalising reputation; ginsenosides are the compounds behind that name. This card describes the ingredient, not a measured result on this product.
Tulsi, holy basil, is a cornerstone of Indian herbal care, known for a clean, calming feel on skin and a soft herbal scent. As with every card here, the claim is about the ingredient, not a result on the finished product.
Rose petal extract is known for a soothing, softening feel and a gentle scent. In this cream it is part of the finish rather than the moisturising base.
Chandan, sandalwood, has a long place in Indian skincare for a cooling, calming feel and a warm woody scent. This card describes the ingredient, not a measured result on this product.
Ginger root is traditionally used for a warming, invigorating feel. In this cream it sits in the supporting cast behind the oils and waxes. The claim is about the ingredient, not a result on the finished product.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A REJUVENATION CLAIM AND A NIGHT ROUTINE
Night is when skin is not fighting sun, wind or make-up, so it is the easiest time to keep it hydrated. A cream with an oil and a wax in it stays put for hours, which is exactly what a night cream is for.
Essential Night Cream does that job and no more. Almond oil softens, beeswax holds the moisture in, and the botanicals give the ritual a scent worth keeping. The honest payoff is skin that feels softer and looks fresher in the morning, not a change to what is underneath.
THE LAST STEP OF THE NIGHT
A pea-sized amount is enough for the face; warm it between your fingertips first so it spreads thinly. Follow the outer box for directions, as the jar label says, and patch test before first use.
Wash the face, apply any toner or serum you use, and let them absorb. Night cream goes on last.
Take a pea-sized amount, warm it between your fingertips and press it over face and neck, working outwards.
Do not rinse. In the morning cleanse as usual and follow with a daytime cream with SPF. Follow the outer box for directions and patch test before first use.

THE QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK BEFORE THEIR FIRST JAR
It is a rich cream with almond oil and beeswax, so it is meant to sit on the skin. A pea-sized amount warmed between the fingertips spreads thinly; if it feels heavy you have used too much.
It is sold and directed as a night cream and has no SPF. Use a daytime cream with sun protection in the morning.
It comes in 30 ml and 50 ml jars. Availability is shown live on this page; the formula is the same in both.
The jar label lists a cream base including glycerin, stearic acid, cetyl alcohol, a Dow Corning silicone and the preservatives sodium benzoate and DMDM hydantoin, alongside almond oil and mixed fruit oil.
It is made for skin that feels dry, rough or tired. Oily skin may prefer a lighter gel at night, or a very thin layer on dry patches only. Patch test before first use.
The jar label points to the carton for usage instructions and indication, so keep the carton with the jar.
