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.

I will start off with the unique packaging - it has that personal touch with the little ribbons and cloth wrapping. Totally attention grabbing and pleasing.

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....

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.

Process of Making Handmade Cold Pressed Soap

This is how the creator of these soaps makes these beauties:  "The term cold process means that no external heat is used during the soap-making process. I melt my solid oils, add the liquid oils, then combine with the water/lye mix, fragrance, and pour into the molds. The soap is removed from the mold after twenty-four hours, cut, and placed on a curing rack for approximately four weeks. It can take up forty-eight hours for the saponification to become complete. The result is a nice hard bar with lots of glycerin"
