The day cream comes in a pump packaging with a lock and a plastic transparent cap. The night cream comes in a flat tub/jar.

The day cream is baby pink in colour and the night cream is like an off white. They have a very faint smell but nothing too bothering or over powering.

The day cream is slightly thick but blends in well. It’s matte and not at all greasy. It also offers 12 Hour full spectrum UV protection, it works well under makeup too.

The night cream is much lighter and not at all greasy. 

The initial few days you start using this kit, you might see a little redness or irritation, but it settles in 2 days and it works fine 3rd day onwards as the skin adjusts to it. There would be dry patches and skin peeling at certain places the next morning, it is only renewing the skin.

They do recommend doing a patch test before you start using it though, so do a patch test for both the day and night cream and wait 12-24 hours before starting to use all over the face.

Now I know I do not have that much pigmentation, but I do have few acne marks, dark circles and open pores which it also claims to work on.

I broke out in Jan, got two big pimples and it left behind ugly marks right on the centre of my cheeks and it’s been more than 4 months. Once I get any pigmentation or mark on my skin, it literally takes months to go. Even when I get tanned! I saw difference in my acne scars in the first week itself of using this kit!

Although they claim 14 to 28 days for 30 to 60% difference, you will notice immediate difference in the first week. There are very few brands and skin care products that actually deliver something they claim in the first week itself.

If you have acne scars, melasma, pigmentation issues, I definitely suggest giving the Melblok Advanced Home Kit a try! It definitely works. Although you can buy only the day cream or night cream, it works better together.

I would give this kit a 4/5
