Review: Deyga Natural Handcrafted Baby Care Products

Hi friends!

I'm not sure how many of my old readers are still here reading my posts, this one is coming after a very very long time. If you are reading this, thank you for being with me as my virtual family!

Having a baby and then this pandemic, life turned upside down. Motherhood is something that filled me with gratitude and now as I watch my son grow it amazes me every single day.

Sometime back a brand called Deyga contacted me to see if I would be interested in trying out their products. I checked out their website and saw their products are pure handmade, natural and without any chemicals. I surely wanted to try them out. Ever since my pregnancy I have been very selective about what I use for myself. And now I follow the same for my boy.

I tried out two different categories from Deyga products. In this post I will first share my views about their baby care range. I tried out the Deyga baby massage oil and baby soap.

Deyga Baby Care - Baby Massage Oil and Bath Soap

Deyga Baby Massage Oil comes in a plastic bottle with a flip cap. The oil is thick yet flowy which makes it easy to apply on the skin. It is made up of Organic Sesame Oil, Jojoba Oil, Cold Pressed Almond Oil, and Calendula Oil. The blend of these natural oils leaves the skin extremely smooth. 

I did find the smell of the oil a little strange with a smoky note. It's mainly because there is no added fragrance. It's the natural smell of the oils that have been blended together.

I normally massage my baby about half an hour before giving him a bath. I take a little bit of oil in my palms, rub them together to warm up the oil and then use gentle strokes to massage him. Massaging with Deyga leaves his skin very soft and he doesn't feel any dryness after his bath.

Price: Rs 1150 (for 250 ml)

Deyga Baby Care Range

The Deyga Baby Soap comes in a lovely handmade pouch and is wrapped in a paper. Inside the soap is a white bar which is extremely soft to hold. The shape of handmade soap is not like a regular soap so you will find some irregularities in it's shape. There is no prominent fragrance in this and that is a plus point. I hate artificial fragrances in baby products.

The ingredients of this soap are extra Virgin Olive oil, unrefined Shea Butter, sweet Almond oil, cold pressed Coconut oil, and cold pressed Castor Oil. All these ingredients make this soap smooth and gentle on the baby's skin. Almond oil is extremely beneficial in nourishing the skin. It doesn't lather like artificial soaps but cleans well.

Price: Rs 390 for 1 bar

If you like to use natural ingredient products only for your child then you must try these out. You can continue to use these cruelty free products even when your child grows up. 

Do let me know if you've tried any handmade products for your baby.

Vaadi Herbals Divine Honey and Sandal Shower Gel - Review

Hi friends! I've been trying to move to more natural chemical free products lately and during my search for something gentle to use in the shower, I came across Vaadi Herbals Shower Gels.

The ingredients mentioned by the brand are all natural. I even tried to confirm from their customer support and in the online chat they confirmed that their products are 100% natural and paraben free. So I went ahead and ordered myself one of their shower gels to try out.

I picked out the Divine Honey and Sandal Shower Gel which claims to lighten the skin. 

Sandal is known for it's skin loghtening and brightening proeprties while Honey is a skin elixir of sorts as it helps moisturise the skin.

The brand claims that honey eradicates the skin of dirt while Sandal helps clear up acne. I've been suffering from bacne again and this was the reason why I chose this particular variant from the shower gels from Vaadi Herbals.

The shower gel comes in a fuss free transparent bottle, it has the ingredients mentioned on the bottle. The bottle has a disc top cap which makes it convenient to use in the shower.

Price: Rs 205 (300 mL) [ purchased online from https://amzn.to/2N0HTHG ]

My Experience With Vaadi Herbals Divine Honey & Sandal Shower Gel

My first reaction to this shower gel was actually doubt. The fragrance is very strong and I know Sandal based products usually do have a strong fragrance but this one had a kind of chemical Sandal fragrance.

Review and Swatch: Living Nature Lipstick - Summer Rain

I reviewed a lip pencil from Living Nature a few day back - the shade was Laughter. Today I am sharing a lipstick from Living Nature called Summer Rain. 

