I have been using the tinted lip balm in the color Chocolat. I like it because it feels light on the lips, nothing sticky or heavy. I like the color as well—it just intensifies the natural color of the lips. It has pili oil, which contains anti-oxidants and vitamin E, so it nourishes the lips and keeps it soft. It also contains elemi oil from the resin of the pili tree, which has anti-aging properties. Anything I can put on my lips that is made of natural ingredients and also free of harmful chemicals gets a two thumbs up from me!
I love natural products and I love it even more when it is locally made! The Pili Body Oil really softens and moisturizes the skin. I apply it right after taking a shower when my skin is still damp. I only use a few pumps because applying it on damp skin allows it to spread more efficiently, just delicately sliding on the skin. I make sure to apply it on my shoulders for extra glow, and also on the elbows and knees—body parts that tend to get drier and rougher than the rest of your body. Immediately after applying, I already feel the softness. The nutty essence of the oil is pleasant and the skin feels hydrated and moisturized the whole day.
The beautiful thing about this product is that you know you’re pampering the skin with natural ingredients. Pili oil contains antioxidants and vitamin E, which protects the skin and keeps it soft. It also has anti-bacterial and anti-microbial properties that reduce the risk of skin infections and help ease dry skin. The body oil also contains coconut oil so we get additional moisturizing and anti-bacterial benefits from that.
Pili trees are naturally grown and harvested in Bikol’s lush and fertile mountains, void of harmful chemicals from fertilizers and pesticides. This brand helps maintain the Philippines’ natural resources and also supports the farmers in the community, which provides them with better livelihood and quality of life. Isn’t that awesome? Now that is why I like supporting local, natural, and high quality products!
