Snail White Namu Facial Jelly Wash Review

Snail White Namu Facial Jelly Wash

Bought for: P295/100ml

Bought from: The SM Store

I've always been curious with Snail White and it started when Kris Aquino herself raved about its soap and her video went viral. I tried the SNAIL WHITE WHIPP SOAP then later on decided to try the facial wash in the hope of getting a fairer, clearer complexion. I am not into using bars for my face as the best option for me would be those in liquid forms so I'm glad I got this Snail White Namu Facial Jelly Wash which I'll be reviewing in a short while.

CLAIMS

A gentle clarifying facial wash perfect for everyday use. Enriched with natural extracts like Opuntia Ficus-indica. Its unique jelly texture forms the perfect lather and refreshes your skin for a healthy skin. This facial wash thoroughly cleanses the skin and removes excess oil and impurities and it also unclogs pores without over-drying skin.

PACKAGING

It comes in a typical tube type of packaging that is very easy to use and bring anywhere I like. Information like claims, ingredients and expiry date are printed in clear form. It's also completely wrapped in plastic and aluminum seal so you're assured of its hygienic use. Genuine Snail White products has the authenticity seal attached to the body so if you don't see that, you're probable lured into buying a counterfeit product.

 

SCENT, TEXTURE AND CONSISTENCY

It comes in a clear gel-type formulation and it lathers so well when applied to the skin. It has a really playful texture that's soft and bouncy and it reminds of the gel you put onto the hair, like literally. Scent is subtle, nothing strong or off-putting. This facial wash is very easy to rinse of and doesn't leave a slimy texture.

OVERALL PERFORMANCE

It claims to have Opuntia Ficus-Indica Stem Extract which sounds alien to me. I did a quick research about it and I've found out that it's a firming and hydrating ingredient and is also rich in other Vitamins A-C that's mainly used for anti-aging and cell-protecting products. I appreciate that it thoroughly cleanses the skin but I have to say that it's a bit drying on the skin. It's the product  working to tighten the pores but I'm not really into tightening ingredients as it felt drying and uncomfortable. It makes me want to lather heavy moisturizer afterwards and then at midday, my skin would look like a grease ball. So nope, not hydrating at all.

What I like about this product is that it effectively brightens the overall complexion instantly and gets rids of impurities from the skin. It wasn't able to lighten my scars or blemishes significantly after a month but for a cleanser, it does its job well as part of the basic skincare.

I recommend this to anyone who's finding a safe facial wash that deeply cleanses the skin without the sting. I did not break out from using this product so that is already safe to say it's suitable for my oily skin. I don't think I'm going to repurchase any sooner though as I still have a lot of facial wash waiting in my stash and there's more affordable products in the market that does the same job.

Snail White Whipp Soap Review

Snail White Whipp Soap

Bought for: P295

Bought from: The SM Store

Let's not beat around the bush and so here's my unpopular review of the trendiest soap from Thailand, the Snail White Whipp Soap. We might be probably aware of this but the buzz just grew louder when Ms. Kris Aquino, in one of her videos, told us about her new favorite soap. I was once a soap junkie so there wasn't much convincing in Snail White's part (with marketing and advertising) for me to buy one to try. We all know that Kris Aquino has great skin and she claims that Snail White plays a huge part to it so I'm really excited to experience what this soap can do to my skin.

CLAIMS (AS PER WATSONS)

This moisturizing bar soap comes with a delicate net to create a soft; luxurious facial foam that deeply cleanses and nourishes skin. Bearberry Leaf Extract visibly brightens the skin while Blackcurrant Seed Oil; Sunflower Oil Concentrate and Balloon Vine Extract help to soothe sensitive areas. Hyaluronsan HA LQH hydrates and refreshes for naturally radiant; dewy and younger-looking skin.

INGREDIENTS

WATER; SODIUM PALMITATE; SODIUM MYRISTATE; SODIUM STEARATE; GLYCERIN; SODIUM COCOYL ISETHIONATE; NIACINAMIDE; BUTYLENE GLYCOL; SODIUM LAURATE; PROPYLENE GLYCOL; SORBITOL; TOCOPHEROL; CHOLESTEROL; HYDROGENATED LECITHIN; FRAGRANCE; TITANIUM DIOXIDE; HELIANTHUS ANNUUS SEED OIL; CENTELLA ASIATICA EXTRACT; SODIUM HYALURONATE; PHENOXYETHANOL; ECHIUM PLANTAGINEUM SEED OIL; HELIANTHUS ANNUUS SEED OIL UNSAPONIFIABLES; SNAIL SECRETION FILTRATE; PEG-90M; CHLORPHENESIN; ROSMARINUS OFFICINALIS LEAF EXTRACT; MUSA SAPIENTUM PULP EXTRACT; RIBES NIGRUM SEED OIL; CARDIOSPERMUM HALICACABUM FLOWER/LEAF/VINE EXTRACT; MANGIFERA INDICAPULP EXTRACT; ARBUTIN; MAGNESIUM ASCORBYL PHOSPHATE; SODIUM METABISULFITE; MONASCUS/RICE FERMENT; SACCHAROMYCES/COIX LACRYMA-JOBI MA-YUEN SEED FERMENT FILTRATE; TETRASODIUM EDTA; CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC TRIGLYCERIDE; SODIUM BENZOATE; BENZYL ALCOHOL; ASCORBIC ACID; FRUCTOSE; GLUCOSE; LACTOBACILLUS/SOYBEAN FERMENT EXTRACT; POTASSIUM SORBATE; OCTYLDODECANOL

I don't pretend I know very much in Science but going through the ingredient list isn't hard for me to say that there are indeed lots of plant extracts mixed in this product. There are really notable ingredients such as Niacinamide, Arbutin, Vitamins C and E and plant extracts like Bearberry Leaf (that claims to brighten the skin), Black Currant Seed, Sunflower Oil  and Balloon Vine Extracts (that help to soothe sensitive areas). There are a lot more that sounds unfamiliar to me but given that they are essential oils and extracts, I'm pretty sure they are responsible for skin moisture and regeneration.

PACKAGING

This is my first time seeing a soap inserted inside a net mesh. I've been seeing other organic soaps from local sellers that has the same feature and who knows maybe they've gotten the idea from Snail White. The soap is housed in a ziplock and the overall pink and white theme just looks so neat and girly. At the back of the packaging, there are necessary information printed like claims, ingredients, direction for use and even proof of authenticity. Be careful with imitations, they are everywhere.

 

The soap inside is opaque white in color, has a clean scent and I'm glad that even after several washes, the bar doesn't get mushy. I hate for it to melt considering that it's the most expensive facial bar I have tried, no kidding. It used to produce smooth, frothy lather only on first uses and eventually as it turns smaller, it loses the creamy lather.

Despite the price tag, I still think it's worth buying for. It will not turn your skin a tone lighter with just a bar but you'll definitely see an improvement in terms of skin's texture and brightness. With regular use (AM and PM), you'll see that your skin is more supple and healthier. It just brings out the glow. I use this for my face and body before my usual facial wash and I appreciate that it cleanses the skin well, getting rid of oils and makeup residues. The net mesh is a huge help because I don't need to use a towel to scrub my skin anymore. It's not abrasive as other cheap net mesh and is very easy to clean.

This bar is not as moisturizing as I expected it to be and I like that it does not give that taut feeling I usually get after cleansing my skin. This is why I would agree that it's safe even for face use. I did not break out while using this either. Overall, it was such a nice experience. I am glad this has been made available in the Philippines and I would surely repurchase.
