Is Voi Body Scrub Worth It? My Honest Review for Sensitive Skin
Hello, everyone! It's been 8 years since I last posted and I can see that a lot of you still check out this blog from time to time. Special shoutout to my readers from Norway, Hong Kong, Singapore (my ever loyal readerbase), Romania, Vietnam, and the US! Thank you for stopping by this past week!
So, where have I been? I'm a mom and I've been raising and homeschooling my son. By the way, if you want mommy, lifestyle, and homeschooling/education posts, please jump over the pond to my Life by Lady E blog.
So, today I have this product for you that I can't wait to share. Now that I am a mom and healing MCAS/histamine flares, my choice of beauty products has changed. I was sensitive before but now, I'm super sensitive!
And when you have super sensitive skin (like I do), trying a new scrub feels like gambling with your glow and your sanity. You don't want to suddenly cause a flare or hives, do you? I’ve had reactions to body wash, lotion, even facial tissues. So I was very cautious about this one. But it was on BOGO at S&R, and after reading the label, I decided to give it a shot.
I've been using it a month now, twice a week. Here's what I experienced.
What’s in the Voi Body Scrub?
This product claims to:
- Gently cleanse and exfoliate
- Leave your skin glowing
- Natural fruit seeds, in this case strawberry
- Alcohol-free
- Whitening effect
It comes in a generously sized bottle with a creamy texture and visible exfoliating grains—but not the kind that scratches. Maybe because it's made with natural fruit seeds.
Texture & Scent
If you're tired of scrubs that feel like sandpaper, you'll love this. It’s gritty but not harsh, and the creamy base helps it glide over the skin. The scent is strawberries and cream but I feel like it's too sweet. Haha! I'm not a huge fan of the scent but that's okay because I layer scents.
I'm not sure about the whitening effect though. I bought this because I needed a body scrub and I don't want to use St. Ives again. Let's see if my skin lightens up after a few more months.
How I Use It
I use this 2 times a week in the shower for my whole body. I apply generously. When you rinse it off, you'll be left with a silky feeling but I always follow-up with soap whenever I use a body scrub to make sure that I get all those itty bitty grains off because I don't want a reaction. So, I'm not really left with the silky, moisturized feeling.
My Results
- No rashes, no redness, no breakouts.
- Skin feels noticeably smoother after each use
My skin type: dry, sensitive, and sometimes reactive to a lot of things including harsh scrubs and strong fragrances.
Final Thoughts
Is it worth it? YES.
At the BOGO price (I think it was Php299), I got two for less than what I usually pay for one high-end scrub. For sensitive-skin users like me, it’s a win. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly option that actually works, give Voi a try. It comes in Kiwi, too, which I don't ever want to try because I'm allergic to kiwis.
