Review: Kojie-San Skin Lightening Soap


image
I've been using Kojie-San Soap for about two months already. Before using it, of course, I googled it first. So Kojie-san soap's main ingredient is Kojic Acid but what is Kojic acid?


Kojic acid is a product primarily used to whiten a person’s skin. Many consumers use products containing thisacidto lighten freckles and other dark spots on the skin. Although mainly used for cosmetic purposes, it also has other purposes such as preserving food color and killing certain bacteria. When used on the skin, it reduces the amount of melanin production.
In 1989,kojic acidwas discovered in mushrooms in Japan. Theacidis also present in other substances such as the leftover residue from fermenting Japanese rice wine. Scientists have also found this ingredient in other natural foods including soy and rice.

At first....
When I first used it, It kinda sting....A LOT on the face. But one thing I noticed after washing my face with it-- is that my pimple suddenly popped (if that's the right term to use) and bled. After that day my pimple dry up and since then, when I have a new pimple: it simply stays on my face for like 1-2 days ONLY. 

Now....
After weeks and months of using it, my skin started to peel off and light up. Even if I use lotion or body butter my skin still continue to peel off but I think it is a part of the lightening process. The first peeling process happened on my face then now it is my arms and legs' turn.
All in all, after all the stings and the peeling---it worked! The soap did exactly what its box says: It whitens. And somehow, I find my skin a bit softer than before.

Kojie-san Price:
  • 1 pc - 45 Php
  • 3 pcs. - 120 Php
*I recommend you to buy the bigger bar, the slim bar is not advisable for the soap melts easily.

Would I buy it again? Of course! It is my current soap. (^ v ^)

Product Review: Skin White Whitening Soap

Hello Lovelies!! As my journey to finding the best soap for my face and my body continues, it led me to this product: Skin White Whitening Soap . Moreover, the reason why I grabbed this soap immediately is because it has Niacinamide , a must for me since my skin hasn't recovered yet from the recent breakouts caused by Silka Herbal Soap . So here it goes: What?  SkinWhite Whitening Soap w/ Kojic Acid How Much?  46 Php / 0.9 $ Where?  Leading supermarkets & drugstores Pros: It has Niacinamide!!! <3 Smells good VERY-VERY MILD FOR A KOJIC SOAP Doesn't sting Easy to find Lasted for a week Cons: Not that effective in terms of whitening (perhaps whitening will be visible after months of use) Didn't help with my breakouts All in all, if you're not into instant whitening and don't like the sting of the usual Kojic Soap--this soap is for you. Will I buy again?  Nope. Recommend?  Yes, for Kojic Soap Newbies. :)
