Two months ago, I bought a menstrual cup from a friend who runs an online shop that sells natural and eco-friendly products such as handmade soaps, bamboo straws, mesh bags, and many others. Since she is a friend and I am getting into eco-friendly stuff, I decided to buy stuff from her again.
Since we are under a strict community quarantine, we had to rely on delivery services to buy from a place that is not from our cluster. Since I'm also running out of soap and shampoo, I just ordered from her as early as now and just didn't bother to wait for the quarantine to be lifted; there was no guarantee that it won't be extended anyway.
So I contacted her and she had it deliver to my door the next day. :3
Look at that packaging!
I mean, if you're promoting eco-friendly products then of course you'd want to minimize the use of plastic as much as possible. This is what I liked about it, it's so simple yet well-presented. I like the simplicity of it.
What really surprised me is there's kinda like a sticker thing with my name embossed on it! It's so cute. :3 Last time I ordered from her, she didn't have this lol. Me likez some customized package, makes you feel so special. :D
These are washable panty liners. Unlike the disposable ones, this is reusable for years and don't have chemicals that can harm the body. They are highly absorbent and since it's reusable, it will help me save money instead of buying new ones every week.
Since I have bought a menstrual cup, I'm not using any menstrual pads/napkins now. I don't experience leakage now too. But since I have light flows after the 3rd day of my period, it gets annoying to put the cups inside me. So, the panty liners will help with those light flows.
These are oatmeal soaps. All soaps sold by her are handmade and are made of natural stuff which is amazing. This soap nourishes dry skin and exfoliates dead skin cells. This smells so good it made me want to take a shower again lol.
Other products that I bought were tomato soaps (the kinda fuchsia pink ones), tea tree oil shampoo rounds, and peppermint shampoo rounds. These soaps and shampoos are natural and handmade as well. Of course, they all smelled really nice. I don't know what to choose first lol.
The these are freebies! The big bar is a glutamansi soap and the others I forgot to ask her what they are lol.
This glutamansi soap (glutathione + calamansi), this shit smells so good! The scent is familiar but I don't really know what it reminds me of. It just smells really really nice. I didn't order this from her since I didn't see it in the shop, and even if I did, I would still be uninterested since I'm not interested with lightening my skin at the moment. :3 I just want something that can make my skin soft.
I haven't tried all of them yet but I'll make sure to write a review to each one of them. I have heard good reviews from other people who have tried them, and my friend told her experience as well. I'm positive that they will have a great effect on me too!
Anyone from Davao city area who wants to try them can message her shop here. :D
Will try them for a month and I will share how it went! :D
