Imperfections within my skin - Skin Confessions!


Okay,so, after reading the title you guys would have been wondering that is post will be about "me complaining about my skin" but, hi! guys,I will not be doing that infact, I am out on a hunt finding that one skincare product that does it all for me.

There are a very few people on this planet -Earth, that are blessed with healthy,glowing, acne and dark-spot free face; whereas others, including me have to work really hard to get that healthy and glowing face. Every morning and sometimes at night I spend hours and hours doing my skincare routine in-order,to avoid any dark spots or uneven skin tone and sometimes my skin goes craycray hence, I get a bi-jillion pimples on my face and what not. Sometimes, battling with my pimples my face gets distributed into different tones and then, that's the time when no whitening cream or skincare product works. Oh!and how can I forget about efforts Mr.Sun makes in-order to tan up my skin.However, I'm still finding/waiting for that one cream that does it all, reduces my dark spots, evens out my skin and of course! brightens/whitens it up.

Inorder, to study my skin and find flaws in it, I will start to ask a few questions from myself and would later answer them. If you are also in the same situation as I am -that is finding that one cream that does it all,then I would suggest you all to do this fun activity with me.

So Ladies, let's get started!

Here are the questions:
  1. What is my skin type? Is it Dry/Oily or Combination?
  2. Do I get acne or occasionally pimples?
  3. Is my skin having dark spots, at the moment?
  4. Is my face divided into different skin tones?
  5. Do I go out alot ,especially in daytime?
  6. Do I encounter air pollution on the daily bases?


Now,it's time to jot down some answers.
 Remember,to first touch your skin ,study and analyze it and then answer them.
And, here are my answers!

  1. My skin type is combination.
  2. I get pimples, occasionally.
  3. Yes, I have a few dark spots and a few blemishes,at the moment.
  4. Yes, my fore head has a completely different colour than that of my T-zone area and my neck.
  5. I am a student so, yes I encounter sunlight and air pollution,alot.

So,according to these answer, I need something that is made for people with combination skin type. Has a higher number of SPF in it and could even out my skin tone.Even could reduce or I should say vanishes the dark spots.

So, my hunt still continues!
Though, this time I have things cleared up in my head.

And, I will definitely let you guys know, till then my search continues........


Thank you! for making it to the bottom of the post :')
Hope you enjoyed!
Have a nice day ahead!

Product Review: RSL's Hdyra-White duo.



Hello Everybody!
Today, I will be reviewing my very first P.R sample ,which was sent to be by RSL. So, without any further a do, Let's jump into it.


So, Firstly, I was asked to choose my sample from the three kinds of the duo-s.Which were following:

  • Acne be gone - for acne prone skin.
  • Hydra white - skin whitening treatment.
  • RSL 7 - multivitamins treatment.


and of course, I chose Hydra-White duo, because I don't have acne and secondly, I wanted something that would brighten-up my skin.

Why I like it?
I will not say that "Why I love it?" because, this product wasn't MIND-BLOWING but, it surely was a satisfying product.The product claims that it will promote healthy glowing skin,lighten skin and will reduce dark spots. In my opinion, this product does reduces dark spots and evens out skin complexion.It is effective though, it takes alot of time while doing this , its extremely slow whilst, it claims to do all these things in just four weeks. Budget-wise they are super affordable but,both of these products do contain sulphates and parabens.



Further Details:
  • Rsl Hydra White Whitening Cream :
It comes in a plastic tube with a flip top lid that secures it,making it a travel friendly product.It's consistency is slightly thick and the colour is stark white.The smell of this cream is abit obnoxious,to be honest. This really helps me at night as my skin becomes extremely dry and stiff, it relaxes my skin and leaves my skin soft and smooth.According to my observation, it  only helps to moisturise my face but, didnot evens out my skin tone.


P.S: I use to apply it twice a day, right after the face wash.



  • Rsl Hydra White Face wash :
The packaging is almost the same except for the colour of the plastic tube. The consistency is slightly thick and the colour is milky white, same as that of the syrup in the Boston creme donut. That pretty much explains the appearance of the face wash.The smell of the face-wash was unbearable for me,at first but later I invented a way to make the scent of this face-wash bearable by mixing a bit of my Pond's face-wash with it ,every time I use to use it.It use to hardly lather and I usually use to struggle to clean it off as it took a lot of water in-order to get cleaned.


  • Pros:

  1. Travel-friendly packaging.
  2. Super affordable.
  3. Reduces dark spot.
  4. Easily available.

  • Cons:
  1. The fragrance of both of the products is a bit obnoxious.
  2. Both of them contain parabens and sulphates.
  3. Doesnot even out the skin.


RATE: 3/5




Price:
The Hydra White Whitening Cream: 150PKR
The Hydra White Face-wash: 95PKR


Both of them are available- HERE!
