Say Bye Bye To Your Pimples with SoJoMi Gluta Kojic D'Arbutin Whitening Soap & Cream

These past few months, you might notice that I've been consistently using different whitening soaps for my face and body. And you've been following me blog and Youtube channel, you might also notice that do I truly use these products. And for that record, I do whitening reviews for that past 2 years and I make sure to use every product that I share for 1-2 months before I come with a product review. At times, it taking me too long before I come up with a review because I'm too busy with work and life. You may notice that I lacked reviews for the last few months of 2017 but now I'm finally back. I've been consistently posting my late reviews for the products I've used. 
 
ON HAVING PIMPLE PRONE SKIN: Having an acne-prone and sensitive skin can be so frustrating especially when you're battling with it since teenage years. One of my dreams is to have a clear skin but since I usually get hormonal pimples, it is still not possible. I'm still battling with hormonal breakouts especially when it's the time of the month but I'm glad that it's now manageable compared before. My skin may look flawless on camera but behind that, I still have lots of blemishes and red marks.

ON WHITENING: When it comes to skin whitening, I always and HIGHLY RECOMMEND using whitening soaps instead as I believe it gives a permanent result. Also, been using whitening soaps since 2012 so I truly believe in using soaps for whitening instead. Today, I'll be sharing another whitening soap and cream that I used for about 1-2 months (February to March 2018) and still currently using.

Last January 2018, I got a chance to try another whitening soap and a cream from the brand/company SCT. SCT or Sky Cloud Trading is an online shop which sells all natural and hand crafted soaps made in the Philippines. I've already tried some of their soaps like the GLUTA KOJIC ULTRA WHITENING SOAP, GLUTATHIONE TEA TREE SOAP, GREEN PAPAYA TEA TREE NATURAL BLEACHING AND CLEANSING SOAP and KOJIC ACID TEA TREE SOAP. All are effective whitening soaps for me. 
 

Let's start with the SoJoMi Gluta Kojic D'Arbutin Whitening Soap is a handcrafted, non-drying face and body whitening soap that is effective in the treatment and elimination of dry skin, freckles , acne scars, dark spots and skin disorders.

Scent: Smells like a bleach for me 

How to Use: 
1. Wash your face with lukewarm water.

3. Leave it for 2-3 minutes and rinse off. Rinse with cold water.
4. Apply toner or moisturizer afterwards. 


Next is their SoJoMi D'Arbutin Whitening Cream which is a non-drying whitening face cream that is effective in the treatment and elimination of dry skin, freckles, acne scars, dark spots and skin disorders.

KOJIC ACID (Helps remove dead skin cells| All-Natural compound derived from mushrooms | Helps to remove melasma | Treats skin hyper pigmentation | Skin natural antibacterial agent)

ALPHA ARBUTIN (Eliminates skin dryness | Removes freckles | Reduces moles | Lightens acne and pimple marks)

Weight: 50ml

Price: Php199 at Lazada; Php149 at Shopee

Consistency: Thick and sticky cream. 
 

Scent: Smells like bleach to me. 

How to Use:
1. After using the SoJoMi Gluta Kojic D'Arbutin Soap, apply the cream all over the face and and neck in upward motion. 
2. Use it ideally in the morning and/or before bedtime.
3. Avoid too much exposure to the sun to see faster results. 

Initial results will be noticed after 5-7 days. It normally take at least 8 weeks before to see the results. Use it once/twice a day ideally during bathing and before bedtime to delicately clean your skin especially your face to avoid acne/pimples. Also, micro peeling is common as this is a side effect of the Kojic Acid. 

*Please take note:
- Strictly DO NOT USE SCT / SoJoMi on your face with other brands to avoid skin disorders and breakouts.
- Use it once a day 
- Alpha Arbutin is 2X more effective and more stable whitening ingredient than Kojic Acid 

Review/result:
 

Watch my video review on my Youtube Channel below:
 
  

Pros:
- Effectively fades blemishes/pimple marks
- Lightens the skin tone in a month of use 
- Dries up pimples faster
- Smooth ens the skin
- Not drying on the skin
- Can be used everyday
- No breakouts

Cons:
- No spatula 
- Micro peeling effect for a few days (which is normal) 

Been using the soap for my face and body (for 1-2 months) and I can say that it effectively lightens the blemishes my my body skin tone in a month of use. No breakouts or dryness of the skin plus it also helps to smooth en the skin. I love how it effectively dries up and prevents pimples. There might be a micro peeling at the first few days of use. During those times, it recommended to use toner and moisturizer. I do hope that they'll include a spatula for the cream to easily apply the product. Overall, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this product for all skin types especially for oily, acne prone and sensitive skin like mine.
