Oriflame Essentials Fairness Cream (SPF 8)
What are the skin care benefits?
This is a part of Oriflame's 'Skin Lightening Complex' which includes a lotion, toner and cleanser. Its formulated to be a face cream that brightens with Mullberry extract as the key lightening agent. It is well packaged and boasts of vitamins C, B3 (Niacinimide), B5 and B6 in addition to a cocktail of moisturizers. The likely benefits include skin protection with free-radical fighting antioxidants, anti-aging benefits, skin replenishing and nourishment.
Any concerns?
Yes. The sun protection factor is stated and this is a positive. However, it offers grossly insufficient protection (SPF 8) where as the expected minimum is SPF 30. This product is likely to provide skin lightening benefits only if used exclusively at night (Oriflame brochure recommends morning application).
My rating?
6/10
The lack of sufficient sun protection is a drawback for what would have been an excellent product.
