Nykaa Shampoo and Face Wash Offers August 2026: Rs. 66 to Rs. 3,953

Forty-four per cent, the largest cut across all 50 listings, on a lipstick with 4.1 million ratings behind it. That combination is worth pausing on, because it is the opposite of what this shelf usually offers: the deepest discounts here normally sit on supermarket haircare, and the best evidence normally sits on products that never discount. Maybelline is a mass-market brand sold through every channel in India, which is exactly why it can be cut this hard - the volume is already there. Anything sold this widely is also priced competitively everywhere else, so the 44 per cent is a real number rather than a recovered margin.

• Price: Rs. 419 (stated MRP Rs. 749)
• Key detail: 4.1 million ratings - the second-largest sample of the 50 listings read
• Discount: 44% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 330
• Rating: 4.4 from 4,117,311 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Deepest badge in the read
• Buying logic: The best-evidenced deep discount on the page

This is what the mass-market tier looks like at full stretch: 40 per cent off a Rs. 1,370 bottle, backed by 536,708 ratings at 4.4. Sixteen listings in our read come from this tier - L'Oréal Paris, TRESemmé, Himalaya, Dove, Love Beauty & Planet, Maybelline, Simple - and their median discount is 35 per cent, against 10 per cent for the imported clinical brands three chapters down. Nothing about the formulations explains that gap. Keratin and argan oil are the marketing on the front of the bottle; the discount is a function of how many other shops sell the same bottle.

• Price: Rs. 822 (stated MRP Rs. 1,370)
• Key detail: 40% off - five points above the 35% median for the 16 mass-market listings
• Discount: 40% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 548
• Rating: 4.4 from 536,708 Nykaa ratings
• Role: The mass-market median, in shampoo
• Buying logic: A large, deeply-cut bottle from a brand sold everywhere

Rs. 359, a 4.5 average and 153,649 votes. On most shelves this series reads, a product with that much evidence behind it would be one of the least discounted things on the page; here it is at the top of the discount table because Himalaya is a mass-market Indian brand sold in every pharmacy and supermarket in the country. Compare it with the Cetaphil cleanser later on this page - a comparable score, a comparable job, and an 11 per cent badge instead of 40. The neem and turmeric framing is traditional positioning; what you can verify is the price, the score and the sample.

• Price: Rs. 359 (stated MRP Rs. 599)
• Key detail: 4.5 from 153,649 ratings - the joint-highest score in the read
• Discount: 40% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 240
• Rating: 4.5 from 153,649 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Cheapest face wash here
• Buying logic: The best-evidenced cheap cleanser on the shelf

Four and a quarter million ratings, the largest number attached to anything in this read, on a Rs. 197 lipstick that the retailer makes itself. Nykaa's own labels are the most discounted tier on this shelf - five listings, median 40 per cent - which makes sense once you notice who sets both numbers: when the retailer owns the brand, the MRP and the selling price are decided in the same building. That is not a criticism, it is a reason the discount is reliable rather than negotiated. At Rs. 197 with a 4.3 average, this is the cheapest well-evidenced lipstick on the page.

• Price: Rs. 197 (stated MRP Rs. 329)
• Key detail: 4,281,485 ratings - the largest sample of all 50 listings read
• Discount: 40% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 132
• Rating: 4.3 from 4,281,485 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Largest sample on the page
• Buying logic: The most-rated product here, at two hundred rupees

Hyaluronic acid is the ingredient that made the imported clinical tier famous, and here it is on a supermarket shampoo at 40 per cent off. That is the whole tension of this shelf in one bottle: the ingredient story has travelled down the price ladder while the discount ladder has stayed exactly where it was. What hyaluronic acid does in a rinse-off shampoo, as opposed to a leave-on serum, is not something the listing quantifies and not something we tested. The 53,972 ratings at 4.4 are a strong sample by any standard other than this page's, where two listings carry over four million.

