Q: When should I start using this before my wedding?
A: For best results, start 2-3 months before your wedding using it 2-3 times weekly. Intensify to 4-5 times weekly in the final month. For last-minute prep, daily use for 1-2 weeks can still deliver visible radiance.
Q: Will this work for all skin tones?
A: Absolutely! Ubtan Luxe is specifically formulated for all Indian skin tones from fair to deep. The brightening effect enhances your natural complexion without bleaching or altering your natural skin color.
Q: Can I use this if I'm not getting married?
A: Of course! While it's perfect for bridal prep, anyone can use Ubtan Luxe for radiant, glowing skin—festivals, parties, special occasions, or simply for self-care and maintaining healthy, luminous skin.
Q: Is it safe for sensitive skin?
A: Yes, the formula is gentle and suitable for sensitive skin. Ubtan is naturally soothing, and we've included skin-calming ingredients. Start with once-weekly use and patch test first if you have very reactive skin.
Q: How is this different from regular ubtan?
A: Traditional ubtan brightens naturally but can be slow. We've enhanced it with 5% Niacinamide, 3% Vitamin C, and Hyaluronic Acid for faster, more dramatic results while maintaining the traditional Ayurvedic benefits. Think of it as ubtan on steroids—safely!
Q: Will it stain my skin yellow from turmeric?
A: The turmeric in our blend is carefully balanced and will not leave permanent staining. Any temporary golden tint fades within 30-60 minutes. For extra precaution, rinse thoroughly and follow with toner.
Q: Can I use this on my body for even skin tone?
A: Yes! It's excellent for full-body brightening. Brides traditionally use ubtan for arms, legs, back, and neck. Our formula works beautifully for evening out tan lines, brightening underarms, knees, and elbows.
Q: What should I mix it with for best results?
A: For brightening: Raw milk or rose water. For hydration: Yogurt or malai. For anti-aging: Honey or aloe vera gel. For oily skin: Water or green tea. All work wonderfully—choose based on your needs.
Q: Can men use this product?
A: Absolutely! Grooms increasingly use ubtan for wedding prep. It's gender-neutral and works equally well on all skin types. Many grooms start their skincare routine 1-2 months before the wedding.
Q: Will this help with acne scars and pigmentation?
A: Yes! The combination of Niacinamide, Vitamin C, and traditional ubtan ingredients specifically targets post-acne marks, hyperpigmentation, and uneven tone. Consistent use for 4-8 weeks shows significant fading.
Q: Can I use this during pregnancy?
A: All ingredients are natural and topical, generally safe for pregnancy. However, we always recommend consulting your obstetrician before starting any new skincare routine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Q: How long does one jar last?
A: For face-only use 2-3 times weekly, approximately 2-3 months. For intensive bridal prep including body application, plan for 1-1.5 months. A little goes a long way when mixed properly.
Q: Do I need to use sunscreen after using this?
A: YES, absolutely! Daily broad-spectrum SPF 50+ is mandatory when using brightening products. Ubtan and active ingredients can increase photosensitivity slightly, so sun protection is non-negotiable for maintaining results.
