New Cyleina Organics Soaps I’m using

As an expecting mom, I’m wary of not only what I eat but also on what I put on my skin. There are a lot of discussions on beauty products safe for pregnant women, some products to avoid are those containing salicylic acid, retinoids, atni-aging products, hair depilatories and hair dyes. Good thing products I’m using are mostly organic and natural, and now, I’m trying out other variants of Cyleina Organic Soaps that have more moisturizing properties to keep stretchmarks at bay.

Shea Butter

Cyleina Shea Butter

Shea butter heals blemishes and keeps wrinkles at bay and is also an excellent skin moisturizer.

When I got worried about having stretchmarks, this is the soap variant that first came to mind when I ordered a new batch of Cyleina. It did moisturize and surprisingly, no bacne/breakouts too. The scent is mild enough, more on the milky scent, perfect for pregnant women who became sensitive to some smells.

Strawberry

Cyleina Strawberry

A mild whitening soap with blended strawberry fruit to counteract sunburned and heavily blemished skin. Poppy seeds serve as a scrub, which exfoliate dry and patched skin. Continuous usage will make skin soft and smooth.

I used this not for its whitening properties but for its exfoliating properties. It doesn’t make my skin dry and the poppy seeds are not that harsh on skin. I prefer it to have more poppy seeds though, for better exfoliation. Strawberry scent is not prominent too, just a mild candy scent.

Green Tea

Cyleina Green Tea

Green Tea is known for its anti-oxidant properties, the poppy seeds also provides mild exfoliation. The herb-y/earth-y scent of this soap took some time before I got used to it, the scent grew on me everytime I used it. No breakouts too.

These three soaps are what’s in my soap dish right now, plus I love the green and red color combination, it’s getting a lot like Christmas.

Cyleina Organic Soaps – a review

Cyleina Organic Soaps has been popular in many online forums like Girltalk and Teentalk for almost 2 years now. The soaps are lovingly handmade and uses organic ingredients and pure essential oils to make the skin soft and moisturized. Perhaps, the reasons why Cyleina Organic Soaps are popular is because it’s affordable and effective. I tried other organic soap brands that are priced at Php 100 or more, but after a few uses, I can’t finish the whole bar because it already melted on my soapdish. With Cyleina, I can still use the soap and gives enough lather even until it’s just the size of a pea. There are so many varieties to choose from so it’s unlikely for you not to find one that suits your skin best. For only Php 60 per bar, you can try them all until you find the best soaps for you.

Let me share my fave variants of Cyleina Organic Soaps:

Cyleina Black Pearl soap

Cyleina Black Pearl

Cyleina Organic Black pearl inspired soap made from the finest high grade quality of arbutin, collagen oil, licorice and Vitamins C & E. Only the best ingredients that mother nature can give are used in this exquisite creation.

This is the top seller among Cyleina soaps. I first used this for my face but eventually use this as my body soap as well. I’m crazy about the scent, it’s long lasting and the minty scent makes you feel refreshed every time. This may leave your skin a little bit dry since it’s more of a whitening soap than moisturizing. I also hope that they manufacture bigger sizes for this soap for the body since the 45-gram size is only intended for the face.

Cyleina Papaya Goat's Milk soap

Papaya Goat’s Milk

Capture the superb benefits of papaya and goat’s milk with CYLEINA ORGANIC PAPAYA GOAT’S MILK SOAP! This is higly recommended for individuals who want to lighten their skin color without drying and irritating their sensitive skin.

Most whitening soaps are a bit drying, but Cyleina combined two ingredients to work both ways, whitening the skin and at the same time, moisturizing the skin. I never experienced any itchiness with this soap unlike other Papaya-based soaps I used.

Cyleina Tomato soap

Tomato

CYLEINA ORGANIC TOMATO SOAP counters oily skin by absorbing surplus oil. The tonic benefits of tomato deeply cleanses and tightens the pores. Alpha-Hydroxy Acids found in tomato helps get rid of pimples and acne through its gentle exfoliating action and this also results to getting your cheeks a rosy hue and your body a fair glow!

I use this soap because it helps control my backne. I can feel a tightening effect after each use.

Cyleina Rice Bran soap

Rice Bran

A source of vitamin E complex, antioxidants and other micronutrients to help fight free radicals and combat the effects of aging. Rice bran’s natural enzyme will helps to dissolve dead skin & blemishes, while retaining moisture.

I got curious when I heard about the Rice Bran soap, I only encountered this variant from Cyleina. And it’s been one of my staple order because I like the mild sweet smell of this soap. It has mild exfoliators but won’t leave your skin dry. It’s best for sensitive skin too.

Ready to try? Look for official Cyleina resellers in your area, the soaps are also available at selected Hortaleza branches. But for your convenience, you can also order online from my trusted online seller at Multiply, she’s my friend/officemate. She can do meet-ups around Tayuman and Quezon Ave area.
