100% Pure Honey Cream Wash Gingerade

The natural body wash is formulated as a nourishing cream instead of being a gel. The product sometimes settles, so they recommend before application to give the bottle a good shake. The plant based formula is formulated without sulfates, detergents, artificial fragrances, dyes, and chemical preservatives. The no lather cream had a citrus-y scent with a hint of ginger. Personally, I like my showergel to provide copious amount of lather or at least provide some hydration to my skin.

Mirai Purifying Body Serum

The serum is enriched botanical cocktail of astaxanthin, shea butter, Japanese Green Tea, Jojoba Oil and Hyaluronic Acid. It is packed with all the good stuff and none of the bad stuff like parabens, bad synthetics, preservatives and dyes.  It promises to moisturize, prevent the visible signs of aging from skin damaging UV rays, inclement weather, and estrogen depleting hormonal changes caused by aging. The airless bottle helps protect against product degradation and keeps the formula fresh, plus it looks kind of cool on my nightstand. While the company promised a light herbal fragrance, the scent reminded me a bit of turmeric. I was a bit hesitant in using the serum in the daytime as being Indian I don’t want to use products that make me smell like curry. I personally didn’t notice any turmeric in the ingredients list but turmeric is a very good for the skin but I just rather not smell like it. I have used the serum every day night before bed and I woke up with smoother and softer skin. The serum is concentrated and lightweight so only a little is needed to provide results. I would get this again and would love to try the other products from Mirai Clinical.

The Soap & Paper Factory Green Tea Shea Butter Soap

I recently had a big haul at the Soap and Paper Factory and being a huge fan of specialty soap -- I decided to use the soap first. Out of the four different ones I bought, I couldn’t decide so I closed my eyes and picked at random. I ended up picking up the crisp scented green tea shea butter soap.  The scent is uplighting and makes taking a shower very pleasant.  It is a perfect way to unwind into tranquility. The soap provided a generous lather and left my skin soft, moisturized and smooth. Overall, it is a good quality soap; I just wasn’t fond of the scent. I am more into floral or sweet scents.This soap is perfect if you like “spa scented” soaps that are refreshing, crisp, and uplifting that is not packed with harsh detergents or petrochemicals, additives, parabens, phthalates, or dyes. And I also love the cute paper the soap came wrapped up in. It made it ready for gift giving or treating yourself to special treat.
