Wild Coconut Beach Sand Coconut + Earth Clays Mud Mask Review


Wild Coconut Beach Sand Coconut + Earth Clays Mud Mask
Bought for: Free | SRP: P145
From: Wild Coconut PH

CLAIMS

Clay mask to treat acne and skin problems. Made with all natural earth clays to adsorb toxins and oils from your skin. No water added. No preservatives. All natural.

Hey, guys. I'm feeling lazy right now 'çause it's Monday and I'm going to work tonight (yie, kakeleg lol) but I have to publish one single post before I go prepare. This will be a brief first impression about Wild Coconut Beach Sand Coconut + Earth Clays Mud Mask which Wild Coconut sent me along with a couple of products from their organic skin care line. So...let's get started!



PACKAGING

The packaging is really nice for me with the stainless screw closure. I don't know but it appears like a legit natural product for me hahaha. Unfortunately, it lacks the ingredients list but probably it's just made of clays and other beneficial ingredients. Even if it's bulky, I would prefer bringing this with me anywhere because it's lightweight and is travel-friendly.

TEXTURE / CONSISTENCY / EASE OF APPLICATION

This product comes in a powdered form with fine milled pigments, definitely a mask with no water added so you will have to mix it with a small amount of it before applying to your skin. It is a bit mess to apply but do not worry for it won't stain your bath room floors and it is easy to clean up. For the paste to turn a little thick, you will have to mix an ample amount of the powdered clay, otherwise, the mask will be runny. Just like other clay masks I have tried before, the pigments of this easily dissolves in water so it does not double up as a scrub.

SCENT

It smells very mild or almost nothing so you won't have any problems with it.



PERFORMANCE

To be honest, I like masks that have cooling effect or has a refreshing fragrance and this one feels plain on the skin. However, I like how it gives an 'extra' clean feeling after rinsing it with water. It effectively makes my pores feel tighter and my skin seem more polished and brighter without any irritation or itchiness. On my first use, I notice two fresh bumps on my forehead and I thought, "Oh no." I tested it for one more time and good thing, there was new bump the other day after my second test run. Maybe, my skin is still getting used to it. Let's see for few more days though.

OVERALL THOUGHTS

For now, I am liking their Life's A Beach Coconut and Milk Salt Scrub better. I'm more on the neutral side pa with this mud mask and I'm going to see for few more days if this would work in lightening my blemishes. And of course, I will update you, guys! Now I am eyeing their whipped coconut butter because it looks so delicious lol. Colder days, here I am looking forward for you lol.

Have you tried this mud mask from Wild Coconut? Any comments? Happy blogging!

First Impression Review: Wild Coconut Life's A Beach Coconut Milk and Salt Scrub


Wild Coconut Life's A Beach Coconut Milk and Salt, 100g
Bought for: Free | SRP: P100
From: Wild Coconut PH

To have that polished, smooth and soft skin, it is a must that we include body scrubs in our daily skin care regimen. Salt scrubs start to become a trendy product in the 'organic world' so I am always genuinely grateful to have generous sponsors like Wild Coconut PH, to give me samples to try. In a way, I gain ideas on which salt scrubs are the best in terms of overall performance. I won't keep you guessing any more, but this is, by far, the best natural and organic-infused salt scrub I've ever had for ages. Keep on reading if you want to know why.


PACKAGING

To be honest, the packaging speaks of how environmentalist the brand owner is because of the usage of recyclable materials for the production and it does amaze me because I am a die-hard fan of environmental heroes. That sounds too deep but it's true. Although at one-point, I can't hide the fact that it is not water-proof so during bath time, I have to keep the pouch in a higher place so it won't get soak. Also, if you are using this, keep the pouch sealed to ensure freshness. I'm thinking of transferring the remaining products on a jar though.

SCENT

The salt scrubs smells like creamy coconut and I so love it! It smells and looks yummy, sometimes I'm tempted to taste it lol. However, the scent does not cling on my skin after taking a bath which I thought it would.




TEXTURE / EASE OF APPLICATION

The salt scrubs remind me of ground coconut meat (if that is how you call it) except this is completely dry lol. I thought it would be one of those which I will find so messy to apply but when I put it on my skin, the scrubs easily adhere to it. I have salt scrubs before which are so messy to apply since they slip from the grip but this one is totally different. It has a different kind of scrubbing sensation. It also melts slowly and it even becomes gentler on skin after few seconds. It's just not the type of salt scrubs that you would be hesitant to massage onto skin because of the extreme roughness and drying properties.

PERFORMANCE

What I love most about it is that it is infused with coconut milk and oil that moisturizes and hydrates my skin even without putting on lotion afterwards. I can already feel the softness and smoothness of my skin right after every salt dissolves. It gently buffs away rough areas to reveal a brighter and more polished complexion. I just love it! I have tried this for three consecutive days--that's how addicted I have become and always looking forward to bath time--and it did not cause my skin to react adversely.


OVERALL THOUGHTS

Because of its extreme gentleness on skin, I can say that it suits any skin type whether you have dry, sensitive or oily skin. I also like using it for the face but not as frequent as body use to avoid any irritation. With its good price point and effectiveness, I would love to repurchase but I still need to try other salt scrubs in the market. Still, this Wild Coconut Life's A Beach Coconut Milk and Salt would be one of the best in my heart.

Planning to try this? Any thoughts? Comments?

Happy blogging!
