Olim Naturals Vitamin C Facewash – Brightening Cleanser for Dull Skin & Uneven Tone

A glow-start cleanser for real-life skin in Pakistan

In Pakistan, dullness isn’t just “tired skin.” It’s usually a mix of pollution, dust, sunscreen buildup, and dehydration—especially when your day includes heat outside and AC indoors. Over time, skin can look less fresh, feel rough, and lose that clean, even-looking glow.

Olim Naturals created this Vitamin C Facewash to solve that everyday problem in a smart way: a cleanser that removes daily buildup while supporting brighter-looking skin with vitamin C + niacinamide, plus a gentle touch of glycolic acid to lift dull layers.

If you want the best vitamin C facewash in Pakistan for glow and freshness—without a heavy, sticky feel—this is designed to fit your daily routine.

What Makes This Formula Different

• Glow-focused cleansing: combines cleansing + brightening actives for a fresher look after every wash

• Vitamin C + Niacinamide synergy: supports radiance and more even-looking tone

• Gentle AHA support (glycolic acid): helps remove dull buildup for smoother-looking skin

• Hydration helpers included: sodium lactate + sodium PCA support comfort after cleansing
