Vaishaly Anti-Ageing Night Cream

Background info

If you're a regular reader of my blog you will know I am a huge fan of Vaishaly Skincare. This is my and many others all time favourite skin care brand. As you know by now, I take my skincare very seriously. If you are looking for the best then look no further than Vaishaly.

Vaishaly skin care is created by superfacialist Vaishaly Patel who is famous for her facials and other treatments such as threading in her London based clinic. Vaishaly skin care is based on natural and organic ingredients. It's a British brand and manufactured in England. Vaishaly's little range contains everything you need to achieve perfect skin from the comfort of your own home. The four products cleanse, replenish, rejuvenate and protect your skin.

Vaishaly's skincare philosophy has always been refreshingly simple: "You don't need a lot of different products to achieve beautiful skin." (Quote:Vaishaly.com).

Vaishaly skin care does not contain the following ingredients:

-Synthetic colours
-Artificial fragrance
-Chemical sunscreens
-Petroleum derivatives, such as mineral oil
-Sodium Laureth Sulphates
-Parabens
-GM ingredients
-Animal ingredients

Vaishaly gives the skin I want in just minutes a day. Vaishaly's products make my skin glow. It's comes as no surprise to me that Vaishaly has so many celebrity clientele such as Elle MacPherson, Nigella Lawson, Sophie Dahl and Gwyneth Paltrow.
Vaishaly skincare is pure and simple yet very effective. In just two steps you're done. This is fantastic for work mornings when I have so little time.

I love all of Vaishaly's products. The formulas are perfect for my skin. The brand covers all skin types too.

The Vaishaly Day Moisturiser SPF15 (dry/sensitive) is one of my favourites and I have used it for many years and I never want to be with out it. Although I have been using the brand since 2006, this Night Cream is more of a recent discovery that I wish I had discovered sooner. Read on to see why this is the most perfect natural and organic night cream available on the market.

Product description

"Like many of my clients, I find that a lot of night creams feel too heavy and just seem to sit on the surface,’ says Vaishaly, who has formulated her own night treatment to be light-as-air, and sink in fast. ‘This one offers the perfect solution for all skintypes: immediately absorbed, it rehydrates and replenishes all complexions beautifully but weightlessly.’

Key active ingredients in this super-high-performance, organically based night cream include regenerating, skin-strengthening macadamia and soybean oils and protective vitamin E, combined with aloe vera and Vaishaly’s arnica, ginkgo and calendula complex, to combat irritation or redness.

Key Description:

A super high performance night cream, suitable for all skin types
Absorbs quickly into the skin
Leaves no grease or shine
It is very light in texture

Essential Oils:

• Lavender
• Geranium
• Rose Absolute
• Chamomile

Packaging

The packaging of this Night Cream is by far the best. It's presented in an attractive airless jar which protects the cream from light and air thus protecting the precious active ingredients. There is also no contamination to the cream due to the pump action dispenser. The packaging with its sophisticated look appeals to both men and women.

The above picture shows some of the cream that has been dispensed by pressing down the plate dispenser with two fingers to deliver the right dose of cream for the face, neck and eye area.

Application and texture

After cleansing use 2-3 pumps in the evening. This can be applied on top of the Vaishaly Night Nourisher.

This Night Cream is very light in texture. I am a great believer that you should let your skin breathe at night and this Night Cream allows just that.

Results and review

This is without a doubt my holy grail Night Cream. It's beautiful, luxurious and light weight. This Night Cream contains an amazing array of state of the art ingredients. Infused with antioxidants, peptides and active skin repairing ingredients.

Here are some of the amazing ingredients this super luxury night cream contains:

