Hello, my dear eco-friends! 🌿 I’m Olena, 22 years old, and I’m passionate about all things eco-friendly and sustainable. Today, I want to introduce you to a brand that has become a true gem for those who care about natural cosmetics and the environment – Niyok!
Niyok’s Story
Niyok was founded by two friends from Berlin who realized that most of the cosmetics on the market contain tons of plastic and harmful chemicals. And honestly, who wants to brush their teeth with a toothpaste that sounds like it was concocted by a mad scientist? 🧪 They decided to create something simple, natural, and free of unnecessary additives – and that’s how Niyok was born! Their goal is to redefine personal care by using only natural ingredients and eco-friendly packaging.
The Brand’s Mission
Niyok's mission is to create cosmetics that are not harmful to us or the planet. All of their products are vegan, organic, and certified by COSMOS Natural. And what’s even more important – no plastic packaging! They strive to ensure that every product they make is fully biodegradable and environmentally safe.
What Sets Niyok Apart from Other Brands?
- Ingredients
All Niyok products are made from natural ingredients. They are organically certified, meaning they are grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. You know exactly what you’re putting on your skin or hair – no hidden chemicals or suspicious additives.
- Packaging
No plastic – all packaging is eco-friendly, recyclable, or even compostable. It’s a fantastic find for anyone looking to reduce their environmental impact. Plus, the minimalist, stylish packaging will look great in your bathroom.
- Multifunctionality
Niyok’s products serve more than one purpose. Their solid shampoos, for instance, not only cleanse your hair but also act as conditioners. The natural oils nourish your hair, so it looks healthy and shiny without needing extra products.
- Care for Sensitive Skin
All Niyok products are hypoallergenic and suitable for sensitive skin. With no artificial fragrances or dyes, these products are safe for anyone looking to avoid irritation or other unpleasant reactions caused by conventional cosmetics.
- Resource Saving
Solid products last much longer than liquid ones, so you’re not only saving money, but also buying products less often, which reduces waste. Another win for the planet!
- Affordability
Despite all the benefits, Niyok offers their products at an affordable price. It’s not luxury cosmetics that drain your wallet – it’s a democratic choice for everyone who wants to take care of their health and the environment.
My Experience with Niyok
My first purchase was the coconut oil toothpaste. The toothpaste has a pleasant, gentle flavor, and what’s important to me – it’s fluoride-free. After brushing, my teeth feel smooth, and the freshness lasts without that overwhelming menthol punch you get from other toothpastes.
Next up, I tried their solid shampoo. At first, it was a bit unusual, but after a few uses, my hair became shinier, softer, and more vibrant. What I love is that it acts as a 2-in-1 – shampoo and conditioner in one bar. It saves time, space in my bathroom, and, honestly, a bit of money too.
I also tried their lip balm, and let me tell you, it’s a game-changer. You know how it feels when your lips turn into the Sahara desert in winter? This balm is like a mini oasis! It absorbs quickly, doesn’t leave a greasy film, and keeps your lips hydrated for hours. Even in freezing weather, my lips stayed soft and smooth.
However, I did have some issues with the deodorant. While it has a nice, natural scent and applies easily, it didn’t always keep up on more active days (like after a workout). But for everyday use, it’s a great option, especially if you’re looking for a natural product without harsh chemicals.
My Sincere Advice for You!
If you haven’t tried solid products or natural cosmetics yet, start with Niyok. Give yourself time to get used to the new formats – you won’t regret it! And here’s a pro tip: if solid shampoos feel a bit tricky, try rubbing it between your hands first before applying to your hair – it lathers up more easily that way. And remember, every little eco-friendly step you take is a big win for the planet! 🌿