• Price: Rs. 789 (stated MRP Rs. 1,315)
• Key detail: 40% off a Rs. 1,315 bottle - Rs. 526 in money
• Discount: 40% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 526
• Rating: 4.4 from 53,972 Nykaa ratings
• Role: The hyaluronic claim
• Buying logic: If you want the ingredient at mass-market money

Thirty-five per cent is the median discount for the 16 mass-market listings in our read, and this bottle sits on it precisely. What separates it from its neighbours is the evidence: 1,747 ratings against 536,708 for the TRESemmé and 153,649 for the Himalaya. That is still a real sample - a 4.5 average on 1,747 votes means something - but it is a newer product, and bond-repair peptide formulas are the current wave in mass-market haircare rather than a settled category. The score is the highest in the chapter; the certainty behind it is the lowest.

• Price: Rs. 662 (stated MRP Rs. 1,019)
• Key detail: 1,747 ratings - the smallest sample among the mass-market listings here
• Discount: 35% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 357
• Rating: 4.5 from 1,747 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Thinnest sample in the chapter
• Buying logic: The newest formula in the tier, with the shortest track record

Anti-hair-fall is the most-made and least-verifiable claim in Indian haircare, and no listing on this shelf - including this one - publishes a study you could check. What is checkable is that 34,946 people have rated it 4.3, that it costs Rs. 619, and that the 38 per cent badge is normal for its tier rather than a special event. Bhringraja and palasha are ayurvedic positioning. Buy it as a well-liked, widely-sold shampoo at a normal mass-market discount, and treat the hair-fall claim as marketing until somebody publishes otherwise.

• Price: Rs. 619 (stated MRP Rs. 999)
• Key detail: Rs. 619 with 34,946 ratings - the cheapest large-format mass shampoo here
• Discount: 38% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 380
• Rating: 4.3 from 34,946 Nykaa ratings
• Role: The Rs. 999 bottle
• Buying logic: A popular ayurvedic-positioned shampoo at tier-normal money

Nykaa's own lipsticks carry more ratings than any external brand on this shelf, which is what happens when a retailer promotes its own label on its own storefront for years. Rs. 449 at 40 per cent off, 2.5 million votes, 4.3 average. The thing to keep in view is that both numbers in that discount belong to the same company: Nykaa set the Rs. 749 MRP and Nykaa set the Rs. 449 price. That makes the percentage internally consistent rather than a claim about anyone else's pricing - which, oddly, makes it more trustworthy than most badges this series reads, not less.

• Price: Rs. 449 (stated MRP Rs. 749)
• Key detail: 2.5 million ratings on a house-label lipstick - more than any outside brand here
• Discount: 40% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 300
• Rating: 4.3 from 2,516,170 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Second-largest sample here
• Buying logic: The house label's flagship, with an enormous sample

Rs. 239 buys the cheapest liquid lipstick in the read, and 1,199,120 people have rated it 4.2 - the lowest average among Nykaa's own five listings, and still a score most products would take. Sitting the three house lipsticks together shows a real ladder: Rs. 197 at 4.3, Rs. 239 at 4.2, Rs. 449 at 4.3, all at 40 per cent off. The prices move, the discount does not, because the tier's discount is a policy rather than a response to anything. Transferproof and long-lasting are claims we did not test and could not from a listing.

• Price: Rs. 239 (stated MRP Rs. 399)
• Key detail: Rs. 239 with 1.2 million ratings - the cheapest liquid lipstick on the page
• Discount: 40% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 160
• Rating: 4.2 from 1,199,120 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Cheapest liquid lipstick here
• Buying logic: The cheapest liquid formula with a million votes behind it

Twenty per cent, against 40 on the same company's lipsticks. Nykaa discounts its own colour cosmetics twice as hard as its own face wash, which is a useful hint about where the margin sits in beauty generally: colour is high-margin and heavily promoted, functional skincare is not. At Rs. 223 with 879,582 ratings at 4.3, this is the best-evidenced cheap salicylic-acid cleanser on the page - the same active as the Rs. 1,125 CeraVe and the Rs. 2,204 Bioderma further down, at a fraction of the money and with far more votes.

