Psalmstre's Placenta Soap with goat's milk may not be an ideal bath staple, but it tops my list of best whitening soaps. If it were less too drying, it will definitely be something I'd strongly recommend to those who want a fairer complexion in no time.
What I love about it:
- comes in a trial size (affordable at 30php)
- comes in 3 sizes to suit your budget (the largest & most expensive one being the most cost-efficient)
- in my case, (+) noticeable whitening within 3 days
- capable of exfoliating the skin
- no strong scent
 |
| Psalmstre Placenta Soap w/ goat's milk, 90g, ~58php also comes in 30+php and 80+php sizes |
Uh-ohs:
- utterly drying; a highly moisturizing lotion is a must
- may cause skin rashes (which I detest, hence, my recommending the soap to those who want to whiten the skin always comes with an emphasized precaution)
Pslamstre's Placenta Soap comes in 2 variants, the white one (with goat's milk) and the orange one. I find the white variant more effective in terms of whitening.
Some Helpful Hints:
1. for a faster skin whitening result, allow the soap's lather to stay on the skin for at least 5mins (oo, karirin ang pagbabad sa katawan) , use 2x daily
2. although the soap has an exfoliating effect, it won't hurt to use your favorite body scrub to hasten its whitening effects (try Asian Secrets Lulur or Abonne Spa Milk)
3. use a towelette when rinsing to remove the dead skin cells exfoliated by the soap (towelette is usually needed on the 3rd-4th day of use)
4. once you have achieved a significantly fairer complexion, decrease frequency of use to make sure that the skin does not experience chronic drying (every other day and make sure that the soap's lather just stays on your skin 3mins tops)
It's an irony that the brand claims to be an anti-aging soap. With the extremely drying effect on the skin, Psalmstre's Placenta Soap with goat's milk may just be the perfect tool to make the skin look old if you do not take note of Helpful Hint #3! This could've been a holy grail whitening soap if it kept the skin well-moisturized.
i'm wary of trying soaps like this also especially if it gave you rashes. i have sensitive skin kasi that's why hanggang papaya soap lang ako hehe.
ReplyDeletethat does sound promising for whitening fanatics! ma recommend nga sa mga kilala ko. effective and cheap!
ReplyDeletei actually wish i can look good in morena skin though, inggit nga ako ke Phoebe eh hehe.
great post! my friend had used this and she doesn't like it because its drying but her skin did become lighter...akala ko sa kanya lang yung effect na yun ^^,
ReplyDeleteI love this soap too! No arguments that it's drying but yeah, nothing lotion can't fix.
ReplyDelete@Crystal
ReplyDeletelikas papaya's my fave. all-time fave. this soap comes into the picture if the itch to become a tad whiter hits me :)
@MereMAkeup

@Photoescape and Jackie
ReplyDeleteIm glad you both love this soap! :)
ooh a whitening item that actually works for whitening?! say no more I'm up for it!

awesome review! I've been staring at that soap for the longest time, but never tried... glad I didn't.
ReplyDeletedrying as in safeguard ba ito? hihi
ReplyDeleteMost soaps dry away the freshness and the natural moisture and oils of the skin which is not too good for the dry skin people...and I am looking for a remedy for sure.
ReplyDeleteThey have a variant with goat's milk. That should help out with the dryness. It's smells nice too.
ReplyDeleteHi Sis! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your reviews, a BIG help indeed!
Btw, do you think this would work for scars left by insect bites? Coz my sister's friend said it was effective in lightening scars. Thanks in advance! :D
More powers to you!
Its lightening effects are on scars work fast, too, from what I've observed :) If you plan to use the Psalmstre with goat's milk on a dry, scarred area, it might irritate that part all the more because of the lack of moisture. Make sure you use a good moisturizer if this is the case. HTH!
ReplyDelete^ Thank you!
ReplyDeleteUhm where can I buy this? I checked SM Supermarket but they're not available :(
Hey will this could also help in getting rid of Skin Rashes
ReplyDeletepano mo malalaman kung authentic ung nabili mo?

Hi Marc!
ReplyDeleteI suggest since 15 years old ka, pwede ka gumamit ng OLIVE-C with Papaya Extract Soap or OLIVE-C with Olive Milk soap.
Sobrang cheap lang yung price niyan sa supermarkets & drugstores.
Psalmstre Product din naman kasi yan designed para sa mga ka age mo.
hi, is this soap still out in Mercury Drug store? I've been in 2 branches already pero wala na akong nkita.. I've been seeing the renew placenta one, but i didn't bought it, as to I'm really sticking to Psamlstre.. I've also been to hbc, pero wala din.. I'll check on Watsons by Monday I guess.. Sana meron pa rin. I really want to continue using this, as this soap is really effective for me and gave me the results I wanted. Thanks!
ReplyDelete- Mich
what is the new packaging of placenta soap?
ReplyDeleteThis is the only soap that is proven effective to my skin.
ReplyDeleteCyleina ang pinalit ko dito pero I switched back uli kasi wala akong masyadong nakikita na effect.
I just used it today and the peeling started again. Dry to the skin but very effective.
Ndi ba tlga mabula 2ng sabon na 2? Tsaka ndi ganun kabango?
ReplyDeleteHi i just want to ask if normal lng ba talaga yung super dry sa skin yung sabon na to at normal lng ba na mag karon ng rashes? kasi simula nung gumamit ako nag kaganun na yung skin ko ntatakot tuloy ako kc before naman ako gumamit di naman ganito napasama pa ata?

ReplyDelete@ Anon 8:35PM
ReplyDeleteI've wrote that in my post-- that this soap can be very drying and that it caused me rashes. Hindi normal yun, which is why I lessened frequency of use and the length of time I soak my skin in it. It also pays to apply a highly moisturizing lotion after bathing.
@ Chulet
ReplyDeleteYes and Yes :)
