Oxylife Natural Radiance 5 Crème Bleach Review

Hi guys,

Summers are at it’s peak right now, as it’s May, the hottest month in India. And we all face a lot of skin problems in summers. Let’s talk a bit about that..

Skin problems we face in summers

The scorching summer heat, dust, pollution, stress and our lifestyle impact the oxygen levels in our skin. That brings along a lot of skin issues like

  • Dull Skin
  • Uneven Skin tone
  • Dead Skin Cells
  • Sun Tan
  • Dark Spots

Today I am reviewing the new Oxylife Natural Radiance 5 Crème Bleach. I am not someone who bleaches regularly, I was a little wary of bleaching and used to do it occasionally. I met Dr. Rashmi Shetty at an event and asked her about bleaching, if it is bad for the skin, and to my surprise, she said not at all. She said you just need to add moisture and hydration to the skin, if you take care of it, then bleaching does no harm.

So I am quite confident about bleaching now. I have used the Oxylife bleach previously, but not this new variant and I thought of giving this a try.

Claims and Features of Oxylife Natural Radiance Creme Bleach: Gone are those days when bleaching caused a row of sirens blazing in your head. With Oxy Life Natural Radiance 5 Crème Bleach, your skin will feel pampered like a queen.

  • Enriched with active oxygen and post bleach skin radiance serum, here’s a bleach wonder that will make your life easy
  • Helps in eliminating dark spots
  • Helps even skin tone and remove sun tan
  • Helps repair dull skin and cleanses dead skin cells
  • Suitable for sensitive skin

Oxylife Natural Radiance 5 Crème Bleach has patented German Technology – Oxysphere, which enables Pure Oxygen molecules to be penetrated inside the skin, giving it pure boost of Oxygen, leaving it naturally radiant.

It is also enriched with Vitamin E and Glycerin to help condition, brighten and nourish the skin and help solve 5 skin problems to give a naturally radiant looking skin.

MRP: Rs.35/- for 9g (one time use), Rs.80/- for 27g (3 uses)

Benefits of Bleaching

Bleaching helps add oxygen to the skin, making it brighter and helps in evening out skin tone and fading acne spots, etc. It also helps remove dead skin cells and repair dull skin, making it look more vivid and glowing. If you are targeting to eliminate acne scars and spots, you should do it regularly. Bleach can be used every 21 days.

How to use:

Oxylife is widely used in salons, and anytime I happen to go and ask them which bleach do they use, majorly it’s always Oxylife.

It comes with the creme bleach, powder activator, spatula, post bleach serum and an instructions manual. The creme bleach and powder activator is to be mixed in the ratio of 7:1. If you are not sure of the measurements, you can buy the one time use pack and mix both in the quantity given.

I have the 3 time use pack with me, and if you follow me on Snapchat, you must have already seen me using this.

You can mix the creme and powder in the dish that comes in the creme tub. Mix it well till the powder dissolves.

Steps of application:

  • Remove all makeup with a makeup remover and wash your face.
  • Pat dry with a tissue/paper towel.
  • Apply the bleach first on the Y zone i.e. the neckline, jaw and chin
  • Then on the the T zone i.e. the forehead, upper lip and nose
  • And in the last 5 minutes on the C zone i.e. the cheeks
  • Avoid eyes, lips, eyebrows completely. Keep it on for 10 minutes if you have deep skin, 15 minutes for wheatish skin and a little bit longer if you have fair skin.

I kept it for 10-15 minutes and washed it with normal water. I saw an immediate difference on my skin! Skin was more even toned and clear looking. The tan was all gone, and there was a fresh glow to the face.

It also works on dark spots, but with regular use, once every 21 days.

Few Pointers:

  • A patch test is recommended for first-time users.
  • Cleanse the skin well and pat dry, before use.
  • Creme Bleach and the activator powder should be used in the ratio of 7:1, Mix the crème bleach and powder activator for 2 minutes with the spatula provided till powder activator completely dissolves.
  • Apply the mixture on the area to be bleached.
  • Avoid application on eyebrows and around the eyes.
  • Wash off the application with water and Apply the post-bleach serum.
  • Bleach should be used once in every 21 days
  • Do not use soap/face wash for 5 hours after bleach.
  • Avoid going into sunlight immediately.