• Price: Rs. 223 (stated MRP Rs. 279)
• Key detail: 20% off - half the house label's usual badge, on its skincare rather than colour
• Discount: 20% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 56
• Rating: 4.3 from 879,582 Nykaa ratings
• Role: The house label's smaller badge
• Buying logic: A salicylic cleanser at a fifth of the imported price

Every other Nykaa-owned listing in this read carries 40 or 20 per cent and hundreds of thousands of votes; this one carries 15 per cent and 6,762. It is also the most expensive of the five at Rs. 509. Read together with its siblings, it suggests a newer or slower-selling line rather than a different pricing philosophy - the tier's median is still 40 per cent. Six thousand ratings at 4.3 is a perfectly good sample in absolute terms and a thin one on a page where the top two listings carry four million each.

• Price: Rs. 509 (stated MRP Rs. 599)
• Key detail: 15% off with 6,762 ratings - the house label's shallowest badge and thinnest sample
• Discount: 15% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 90
• Rating: 4.3 from 6,762 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Smallest sample of the house five
• Buying logic: Only if the bullet format specifically is what you want

Here is the shelf's clearest side-by-side. This combo has 173,725 ratings at 4.4 and is discounted 15 per cent. The TRESemmé shampoo in chapter one has 536,708 ratings at 4.4 and is discounted 40 per cent. Same category, same score, similar evidence, and the badge differs by 25 points - because salon-channel brands protect their pricing to keep salons viable, and supermarket brands do not have that problem. The seven salon listings in our read have a median discount of 15 per cent. If you buy professional haircare, this is the ceiling of what you should expect off it.

• Price: Rs. 1,525 (stated MRP Rs. 1,794)
• Key detail: 173,725 ratings on a salon-channel product - by far the best-evidenced of its tier
• Discount: 15% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 269
• Rating: 4.4 from 173,725 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Dearest haircare in the chapter
• Buying logic: The best-evidenced salon product on the page

Three thousand nine hundred and fifty-three rupees, the most expensive thing in the read and sixty times the price of the cheapest listing on the same page. The badge is 15 per cent, exactly the salon median, which is the point: at this tier the discount does not scale with the price, it stays where the channel puts it. Rs. 697 off is real money and it is also the same percentage the Rs. 347 Matrix shampoo gets. Bonding treatments are the most technical claim in haircare and 2,511 ratings at 4.4 is a decent sample for a product this expensive.

• Price: Rs. 3,953 (stated MRP Rs. 4,650)
• Key detail: Rs. 3,953 - the highest price of the 50 listings, at 60 times the cheapest
• Discount: 15% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 697
• Rating: 4.4 from 2,511 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Most expensive listing here
• Buying logic: If you already know you want bonding treatment

Rs. 716 for the shampoo alone at 10 per cent off, against Rs. 1,525 for the shampoo-and-mask combo at 15 per cent. Buying the pair is the better arithmetic if you were going to use both, which is the whole design of a combo listing. Forty-four thousand ratings at 4.4 puts this among the better-evidenced products on the page. Ten per cent is the floor of the salon tier and the same number the imported clinical brands sit on, which is a useful hint that both tiers are protecting a channel rather than responding to demand.

• Price: Rs. 716 (stated MRP Rs. 795)
• Key detail: 10% off - the smallest discount in the salon tier, on a single bottle
• Discount: 10% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 79
• Rating: 4.4 from 43,947 Nykaa ratings
• Role: The salon floor
• Buying logic: The single bottle, if the mask is not wanted

This is the listing that complicates the neat story: a salon-channel brand at Rs. 347, which undercuts every mass-market shampoo in chapter one despite carrying a 10 per cent badge against their 35 to 40. The tier sets the discount, not the price - and here the price happens to be low. Eighty thousand ratings at 4.4 is a strong sample. If your objection to professional haircare is that it costs too much, this listing is the counter-example, and it is cheaper at 10 per cent off than the TRESemmé is at 40.

