It's
been a while since I last reviewed a whitening soap. And for whitening, I
always and HIGHLY RECOMMEND using whitening soaps instead as I believe it gives
a permanent result. I have been using whitening soaps since 2012 so I truly
believe in using soaps for whitening instead. I do whitening reviews for
that past 2 years already 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 takes me too long
before I come up with a review because I'm too busy with work and life.
Haha
Today's
review will be about my current whitening soap which I use for about 1-2 months already. Last May 2018, SCT sent me their new
whitening soap which is the Beautiful Blends Renew
Soap. I
haven't heard of this product nor seen/read a review so I was so excited to try
this one.
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 GLUTAKOJIC ULTRA WHITENING SOAP, GLUTATHIONE TEA TREE SOAP, GREEN PAPAYA TEA TREENATURAL BLEACHING AND CLEANSING SOAP, KOJIC ACID TEA TREE SOAP
and SOJOMI GLUTA KOJIC D'ARBUTIN WHITENING SOAP & CREAM. All
are effective whitening products for me. (Yes,
they are effective for me but that doesn't mean that I constantly use them. As
a blogger, I do try different products most of the time but I make sure to try
out the product first or consume it all before coming up with the review.)
Beautiful Blends Renew Soap is also known as
the Anti-Aging Natural Collagen
Beautiful Blends Bright Renew Mild Whitening Soap made by SCT. This
handcrafted and organic soap is a suitable whitening soap for those who have
SENSITIVE SKIN. It is anti oxidant soap which deeply moisturize the skin and
helps prevent wrinkles.
Ingredients: Virgin Coconut Oil, Olive Oil, African Palm Oil, Niacinamide, Magnesium
Ascorbyl Phosphate, Diacetyl Boldine, Trehalose, Caustic Soda, Distilled Water
and Soap Perfume.
*VIRGIN COCONUT OIL works as skin
natural antibacterial, antifungal and moisturizer.
*OLIVE OIL contains three major
antioxidants namely Vitamin E, Polyphenols and Phytosterols that help protect
the skin from premature skin aging.
*AFRICAN PALM OIL contains the hard to
find Toctrienols which are members of the vitamin E family that has long been
used to treat many skin disorders. Vitamin E is a strong antioxidant that helps
the skin to fight free radicals that damage the skin and cause fine lines and
wrinkles. African Palm Oil removes oil and dirt from skin and helps restore
skin natural oils. It provides deep moisturizing properties making the skin
soft and supple.
*NIACINAMIDE also known as Vitamin B3
and Nicotinic Acid is a very effective skin-restoring ingredient that offers
multiple benefits for aging skin. Among these benefits is the ability to
visibly improve the appearance of enlarged pores, uneven skin tone, fine lines,
dullness and a weakened skin surface. It also very effective to treat
acne.
*MAGNESIUM
ASCORBYL PHOSPHATE is a stable and safer Vitamin C derivative. An anti-aging
and non-irritating to the skin. It has the same potential as Vitamin C to boost
skin collagen synthesis that suppresses skin melanin formation. It is best for
people with sensitive skin and those wishing to avoid any exfoliating
effects.
*DIACETYL BOLDINE is an extract from the
bark of the Chilean Boldo Tree which is best for anti-aging treatment, skin
cleansing, natural sunscreen, lightening, toning and acne treatment.
*TREHALOSE is a sugar found in
plants, fungi and invertebrate animals as soap flavoring agent and moisturizer.
It is considered useful because of its rehydrating and water binding properties
as well as its antioxidant powers.

box and the soap is sealed in the silver plastic. The soap itself is color

Review/result:
- I
only use this soap for my body only, everyday (3-4x a day especially last May
2018)
- I
only use this product/soap alone for my body
-
Since the soap is HUGE, I cut 1 bar of soap into 2
Watch my video review on my Youtube Channel below:
Pros:
-
EFFECTIVE WHITENING SOAP!!!
-
Creamy/glowy white skin tone
-
Immediate whitening effects in as early as 2 weeks!
-
No peeling
-
No itchiness
-
Non-drying
-
Milder version of the famous Gluta Kojic Ultra Whitening Soap
Cons:
-
None
After
using 2 bars of this soap and 1-2 months of use for my body, I was really WOWED
with how EFFECTIVE this is when it
comes to whitening. I honestly didn't expect this to be that good. I was on my
2nd week of use when I noticed how glowy and creamy my arms and legs are. Also,
I like the tiny black beads in the soap as it helps with the scrubbing of the
skin. The soap isn't harsh and not drying too! No peeling or redness compared
to the usual whitening soaps. I like that this like a mild version of the famous
Gluta Kojic Ultra Soap though I honestly think this is BETTER! The soap itself
is really huge and lasted for a month with 3-4 x use every day (it was Summer
when I first started to use this!!) I like soaps which doesn't dissolve easily
plus those that would last a month for me. I would HIGHLY recommend this to any
skin types especially with the dry skin. Calling all those who are eager to
have lighter skin tone, I dare you to try this product and see the positive
results for yourself! :)

ReplyDeleteI started using dermal.MD Intimate Lightening Serum a few weeks ago, and I'm so pleased with the results! Before I started using this serum, I was noticing that my underarms and inner thighs were darker than they should be. They just weren't reflecting the light well enough! Since using the serum, my skin has brightened up a ton. It's practically glowing now! I can't wait to see what it looks like in a few months when my summer tan has faded away.
