I’ve been always a fan of organic products be it skincare or makeup (mineral) though we really have to be assertive for trusting brands. Some claims their products are organic, approved, cruelty-free etc., when in fact they are not. Last week I received this package from Australia, my La Mav Organic Skin Science Haul. I don’t want to sound biased here but I have lived there and I know how strict they are when it comes to products and labels. It’s not that easy to put up a so-so business since people there are keen with details.
I’ve been using the entire products they sent me for a week now (2x a day), and like I said in my vlog, I can see the effects on my skin with the products I am using as early as 3 days to a week except for products like eye creams that takes more time to see the difference. Among all the products, I choose to review this first as for the rest, I need a week or two more to further attest to it.
La Mav Cranberry Bio Exfoliating Scrub | $42.95 (approx. P1,800.00) | 60ml
A lot of you may look at the price instantly while reading this. Well, me too because that’s my initial reaction when I knew about its price. I then told to myself, it must be really good for the price and it made me more excited to try it. For a week I can see the difference. I’ve been suffering from troubled skin before. Even my neck has pimples! Imagine that? *not good* I’ll be saving the rest of my points on my verdict.
Here are some information I got from their website. These are also printed on the box.

This is how it looks like. The moment I saw these, it reminds me of my favorite facial scrubs, St. Ives Invigorating Apricot Scrub but when I rubbed the product at the back of my hand, I didn’t feel any harshness or irritation which a lot of people have been complaining with the former.
It smells like citrus fruits which I really love. I enjoy it every time I use this product.
After scrubbing the back of my hand. you can also see small white particles.

Why perfect 5 score? If I will only depend on the product itself, it’s really effective to me. The only thing that I’m concern about is the price.