• Price: Rs. 347 (stated MRP Rs. 385)
• Key detail: Rs. 347 with 80,492 ratings - salon-channel evidence at supermarket money
• Discount: 10% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 38
• Rating: 4.4 from 80,492 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Cheapest salon-channel bottle
• Buying logic: The cheapest way into professional-channel haircare

Eighty-six ratings. On a shelf where 18.2 million votes are spread across 50 listings and the median product carries tens of thousands, this one carries 86 - and its 4.1 average is the lowest score in the entire read. Both facts are worth stating plainly on a Rs. 1,280 bottle. The 20 per cent badge is the largest in the salon tier, which on this shelf usually signals a line that is not moving. None of that makes it a bad shampoo; it makes it the one product here you would be buying on the brand name rather than on evidence.

• Price: Rs. 1,280 (stated MRP Rs. 1,600)
• Key detail: 86 ratings - the smallest sample of all 50 listings, on a Rs. 1,280 bottle
• Discount: 20% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 320
• Rating: 4.1 from 86 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Thinnest sample in the read
• Buying logic: The one listing here with almost nothing behind it

This is the mirror of the Himalaya face wash in chapter one: a comparable job, a comparable 4.5 score, similar money, and a badge of 11 per cent against 40. The difference is the channel - Cetaphil is an imported clinical brand sold through pharmacies at protected pricing, and the eight listings in that tier here have a median discount of 10 per cent. Four hundred and twenty-two thousand ratings make this one of the most thoroughly evidenced products on the whole shelf. If you have been waiting for it to go on sale, this read suggests it does not.

• Price: Rs. 409 (stated MRP Rs. 459)
• Key detail: 422,713 ratings at 4.5 - the best evidence of any cleanser in the read
• Discount: 11% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 50
• Rating: 4.5 from 422,713 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Best-evidenced cleanser here
• Buying logic: Buy it on evidence; the discount is never coming

Two per cent salicylic acid with niacinamide, at Rs. 1,125 and 10 per cent off. The Nykaa anti-acne face wash earlier on this page states the same headline active at Rs. 223 and 20 per cent off, with 879,582 ratings against 4,323. We are not equipped to tell you the formulations are equivalent - concentration is one variable among many, and vehicle, pH and supporting ingredients all matter - but the price gap is five-fold and the evidence gap runs the other way. CeraVe's 4.5 on 4,323 votes is a good score on a modest sample.

• Price: Rs. 1,125 (stated MRP Rs. 1,250)
• Key detail: The same 2% salicylic acid as a Rs. 223 listing on this page, at five times the price
• Discount: 10% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 125
• Rating: 4.5 from 4,323 Nykaa ratings
• Role: The Rs. 1,125 salicylic cleanser
• Buying logic: Only if the specific formulation is what you want

Two thousand two hundred and four rupees for a face wash, ten per cent off, 14,320 ratings at 4.5. The discount is identical to the CeraVe at half the price and the Minimalist at an eighth of it, because the imported clinical tier discounts by channel policy rather than by product. What genuinely separates a Bioderma from a supermarket cleanser is formulation research and dermatological testing that the brand does and does not publish on a retail listing - so this card can tell you the price and the evidence, and not whether it is worth ten times the Himalaya.

• Price: Rs. 2,204 (stated MRP Rs. 2,449)
• Key detail: Rs. 2,204 - the most expensive cleanser here, at the imported tier's flat 10%
• Discount: 10% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 245
• Rating: 4.5 from 14,320 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Dearest cleanser in the read
• Buying logic: The pharmacy-tier option, priced accordingly

Minimalist built its business on publishing concentrations on the front of the bottle, and this is the clearest example on the shelf of what that changed: 2 per cent salicylic acid with LHA, Rs. 269, 140,595 ratings at 4.4. The imported clinical cleansers on this page carrying comparable stated actives cost Rs. 1,125 and Rs. 2,204. The discount, 10 per cent, is the same as theirs - the Indian D2C tier as a whole has a 16 per cent median, closer to the pharmacy brands than to the supermarket ones. Stated concentration is not the same as proven efficacy, and no listing here publishes a trial.

