Frequently Asked Questions
-
A cold cream is a rich, emollient cream, traditionally an oil-and-water blend, used to deeply moisturise dry skin and to gently remove makeup and grime, leaving a soft, cool feel as it melts into the skin. It is the classic winter face cream.
- Intensive moisture for dry, tight, winter skin.
- A gentle, melting makeup remover.
- A soothing massage cream for the face.
-
The name comes from the cool sensation it leaves as the water in it evaporates from the skin, not from any need to refrigerate it. The recipe is ancient, an emulsion of oils or waxes with water, and that gentle cooling-as-it-absorbs feel gave the cream its lasting name. Ayurveda's own rich, ghee- and oil-based face unguents share the same soothing, nourishing spirit for dry and weather-stressed skin.
-
Cold cream is best for dry, normal, and mature skin; oily and acne-prone skin usually finds it too heavy and occlusive, which can leave the skin feeling greasy or congested. If your skin runs oily, a light lotion, gel, or aloe-based moisturiser serves you far better. Reserve cold cream for genuinely dry patches, harsh winter weather, or as an occasional makeup-melting cleanse rather than an everyday all-over moisturiser.
-
Massage a small amount over dry skin, let it dissolve the makeup, then wipe and rinse clean.
- Scoop a little cream and warm it between fingertips.
- Massage in circles over the face, including eye makeup gently.
- Wipe away with a soft, damp cloth or cotton.
- Follow with a light water-based cleanse so no residue lingers.
This melting method is kinder than rubbing at makeup with harsh removers.
-
Cold cream shines at night and in winter, when skin is most receptive and most in need of rich moisture. Smooth a thin layer over a clean face before bed and let it nourish while you sleep; in cold, dry months use it as a daytime shield against wind and chill too. In humid summers, switch to something lighter. Dry, mature skin may enjoy it year-round, used sparingly.
-
Choose by how dry your skin is and what season it is: cold cream is the heavier, more occlusive option for very dry skin, night use, and winter, while a regular moisturiser or lotion is lighter, more breathable, and better for daytime and warmer weather. Many people use both, a fast-absorbing moisturiser by day and cold cream as a night treatment or in deep winter. Match the richness to the need.
-
Yes, cold cream's slip and richness make it lovely for a gentle facial massage, which Ayurveda values for easing tension, supporting circulation, and giving the face a relaxed, rested look. Use a small amount and work upward and outward with light fingertip strokes for a few minutes before bed. It turns moisturising into a soothing nightly ritual. Remove any heavy excess afterwards so pores are not left clogged.
