Manna sapuni za lice - Slonovača i Ebanovina + Sapun Latice cveta

Rešila sam da prvi post u novoj 2014. godini bude o prirodnoj kozmetici, tačnije o Manna sapunima. Kao što verovatno već znate ako ste čuli za Manna proizvode, oni u svom asortimaju imaju veliki broj sapuna za lice i telo, ali i za kosu. Pored toga imaju i razne putere za telo, kugle za kupanje, ulja i balzame za usne i slepoočnice. Sve je naravno veoma prirodno i bez konzervansa. Pa ako do sad niste dovoljno proučili njihov asortiman pogledajte šta sve imaju, a i cene na njihovom sajtu. Ja sam kao svoje prve Manna proizvode naručila dva sapuna namenjena koži lica.


I decided that the first post in year 2014. is going to be about natural cosmetics, more specifically about Manna soaps. As you probably already know if you've heard of Manna products, they sell a large number of soaps for the face and body, as well as for hair. They also produce various body butters, bath balls, oils and lip balms. All, of course, very natural and free of preservatives. So if you haven't studied their products  by now, you can look up the products and their prices on their web site. I bought two face soaps as my first Manna products.

Sapuni su stigli u paketu u kom se nalazila porukica za mene, što mislim da je baš lep detalj jer daje utisak kako brinu o svojim korisnicima. Takođe pored sapuna koje sam poručila stiglo je i maleno parčence sapuna Latice cveta, što me je takođe baš oduševilo.


Soaps have arrived in the package in which there was also a text messages for me, which I think is a very nice detail, because it gives the impression that they care about their customers. Also, in addition to soaps I ordered, there was a small peace of Flower petals soap, which was also very nice.

Kao što vidite sapuni su pakovanu u vrlo lep papir, koji još više asocira na to da se radi o prirodnoj kozmetici. Naravno ono što je bitno je da se ispod tog ukrasnog papira nalazi sapun u vakumiranoj providnoj foliji, pa je veoma dobro zaštićen. 

As you can see soaps are packaged in a very nice paper, which goes well with the natural cosmetics theme. Of course, what matters is that beneath the decorative paper the soap is vacuum packed in a transparent foil, so it's well protected.

Sapun imaju 90g i prilično su veliki. Sigurno će vam trajati baš dugo. Ja sam sapune presekla na pola i podelila sa sestrom, a i te polovine mi i dalje traju i baš se sporo troše. Oba sapuna koštaju 595 dinara. Međutim ako kupite samo jedan sapun tj. cena vaše porudžbine iznosi ispod 999 dinara moraćete da platite i poštarinu od 279 dinara. U slučaju da je cena vaše porudžbine 1000-1499 dinara poštarina se smanjuje na 149 dinara koliko sam je ja i platila za ova dva sapuna. Naravno poštarina se može još smanjiti ako kupite još više stvari.

Soaps have 90g and are quite large. They will last very long time, for sure. I have cut my soaps in half and shared them with my sister, and I still have my halves. Both soaps cost 595 RSD. But if you buy only one soap and the price of your order is below 999 RSD, you'll have to pay the postage of 279 RSD, too. When the price of your order is between 1000-1499 RSD postage is reduced to 149 RSD, how much I paid for the my order. Of course postage can be further reduced if you buy more stuff.

1. Sapun Ebanovina

1. Ebony soap

Ovaj sapun je crne boje, a to duguje medicinskom uglju (Carbo medicinalis) koji se nalazi u njegovom sastavu. Takođe sadrži i ekstra devičansko maslinovo ulje, susamovo ulje, shea puter, kokosovo ulje i ricinusovo ulje. Šta oni kažu o sapunu:

- Dubinski čisti,
- Delotvorno vrši detoksikaciju,
- Zahvaljujući svojoj aktivnoj površini, sposoban je da privuče ka sebi suvišne masnoće i toksične materije iz kože,
- Prodire u kožu i pore čisti iz dubine,
- Uklanja nečistoće,
- Nežno neguje kožu zahvaćenu aknama i miteserima.


