How To Use: The Overnight Brightening Routine Guide
Wake up to brighter, smoother skin with The Overnight Routine. Packed with active ingredients, this dynamic duo exfoliates, brightens, and smooths to reduce dark spots, uneven skin tone, ingrowns and bumps. The Brightening gel and Exfoliating pads work together to break down melanin anywhere on the body for a radiant boost.
What Is Discolouration or Dark Spots?
Dark spots can appear all over the body, typically on the underarms, bikini line, and legs. They can be caused by various factors, including shaving, friction, sweat, and the buildup of dead skin cells. While it's completely normal, many of us strive for an even skin tone to feel our best. The good news is that with the right products and a consistent routine, you can achieve brighter, smoother skin.
Step 1: Exfoliate with Radiant Reset Exfoliating Toner Pads
Exfoliation is key to removing dead skin cells and preventing buildup that can lead to discolouration. Bushbalm’s Radiant Reset Exfoliating Toner Pads are perfect for this job. These pads are infused with a powerful blend of AHA, BHA, and TXA:
- AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acid): Helps to exfoliate the skin’s surface, improving texture and radiance.
- BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acid): Penetrates deep into pores, reducing buildup and preventing ingrown hairs.
- TXA (Tranexamic Acid): Brightens the skin and reduces the appearance of dark spots.
Use these toner pads 2-3 times a week, increasing to daily use if your skin tolerates it. Simply swipe the pad over your clean, dry underarms and let the ingredients work their magic.
We recommend waiting 24 hours after hair removal to use the toner pads. Keep in mind that the active ingredients in Radiant Reset can irritate freshly treated or sensitive skin. Waxing and shaving both involve the removal of the top layer of skin cells, leaving the skin more vulnerable and exposed. Waiting allows the skin to heal and reduces the risk of adverse reactions.
Step 2: Treat with After Dark Brightening Gel
After exfoliating, it’s important to follow up with a targeted treatment. Enter Bushbalm’s After Dark Brightening Gel. This powerhouse gel contains 3% Tranexamic Acid (TXA) and 2% Niacinamide, two ingredients known for their brightening and soothing properties:
- TXA (Tranexamic Acid): Reduces hyperpigmentation and evens out skin tone.
- Niacinamide: Soothes inflammation, reduces redness, and improves the skin’s barrier function.
Apply a small amount of the After Dark Brightening Gel to your underarms daily. Its lightweight, non-greasy formula absorbs quickly, making it perfect for both morning and nighttime use.
Step 3: Moisturize and Protect
To maintain the results of your brightening routine, it’s essential to keep your skin moisturized and protected. Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer or oil like Bushbalm's Bermuda Dark Spot Oil to lock in hydration and keep the skin soft and supple. Additionally, if your skin will be exposed to the sun, don’t forget to apply sunscreen to prevent further darkening.
When Will I See Results?
Typically our customers start seeing results after 4-6 weeks of regular use. With dark spots and discolouration results will take time, which is why consistency is crucial in reducing dark spots, so remember to stick to a regular routine.
It's important to mention that everyone's skin is different and may experience results on a different timeline.

"I have thoroughly enjoyed adding the Radiant Reset Pads into my daily routine. They are super easy and convenient to use and have been very effective in exfoliating my bikini area and even underarms! I use one daily after my shower (except on shaving days) followed by the ingrown hair oil or dark spot oil. Using this combination regularly has definitely improved the smoothness and clearness of the areas where I shave!!!"
