'All my skin concerns vanished after using Makari's brightening range for 2 weeks'

Dark knees, acne scars, ashy elbows, and random scars that refuse to fade no matter how long it's been since I drunkenly hit the deck in university. I've found a cure-all for every single one of those concerns and then some.

The Makari Extreme Argan & Carrot Oil Skin to Love Kit - which is £143 at Makari and £165 on Amazon - arrived at my door inconspicuously, encased in a hefty cardboard box. Inside, a golden pouch revealed three items: the Extreme Argan & Carrot Oil Soap, the Extreme Argan & Carrot Oil Tone Boosting Body Lotion, and the Extreme Argan & Carrot Oil Tone Boosting Cream.

The Skin To Love Kit is designed to reduce hyperpigmentation and 'reveal skin's radiance'. You're meant to use the products three times a week, so I set myself a mental schedule of swapping out my usual routine for Makari's.

The kit uses Vitamin A to reduce lines and wrinkles and give the skin a glow, and argan oil to help treat acne and uneven complexions. There's also carrot seed oil for extra radiance and mulberry root extract for fading discolouration.

Every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday, I began my routine by lathering up with the exfoliating soap. My first time was alarming; layers of dead skin sloughed off me, leaving a squeaky-clean, baby-smooth feeling.

The body lotion applies smoothly every time I use it, absorbing easily into the skin. I only need four pumps to cover every inch of skin, so the massive bottle will last me a long time.

Its gentle scent is far from overpowering, and the tone-boosting cream smells identical so you're not covered in warring fragrances. I look forward to my Makari days purely for how pleasant the kit is to use - but the results also deserve praise.

Last time I was on holiday and gained a tan, a complete stranger remarked on how dark my knees were looking. Embarassingly self-conscious, I'm now pleased to say my knees match the rest of my legs.

The dark scars on either one have almost gone too. One from a drunk stumble and the other from getting hit by a car, neither brings back particularly fond memories and I'm more than glad to see them fade into oblivion.

But the biggest transformation is in my face; the overall glow I now have is apparent there too, and even more so because there is no more discolouration. Every spot and every scar has magically gone away, leaving my skin as smooth as it was when I was a child.

Makari's kit is not only a delightful excuse to perform some well-scented self-care, but it's also made me look like I frequent expensive spas. As soon as I run out, I'll be ordering more.
