The
Wonders Of Cream Bleach
Bleaching helps maintain
skin health by removing suntan and performs a 3-dimensional
task.First, it camouflages facial hair to match skin
colour.Secondly, it thouroughly cleanses the skin,
and lastly, it is safe and gives instant fairness
in just about 15 minutes.Of all the bleaches, cream
bleach is the latest and most beneficial to the skin.It
does not cause a burning sensation nor does it contain
any chlorine.It contains hydrogen peroxide in cream
form with ammonium salt as the activator either in
the form of cream or powder, thus making application
easy and painless.
Bleaching with such
creams has a unique gas-flushing action due to release
of carbon dioxide and ammonia.It cleanses slogged
pores and removes dirt from the skin, making it breathe
a lot easier.Hydrogen peroxide is a strong antiseptic
that kills bacteria and other pimple-causing micro-organisms.In
fact, a derivative of hydrogen peroxide is the most
popular anti-pimple ingredient.Bleaching has another
significant benefit-it results in the release of active
oxygen to the skin.Beauticians across the world recognise
oxygen therapy as the latest skin care technique.
Cream Bleach produces instant results
and makes the user appear fairer within 15 minutes.Cream
bleaches are so easy to use that women can safely
use them at home.Today bleaching has become a regular
beauty treatment for men too and is no longer restricted
to the fairer sex.

How To Use Cream Bleach
Safely And Effectively?
1.Always test for sensitivity before applying, even
if tested before.
2.Never apply afetr a hot bath.
3.Use the mixture within 30 minutes of preparation;
otherwise the effectiveness will wear off.
4.Do not apply on cuts or abrasions, moles, skin disorders
or make-up, as they may cause a burning sensation
or irritation.Wait at least 24 hours after use before
applying an astringent.
5.Do not use metal dishes or spoons for preparing
the mixture, as they can cause chemical reactions
in the ingredients.
6.Use for 15 minutes, if fair complexioned and 25-30
minutes, if dark complexioned.
7.Use once in 15 days, as the lightening effect may
not last too long.As the skin is a living tissue,
melanin is produced continuously.
8.Keep containers tightly after use.
9.Always store the kit in a cool, dry and dark place
away from excessive heat, since this could reduce
its effectiveness.

Common Myths
About Bleaching:
1.Lightens hair colour permanently: Cream bleach lightens
colour of the hair above the skin's surface and does
not affect the roots.The new hair will remain its
natural colour.
2.Bleaching Makes Hair Darker: Bleaching, or the chemicals
in it, do not cause the hair to grow darker.The change
in hair colour may take place due to factors such
as medication; environmental factors such as the sun;
and biological factors such as ageing, pregnancy,
menopause, etc.Bleaching does not thicken hair growth.
3.Increases Hair Growth: In some cases, hydrogen stimulate
the hair follicle, thereby causing hair to grow faster
temporarily.But this is only a one-time stimulation
and does not promote sustained growth.
4.Causes Skin Irritation: Since bleaching is an exothermic
(gives out heat)reaction, it may cause the skin to
appear flushed.However, this is temporary and fades
away in an hour or two.Irritation may be caused due
to:
a.Ultra sensitive skin.
b.Allergic reactions.
c.Interaction with other cosmetic products.
d.A pre-existing skin condition.
e.Improper mixing of creams(cream bleach).
Application of ice or aloevera based creams will make
irritation disappear fast.
5.Is Harmful To The Skin: Repeated use of bleach is
safe and good for the skin, as it cleans and makes
the skin breathe easier, besides camouflaging hair
to match the skin colour.