Why Oxylife Natural Radiance 5 Creme Bleach

It comes with the post bleach skin radiance serum that is very moisturizing. I can feel the glycerin in the serum and it hydrated the skin well. I do not use anything else on my face for about 12-15 hours and avoid going out. I would recommend bleaching in the evening, so that you can skip direct exposure to sunlight.

I love the fact that this is ammonia free. Whenever you bleach, go for ammonia free bleach only. My eyes get irritated and water a lot during bleach, and I was surprised that this did not irritate my eyes at all.

It fights all skin problems that come along with sun exposure, stress and pollution and gives a healthy looking radiant and glowing skin! Skin gets more oxygen, and it repairs dull skin and helps in fading acne scars/spots.

It comes in different sizes,  the one time use pack is perfect for travel too.

Overall, I am really happy with the results. It does what it claims, and I highly recommend trying this out.

Dabur Active Blood Purifier Review

By Archana

Hi all,

Today’s review is on a slightly different product, not the regular skincare and haircare stuff. Its a health supplement which helps in giving clear and glowing skin. Dabur is a trusted brand when it comes to health and personal care products. And this new product by them claims for “a pimple free skin with natural glow” in just 7 days! Naturally, I was intrigued by this claim and bought the product blindly. Read on to know whether Dabur Active Blood Purifier satisfies its claims or not.

Products claims: Dabur Active Blood Purifier purifies blood to give you pimple free skin with natural glow. Its natural formulation works from inside to purify blood and attacks bacteria so that the blood gets purified and there is improvement in pimples or other skin ailments.

• It promises start of action within 7 days

• Prevents recurrence of pimples

• Pimple free skin with natural glow

• Goodness of Honey for excellent taste

• Safe & effective

Price and quantity: Rs.95 for 200ml (Buy HERE for Rs.80)

Key Ingredients:

Manjistha: It is beneficial for skin health. It acts as a rejuvenator and has inflammatory and analgesic properties.

Khadira: Known for its blood purification properties. The name Khadira literally translates to the one that destroys disease and brings stability to the body.

Shveta Sariva, Nimba, Madhusnuhi, Haridra, Guduchi and Madhu.

Directions to use: (Adults) 2 tablespoonful (10ml) twice daily or as directed by the physician.

Packaging:

The syrup comes in a glass bottle with a metal screw lid. The bottle is housed in an outer carton which details all about the product. I wish there was a measuring cap with it so that we can measure 10ml. The packaging comes in 2 sizes – 100ml and 200ml.

Texture and fragrance:

The syrup is dark brown in color and resembles a cough syrup. It has a herbal fragrance mixed with honey which is soothing to the senses.

My experience:

I started drinking this syrup twice daily – once in the morning and once in the evening. I drank it before having breakfast or dinner on an empty stomach for more effective results. The taste is little herbal and little sweet due to the presence of honey. It tastes very much like the Himalaya cough syrup. Unlike other health supplements which I had to force down my throat, I actually liked this taste and am glad that they have added honey. As without honey, am sure it will taste horrible. At the time I started drinking this, I was suffering from heavy acne, dryness and pigmentation issue. Which was why I bought this in the first place. I was waiting for 7 days as mentioned. But I couldn’t notice any effect at all. I mean no effect, nothing and nothing at all. I waited 10 days. Still no results. I was totally disappointed. I thought just drinking Patanjali Amla Juice would be more effective than this as I have done in the past. But Patanjali Amla Juice has a very bitter taste and I had to force myself to drink it everyday.

