Summer oh summer! Who loves summer? I do! Starting July, summer is here! This is a review about my two favorite things in July which are Fresh Soy Face Cleanser and The Body Shop Peach Body Scrub. Happy reading, gorgeous!
Don’t you love the feeling of clean and supple skin after a
whole day of full activity? Cleaning my face while I’m taking a shower after a
long day always been a refreshing part. I usually double cleanse my face by
massaging my face and neck (yes, don’t forget the neck area please) with a
cleansing oil. I’m still loyal with my Kose Softymo Deep Cleansing Oil for a
good lather of my makeup. After rinsing it, then I would use my facial wash. If
you read my previous blog post about my skincare routine, you guys must’ve
known that I frequently changing my facial wash because I’m still looking for a
facial wash that is gentle but can clean my face effectively, without leaving
my skin too squeaky soap dish commercial clean. I heard a lot of good review
about Fresh Soy Face Cleanser for quite some time and found some online shop
sells them. So, when I’m running out of my Body Shop Aloe Cleanser, I decided
to purchase one (the 50ml) and give it a try.
It said that it is suitable for all skin types and it is
extra gentle yet effective enough to cleanse your makeup even mascara. You can
see the highlights of the ingredients on the picture below. Those ingredients
will deliver a radiant and healthy looking complexion.
The texture is gel like, similar to Cetaphil cleanser, and it’s
not a creamy type of cleanser. It doesn’t make bubbles or foam which means, its
soap free. The cleanser is fragrance free too, so if you smell something, it
comes from the natural ingredients. For me, the cleanser has cucumber and rose
scent, with the cucumber scent to be more dominating than the rose. It smells
so refreshing! Another treat when I’m cleansing my face hehehe
The aftermath result, my skin feels soooo smooth, supple,
and not dry. It feels clean without your skin feels stripped. This soy cleanser
is definitely gentle. I felt that during my usage of this cleanser, my skin
texture is improved. They appear to be smoother and softer. Me likey!!
It is easily become one of my favorite cleansers, but
unfortunately the price tag is a bit steep. I finish that medium tube in 7
weeks. Maybe because its gel texture, so it makes me tend to squirt more than I
have to hahaha.. But seriously, if budget is not an issue, then this face
cleanser is something you want to keep in your cleanser line up. I really
really like this one; I squeezed it until the last drop hahaha
The next product that I reached a lot in July is The Body Shop Peach Scrub.
In summer, a smooth luminous skin is what we want to
achieve, especially when you are planning to have a holiday somewhere exotic,
like going to an island or a beach. You gotta show that polished and luminous
skin, girl!
One way to get it is by frequently scrubbing your skin, like
once a week. Scrubbing your skin will cleanse your skin from its dead cells; helping
it to regenerate better hence the new skin will grow healthier.
I bought The Body Shop Peach Body Scrub when they had a sale
some time ago, thought that Peach scent will uplift my summer mood. The texture
is creamy and a bit thick, with peach seed as the scrub. It contains sweet
almond oil and peach kernel oil which are great because it can retain moisture
for your skin. I chose this because my skin type is normal to dry, so anything
creamy should do some good for it.
I usually will rinse my body with water first before I
lather the scrub all over my body, that way the scrub will not feel too harsh
for my skin. Rub it in circular motion to scrub those dead cells, make sure you
scrub your body really well. Finally, rinse your body with warm water (or cold,
whichever fits you). Since I usually find my body still feels a bit oily after
rinsing it with water, I wash myself with shower gel afterwards to really clean
the scrub and my skin. If you have extremely dry skin, you might want to
reverse the step by cleaning your body first then end it with scrubbing it.
That way, your skin will keep the oil from the scrub and stay moist after you
pat it dry.
I adore my skin after I scrubbed. It feels smooth, soft, and
supple; makes you want to touch it all the time hahaha.. The peach scent will
usually still linger even after I washed it with soap. What I love the most
from this scrub is it doesn’t drying at all. Sometimes, when I scrub my body,
the smooth soft skin will only last for one day, and then my skin will turn to
be very dry afterwards. But this peach scrub does not make my skin dry at all.
It stays moisturized for days, thanks to its creamy texture and the oil in the
ingredients I supposed.
Last week, I went to The Body Shop counter again and saw Mango Seed Body Scrub is on sale. Buy one get one! I did not miss the chance
and grab them. I wonder if this scrub will also do a great job in polishing my
skin. I heard mango seed oil is also good to moisture your skin. So stay tune
for another review on it.
