Difference between Volume 1 and Volume 2?
Exfoliants: Vol.2 has acid exfoliants and Vol. 1 does not have. That is the only difference.
So for the Volume 1 Lotion to work you MUST buy an exfoliant (acid or scrub)to use with it. Either the 15% lactic lotion OR the shixglow whitening silk skin dead sea salt scrub.
Who should buy Vol.1?
- Those who do not like acids- They can skip using acids and instead use a body scrub.
- Those who want to occlude with it (check no.6 in the do's section)
- Those who prefer scrubs and other forms of physical exfoliation instead of acids
- Those who have used the 15%, 20%,or 30% shixglow lotion and their skin loved it and they completely understand how to mix/use acid exfoliants
- Those who know they will be consistent with physical exfoliation.
- Those who have their own acids at home and understand how to mix acids into lotions in the right percentages. They can mix their acids into the volume 1 lotion in the percentages they desire. Key word been you MUST have proper knowledge of acids and their percentages.
Why is it different

How to use:
Do's
1. Exfoliate your skin. You MUST use an exfoliant along with Vol.1 because Vol.1 has no exfoliants. You must either use an acid exfoliant OR a body scrub. For best results we recommend you pair it up with the shixglow 15% lactic lotion or the shixglow whitening silk skin dead sea salt scrub. . If using the shixglow 15% lactic lotion follow the usage instructions that are sent to you in email. If using the shixglow silk skin body scrub, use it to scrub your skin after every 3 days or 3 times a week, NOT DAILY. Please note this product will NOT work UNLESS you exfoliate accordingly.
2. Take a shower/ wash your skin every time before application
3. Use Spf 50 Sunscreen when going out during the daytime. If you do not use sunscreen, the sun will darken your skin, therefore you will not see results at all.
4. If possible, wear clothes that cover up your skin eg long sleeved tops. If not, you must apply sunscreen to any exposed parts.
5. Shave your skin. This is actually a MUST. Its the first thing you must do when you get this product. You must get rid of hair on your skin before applying a skin lightening cream. Hair blocks the penetration of skin lightening ingredients. Also blocks your ultimate glow. So either shave/wax before using the product and wait 48 hours after waxing or shaving. Even if you have very short body hair, you must shave/wax it off first if you want to get results.
6. Occlude: This means applying the cream on your skin then wrapping it with a black polythene bag. You can also wear a full body sauna suit instead though a black polythene bag works much better. The goal is to trap body heat, which opens up the pores and enhances the absorption of the skin lightening ingredients. This can take you several shades lighter and give you MAJOR results if done for 7 days continuously.
7. Apply a generous amount. Don't be skimpy/stingy with the product on your body. Just apply the way you apply regular lotions. Making sure you cover your body up properly with the lotion.
8. Rub in the lotion well into your skin. Don't apply as if you are applying face powder. Lol. Rub it in well/ massage it into your skin until you feel a bit of heat on your skin.
9. Apply it twice a day: morning and evening.
10. Use it less often once you get your desired results. The way this cream works is that the more you continue using it, the lighter you get. So once you get to the skin lightening level you want, start using it less often e.g. once a day.
11. Be consistent. If you are skipping some days, you will not get results.
12. For those who want to clear up hyperpigmentation on certain areas, which are like 2 or more shades darker, this is the right cream for you. You must first of all peel with the 15% lactic lotion and then after skin peels you apply this lotion. This will clear up your hyperpigmentation. You must however do the peeling 3-4 times. Within intervals. Info about peeling is explained in the usage instructions you will get on email for the shixglow 15% lactic lotion.
13. Keep away from direct sunlight and heat. Keep in a dark cool place e.g. inside a drawer
14. In case of any irritation or discomfort while using the product, stop using it immediately and seek medical help if it escalates.
Don'ts
1. Do not over exfoliate. This will make your skin dry and flaky . Don't think that over-doing the exfoliation will give you fast results. On the contrary , it may make your skin darker. 3-4 times a week is enough.
2. Don't apply immediately after shaving. Wait for at least 48 hours (2 days) after shaving.
3. Don't apply immediately after waxing. Wait for at least 48 hours after waxing.
4. Dont use if you are pregnant or lactating. As you know there are many things that pregnant women are not allowed to use, yet other people can use. eg certain painkillers. Not to mean that those painkillers are bad because pregnant women are not allowed to take them. It simply means they are not for them. Hope you understand this. You need to consult with your doctor first. We do not give advise to pregnant or lactating mothers. Consult your doctor for that. All our products' ingredients list are on the website.
5. DONT use on the face. It is not safe for use on the face at all. For face use the shixglow turn up face cream.
6.DONT mix with other creams or serums etc. Use it on its own as it is especially for the first one month. You need to see how it works on its own before adding anything else to it.
7.DON'T forget to take a before picture for your own personal comparison. At times it is hard to see progress until you look at an old pic. It could be a pic of you hands, legs. chest etc. Make sure to take it in the same spot eg your bedroom/ bathroom, or sitting room etc... because different lights affects how bright skin looks like. Then after one month take another picture. Then put them side by side on your phone and compare. That is how you will personally truly know if you have lightened or not. Once again consistency is key.
No consistency=No results.
Disclaimer: While we put in a lot of work into testing and making sure our products deliver the very best results as you can see by the many positive reviews, Shixglow offers no promises and no guarantees of results. Why? Simply because, we all have different skins hence different response to products. There is no skincare product in the whole world that will work the same EXACT way on every skin/ every body. The only way to know it will work is for you to try it out ;)
