MIR and RYVI Papaya and Banana Soap

Ms. Laiden Pedrina, CEO of Mir and Ryvi Home of Organics : The Beauty of Natural Products.

I am a sucker for anything natural, organic, hand-made and well-formulated skin care products. I always read the labels and make sure to know the product well, from the source, processing to packaging, my hair and skin is sensitive to any harsh chemicals like perfume, soap base and other inorganic ingredients, that is why I learned to formulate my own soap, shampoo and even blend my own massage oils, but the elaborate process and time-demanding task is too much for me at times so I learned to find some good products to use as long as I know the manufacturer or producer and assured that the ingredients and formulation is according to my standards and reasonably priced too, I always blog about it and share my thoughts and experience.

Speaking of soap base or key ingredients, Edgar Cayce, known as the "Sleeping Prophet" mentioned in his books and writings, the benefits of olive oil and coconut oil as the best moisturizing ingredients and to keep skin youthful, soft and supple, so in buying skin or hair care products I always preferred the olive oil or coconut oil based products, which this company did on their products.

Besides, I have a commitment to buy and use locally available products and to support  responsible and social entrepreneurship that is committed also giving a good products that is safe, natural as possible, protects the environment, that gives livelihood and cost-effective. I don't depend on too much  imported goods even if it is cheaper but full of toxic chemicals.  I am so happy there are lots of Filipino social entrepreneurs/producers of handcrafted skincare products like soap, one I had just encountered through Professor Melissa Grace Dizon-Dulalia, an ambassadress of Tourism, Wellness and Beauty and Ms. Laiden Pedrina, CEO of Mir and Ryvi Home of Organics: The Beauty of Natural Products.

The product I am talking about is a soap from "Mir and Ryvi" Banana and Papaya Soap, I know there are so many of that kind in the market but this one I can see their commitment to "People-Nature-Science", a commitment to bringing the best beauty care products that are naturally formulated and proven safe and effective, while contributing to the development of sustainable local livelihood, the best part is the advocacy.
