Hello Glow Whitening Plus Peel & Reveal – Review


I am all for organic chemical-free skin care products!

Whitening Plus Peel & Reveal
A transforming all natural peel to lift away damaged upper layers leaving a brighter, luminous complexion.

Pour a generous teaspoon full of powder onto wet hands, rub together to make a paste and apply on moistened face. Massage thoroughly until product is only slightly visible. Leave until dry (about 5 min). Then, over the sink, rub the skin until product starts flaking off. Rub off as much as possible and rinse the remainder with cool water. Pat dry.

My thoughts
If you’ve read my previous reviews on Hello Glow products, you would know that I've loved using Hello Glow Whitening Plus Facial Polish. Since this one is citrus based, I would not suggest using it frequently particularly if you have sensitive skin as it might sting/irritate a bit. I personally like using it once a week or twice a month.

The result is quite similar to Whitening Plus Facial Polish. It does a nice job sloughing off dead skin on my face. My skin feels baby soft and appears glowy. Because it’s an organic product, expecting a dramatic result – like perhaps lifting a tan in a single application – would be just silly. Natural skin care products take their own sweet time to perform. In case you’re wondering if it could whiten or turn you into snow white, it certainly would not. It’s simply going to remove the dull dead layer of your skin revealing the new one underneath. The only immediate result you get with it is a radiant and healthy-looking skin.

My only gripe so far is the packaging. The powder usually clumps together and the blocks the product from getting out. And when you try too hard, you only end up spilling lumps of extra product on your hand. This really frustrates me!

I guess some of you might freak out finding out how tiny it looks when you hold the bottle in your hand. But looks can be deceiving. The 50mg should last roughly four months if you use it once weekly.

I think it's nice but it still doesn't topple Whitening Plus Facial Polish for me. You're probably going to like this if you have combination/oily skin type.

You might like it if…
  • You have dull skin and expect a healthy glow
  • It sloughs away dead skin effectively
  • It lifts your tan off with regular use
  • You have a combination/oily skin.
You might not like it if…
  • You have dry/normal skin type
  • You have sensitive skin
  • It slightly stings upon application
  • You think the packaging is poorly made.
My rating
3.5/5

Hello Glow Whitening Plus Peel & Reveal is priced at PKR 1000 and can be purchased online through Just4girls.pk, BeautyArena.pk and Glamshop.pk (a Facebook store)

Hello Glow Moonlight Dust & Drops – Review


I have been using these two products for past several weeks and I’ve got to say that like other Hello Glow products, these does not cease to impress.

Moonlight Dust
A gloriously creamy facial polish to soothe and refresh stressed and congested skin.
100% natural combination of Chamomile Powder, Organic Wheat Flour, Milk Powder, Potato Starch, Rice Powder, Olive and Chamomile Oil.

Pour some powder onto wet hands. Rub together and apply all over moistened face. Massage gently for 30 seconds and rinse off with cool water. Pat dry.

Moonlight Drops
A perfecting potion of floral waters and honey to rejuvenate your complexion while you sleep. 100% natural combination of Honey water, Rose water, Chamomile water, Orange Blossom water and Glycerine.

After cleansing, pour a few drops onto the palm of your hand and apply all over slightly damp skin. Allow to dry naturally. Use two or three times a week for optimum results.

My thoughts
Basically, this range is suitable to be applied at night before bed since that’s when your skin needs nourishing and what’s better than to pamper your skin with au natural skin care sans any side effects.

Let me begin with the cleanser first. Firstly, the scent is not as pleasing as the Rose Dust or Whitening Plus Facial Polish. Personally, I would’ve liked something pleasant to calm my senses and relieve stress while I cleanse. Having said that, I absolutely enjoy massaging the rich paste on to my face – it’s quite relaxing. My skin looks clean and feels smooth, yes, but I was hoping that it would add some glow to my face or maybe give me a polished look like Whitening Plus Facial Polish or the Rose Dust does so I am a bit let down. On the bright side, I think this product is most fitting for sensitive skin type as it does not cause abrasion and feels gentle against the skin.

After cleansing, I like to apply Moonlight Drops which is in fact a hydrating toner. It comes in a little 50 ml bottle. The quantity is enough to last you a month – maybe more. All you've got to do is pour 3-4 drops on your palm and rub your hands together. Gently stroke the product from your hands on to your face and let it dry. I’ve got combination skin which tends to get oily in the T-zone but I haven’t broken out with it once. As a matter of fact, I find it to be the best toner I’ve tried so far. Three weeks ago, I got my entire face threaded. I am bound to have awful bumpy breakouts after that. This time, it was different. See when you get your face waxed/threaded, your pores happen to enlarge. Open pores get clogged by dirt and impurities quite easily. I’ve tried icing but that’s just a temporary solution. Nothing soothes my skin and tightens my pores. The Moonlight Drops worked for me like magic. It really is soothing and moisturizing. Not that my skin was completely zit-free but I didn’t break out as badly as I normally do. I noticed a few pimples popping here and there but that was it. I am happy to have come across such a product that works for me.

Overall, I think Moonlight Dust is only so-so. On the other hand, Moonlight Drops has won me over completely.