After 10 days, I gave up hope and was simply drinking to finish the bottle. By the end of the month, I could see my pimples clearing up. Maybe you can argue the pimples cleared up on its own and its not the effect of the product. But unlike usual times, this time the pimples didn’t leave behind any marks or scars. And I could also see a nice healthy glow in my skin. Similar to the effect I got with Patanjali Amla Juice. Also, I used to face regular acidity and gastric problems. But after a month of drinking Dabur Active Blood Purifier, they reduced. In my opinion the product works, but it takes more time and is slower than similar products. But it tastes better.

Pros:

* Nice sweet taste due to the presence of honey.

* Easy to drink.

* With regular use, gives natural glowing skin.

* Pimples are cleared without leaving behind any marks.

* Reduces acidity and gastric problems.

* Impressive ingredients list.

* Affordable.

Cons:

* Takes time to show results.

Rating: 4.5/5

Verdict: Overall, Dabur Active Blood Purifier is a good health supplement for clear and glowing skin. And also for general health and wellbeing. Unlike other health supplements, it tastes good due to addition of honey. It takes time to show results but is worth the wait.

New Dabur Amla Hair Oil Review

What the Company claims: The new Amla hair oil bottle comes up with a new tamper proof flip top, which locks 100% nourishment and enables easy flow of oil in comparison to earlier bottle with a removable cap. Help controls the quantity and ease of use.

Along with the above, Amla gets Sonakshi Sinha on board along with Priyanka Chopra.

More details here (Also get a chance to win a free sample): http://bit.ly/1BaiQnK

MRP: Rs.42/- for 90ml (plus 20% extra currently-108ml)

As I mentioned in the previous post, I have not been oiling my hair much from the last one year or so and does the need some nourishment as it has also turned drier.

Tamper proof flip cap

I got to try this new Dabur Amla Hair Oil. I like the new packaging and the flip cap which shuts tight, does not spill and dispenses only the desired quantity. It has that typical amla oil smell, but does not bother me much and a light green tint.

With the change of weather and water, my scalp is super itchy these days. I really needed something to soothe the scalp and reduce the itchiness and flakiness. It did exactly that and the scalp feels so much better.

Its not very sticky and heavy and does not give the chip chip feel. I did not notice longer or thicker hair as such, coz I anyways have a good length of hair and it grows quickly and also coz the time period is still too less to conclude that. Stronger yes, also coz of less irritation to the scalp and less dandruff issues in winters, if oiled regularly.

But one needs to use it continuously to see results. Amla also helps people with premature greying of hair. Those who use amla oil regularly from a young age still have rich,dark hair in their old age. (Have seen quite a few examples)

I would definitely recommend giving it a try.

Rating: 3.75/5

MRP: Rs.60/- for 100ml, Rs.110/- for 200ml

I have been using it for around a month now (oil once a week or so). Let’s start with the packaging..I like how it is easy and convenient flip cap..and no spilling,etc.

Its quite light weight in texture..and as claimed non sticky..even after using a good enough qty, hair never felt too sticky or oily.

Has a strong sweet smell..for those of who prefer their oils unscented, its not for you.

It was not difficult to wash it off..and it all came off nicely.

I do see some changes in hair fall and strength of hair..but it also gives a lot of volume (which I am not a fan of..I only prefer volume at my crown area..and not in the density of hair). Also did not notice much of smoothness or shine.

Pros:

1. Convenient packaging.

2. Cost effective

3. Easily available.

4. Benefits of olive oil, hibiscus, bhringraj, aloe vera and almond protein (Vitamin E)

5. Gives volume and density to hair.

6. Hair is stronger..less hairfall.

Cons:

1. No smoothness or shine.

2. Contains mineral oil.

Overall, I would say its perfect for people who have thin hair..or suffer from a lot of hairfall or have done straightening,etc..coz this will help in controlling hairfall and give volume and density. (coz of bhringraj and hibiscus too). But if you are someone who already has a lot of volume, you can skip this.

Rating:

Quality: 3.75/5
Value for money: 4/5
Availability: 4/5

Overall Rating: 3.75/5

Would I buy it again: No..not for my hair type..but I would still be going back to it occasionally..especially if hairfall problem increases.
