REVIEW: Gluta-C Intense Whitening Body Lotion

Hi guys, Today I'll be sharing with you one of Ardent's Skin Care products which is their Whitening Lotion. 

What does it features?

• GLYCOSTECH: a quick and effective penetration of the skin using patented French Technology. 

BENEFITS:

*EXTREME WHITENING ACTION

A whitening complex agent with Glutathione, Arbutin and Root extracts that whitens intensively while  Glutathione and Vitamin C are anti-oxidants which prevent skin damage due to environmental stress. Together they improve skin tone and texture to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

*ADVANCED SKIN NOURISHMENT

Vitamin C and Shea Butter deeply moisturize to help reduce the signs of premature aging like skin dullness, dryness and age spots.

Light, non-greasy formula quickly absorbs into the skin and leaves no sticky residue.

*EFFECTIVE PROTECTION FROM THE SUN 

Protects the skin 25x longer from harmful UV rays that cause skin aging and sunburn.

Gluta-C Intense Whitening Lotion. 

Glutathione+Arbutin+Vitamin C+ SPF25 , I can say that this lotion is a great deal!  Top that with the Shea Butter content, I'm pretty much sure this won't dry my skin! **fingers crossed** I wanted to give it a try first so I grabbed the small bottle which is 125ml.

 I'm not really a fan of whitening products; I find it very drying on my skin. Since I'm blessed with a fair skin **thank god!**, I never to bother use any SPF lotions eversince :p but since I'm taking  summer classes this summer and I have to do the walking from one building to another everyday, I believe I had to get me one of this because I'm already 3 tones darker than my usual tone 0.0 

Here's how it looks:

*Sorry for the poor quality pictures:( 

PACKAGING:

Rating: (3/5)

Packaging is really simple. It comes in a white bottle with orange details. The manufacturing date is printed in small black letters right at the bottom of the bottle(I didn't bother to take pictures of it because it's really small *_* ). But no Expiry Date! (minus points for that) !

 here are some swatches of this product:

TEXTURE: 

Rating: (5/5)

The texture is very light. It quickly absorbs into my skin. No heavy or sticky feeling and it doesn't leave a white cast on my skin. I highly recommend this to those people who sweats a lot just like me. 

SMELL:  

Rating: (5/5)

It has a citrus smell when you apply it :) I love the smell of this lotion! Great for people who are not fond in using perfumes like me :p

WHITENING:  

Rating: (4/5)

Yes, It did whiten my skin! I'm almost back to my natural color! Yeeey! Although, It really takes time. but you can see visible results with regular use. teehee;) I've been using this for almost 3 weeks now.

MOISTURIZING:

PRICE:

Rating: (3.5/5)

It's a bit pricey. I got mine for P167.00- 125ml

300ml bottle costs more than P300.00+

Should I repurchase?

Yes! I probably would. Eventhough it's a bit pricey, I'm getting what I paid for! I'm also in love with the scent and the moisturizing effects! I'm planning to purchase some of their products too just like the soap, toner, face serum etc; sooo excited!

Myra Vita White Face Lotion Review

Hi guys! Today I'll be sharing my favorite face moisturizer.I didn't hear a lot of good reviews and claims about this product the reason why I was so hesitant in buying this the first place before; but hey, it might be worth a try. 

Myra Vita White Face lotion

It comes in a cute white tube and grey cap/lid. I got mine in a 45ml. It is a whitening facial moisturizer with SPF15. I actually ordered this one from Natasha since I'm a dealer, i got this for a much lower price. I've tried almost all the face moisturizers in the market before. I used to change my face cream/moisturizers every week and believe me, it wasn't a good thing for my skin. Many times, my skin feels dry, as in super dry. Other times, it feels really oily. This is the very first time I feel in love with a moisturizer,it works well on my skin and it makes my skin glow healthy! Also, I think the whitening and SPF content really does help because I didn't notice any discoloration on my face.

Texture:

The texture of the lotion is not thick, it's very light-weight on skin. It's not sticky as well as it dries fast on my face.

Smell:

I can't really explain the smell of the product but if you ever tried using the other MyraE facial moisturizer (the red one), I think it has the same smell. The good thing about this product is that the smell is not overpowering  , so I think it'll work for those of you who doesn't want fragrance on their face moisturizers.

Coverage:

Well, it doesn't provide much coverage since it's a face lotion, not a cream. It only makes the skin glow.

Pros:

• Not sticky
• Dries Fast
• No overpowering smell
• Shows Results
• Doesn't make my skin oily
• has SPF and whitening effects

Cons:

• For me, I think NON :D 

Should I repurchase? 

• Yes, definitely! 

Where can I buy this?

• Nearby Drug Stores
• Natasha dealers
