I’ve been blogging on and off for more than 10 years now. Maybe more. Today, I decided to start blogging again, and I’m returning to my first love. Product Reviews! For my first, I want to talk about my recent Human Heart Nature Haul and current favorites!
I met with a friend a few weeks ago for a quick lunch and coffee, and we stopped by the recently opened Human Nature branch in Glorietta. My friend is the one who introduced me to HHN’s tinted lip balm maybe 2 years ago, and it instantly became a favorite! I’m a junkie for lippies, lip stains, lip balms, and the like, and I swear I told her, I wanted to stop by, so I could get a new tube. Just one tube! I promised!
Stepping into the store, I remember feeling so excited because it was the first time for me and I’d been meaning to visit since I saw their branch near our place! Walking around, seeing all the products, and, all I can think about is how much my friend, Cille, would love to be there too! Hello, Cille! Yes! converted na!
I really like their store! It’s bright and well decorated and on point sa branding! The products are all within reach so you can touch, try, and feel everything. As a newbie, who didn’t know a lot about the brand, I did not feel intimidated or overwhelmed around the store. Staff are all welcoming and lets you shop at your own pace! Hindi nakakapressure! They’re there ready to answer your questions if you have any, but won’t follow your every step around the store! It’s my pet peeve, so sending my love and high praises to the training team for implementing that! I had a really great time during my visit!
So anyway, remember when I said, I was just going to get a lip balm? Well, here’s what I got that day:

Ever since the pandemic, I realized that one of the things I neglected is my skincare. I even stopped wearing make-up because it felt unnecessary since we were all just stuck at home anyway. So getting these new products is a big treat for me!
Here are my favorites so far and my first impression:
- 4-in-1 Natural SunShine Serum
I bought this product primarily because of the claim that it can help soften and detangle matted hair. My dog has a thick double coat fur so he often develops tangles when he’s not brushed regularly. I tried using it to loosen a small patch of hair near his tail and yes! It worked and we love it! Just pump a small amount and gently brush using small strokes until the hair loosens. It works like wonders! Definitely, dog approved too because he doesn’t usually like it when I brush his hair, but when I use this he’s almost always calm. Love the light scent too!
Product Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Will I repurchase? YES! Probably not anytime soon because a little product goes a long way, but it’s definitely included in our dog staples now, and we’ll recommend it to other fur parents!
- Beauty +Plus Deo Roll-on
One of my best purchases ever! I started transitioning to natural deodorants when the pandemic started. I tried a couple of different brands and none really suited my skin type and lifestyle. Most deodorants I’ve tried either require reapplication or make my underarms excessively sweat. This one doesn’t! It’s all-natural, with no parabens and no aluminum salts, so I was a little bit surprised that it can actually control my sweating. My underarms feel smooth even after a long day, and no unpleasant smell either! Really like the powder scent too! This one is an unexpected discovery, and I’m really glad I tried it!

Will I repurchase? YES! Definitely!
- Balancing Facial Wash + Balancing Face Toner
I super love this combo! It smells really fresh, almost like a real fruit slice, and every after-wash is refreshing! This combo makes my face feel really clean without the post-wash dryness. It’s mild and my skin didn’t experience any negative reaction too! My skin’s been really sensitive lately, so that’s good! I’m not really sure how much it can control oily-ness though but I’ve been enjoying it so far and will continue using it!
Product Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Will I repurchase? YES to both! It’s the perfect combo!
- Night Moisturizer
I use it every night and I like that it makes my skin feel supple and bouncy in the morning! Like you had a really good sleep and it’s evident in your skin! I’ve only been using it for a few days and I already noticed an improvement in my textured skin. It’s not sticky, no breakouts, and smells really good! Beats high-end moisturizers for sure!
Product Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Will I repurchase? YES! I love it and I think I’m ready to incorporate more products into my skincare routine!
- Natural Lip Balm (Peppermint)
I use this every night and whenever I feel like enjoying the cooling peppermint! It glides on really smoothly, and is not at all greasy! As mentioned earlier, I’m a junkie for anything for the lips! I’m really enjoying this and I’m actually considering giving this away to my friends this holiday!
Product Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Will I repurchase? YES!
- Tinted Lip Balm (Rosewood)
The reason why I went to the shop! I don’t really think I need to say more about why I love it! But just the peppermint, it’s lightweight, really moisturizing, and has a really good color payoff! My perfect shade is Rosewood, it’s a flattering shade that’s good for everyday use! Dark but still sheer. It’s not mask-proof but I still really enjoy wearing it every time I go out!
Product Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Will I repurchase? YES, and I’m thinking of getting Guava Jelly and Flame Tree next time.
- Natural Dishwashing Liquid (Lemon-Calamansi)
I’m not usually a fan of anything lemon-scented, because I find it overpowering. This is not at all like that! This smells fresh and clean, like citrus peel, but still mild and balanced. Far from any lemon-scented commercial products in the market. It’s non-drying and works just as great as other brands. Plus points that it’s non-toxic and chlorine-free, and you can have the bottle refilled in the shop to save on costs and unnecessary waste.
Product Rating: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Will I repurchase? YES!