This soap is black, and it owes that to medical coal (Carbo medicinalis), which is in its ingredients. It also includes extra virginal olive oil, sesame oil, shea butter, coconut and castor oil. What they say about the soap:
- Deeply cleans,
- Detoxifies the skin efficiently,
- Thanks to its active surface, it's capable of attracting excess oil and toxic substances from the skin,
- Penetrates the skin and  cleans pores deeply,
- Removes impurities,
- Gently nourishes acne and blackheads prone skin.

Moji utisci o sapunu su veoma pozitivni. Veoma dobro čisti kožu i ona je nakon umivanja veoma mekana i glatka. Zaista se oseća i izgleda dubinski čisto. Dobro čisti i proširene pore i mitisere. Nije mi ih skroz uklonio ali su pore mnogo čistije i nakupljanje masnoća je dosta smanjeno. Sav višak sebuma je uklonjen. Sam sapun nema neki poseban miris, veoma blag. Prosto miriše na prirodne sapune, ako ste ih nekada probali, znate na šta mislim. Pravi dovoljno pene, ali pena nije mnogo gusta. Mada ima je sasvim dovoljno da se lepo umijete.

My impressions of this soap are very positive. It cleans the skin very well and after using it the skin is very soft and smooth. Skin really feels and looks deeply cleansed. It cleans enlarged pores and blackheads well. Though it didn't remove them completely, my pores are much cleaner and oil accumulation is quite reduced. Any excess sebum is removed. The soap has no specific smell, very bland. It simply smells of natural soaps, if you have ever tried them you'll know what I mean. It produces enough foam, but the foam isn't very thick. Although there is quite enough of it to wash your face well.

Ovaj sapun ima po meni dve mane. Prva je ta što nenormalno peče ako dospe u oši, a ja volim da kada se umivam operem celo lice pa ne zaobilazim ni oči. I onda moram vrlo pažljivo da trljam i veoma podrobno da ispiram. Druga mana je što blago isušuje kožu. Zato ga nikako ne bih preporučila osobama sa suvom kožom, pa možda čak ni sa normalnom. Ali za masnokošce i osobe sa mešovitom kožom (ali bez suvih obraza) je super. Pošto malo isušuje ubrzao je proces nestanka hormonskih bubuljica i smirio crvenilo. Meni se veoma svideo, ali činjenica je da nije za svakoga.

This soap has two downsides. The first one is that it burns so much if it gets in your eyes, and I like to wash my face whole and I don't like to skip the eye region. So I have to wash very carefully and rinse a lot. Another drawback is that it slightly dries out the skin. I wouldn't recommend it to people with dry skin, maybe not even with normal skin. But for oily and mixed skin (but without dry cheeks) it is great. Since it dries the skin a little it accelerated disappearance of hormonal pimples and redness. I liked it quite a lot, but the fact is that it is not for everyone.

2. Sapun Slonovača:

2. Ivory soap:

 

Ovaj sapun je nasuprot prvog sapuna bele boje. U sebi sadrži belu glinu, koja ima sposobnost izvlačenja masnoća iz kože, bez njenog isušivanja. Pored gline ovaj sapun sadrži i ekstra devičansko maslinovo ulje, susamovo ulje, kako puter, kokosovo ulje i ricinusovo ulje. Šta oni kažu o sapunu: 

- Temeljno čisti i besprekorno otklanja svakodnevne nečistoće sa površine vaše kože,
 - Nežno neguje,
 - Poravnava kožu i čini je baršunastom,
 - Izvanredno vrši detoksikaciju,
 - Popravlja strukturu kože,
 - Regeneriše je,
 - Smiruje je,
 - Dobro zamenjuje bebi pudere, zbog toga će i koži vaše bebe učiniti uslugu,
 - Pogodna je za sve tipove kože, ali će Slonovača sapunu za čišćenje lica najviše biti zahvalna suva, osetljiva, iritirana i zrela koža.