• Price: Rs. 269 (stated MRP Rs. 299)
• Key detail: 140,595 ratings on a Rs. 269 actives cleanser - the strongest evidence-per-rupee here
• Discount: 10% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 30
• Rating: 4.4 from 140,595 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Best value in the actives group
• Buying logic: Stated actives at the lowest price on the page

Two hundred and fourteen rupees is the cheapest face wash of the 19 in this read, and 43,113 people have rated it 4.3. Dot & Key sits in the Indian D2C tier whose median discount is 16 per cent, and at 14 per cent this listing is right on it. Vitamin C in a rinse-off cleanser is the weakest form of that ingredient story - it has seconds of contact time rather than hours - which is worth knowing before paying a premium for it anywhere. Here you are not paying one, which makes it an easy card to sit at the bottom of the price ladder.

• Price: Rs. 214 (stated MRP Rs. 249)
• Key detail: Rs. 214 with 43,113 ratings - the cheapest face wash in the read
• Discount: 14% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 35
• Rating: 4.3 from 43,113 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Cheapest vitamin C wash
• Buying logic: The cheapest cleanser here, with real votes behind it

Thirty per cent, against a 16 per cent median for its own tier and 10 per cent for the imported brands it competes with on ingredients. The Derma Co is the most aggressively promotional of the Indian actives brands and this listing shows it. Salicylic acid plus niacinamide at Rs. 384 with 36,765 ratings at 4.3 is a genuinely competitive position against the Rs. 1,125 CeraVe stating similar actives. What no listing on this page provides - here or in the imported chapter - is a published trial, so ingredient lists and concentrations are where the comparison has to stop.

• Price: Rs. 384 (stated MRP Rs. 549)
• Key detail: 30% off - twice the Indian D2C tier's 16% median
• Discount: 30% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 165
• Rating: 4.3 from 36,765 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Deepest badge outside the mass tier
• Buying logic: Actives at a discount the actives tier does not usually give

The cheapest thing in the read costs Rs. 66 and carries the smallest discount, 5 per cent - which is Rs. 3. There is nothing to discount: the price is already at the floor of what a cosmetic can cost, and Swiss Beauty's whole model is selling at that floor in volume. Three hundred and four thousand ratings at 4.4 make this better evidenced than most products on this page costing twenty times as much. It is the clearest demonstration on the shelf that the badge and the value are unrelated quantities.

• Price: Rs. 66 (stated MRP Rs. 69)
• Key detail: Rs. 66 with 304,814 ratings - the cheapest product and one of the best-evidenced
• Discount: 5% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 3
• Rating: 4.4 from 304,814 Nykaa ratings
• Role: Cheapest listing in the read
• Buying logic: The floor of the shelf, with a serious rating sample

One million three hundred and ninety-three thousand ratings, averaging 4.3, on a Rs. 172 lipstick. Only the two Nykaa house lipsticks and the Maybelline carry bigger samples. Set the whole page against itself for a moment: the four most-rated products in this read cost Rs. 197, Rs. 172, Rs. 419 and Rs. 449, and the most expensive listing on the page carries 2,511 votes. Evidence on this shelf concentrates at the cheap end, which is the opposite of what happens on electronics shelves, and it is the single most useful thing to know when shopping here.

• Price: Rs. 172 (stated MRP Rs. 229)
• Key detail: 1.4 million ratings at Rs. 172 - the third-largest sample in the read
• Discount: 25% off a stated MRP, which is Rs. 57
• Rating: 4.3 from 1,393,674 Nykaa ratings
• Role: The Rs. 172 lipstick
• Buying logic: Where the evidence actually lives on this shelf
