Product Review: Glupa Glutathione+Papaya Soap

     I've tried a lot of whitening soaps sold in the market today. If you're a lurker in this blog, prolly you know that I've switched to organic soaps for the sake of my sensitive skin. I'm fair already, to begin with, whitening soaps either lighten skin blemishes that I get from pimple marks, insect bites or minor wounds like paper cut or from unconsciously scratching my skin while sleeping. I use whitening soap to maintain or even out my skin tone because there are times that I'm always out running errands in the afternoon. A change in a tone like one shade lighter is a bonus for me and it only means that the soap is very effective. For reference, I'm NC 15-20 in MAC.

     Anyhoo, I was invited by Age Defy Solutions the makers of Glupa products to an intimate gathering of beauty bloggers months ago. They gave us full-sized samples of their skin care products to try. The first product that I'm giddy to road test was the Glupa soap. I got intrigued with this whitening soap because the endorser is Boy Abunda. It is also a whitening soap that contains a powerful combination of glutathione and papaya. After a month of using the soap, here's my honest to goodness review of Glupa (Glutathione + Papaya) soap. Click CONTINUE READING and find out my experience.

Product Review: Glupa Glutathione+Papaya Soap

     Glupa, is a breakthrough combination of Glutathione and Papaya that gives you twice the whitening power and twice the Glutathione content. It also provides the proper nutrients needed to promote the body's own ability to manufacture and utilize glutathione.

     Glutathione + Papaya makes the best protection against oxidative stress in cells, thus, strengthening our natural defenses, markedly decreasing our risk of getting sick, increasing the body's ability to utilize whole food antioxidants, while guarding against the effects of free radicals on the body's aging process.

What I like: 

• The black packaging looks classy. 
• It has 3 variants (Glupa, Glupa Skin Solutions Plus, and Glupa Men). There's a trial size suited for budget conscious individuals. 
• This variant has a cool menthol scent that I like because it's not overpowering. 
• It produces a rich lather and washes off easily. 
• No tingling or burning sensation, irritation, breakouts or whatsoever. 
• This soap exfoliates well. I can see dead skin cells on my body after rubbing off with loofah. 
• This soap is non-drying. 
• My skin feels soft and smooth to touch after use. 
• There's a certain glow in my skin after use. 
• Even though the soap is cold- processed, it doesn't melt fast. 
• There's a batch and manufacturing date stamped in the packaging. 
• Easily accessible. 

What I don't like: 

• The price is a bit steep for those who have a tight budget. 
• Again, wasn't able to see a significant change in my skin tone after a month's usage. 

Will I repurchase? Yes! This soap is promising and I think with continued use, I'll be able to see the lightening effect on my skin.

Recommendation:

     I give this a 4.5/5 rating. I highly recommend this soap if you have a medium skin tone and wants to maintain or lighten skin without drying. This soap is also composed of grapeseed extract, vitamin e, and arbutin known to beautify the skin. Since the soap doesn't melt fast, no need to cut it into half. Good thing this soap weighs more than the competing brand of the same price. It's also easily accessible so no need to worry where to buy.
