Venus and Mars All-Natural Handmade Soap: Honeycomb Pomegranate (Emu Oil Based)

This is my last stash Venus and Mars product. I need to restock.

All-Natural Handmade Soap: Honeycomb Pomegranate (Emu Oil Based) | Php295
Honey Comb Pomegranate is packed with special nutritive jelly for Queen Bees and extracts from the Pomegranate Fruit. It aids in promoting collagen and elastin, helps remove signs of hyper pigmentation through gradual micro-exfoliation, helps in shielding the skin from the harmful effects of the sun and encourages radiant skin. It also works for all skin types - dry, oily, normal, combination. Honeycomb Pomegranate is bee-friendly too as no bees are harmed during the harvesting process.


The new packaging (white) on their products are nice, but I still prefer the colorful and floral designs... like the one in the photo.

I used this as my facial soap for a month a half. My skin feels looks clear, fresh and soft to touch. I still did get a pimple or two, but overall, my skin looks amazing!

I have not read anything on any concerns for people who are allergic to honey. But if you are, please do a small skin patch test first. (or not at all, if you are allergic)

Human Heart Nature RoseDew Mist

Face mists are so popular these days to keep ourselves refreshed on mid-day. Not only that, the vitamins and minerals infused boost our skin's hydration and supple.

RoseDew Mist 50ml | Php275
100% Natural | Alcohol-free
Spritz to a dewy bloom and keep that cool morning petal-freshness from sunup to sundown! Get a beauty boost times two in one dainty all-day spray:

Healthy Hydration: Pure rose water, beetroot extract and aloe vera give taut, dehydrated skin that revitalizing mid-day quench.

Makeup Meld: Save on touch-ups! A spritz of our RoseDew Mist helps set make-up, preventing it from flaking off for longer wear.


I do not use this during mid-day. However, I prefer to use it as soon as I get out of the shower, and as an addition to my evening skincare routine. That's when I want the antioxidants get absorbed to my skin when my skin is thoroughly cleansed. Everyday, I spray within an arm's length to my face, neck and decolletage (and after I applied my toner at night.) My skin looks and feels soft like a baby's. The fragrance though is a little strong for me; I hope they'd toned it down a bit. This product is 100% natural and alcohol-free.

As for make-up, I cannot say anything much on that because I don't wear make-up. I can't tell if it does prevent make-up from flaking off.

HUMAN HEART NATURE Scented Cleansing Bar: Clean Cotton

Human Heart Nature added another exciting scented cleansing bar in their list! If you want to find out, keep reading.

Human Heart Nature Scented Cleansing Bar 120g | Php74.75
If you are looking for just the right kick of citrus to invigorate your mind and stimulate your senses, hit the showers with our Lemon Zest Cleansing Bar. If you're after a balanced sense of calm and well-being, the suds with Lavender Mint. And if you want that crisp, clean scent of clothes fresh out of the dryer, try Cotton Clean.

Whichever you choose, you can be sure that our cleansing bars are perfectly gentle on your skin. They're cold-pressed to retain their natural glycerin, which helps your skin soft and supple. Here's a bonus: cold-pressing consumes less energy and produces less waste.

Did you know? It took us more than two years to develop our cleansing bars because we wanted to create soap that's truly good for the skin and the earth! They are without any trace of BHT and EDTA, discoloration-preventing chemicals commonly found in many soap bars that can irritate the eyes and skin. Our soaps are 100% natural, skin-friendly, and earth-friendly. Bathe only in goodness!


[ Read my review here on their Lemon Zest Cleansing Bar, Lavender Mint, and Aloe Vera (I think this one is discontinued) ]

These soaps are not only good for our skin, but also for our planet! My skin feels nice and soft every time I bathe without drying. If you may have noticed, all of their soaps are in plain white bars with an embossed logo. It takes a whiff to figure out what kind of soap you get in case you are surrounded with tons of their cleansing bars. I did not understand it the first time they released their soaps. Here's why: they want to keep their soaps as pure and safe for everyone, and to our earth, without the use of harmful chemicals.

The CLEAN COTTON Scented Cleansing Bar reminds me a lot of their Fragrance-Free Gentle Cleansing Bar though, but with a hint of a smell to it that is just right. I am not a fan of scents of "clothes fresh out of the dryer" kind.

I wonder what next scented cleansing bars they'll be releasing next? Please let it be vanilla and chocolate. :)
