I have known the Oxy brand by Mentholatum since I was a little girl. That time when the acne started erupting, Oxy creams was what I really depended on. I can’t believe after so many years later, I am back to using this brand. However, Oxy is now no longer just for acne skin, their range of products had certainly grown and when I was sent this Whitening Oil Control Face Wash, I was really surprised at the difference I felt when using this.
I know, I know, I’m no longer a teen, and apparently, Oxy is the popular choice of face wash for Malaysian teens. I am testing it on behalf of all teens in Malaysia, coz my skin is really still like teens’, still oily and sometimes with acne. This latest facial wash is made to brighten, smoothen and control shine, something that all teens need.
This new innovation comes with an advance new formulation and technology which helps to achieve: (1) Fair, Brighter Skin (2) Controls Shine (3) minimize appearance of Pores (4) Deeply Cleanses (5) 72-hour Moisturization just by washing your face
Why will your teens love Oxy Whitening Oil Control Wash?
1) Giga Whiteâ„¢ Technology – There’s this new thing called Giga White Technology, a new whitening active ingredient consisting of 7 types of Swiss Alpine plants ie Mallow, Lady’s Mantle, Balm Mint, Peppermint, Speedwell Herb, Yarrow and Primula. This Giga Whiteâ„¢ provides amazing whitening and brightening effect for a fairer and smoother skin at the same time helps to prevent the melanin formation on our skin.
2) Herbal Microbeads – As can be seen from the pic above, there are tiny microbeads encapsulating 9 whitening and oil control herbal extracts which are released upon application on skin to boost the whitening and oil control efficacy. As I wash my face in circular motion, I can literally feel the microbeads burst upon my skin.
3) REGU® SEB – Consisting of 2 types of Oil Control herbal extract ie Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil and Serenoa Serrulata Fruit Extract, helps to regulate sebum production to reduce excess oil, prevent skin irritation, resulting in an improved skin appearance. I find this helpful with my sebum which is an issue in my TZone area.
4) Pentavitin – Pentavitin is a Belgian Wheat Active Ingredient that provides instant hydration to the skin for as long as 72 hours.You know how some acne targetting products make your skin dry and tight, even peeling after use due to the high acid content? Well, this does not happen with the facial wash, I was pleasantly surprised that my skin felt hydrated, moisturised and soft after the washing my face with this.
The Oxy Whitening Oil-Control Wash is also made to penetrate deep into the layers of the skin to effectively remove impurities, dirt and oil trapped within pores while at the same time refining the skin and minimizing the appearance of pores for a more refined and radiant appearance.
The OXY Whitening Oil Control Wash is available at all leading pharmacies and supermarkets since October 2015. It is available in two pack sizes i.e 50g at RM8.50 and 100g at RM13.90.
