Testing The Effectiveness of Avon Naturals Lightening Papaya and Soy Milk Hand and Body Lotion in SEVEN DAYS.

Testing The Effectiveness of Avon Naturals Lightening Papaya and Soy Milk Hand and Body Lotion in SEVEN DAYS.

I'm always a fan of lightening/whitening soaps, lotion and etc. Honestly speaking, I want my skin to get lighter and whiter ever since. I tried many soaps and lotions before and many of them really works. Now, I want to publish something that proves the effectiveness of such products, and I choose the AVON Naturals Lightening Papaya and Soy Milk Hand and Body Lotion to work with.

Avon brochure has new products in almost every brochure when it comes to body lotions and shower gels from the Avon naturals range. The formulation of the product inside the bottle is the same, only the fragrance and the wrapper in which the bottle is wrapped differs. 

Quantity: Available in 250 ml and 100ml
Product Claims: Pamper your skin with this lightweight and non-greasy hand and body lotion. It absorbs quickly and leaves your skin soft supple and velvety smooth while leaving a deliciously sweet fruity floral scent. The lotion will maintain skin’s natural moisture and provide 24hrs moisturisation.
To use: Apply a generous amount all over the body particularly on exposed areas such as arms, shoulders, legs and thighs. Massage in a circular motion onto your skin until dry. Use twice daily, morning and night.
Ingredients: Aqua, glycerin, mineral oil, steraic acid, glyceryl monostearate, dimethicone, POE (100M) 6000 monostearate, phenoxyethanol, petroleum jelly, fragrance, cetyl alcohol, potassium hydroxide, methyl paraben, carbopol, neem seed extract/ sunflower seed extract/ grape seed extract, acrylates /C10 30 alk, acryl/ TR-2, papaya extract, soybean extract, disodium EDTA, hydrolyzed milk protein powder
It also contains
Papaya fruit extract known as a natural source of papain, which helps lighten and soften skin
Soybean extract: known to be rich with skin balancing nutrients
Hydrolyzed milk protein: known for its skin conditioning properties
My Experience with the Product in SEVEN DAYS.
This product comes in the form of lotion that is white in color, comes in a sturdy bottle and with a flip top cap. The consistency of the product is just perfect. Upon application, it is instantly soaked by the skin, leaving it smooth and healthy. The fragrance of this lotion is very pleasant and smells really fresh.
Using the Product on the First to the Seventh Day




My initial assessment of the product upon 1st application: The lotion was easily absorbed by the skin, it is really non-greasy. Obviously, you cant still see the lightening effects but I noticed that it made my skin smoother and soft to touch. It has light consistency. I like its fragrance and it last longer that I thought it could be.
Second day until Fourth day was just normal, it feels the same way but it did a great work on the smoothing part.
Fifth day, I was little a bit amazed because I can already see the difference between my right and left arm. I can see that my skin in the left arm is lighter in color. I have observed it retains the natural moisture of the skin within 24 hours as it was claimed in the back label of the product. 
Sixth day to Seventh day, I can already assure that my skin in my left arm became whiter as you can see on the last picture posted above. The skin became more even in color. You cant trace any roughness on its texture. The product is really promising and I will definitely continue this AVON Naturals Lightening Papaya and Soy Milk, Hand and Body Lotion for daily use because I already tested its effectiveness regarding smoothing and lightening.

Myra for Whiter and Fairer Skin

            When I was in my high school years, I never aspire of having a whiter and a fairer skin as others have. Because I’ve realized, it wouldn’t be achieved, all I know is that Asian, specifically a full-blooded Filipina like me are morena or referred as dark-skinned one, that Asian skin are hard to change from dark to white. And am sure, my skin is like that.  And so, I no longer dreamed of having a white skin and decided not to try whitening lotions and soap or any dermatological and skin operations.
            But when I entered college, I am more confused with my body especially my tan skin , not because I am insecure but because I just want to prove that I can have an American Skin to let people know that Filipina can be an American by skin colors.
            Therefore, I tried different whitening lotion products, some are ineffective, others are inadequate in my skin that I suffer irritation and allergies.  Others are effective but within a month that you can see changes and some doesn’t work at all that’s why I’m so disappointed and assured to stop the experiment.
            But then here comes the new Unilab product.  Myra Vitawhite Whitening and Body Lotion
                                               
So, I continued my experiment.  It convinced me in using the product because of its specification.

            To give you a background of the product, read below:
§  Myra Vitawhite Whitening and body Lotion contains Actlight Complex which is derived from plant extracts to help reveal healthy, fairer skin all over;
§  It has SPF 15 and double skin protection that shields against UVA/UVB Rays and harmful effects of the sun;
§  Like all Myra-E lotions, it contains Vitamin E Beads that gently burst into your skin to protect and nourish it; 
§  It helps keep skin healthy, fairer and young looking and;
§  Hypoallergenic and dermatologist tested.
            I’ve been using Myra Vitawhite Whitening Hand and Body Lotion as a day lotion these past two weeks.  What I did is I applied it only to my hand (left arm) and only every 6:30 in the morning to test its effectivity.  And I was amazed, my skin color changed a little bit, became smoother and healthier.  And I have proven it, the product is really effective.
