Overview
A 50 gram lightweight facial gel from Forest Essentials, made in India with aloe vera and ceramide, aimed at hydrating all skin types. It comes in a compact jar sized around 3.8 by 3.8 by 2.2 inches.
The title calls this a light hydrating gel rather than a cleanser, so despite a category ranking that lists it among facial cleansing gels, the ingredient and benefit fields point to a lightweight moisturizer layered onto the face rather than a rinse-off wash. Ceramide as an active alongside aloe vera supports the hydrating and anti-aging positioning in the listing.