Review and Swatch: Living Nature Lipstick - Summer Rain

Living Nature lipsticks are made using natural pigments and waxes that help nourish the lips while giving them a good color. I really like the way they name their products. Living Nature lipsticks come in a matte black packaging.

Review and Swatches: Living Nature Lip Pencil - Laughter

Living Nature is a brand from New Zealand that aims to bring 100% natural makeup products into the market. It has the highest level of certification from BDIH, the Association of German Industries and Trading Firms. BDIH certifies only those brands that do not allow any of the unsafe synthetic ingredients.

I had got a few products from Living Nature after reading a lot of reviews online. I am going to share my experience with these one by one in the coming days. I am starting off with a lip pencil that I have been wearing under all my lipsticks and also on its own.

Review and Swatches: Living Nature Lip Pencil - Laughter

I got the Living Nature Lip Pencil in shade Laughter. All Living Nature products come packed in black with white lettering and each has a word describing something - the lip pencil says 'Focus'

Review and Swatches: Living Nature Lip Pencil - Laughter

Living Nature Lip pencil helps in defining and shaping the lips. It is soft in texture (contains vegetable waxes) and gives a smooth application. It prevents your lipstick from bleeding and helps the lipstick last longer. The end of the pencil is also color coded so that you can easily identify it in a stack of makeup pencils.

Natural Mantra - A House Of Organic Products - My Haul

About a couple of weeks ago I came across a website selling all natural products while searching for an organic face wash. I'm going to share with you details on the website and my shopping experience.

Natural Mantra - A House Of Organic Products - My Haul

I am already aware of the benefits of natural products and I'm sure a lot of you are too. But for those of us still wondering why the need to follow this route - well here is an excerpt straight out of the website itself. I couldn't explain it better.

"Why buy natural, organic products when they appear to cost more than comparable products?" 

Well the truth is that you just cannot compare them.  Products that are healthier for you, your family and the environment reflect a level of care, research and quality that other mass-produced products lack.  Many people find that organic, eco-friendly products work more effectively and they need to use less of the same, as natural products tend to use pure, undiluted and uncontaminated ingredients.  Therefore, that little extra spent on natural products turns out to be of better value.

Not only is it better value, it is an investment in the health of your children, yourselves and indeed, the future of our planet.  We believe that everyone should have access to safe, healthy, eco-friendly products. Every product you see on www.naturalmantra.com is of the highest quality, at a competitive price. You will find here, some amazing earth-friendly products.  More importantly, this is the one comprehensive source for sustainable products that come from passionate sellers, for thoughtful and enlightened shoppers like you. 

At Natural Mantra, we want you to ‘feel good’ not only about the products you buy, but also about your complete customer experience. We would like to welcome you to experience a back-to-nature world of unique, organic, sustainable lifestyle products that will change the very way you shop!"

Nyassa Alphonso Soap - Review

Long ago in one of my Vellvette boxes I got this tiny little soap. Its the Nyassa Handmade Alphonso soap. The soap boasts of mango butter which acts as a moisturizer, mango leaf extract which is an anti-itching agent, and raw sugar cane that fights against skin toxins.

I love mangoes - simply love them specially the varieties that go in mango shakes, yumm..... and the Alphonso variety is like the king of them all. Oh how I miss those summer days....

Nyassa Alphonso Soap - Review

Getting back from my reverie... This soap looks just like a slice of an Alphonso and smells extremely yummy. It is super creamy to use and this small size lasted me a week of regular use. I loved using this soap for its fragrance and lather. I cannot however claim anything about its moisturizing ability since I used it during summers. It did leave the skin supple enough so that I did not need any moisturizer during summer. In winters however you might need a light moisturizer after this.

The Body Shop 100% Natural Roll-On Lip Balm Berry

I have normally used lip balms that are balmy (read vaseline like) in consistency. But recently I opted for the 100% Natural Roll-on lip balm from TBS.
