    What the gurus are saying

    This moisturizer strikes a balance between hydration and lightweight feel, making it a solid pick for normal to dry skin especially during warmer months when heavier creams feel uncomfortable. Ceramides are fundamental to skin barrier health, and gurus point out this formula delivers them at a price point that won't strain your budget. It earns praise as an accessible way to strengthen your skin's natural moisture barrier.

    "It's got glycerin which is your humectant, then babassu which is your anti-inflammatory, then it's got petrolatum which is your occlusive and I love petrolatum. A lot of people are against petrolatum for the wrong reasons, they don't fully understand the science of petrolatum but it's very good for our skin. It's got a variety of ceramides which is normal. This is a safe product and I would definitely recommend it."

    "If you use the Minimalist Ceramide Moisturizer combined with the Minimalist serum, you will get a lot more peptides, you will get a lot more ceramides in general, you will get everything without fragrance, without irritation, and you'll not break a bank. I love it."

    Best Indian Skincare Products I Under 500 RS I Best Skincare for Indian Skin
    "This is my absolute favorite moisturizer, which is fabulous for all skin types including oily skin types, but is even better in a graphic anti-aging routine, and it is kind of affordable. I actually started using it sometime last year, this is my second tube. I love using it on my retinol nights, or anytime my skin needs a little extra love and TLC. That is when I switch to the ceramide moisturizer. I actually love putting it on my hands, my nails, my body, and this is pretty much all in one. I highly highly recommend it. It is slightly above the 500 mark, but like I said, when it's on sale you will get it for under 500. Get a few tubes of this for your pigmentation routine, anti-aging routine. This will fit right in."

    "This one's also fragrance free so it's got some interesting ingredients, it's got some amino acids, vitamin E, oat kernel so we'll play around with some of those."
    Yay
    "Minimalist is an Indian brand that I have recently come across. This particular brand has ceramides at 0.3 percent. There are five types of ceramides in here: NP, NS, EOP, AS, and AP, so it's a mix of the hydrophobic and the hydrophilic. It retails for $7.20 or so. It also has madecassoside which is the active ingredient in centella asiatica, which is extremely soothing. So if you have a lot of redness and you're trying to also just calm your skin, this one is a nice one to add, maybe on top of the Glow Recipe. It's nice, it's kind of like lightweight but it is luxurious and silky. It has a little bit though of a medicinal kind of smell which doesn't really bother me but some people may be bothered by it."