Aloe Vera is comprised of many active ingredients and has anti inflammatory, antioxidant, and antibacterial qualities. Aloe Vera is super soothing and helps to repair, heal and boosts collagen production within the skin. Aloe Vera has the ability to penetrate layers of the skin four times faster than water and allows other anti ageing ingredients to penetrate deeper and act more efficiently. Aloe Vera also enhances elasticity in the skin and gives the skin a more youthful appearance.
Coconut Oil has emollient properties that are excellent for all skin types. Coconut oil penetrates the skin deeply to moisturise and prevent dryness and flaking of the skin.
Safflower Seed Oil has emollient and antioxidant properties.
Jojoba Oil is repairing and regenerative and particularly helpful in making dry skin look and feel better.    It also strengthens the skin's barrier function.
Shea Butter is an emollient and is a rich source of antioxidants. It nourishes, soothes, repairs and softens the skin.
Glycerin helps to absorb water and has the ability to attract water from the environment and from the lower layers of the dermis thus increasing the amount of water in the surface layers of the skin. Glycerin is a skin identical ingredient and it is a substance found naturally in skin. It provides a barrier and prevents dryness or scaling. It is also excellent for helping skin heal and restores normal barrier function.
Phospholipids are essential to the function of cell membranes by providing a stable surrounding structure.
Soybean Sterols are excellent ingredients that boosts collagen production. They also help to protect, reduce free radical damage and enviornmental stress on skin. Soybean Sterols also help to reverse earlier damage caused by free radicals. Soybean Sterols also have the ability to reduce or prevent oxidative damage that destroys and depletes the skin’s function and structure while also preventing some of the degenerative effects in skin caused by sun exposure.
Macadamia Seed Oil is an superb emollient for dry skin and also contains phytonutrients that aid skin repair.
Oat Seed Extract has anti irritant and anti inflammatory properties.
Beech tree bud extract  is a powerful antioxidant and can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Palmitoyl Oligopeptide is a super powerful anti ageing ingredient as it is cell communicating and can help skin cells function in a more normal and healthier way. Palmitoyl oligopeptide stimulates collagen production and encourage the production of intercellular matrix substances such as hyaluronic acids. Palmitoyl oligopeptide also helps to improve skin elasticity and softens wrinkles and lines.

Arnica Montana Flower Extract reduces inflammation and helps aids skin repair. Arnica also enhances the circulation of blood which helps reduce the appearance of puffiness.
Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract has been used for thousands of years both orally and topically and is renowned for fighting free radicals and reducing the signs of ageing. Ginkgo is also an anti inflammatory ingredient and can help to reduce the swelling of the capillaries.
Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract is an amazing ingredient for sensitive skin and is anti inflammatory, antiseptic, healing, calming and soothing.
Geranium has potent antioxidant properties and also balances the skin as it helps to regulate sebum production.

Rose Oil is a very complex mixture of over 300 compounds, some of which are yet to be identified. Some of the compounds of Rose oil have powerful antioxidant and cell regenerating properties. Rose helps to protect cells against photo damage and prevents capillary damage.
Chamomile has potent antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Chamomile is renown for having an anti inflammatory action resulting in calmer and clearer skin.
Tocopherol also known as Vitamin E have so many benefits for the skin. Vitamin E is the antioxidant superstar as it helps to protect cells against environmental pollution. It helps to prevent the signs of premature ageing as it protects fibroblasts in the skin which are vital for collagen production.

This Night Cream is extremely versatile and can be incorporated into any routine but can also be used on its own. It does however, work extremely well with the Vaishaly Night Nourisher, both working together to rejuvenate the skin whilst you sleep.

I love the way that each Vaishaly product comes with instructions on Vaishaly's massage system. By performing the Vaishaly massage technique you create better absorption of the product as well as adding an instant boost of radiance to the skin. Performing this massage technique once or twice a day transforms the skin as it increases blood flow and feeds oxygen to the skin.

The fragrance of this night cream is just like the Cleansing Balm and Day Moisturiser. It is absolutely exquisite and euphoric, it is so relaxing and addictive making it great for the senses! It helps to calm the mind and gives you a little piece of heaven. 

This is a great multipurpose product that can be used on the face, neck and eye area which is fantastic when you don't have much time on your hands.  Also this makes for a great travel companion as the packaging is small and does not leak.

With this Night Cream there is no need to use a separate eye cream as this can be used around the eye area which is another great beneficial advantage saving you time and money.

This Night Cream can be used by all skin types, men and women. This is great for me as a man to use as a post shave treatment. When I shave in the evening the cream eliminates irritation and redness. The cream provides a pleasant cooling and soothing effect and does not sting the skin. So whether you are a man or woman this cream will ease irritation, redness and act as an anti ageing preventative. The most amazing benefits of the Night Cream is it acts on existing signs of ageing and helps to diminish fine lines and wrinkles. 

I do from time to time have trouble sleeping but as this is like sleep in a jar all traces of fatigue on my skin are erased.  Every morning upon waking my skin looks rested, hydrated, clearer, glowing and not a trace of redness. This night cream truly beautifies the skin resulting in a flawless complexion. This is the best night cream you can get.

In conclusion this has the perfect ingredients, provides the perfect results and provides the perfect packaging. What more could you ask for?
