Recently I've been trying out new brands for my body essentials. One of the things that I bought is the body scrub from Asian Secrets. Ever since this product came out of the market, I have been really curious about it. Finally, I decided to give it a try!
Asian Secrets Lulur's body scrub have three different variants that comes in different colors. They have the Licorice & Mulberry, Seaweed & Vitamin E and the green colored one which contains Green Tea & Vitamin E. All of them contained other similar substances. I chose the green colored one primarily because it contains green tea.
The body scrub was marketed as a beauty ritual for Javanese Princesses especially on their wedding day. So let's imagine feeling like a princess every time we use this
hahaha Sounds so good cause who said you need a crown to be Princess?
lulur body scrub lang ang kailangan mo! LOL
Product Description:
Asian Secrets Lulur Indonesian Whitening Body Scrub is a beauty treatment which originated from the royal palaces of Java,Indonesia and inspired by a ritual called lulur. Lulur was originally intended for the bride-to-be in order to beautify,smoothen and whiten her skin before the wedding day.
The Benefits of Asian Secrets Lulur Body Scrub (as written on its container)
*Lulur beads gently exfoliate and remove dead skin cells to smoothen and give it a radiant glow.
*Frequent usage reduces skin pigmentation and evens out skin tone by getting rid of dark patches, especially in areas prone to darkening like elbows, knees, armpits and the areas between the thighs.
*Contains green tea and vitamin E to help protect the skin and keep it healthy.
*It also moisturizes and leaves skin with a light fragrant smell.
PACKAGING
The body scrub is packed just like any other cream/scrubs available on the market. It is sold in a plastic container with a plastic seal. The seal is the reason why buyers cannot distinguish the smell of one variant from the other. I'm totally fine with its packaging even though nothing's really special about it. It's a good thing that they each container has its own label and information. Warnings, directions, ingredients, and manufacturing information are all present in the container.
Here's what the body scrub looks like:
It literally looks like a melted cake frosting! ahahaha The body scrub smells exactly like Pond's facial wash! seriously, I'm not even kidding. I don't know why, maybe it contains the same ingredients and formula like Pond's? I don't know what the other variants smells like because I haven't tried them yet.
Scrub all over your skin specially the dark areas while it is dry to remove impurities,dead skin and dirt. Rinse with water.
Here's what it looks like on the skin:
I highly commend it for being gentle and smooth on the skin compared to other body scrubs. Here's what it looks like when I rub it on my skin:
As you can see, there are tiny grain like beads that serves as the scrub. I don't know what it's called but it amuses me
lol
PRICE
I got mine for only 73 php. It contains 135 grams of the body scrub. It comes with a bigger package which costs higher. I chose not to buy the bigger one since I'm still testing if the product works for me.

*Tips
This is cliche, but please do read the information on its label before using it.
It's best to use the body scrub when you are all clean and set for a good night's sleep.
So far I've been loving the product because I really noticed how moisturizing it is on my skin. Sometimes the Philippine weather makes my skin so dry and I must say that every time I use the body scrub my skin feels smooth and soft, especially my arms and legs.
The product is also marketed as an effective whitening body, but right now I couldn't say that it is totally effective. I have a medium-fair skin tone and honestly, I haven't noticed any significant change on my skin color. It's okay though because I'm really not into skin whitening. I bought the product because of its function as a body scrub in the first place. If you're gonna ask me if it is worth it, YES! the product is worth it's price.
If you have tried this product or if you have any suggestions, feel free to comment below. Have a great day dearest! :))
love lots,
