Moms only want what’s best for their families. That is why many are bent on pursuing natural living. We want to use what’s natural and pure, if not organic, so that we can limit our use of chemicals. If you are looking for an alternative brand to convert to a more natural lifestyle, check out True Ph. They carry plant-based, all-natural bath products for the whole family. And the best thing is, these are proudly Philippine-made.

Using Natural Bath Products

Many of the products found in our bathrooms contain large amounts of harmful chemicals. With continued and prolonged use, these chemicals get inside our bodies and mess up our natural processes.

That is why many moms are searching for alternatives. To pursue a more natural lifestyle, they are seeking for plant-based or natural bath products. These are not only good for the family but also safe for the environment.

One such brand is True PH, a family-owned start-up company that produces home-grown, proudly Filipino products. These are natural and all locally made.

The company seeks to offer a better alternative than usual supermarket offerings. True has developed products with zero chemicals for a healthier Filipino family.

True Protect

Aside from shampoo, body wash, feminine wash, and the like, True has expanded its product lines. They have developed True Protect, which is a collection of daily essential needs.

With Filipinos now being conscious about sanitizing because of the threat of Covid-19, it is imperative that we have a natural alternative. Products included under the True Protect line are:

• No-rinse hand soap
• Hand sanitizer
• 100% biodegradable sanitizing wipes
• Plant-based dishwashing liquid
• Plant-based hand soap

I especially love the no-rinse soap. It is foaming and you can “wash” your hands. They feel squeaky clean afterwards and smell so good!

Biodegradable Sanitizing Wipes

One product that I really want to highlight are their biodegradable sanitizing wipes.

I know that many moms use this and I think that their use have increased during the pandemic. The problem is, regular wipes are not biodegradable and add to the garbage problem of the world.

But not these True Biodegradable Sanitizing Wipes. Each wipe can kill up to 99% of germs on contact surfaces like your cellphone or tables and door knobs. Yet, they are biodegradable. How awesome!

And since they use plant-based materials, you can use them on your hands, too.

True Natural Bath Products at Home

We got to try some of the natural bath products by True.

True 100% Natural Facial Wash

Achi Shawna, at 12 years old, is already experiencing some hormonal changes, which can be seen on her skin. She has to use something on her face other than just water.

So she is now using their natural facial wash. I may have to bring her to derma for a deep facial cleaning though.

True 100% Natural Feminine Wash

Personally, I am really concerned with what I use down there. Because of the opening, whatever we use will most likely enter our bodies easily.

That is why I even use a natural laundry detergent to wash our underwear. So I am happy to use the True 100% Natural Feminine Wash that contains guava. Guava leaves are a natural antiseptic and these are usually boiled for the hot bath of moms who just gave birth.

I can feel that it is mild and gentle for use twice a day. Plus, it has a natural fragrance that doesn’t interfere with the natural feminine scent.

True Kids 100% Natural Shampoo + Body Wash

I tried washing Shane’s hair and body with the True Kids 100% Natural Shampoo + Body Wash. But now, we just use it for her body.

She tends to get a sweaty head nowadays because it is already summertime and it doesn’t quite remove the smell. So, I am using a different brand on her hair.

But do watch out because True is reformulating their natural shampoo and body wash for kids. It’s coming out in the market next month.

I will get the regular shampoo and conditioner next. For me, natural bath products are still the safest to use — especially the ones for the hair.
