O3+ Bridal Facial Kit Review | Radiant & Glowing Skin – I have previously reviewed the o3+ Oxygenating Glow Bridal Facial Kit (Review Here)and today, I am going to review another variant from the same brand.
The O3+ facial kit has 10 steps and takes 1.5 hours to complete the whole facial. I ordered the facial kit from the brand website itself on sale for 600+ and the delivery was smooth. There is a booklet that comes along with the kit which makes things so much easier. I do not think anybody would have issues following it and I would advise purchasing the facial kit from the brand itself as there are lots of duplicates available even on the most reputed online shopping sites.
The radiant and glow variant is actually costlier than both the Vitamin C facial kit and the Oxygenating facial kit. But, the million dollar question is, Is It Worth 830rs that too for a single use facial kit? Well, That is what I am going to discuss here in detail so that you can choose and spend your money wisely.

BRAND CLAIMS
- Gently repairs and brightens the skin
- Removes tan while boosting glow
- Maximised facial glow
📌 STEP 1 – CLEANSER
The cleanser is pretty good, does its job well in cleansing my skin. I did not notice any striking fragrance.
📌 STEP 2 : D-TAN MASK
The quantity provided is very less, just barely enough for the whole face. Since I already have their D-tan mask tub(Detail Review Here), I went ahead and used that. It does help remove recent sun tan but if the tan is much older, you may need to use the d-tan mask everyday for 2 weeks or so to get rid of it completely. This is not a miracle face mask with instant results.
The d-tan mask has a peppermint fragrance. The d-tan mask gives a fairness cream-like brightness which does not stay for long.
On application, There is a burning sensation on my skin which I hate. Since I have sensitive skin, It almost feels too much that I am just barely holding myself from tearing up. Give it 2 minutes and the burning sensation vanishes completely. My hubby had the same experience but not as extreme as mine. So those with sensitive skin, be careful. If it is too much for you, wash the face pack immediately.
📌 STEP 3 – WHITENING TONIC
A clear watery toner which gets absorbed easily with a couple of pats. I did not notice any particular fragrance. The ingredients are not mentioned anywhere so I cannot say whether this has any whitening actives in it.
📌 STEP 4 – MASSAGE CREAM
The quantity is sufficient for a full face and neck massage. Take your time and massage moving from your neck area, jaw line and always in the upward direction. A good face massage helps increase blood flow and oxygen supply to the surface of the skin. This rejuvenates, nourishes and imparts a radiant youthful glow.
Do not forget to drain the lymphatic system and press the pressure points around the mouth, nose, eyes and forehead correctly. Doing so helps remove toxins and puffiness while also relaxing the facial muscles.
While massaging, Dip your hands in ice cold water to improve blood circulation and promote relaxation. I noticed that the result are much better this way especially for those with sensitive skin.
📌 STEP 5 – WHITENING SERUM
A clear serum with gel like consistency.
📌 STEP 6/7 – PEEL OFF MASK
Mix the powder and gel together to form a thick mask as below. Once peeled off, my skin looks soft and supple but, there wasn’t any improvement in skin tone or texture. I have barely noticeable whiteheads and this peel off mask helped get rid of both the whiteheads as well as the dead skin cells effectively.
Honestly speaking, I do not think this would remove stubborn blackheads. I am ever so slightly miffed about the brand not including any kind of scrub/chemical exfoliator in this facial kit. Doesn’t make sense to me. Why would they skip that.
Instructions are much clear in the below pic.
📌STEP 8 – ARBUTIN SERUM
The arbutin serum comes in a clear gel consistency and gets absorbed instantly. The quantity is good enough for my face and neck.
📌 STEP 9 – ARBUTIN PEEL OFF MASK
Another peel off mask which I thought would brighten my face but Alas! Guess I am wrong again. I did not notice any difference in my skin tone or texture.
Follow the 1:2 ratio correctly to avoid the mask from being all drippy and sticking to your hairline.
STEP 10 – SUNSCREEN
My advice, Skip the sunscreen and use your own trusted brand. I checked the ingredients of this one and guess what, It has pore clogging ingredients and not so good UV filters. It is not worth the risk. Do not use any new products before the D-day since you do not know what could ruin your skin.
If you have oily, acne prone skin, I highly suggest you not to use this sunscreen especially if you are trying the o3+ facial kit for the first time or if you have important functions to attend.
OUR EXPERIENCE
Skin Types – Normal-Dry sensitive | Combination Skin
EXFOLIATION – There is no exfoliator included in this facial kit as opposed to the other 2 facial kits from the same brand which I find puzzling. Why would you not include an exfoliator?
My husband has lots of blackheads that I had to use a nose pore strip before starting the facial because I was quite sure those pesky blackheads were not going to come off otherwise.
1. If you have stubborn blackheads/whiteheads, steam your face and apply the Nose strip or directly apply the nose strip for 15 minutes and peel it off to get rid of them completely.
2. You could also apply an Exfoliating solution(AHA, BHA, Lactic acid) 3 days before the facial which works well in getting rid of the dead skin cells as well as clearing out the nose area.
There are 2 peel-off masks in this facial kit which I find unnecessary. “Massage cream-Peel off mask-Serum- Peel off mask again”, Rather than relaxing, this was just annoying. Each time I peel off the mask and check my face, I would be disheartened by the results. Also, 2 peel off masks could be too much for extremely sensitive skin.
ACNE | IRRITATIONS – Despite having sensitive acne prone skin, I did not experience any breakouts or skin irritation at all unlike the online reviews. I guess that is one plus point of this facial kit. At least it wasn’t a disaster, I will take that for now since I have a wedding coming up and any skin problem right now would be a mess.
RESULTS
Unfortunately, I did not see any glow, brightness or any kind of positive changes on my skin. It gave kind of like a clean-up effect which is not what I paid for. I really loved their oxygenating glow facial kit but this one was an utter failure for me and my husband. I have tried this facial kit twice before giving you guys my honest review. The first time, I was like, Maybe I did something wrong? Did I miss something? Well, I tried it again with no results.
Well, Imagine spending 830rs and 1.5 hours twice for absolutely nothing. No brightness or glow whatsoever😭😭😭

You have reached the end of my O3+ bridal Facial kit review.
I have never given any facial kit such a low rating but I have to be brutally honest here, I am so utterly disappointed by the O3+ radiant and glowing bridal facial kit. This was such a waste of time and money. If you have had a different experience, do let me know in the comments section below, I would love to hear your thoughts on this.
Next, I will give the Vitamin C facial kit a chance and see how that goes. That is it fort today fellow beauties. Thanks for patiently reading this post and hope I have helped you make your decision.
Good Day😇
