The Azlok Tan Removal Kit is a set of four skin-friendly oils — lemon, sweet almond, rosehip and lavender — meant to be used together to hydrate dry, sun-exposed skin and gradually soften the look of tan and pigmentation. Priced at ₹1039, it works best as a nightly nourishing routine rather than an instant fairness fix. Consistency, patience and sun protection during the day are what actually deliver visible results.
What's inside the kit
Each oil in this kit plays a specific role, and understanding them helps you use the set properly:
- Rosehip Oil (100 g) — the star ingredient. Rich in essential fatty acids and vitamins A and C, it supports skin renewal and helps fade the look of dry patches and uneven tone.
- Lavender Essential Oil (100 g) — soothing and pleasantly aromatic; adds a calming touch and is traditionally used to comfort irritated skin.
- Sweet Almond Oil (10 g) — a light, easily absorbed carrier that softens and conditions without a heavy, greasy feel.
- Lemon Oil (10 g) — brightening and refreshing, used in tiny amounts because citrus oils are potent.
How to use the Tan Removal Kit
Since these are concentrated oils, blend them thoughtfully rather than applying neat to large areas. A simple approach:
- Cleanse and pat your skin almost dry so a little moisture remains.
- In a small clean bottle, use sweet almond oil and rosehip oil as your base — they make up the bulk of the blend.
- Add only a drop or two each of lemon and lavender essential oils per tablespoon of carrier oil. Essential oils are strong; less is more.
- Massage a few drops onto tanned areas — face, neck, arms — using upward circular motions until absorbed.
- Use it at night, and always follow with sunscreen the next morning.
Realistic results and daily habits
Oils nourish and support your skin's natural renewal, but no oil bleaches skin overnight. Tan fades gradually as fresh skin surfaces, so give it a few weeks of regular use. Just as importantly, protect your progress: wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen, cover up in strong sun, and stay hydrated. Without sun protection, fresh tan will simply build up again.
Safety notes worth taking seriously
Citrus oils like lemon can be photosensitising — they may make skin more reactive to sunlight. Because of this, apply lemon-containing blends at night and avoid direct sun on freshly oiled skin.
- Always patch-test on your inner forearm and wait 24 hours before applying to the face.
- Never use essential oils undiluted; keep lemon and lavender well below the carrier oils in quantity.
- Keep away from eyes and broken skin. These products are for external use only — do not ingest.
- Stop use if you notice redness, stinging or a rash.
- If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or have sensitive skin, check with a doctor before using essential oils.
- Store out of reach of children.
Buying and storage
The Azlok Tan Removal Kit is made in India and has a shelf life of about two years. To keep the oils fresh, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat, and keep the caps tightly closed to slow oxidation. Rosehip oil in particular is delicate, so a dark cupboard is ideal. Buy only what you'll use within a season or two so the oils stay at their best. As with any Azlok oil, give the bottle a gentle look before use — fresh oils should smell clean, not sharp or rancid.
FAQ
Does the Tan Removal Kit remove tan instantly?
No. It hydrates skin and supports natural renewal so tan fades gradually over a few weeks of regular use. There is no instant or bleaching effect.
Can I apply the oils in the morning?
It's better to use the lemon-containing blend at night, because citrus oils can make skin more sensitive to sunlight. Always apply sunscreen during the day.
Are these oils safe for the face?
Yes, when diluted correctly and patch-tested first. Use plenty of carrier oil (almond and rosehip) and only a drop or two of the essential oils.
How long will one kit last?
With daily use of just a few drops, the kit typically lasts several weeks to a couple of months, depending on how much skin area you treat.
Can I mix these oils with my regular moisturiser?
Yes, adding a drop or two of the diluted blend to a plain moisturiser is a gentle way to introduce them, especially if you have sensitive skin.
