As promised, another quick and easy on the eyes review!
Yes, once again, not picture heavy and reason was mentioned in the previous post.
Firstly, I have to say, I never ever use body products. Okay, let me rephrase that - I never use anything else on my body besides shower gel. I am only disciplined when it comes to my face; anywhere else it's a "oh well, people can't see anyway] thing. However, lately I realised that the difference in the skin tone of different parts of my body is ridiculous. The skin tone of my face and hands is pretty close but my legs are at least 4 - 5 shades darker than my hands. It's quite ridiculous when I put my hands next to my legs for comparison. Reason that this developed is because I like to wear shorts but don't like to get tan so I tend to wear long sleeves/ jackets to cover my hands and I apply sunblock on my face. Well, that leaves my legs completely unprotected! Therefore, this product cannot be more apt for me.
Vaseline Healthy White UV Lightening Even Tone Lotion
This product claims to:
- Lightens your dark skin areas to keep skin even toned.
- Vitamin B3 helps your skin achieve radiance at its healthiest condition
- Triple Sunscreens help prevent further darkening caused by the sun
- Yoghurt Serum provides moisturization and nourishment to your skin
After using it for 5 days straight, here's my verdict:
You may think that 5 days probably won't make a difference [I was also quite skeptical] but it actually did! I'm not sure if it's because the difference in my skin tone is just that huge because after 5 days, I actually do see visible lightening. Do note that this product lightens, not so much of whiten. I do realise a lot of girls tend to mix up this two properties. Most products serve to lighten your skin tone to what your skin might had been in the past but to whiten it past that is pretty hard just by using products alone. Digressing - anyhow, I do observe slight lightening but bear in mind that I've only used it for 5 days [twice a day as indicated by the directions on the bottle]. This product is also moisturizing and has light scent - once again, people who don't like scented products may want to stay clear from this. Oh yes, the formulation of the product makes it easy to apply and it feels lightweight on my skin. I will do my best to keep up this regime and hopefully my skin tone can become more even! This product retails at only SGD $6.95 for a generous 240mL bottle so I will definitely recommend you to try it as it is so economical! Besides, Vaseline is a pretty well established brand so you definitely have nothing to lose in this deal. I will rate this product a 7.5/10 as I've only used it for 5 days so far and probably will have to use it for a longer span of time to re-evaluate my rating.