This soap is the opposite of the first soap and has white colour. It contains white clay, which has the capability of extracting oil from the skin without drying it. In addition to clay, this soap contains extra virginal olive oil, sesame oil, cocoa butter, coconut and castor oil. What they say about the soap:
- It deeply cleanses and impeccably removes everyday dirt from the surface of your skin,
- Gently nourishes, 
- Makes skin flat and velvety, 
- Outstanding detoxification,
 - It improves skin structure, 
- Regenerates it, 
- Calms it, 
- I replaced the baby powders, so you'll do your baby's skin a favor,
 - Suitable for all skin types, but the Ivory soap is best for dry, sensitive, irritated and mature skin.

Što se čišćenja kože tiče podjednako je dobar kao i sapun Ebanovina. Zaista temeljno i dobro čisti i uklanja masnoće, ali zaista za razliku od Ebanovine nakon umivanja nema nikakvog zatezanja i koža nije isušena. Na žalost isto kao i kod prvog sapuna ekstremno peče kada upadne pena u oči. I ovim sapunom sam jako zadovoljna i mislim da je mnogo svestraniji jer mogu da ga koriste i osobe sa suvljom kožom. S druge strane ako imate problematičnu kožu, čini mi se da ovaj sapun malo sporije isušuje i smiruje bubuljice od Ebanovine, mada ipak utiče na njihovo ubrzano nestajanje.


As far as cleaning the skin it is just as good as Ebony soap. It really cleans and removes oil well, but unlike Ebony soap, after use there is no tightening and the skin is not dry. Unfortunately, the same as for the first soap, it burns extremely when the foam goes in the eyes. I'm very pleased with this soap and I think it is much more versatile because it can be used even by people with dry skin. On the other hand if you have problematic skin, it seems to me that this soap dries out pimples a little slower then Ebony, but it still helps with their faster disappearance.

Oba sapuna su zaista dobra, ali moram da napomenem da mislim da ne mogu samostalno da pobede bubuljice, posebno ako imate baš problematičnu kožu. Ako imate problema sa pokojom hormonskom bubuljicom, masnom kožom i mitiserima, onda će ovi sapuni biti prilično dobri za vas.


Both soaps are really good, but I have to mention that I don't think they can fight pimples by themselves, especially if you have very problematic skin. If you have a problem with occasional hormonal pimples, blackheads and oily skin, then these soaps are probably going to be pretty good for you. 

3. Sapun Latice cvete


3. Flower petals soap

Na kraju želim da napišem i nekoliko reči o sapunčiću koji sam dobila uz porudžbinu. Ovaj sapun je žućkasto bele boje, a kroz sebe ima tamnije braonkaste mrljice. Sapun nema miris kao i prethodna dva što me je malo razočaralo. Koristila sam ga za tuširanje, a kada se tuširam volim da oko mene lepo miriše. Inače pravi prilično dobru penu i samo blago isušuje kožu, veoma neprimetno, tako da nije loš.


Finally I want to write a few words about the soaps that I got with my order. This soap is a yellowish white colour, and has a dark brownish specks  through. The soap doesn't have any scent like the previous two, which disappointed me a bit. I used it for shower, and when I take a shower I like nice smells around me. Otherwise it produces a pretty good foam, and only slightly dries out the skin, very inconspicuously, so it's not bad.

O njemu imam neko srednje mišljenje, mada najviše zbog toga što sam se nadala da će lepo mirisati, valjda zbog naziva. Inače nije loš.


I have a medium opinion about it, but mostly because I was hoping that it smells nice, I guess because of its name. Otherwise, it's not bad.

Da li ste vi probali neki od Manna sapuna? Ja bih volela da probam neki od njihovih mirisljavih Coco sapuna.

Šta mi se sviđa kod ovih sapuna:
- cena nije loša,
- pakovanje,
- prirodni sastojci,
- veliki izbor sapuna,
- odlično čiste kožu i uklanjaju višak masnoće.

Šta mi se ne sviđa:
- skupa poštarina,
- nemaju miris, mada mi je to smetalo samo kod sapuna Latice cveta,
- sapun Ebanovina malo isušuje kožu,
- strahovito peku ako upadne pena u oči.
