Product Review: Yoko Spa Milk Salt

This is one of the product that I love love love the most and I highly recommend to everyone. The product I'm talking about is Yoko Spa Milk Salt, a product from Thailand.

YOKO Spa Milk Salt
This is a product I bought online, cost me about USD 2 for this packet of 300g spa milk salt. It has 2 packages, 1 in a tin that weights 200g, around USD 3, and this in a sort of a refill pack which cost much lesser but contains more product. Of course, I'll take the latter.

This product is manufacturerd in Thailand, so far, I've yet to see it selling in retail stores. But 1 thing for sure, it's an awesome scrub. 

The smell of sweet milk candy hits you once you open the package, and inside, fine granular grains of salt.

I used a generous amount on my body, about 2 fistful of salt. I wet my body, then lather on the salt all over. Some of the salt will melt once in contact with water, so I don't lather it on immediately. I waited until my body is semi-dry (if you get what I mean), then I scrub it on.

I used it for more than 3 minutes though. It is going to STING if you have some cuts in your body, because it is salt after all, and yes, it tastes salty, not milky salty, but plain salty.

After that, I wash them away, revealing smoooooooth oh so baby smooooth skin. It makes my skin feels as though it's gone through a luxury bath. I love love love touching my hands and legs after using the salt, it makes my skin ultra smooth, honestly!

However, 1 down side is the packaging is pretty lousy. The zip locker shown below, doesn't work at all. So you have to store your salt in another air tight container.

Since it's a salty, it will get clumpy once in contact with moisture, so make sure you do not splash it during your shower. Keep the lid on!

I used silica gel found in shoe boxes to keep the moisture away, so my container of spa milk salt is still dry and grainy, not clumpy at all.

Silica Gel to keep the moisture away
Alternatively, you can use other things to absorb the moisture such as grains of rice, crackers etc. Keeping the lid open in an air-conditioned room should absorb the moisture away as well since the air is rather dry in an air-conditioned room.

All in all, a great buy, and I will definitely repurchase it! If you want baby smooth skin, give this a try too!

  2. Hi Angee,

    I think skin whitening shouldn't occur overnight, or in a short time span.

    In truth, I only notice is making my skin soft and smooth, maybe because of the ingredients in the salt, but I'm not looking for skin whitening to begin with.

    But no, I don't think it whitens my skin. It just makes it buttery smooth. Hope this answer your question.

  17. actually watson sells this product in a very affordable price, like 69.00 pesos only, i just applied this product today and how my skin feels so soft, i love it! i hope this really helps in whitening the skin though, but i have a friend who used a salt scrub before, she forgot the name and she said that it whitened her scar a little bit, so i hope this does the same.
