My Experience with Lakme Youth Infinity Skin Firming Day Creme SPF 15 PA++:

To start with, this cream claims to bring back your twenties’s glow and sculpt your face,I am only 21, so I can’t really comment on how it works to bring back your “scultped youthful skin,” but the sculpting tag attracted me, so I bought it. The product comes in a beautiful violet, sleek, shiny reflective packaging with a silver cap, similar to their CC cream.  The cap is sturdy and the tube is very travel friendly.  The cream itself is of medium consistency and white in color. When applied, it has extremely subtle shiny and shimmery particles to it that can’t be seen unless you are under harsh lighting that adds a temporary glow to the skin. I have combination skin that is more oily towards summers, but since we are having never-ending monsoons here in Kolkata, it is combination for quite some time.  The first day I bought it, my mom used it and said it is so oily :/ I got worried because if it is oily on her dry and mature skin, then it must be extremely greasy on me. Later, I washed my face and applied it and didn’t feel anything for around 10 minutes, but then my face started feeling greasy and I could see small sweat beads on my forehead.  I blotted my face and it felt okay, but around an hour later, I felt really greasy and I was afraid it would break me out, so I had to wash my face again :/ It definitely does not control oil nor is it oil free.  It is not for oily-combination skin girls at all, it would be perfect for dry skinned women and might be good for normal skin with a bit of blotting.  Anyway, I have used it several times since then and the longest I could bear that greasy feeling was for 8 hours because it was a really rainy and cold day.  I can’t imagine how greasy it will feel in hot summers *shakes head*

Lakme Youth Infinity Day Cream 3

I think I can use it during winters when skin feels really dry, anyway I really think this one is made for 30+ women who have dry skin.  I don’t think combination/oily skin women will like it. Coming to its claims of sculpting or bringing “‘youth’s glow,” they must be referring to the oil on your skin as ”glow” so yes, your skin definitely will glow and shine like a tubelight due to oil buildup and microshimmer in it :p but after washing my face, it looks slightly better, but that’s because of the heavy moisture content, not because of “youth glow,” similar to how a face pack works.  It does not sculpt skin or anything, but maybe my skin is not very old and I have not worn it for very long to comment on that. It didn’t break me out by the way, so that’s a pro. It has a fragrance that is very overpowering and a big turn off, it gives me a headache. It comes in 2 sizes and I am so glad I bought the smaller tube, not the huge tub, and good for people who want to try before buying.  All in all, it’s not a good purchase at all.

  1. OMG thanks Bipasha *shock* …you saved my money…I was so much wanting to get this one and the others from the same range *scared*

  2. lakme seems to be decent brand.. hw come a dud that too so expensive.. *spank*
    i rememeber i tried lakme silk naturelle foundation which was pretty good. *haan ji* need to stay away from this range then.. *nonono*

  3. You are right. This is good for 30+ women. I am using it and I quite like it. I have combination skin but Pune weather is pretty cold and rainy and so I am liking the effect on my skin. This will definitely not suit me in summers but very few creams (except probably Lacto) suit me in summers so that’s ok.

  4. I thought what a luxurious range from Lakme when i first saw this*clap* *clap* thank god i did not get it for my mom… i was very much tempted to give this to her on her birthday *headbang*
