Biotique Bio Papaya Revitalizing Tan Removal Scrub Review

Biotique Bio Papaya Revitalizing Tan Removal Scrub (Rs 199 for 85 g) from nykaa.com

A tan removal product has been on my wish list for a very long time.  I hate bleaching my face, I find it makes more sense to just attack the tan and remove as much as possible.  Bio Papaya scrub was a no brainier.  I wanted to try out something specifically aimed at removal of tan.

Packaging – Biotique Bio Papaya Scrub comes with an outer cardboard box.  On the inside is a green plastic bottle with a wide jar style mouth.   I like this kind of sturdy and easy to use boxes since it is really difficult to use fiddly bottles when your hands are wet. Texture – The scrub is a dirty yellow and very thick in consistency.  You need to dip your fingers in and pick up the scrub.  The scrub spreads well with water – scrub particles are slightly on the larger side and are a little rough for my liking.  I prefer either softer scrubs or chemical peels that don’t cause physical abrasion.  Having said that, I still like the overall clean feeling that I get when I use this.

There is a very generic cream smell, that is reminiscent of small stand alone parlors.  Nothing that bothers you though.

The bottle instructions say you can use this daily, but I am going to refrain from doing that.  I don’t use scrubs daily anyway, just once or twice a week, or when I’ve been exposed to a ton of pollution. My Experience

I do find that my skin feels clearer on use.  I cant really comment on the tan removal,  I guess it will take repeated usage over a few weeks to show any of that.  So far, I have used Biotique Bio Papaya Scrub on alternate days for a week.  I also find that my skin looks more even with lesser dark spots overall.

Overall Thoughts

Note to self: Stop being such a snob and explore brands that may be budget.  Biotique Bio Papaya Scrub sits really nicely in my skincare regimen, I don’t have anything currently that promises tan removal.  I know I will be using this regularly.

Rating 4/5
