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.

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.

Have you tried the Oxylife Natural Radiance 5 Crème Bleach yet?

Nature’s Essence Diamond Bleach Review, Price, Buy Online

Nature’s Essence Diamond Bleach Review, Price, Buy Online

By Archana

Hi all,

After trying some of Nature’s Essence products and satisfied with it, I got their diamond bleach. In olden days, we just had regular bleaches. Now they have different variants like gold bleach, diamond bleach, fruit bleach, etc. I had already tried VLCC Diamond Bleach and loved it. So thought of giving Nature’s Essence Diamond Bleach a try. Read on to know my experience with it.

Products claims: Nature’s Diamond Bleach Cream is formulated to give natural skin glow, improved texture and fairer complexion. Its active ingredients not only lighten the skin but also nourish it with goodness of nature. It blends facial hair, cleanses pores, removes impurities and fades facial blemishes from deep within makes your skin fairer & outshines as never before. It generates and allows enough penetration of oxygen into your skin and gives you diamond like radiance.

Key Ingredients:

Cream: Hydrogen Peroxide, Sunflower oil, Almond oil

Activator: Ammonium Bicarbonate

Price and quantity: Rs.65 for 43g (35g cream bleach, 8g activator powder) (BUY HERE)

Directions to use: Mix 2 spatulas of bleach cream and 2 pinches of activator powder together. Make sure the ratio is not less than 4(cream):1(activator). Keep stirring bleach cream and activator for 2 mins, till powder dissolves completely. Apply the mixture on desired areas. Avoid eye brows and area around eyes. Keep the mixture on skin for atleast 10-15 mins. Use normal water to clean.

Packaging: It comes in a white cardboard box, inside which there are two small plastic tubs. One contains the bleach cream and other contains the activator. The directions of use are all mentioned clearly in the outer packaging. There is no pre or post-bleach creams provided. A small plastic spatula is also provided. However, all these plastic spatulas, I usually find them very light and of less quality. So I end up using my own spoons. I wish they could give better quality spatulas with these creams.

Texture and fragrance: The cream is white in color with a mild fragrance. The activator powder smells strong as usual due to presence of ammonium bicarbonate. Reminds me of my chemistry lab sessions 😉

My experience:

I mixed the cream and activator powder in ratio 4:1. After mixing it thoroughly, I applied it on my face. There were some remaining and I applied on my foot as well to brighten it up :D. I waited for 10 minutes. And then washed it off. I didn’t face any irritation or breakouts. Nature’s Essence products I realize are generally milder than the other ones. After washing, my face felt clean and brighter. My foot which had lot of tan also was brightened to some extent. It also helped to lighten facial hair. One important thing to note while using bleaches is, always use it in the ratio mentioned and don’t exceed the mentioned time. Else you might end up with very lightened hair which doesn’t suit your skin tone and looks more visible.

Pros:

* Gentle bleaching cream.

* Makes face clean and bright.

* Reduces tan to an extent.

* Affordable.

Cons:

* Pre or post bleach cream not provided.

Rating: 4.2/5

Verdict: Nature’s Essence Diamond Bleach is an affordable and gentle bleaching option available. Compared to bleaches from other brands, this suits even sensitive skin and doesn’t cause any irritation or redness. So those who are interested in bleaching can give this a try.
