To be honest, I suffer from chronic dry skin that starts flaking as soon as the weather gets colder (so basically from November to May). If you don’t remember to moisturize your body immediately after showering, your skin will be sore the next day.
I’ve tried many different types of conventional moisturizers, but nothing is more frustrating than having liquid explode in your bag or get lotion under your nails. Should I buy 5 different moisturizers for my body and feet? What a waste of plastic (and money).
If you’re anything like me, you absolutely have to try Noparella’s Flor de Mayo Moisturizing Botanical Bar!
bar
Noparella currently carries two moisturizing bars, Original and Flor de Mayo. Before I tried Flor de Mayo, I didn’t even know lotion bars existed. I thought it would be difficult to use.
I’ve been using the product for a few weeks now and my noparella moisturizing bar literally melt in my skin like butter.used for hydration The entire My body after showering couldn’t be more impressed, right down to the cuticles! increase.
Plus, I love the feel and smell of the product. Jasmine her oil is so soothing and applying a bar has become one of my favorite parts of my routine her to be given as a gift). The bars are also very long lasting. I soon learned that even a little goes a long way, and I feel like I haven’t even made a dent in the Flor de Mayo bar.

For me as a consumer, ingredients are very important. The Noparella team (including founder Sandra Velázquez) is inspired by the beauty and richness of Mexico and the Nopal he cacti. They are committed to making high end products with clean ingredients.
Nopalera is transparent about the natural ingredients in their Flor de Mayo bars, which they show on their packaging and on their website. The bars are handcrafted, vegan, and contain no synthetic dyes or fragrances.
One of the key ingredients is nopal oil (prickly pear oil), obtained from the seeds of the cactus fruit. Super high in omega fatty acids, amino acids, and vitamins E and K, Nopal Oil promotes healthy, glowing skin, collagen production, and elasticity. It has been used for centuries, originating in Mexico with the Aztecs and Mayans. For generations, women have used it for food, skin care, and hair health.
Other key ingredients include jasmine essential oil (antibacterial properties, scar reduction, mood lift and natural aphrodisiac) and pink clay (reduces irritation, inflammation, and the “sticky” feeling of many moisturizers). My Nopalera bar provided an unexpected opportunity to learn about Mexican culture and traditional, natural ingredients.
no water, no plastic
One of the things I love about this product is the way it’s packaged. I hate it when products arrive in the mail wrapped in layers of useless plastic that are ready to be thrown away. Inside the box were the bars in fancy reusable tins.
All packaging is recyclable or reusable and aesthetically pleasing at the same time. The can is very portable and can be tucked inside a handbag or tote without worrying about spills or the lotion exploding. So I can’t wait to bring this product to Scotland next week!
Conclusion
I think it’s no exaggeration to say that I’m obsessed with moisturizing bars.good bye, Lotion with a nasty pump that spills everywhere!) Noparella has a lot of soaps and exfoliants too, so I’m super excited to try more products from the exciting brand. !
