Fabulous Finds : OXY Powder Lotion

Thursday, January 23, 2014

Assalamualaikum and hello! 

I hope my fellow readers are all in good health and happy mood :) I have been very busy with internship placement like applying here and there, nervously waiting for the replies, and also going for interviews. Phew, I was told by a senior not to stress too much on internship but being a nerdy perfectionist, I just can't help feeling insecure about it >.< It is nerve-wrecking you know, and the zits kept on popping making me more stressed =_='' I really should learn how to keep calm and chillax, hehe! Anyone has ideas how to keep calm and chillax? Tell me tell me!

Okay as you can see from the title of this post, I decided to make a new series called Fabulous Finds. I know it sounds like the first beauty box subscription in Malaysia, please don't sue me for non-originality but I just love the phrase! Please don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to copy anybody and please tell me if I am violating any copyrights and I'll surely change it! In my series of Fabulous Finds, I will be mentioning a brief intro and probably some simple review on whatever I found interesting and helpful, regardless the topic/item/services. I hope I will be consistent and persistent enough to keep my site lively apart from beauty reviews :) 

Now I'm very excited to tell you about OXY Powder Lotion that I am currently using as a toner. I won this product from Tammy's giveaway along with a handful of Mentholatom products. FYI, I have been battling with a very nasty breakout that none of my blemish care products can cure since one month and half back (T_T) it is very devastating to see my skin condition, particularly on the forehead being invaded by pimples. Maybe the blemish care products I used are not strong enough to banish them, or my skin is too congested to absorb the solutions, I don't know =_='' anybody wanna sponsor me some excellent acne treatments? *tak malu me XD*
Back to the main topic! OXY Powder Lotion claims to prevent blemishes, have oil control power and unclog pores. I have been using them for about 3 weeks, and what I can say is that :
  • it helps controlling my oily skin (control sebum production? is that the right term?)
  • my skin stays matte longer than before I started using it (without makeup on, indoors)
  • can't really say it prevent blemishes but frequent use proved that it controls the size of my pimples
  • acne/pimple marks became less prominent (but not fully disappear) with frequent use
There's another phenomenon I encountered when using it. I wiped the cotton pad soaked with OXY Powder Lotion on my nose and guess what? I found some tiny black residues on the cotton pad! Are those blackheads? Yes, I am certain they are. Only 2-3 blackheads (I can't believe I counted them XD) but it is something, for me :) Other effects I felt upon using OXY Powder Lotion is that it gives cooling sensation upon application (menthol is among the ingredients) and it doesn't make my skin feel tight.

So, I think that's all for now. I'll be making an in-depth review about this product, lets hope I'll have more to tell you in the next post ^_^

Tell me, have you ever used this product? Or, do you have anything similar to suggest? 
thanks for dropping by ^_^

    1. it is not stated on the product but it happens to me. but sekali wipe on my nose nampak la 2-3 blackheads tertanggal, not more than that. must wipe with slight pressure or else nothing comes off.

  11. Sy da guna oxy acne wash + lotion powder since 2009 & I can't stop it! It is really good product. My skin is full of pimples n scars since skola lg (since 2000) & mcm2 product sy guna but seems hopeless, sehinggalah 1 hari ni (2009) sy trnampak this product at guardian & try gune.& most of my friends yg da lama xjumpa sy, really shocked bila melihat perubahan kulit sy. But its takes a long time jugakla utk repair my skin. sy guna st ives apricot scrub as to reduce scars tp once a week. Only 3 thing: oxy acne wash, powder lotion & apricot scrub.

  12. Sy da guna oxy acne wash + lotion powder since 2009 & I can't stop it! It is really good product. My skin is full of pimples yg kasar2 & jenis mkn dalam, n scars since skola lg (since 2000) & mcm2 product sy guna but seems hopeless, sehinggalah 1 hari ni (2009) sy trnampak this product at guardian & try gune. Nonstop. & now, most of my friends yg da lama xjumpa sy, really shocked bila melihat perubahan kulit sy yg skrg dh clear dr parut2 lama. Siyes muka sy skrg dh ssh nk naik pimples melainkan kalau time period je tu pun yg kecik2 & sehari dua dh hilang. But its takes a long time jugakla utk repair my skin. Beside, dulu sy juga guna st ives apricot scrub as to reduce scars tp once a week. But now, 2 bnda wajib: oxy acne wash, & powder lotion =)

    1. wow, thanks for sharing your wonderful journey! memang lama kan nak pulihkan kulit lepas kena jerawat invasion, saya pun lama gak ni tak elok lagi, cuma dah kurang sikit la dari dulu. saya x pernah consistently guna oxy acne wash lagi, maybe i should try sebab ada dapat 1 tube :) powder lotion dah nak habis, i should restock. apricot scrub dulu pernah guna tapi x jadi apa pun, sadis lak rasa. hehe

    3. oxy powder lotion ni mmg terbaik.. sebelum ni dah belambak product sy try xde yg sesuai , 1st day guna oxy dah lebih dari 2 kali sy guna, ade kesan sampingan x kalau guna oxy lebih dari 2 kali sehari?

      Delete
    4. hmm, i think takde masalah kot sebab i myself pun guna toner setiap kali lepas cuci muka. kalau 2 kali cuci, 2 kali toner. paling banyak pun 3 kali la sehari i pakai, takde masalah pun kat my skin :)

    1. So far, I have been using almost 3 bottles and there are no side effects to my skin :) as for sensitive skin, i dont know the real answer as skincare usage is very personal and it needs individual testing.

  16. Hi dear :) Nak tnye, lepas pki toner ni dia ade sticky residue tak? Sbb certain toner dia buat kulit nampak shiny. Sye tak suke cmtu hehe

    1. Hi there :) takde sticky residue. toner ni lepas pakai dia kering matte and kulit rasa sejuk. dia tak melekit or shiny.

      Delete
    2. Ohh i see. Ok thank you. Btw, awk pki moisturizer ape? Do you have any recommendation utk moisturizer yg sesuai for acne-prone and oily skin? :D

      Delete
    3. i use many different moisturizers, tak pernah kekal 1 brand je, hehe. during the day i use L'Occitane Angelica Hydra Vital Gel, and at night before sleep I use Egyptian Magic Cream. i have the same skin type as yours maybe, but i cant use moisturizers for oily/acne-prone skin as they are not moisturizing enough for my skin. so, i really dont know what to recommend but I have tried The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Lotion and it's good. I have it reviewed, check out my post here http://www.archereverdeen.com/2014/06/the-body-shop-tea-tree-skin-clearing.html
