This night cream provides a solid foundation of barrier-supporting ceramides and a gentle retinoid, but its anti-aging claims would benefit from stronger finished-product evidence and clearer communication regarding its fragrance content.
₹795 • Analysed 18 July 2026
In India's warm, humid climate a lighter leave-on layer tends to wear more comfortably; how it feels can shift between air-conditioned indoors and humid outdoors. The product's MRP is consistently Rs.895 across most platforms, but Amazon India often lists it at a slightly lower price of Rs.795. Consumers can frequently find discounts on Nykaa and the brand's website, making the effective price range Rs.716-895. 1 marketing claim could draw ASCI scrutiny under India's advertising code; the ingredient list is the more reliable guide.
Independent and free. The Clean Sheet takes no money from brands to review, rank, or approve a product. This is a web evidence review, not a Clean Sheet certification. We checked the ingredient list, publicly available test reports, marketing claims, and formula logic using only public information available at the time of review.
The INCI lists Retinyl Palmitate (Retinol Ester) and multiple Ceramides (1, 2, 3, 4, 6 II) prominently, supporting the active claim. 'Youth Restoring' is a cosmetic claim.
Retinyl Palmitate is a milder retinoid known to help with signs of aging, but this is ingredient-level evidence. No finished-product clinical study for this specific claim was found publicly visible.
The product contains a blend of Ceramides (1, 2, 3, 4, 6 II) which are crucial for skin barrier function. Their presence in meaningful concentrations supports this claim through formula logic, though no finished-product test was found.
Retinoids are generally known to stimulate collagen, but Retinyl Palmitate is a weaker form. This is ingredient-level evidence; no finished-product study on this specific product's ability to boost collagen was found.
Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid are prominent humectants, and emollients like Dicaprylyl Ether and Dimethicone support hydration and nourishment. Formula logic supports this claim.
This is a safety claim. No specific non-comedogenic testing report was found publicly visible for this finished product.
The provided INCI list does not contain drying alcohols (e.g., Alcohol Denat., Ethanol), supporting this claim. Benzyl Alcohol is a preservative, not a drying alcohol.
The INCI explicitly lists 'Ifra Certified Allergen Free Fragrance'. While IFRA certification aims to reduce allergens, the product is not 'fragrance-free'. Any claim of being fragrance-free is contradicted by the INCI.
What we could confirm from public sources and the verified ingredient list.
Ingredient Safety & Toxicity
Full ingredient list retrieved and verified against INCIDecoder.
Screened against the ingredient database (17 of 35 ingredients matched); no cosmetics-prohibited ingredient found.
No ingredient with a recognised endocrine-activity concern found in the database.
No IARC-classified or formaldehyde-releasing ingredient found in the database screen.
Contains ingredient(s) commonly rated comedogenic: laminaria. May not suit very acne-prone skin.
Irritation & Allergen Risk
Declares 2 known allergen(s) (benzyl alcohol, Retinyl Palmitate (Retinol Ester)). Reactive skin should note these.
No high-sensitisation preservative (MI/MCI/formaldehyde-releaser) from our screen was found.
Brand claims dermatologist testing (claim stated; underlying report not seen).
Ingredient Transparency
The full INCI list is publicly available, not just hero ingredients.
Ingredients are listed in the descending order required by India Cosmetics Rules 2020.
Standards & Compliance
Usage warnings and directions are clear on the label.
Contains a retinoid (retinol, retinyl) - generally advised against during pregnancy. Not a general-safety issue.
Screened against a curated reference set that we are continuing to verify and expand, so “clear” means no flag from that set, not a guarantee. Not a substitute for a full toxicological or clinical assessment.
