I finally caved in. After weeks of hearing nothing but good things about Snoe cosmetics, I bought myself one of their signature beauty bar (their bestselling product, from what I gather) and their much vaunted clay mask. Snoe got several soap variants, most of them for whitening the skin. I have fair skin, to the point of looking absolutely vampiric since I rarely go out when the sun is up (didn’t even go to the beach this year because I couldn’t take the heat). I never purchased whitening soaps in the past since they tend to dry out my already shriveled mug (my sister loves them though). But why did I buy a whitening soap now?

Well, I get stubborn blemishes, especially when I’m PMS-ing. Pimple scars tend to look even more obvious when your skin is as sallow as mine (even under heavy concealer). I don’t break out easily but when I see a pimple or two, I tend to fuss over it and pop ’em so I got a couple of scars on my cheeks. They fade slowly too and with this complexion, they stick out like a sore thumb.

I wanted to get fast result but I really didn’t want to buy random Papaya soap sold in the local supermarket so when I caught wind of Snoe, I did my homework and got me the Kojic + L Glutathione combo soap. It was the perfect time to try it out since I got a couple of pimples in the chin area, I heard it dries up pimples and removes blackheads, two of my persistent skin problem.

From the looks of it, the soap tends to melt easily, so I plan to cut them to smaller pieces so there’s less waste. Tried it out last night and the experience is interesting. First, the scent, it’s milky watermelon, I quite like it.

It does lather well for the first few seconds but foam disappears completely after you leave it on for half a minute. Some people who reviewed it claimed it doesn’t sting but it does sting, very tolerable though. I felt my skin got super tight after rinsing off. I then applied the Calamansi clay mask to detoxify, I love this product. It had mild cooling properties and refreshing smell. It’s goopy which makes application fairly easy. Rinsed the whole thing off after five minutes and my skin was instantly brighter!

I bet things will get even better as I cleanse every day using the Snoe beauty soap and the clay mask twice a week. I can’t wait to use all these up and get rid of my unsightly pimple scars.
