It's because I want the best, healthiest and purest products possible. And I know, I can enjoy their products with ease of mind.

So now, without further ado, let's jump into the review, shall we?

My Thoughts
I'm blessed with super sensitive, combination skin. To manage this type of skin can be absolutely frustrating. I NEED to be extra careful when choosing skincare products especially scrub (facial and body). We should exfoliate our skin once or twice a week. For my case, I exfoliate my skin once a fortnight. My skin will go berserk if I exfoliate once a week. 

So now, let me tell you what I think about this scrub. The first time I used this scrub, I noticed a nice glow and a difference in the texture of my skin. This Pandan leaves scrub is gentle enough to be used on fussy skin like mine but strong enough to remove dead skin cells. To my astonishment, I can scrub my skin twice a week with this Pandan leaves scrub. It makes my skin supple, smooth and radiant with no irritation incurred.

My Thoughts
As I've mentioned earlier, I am blessed with super sensitive combination skin. My skin unable to accept exfoliation job once a week but Pandan leaves scrub is exceptional. I can use Pandan Leaves scrub once a week but not Pandan Chocolate Sugar scrub. I can use this scrub once fortnightly as the texture is coarse and sand-like. A little bit aggressive for my skin but it doesn't break me out. My skin feels soft. smooth and moisturised after using it. Plus I love the scent! So chocolatey! Yummy!
