Today is National Coffee day, and we are celebrating the best way we know how! Cozying up with a rich and nutritious Coconut and Kokoleka Mocha, a good magazine, and our favorite Fall face mask, of course! We got carried away with the buzz of Summer this year and can’t believe last week marked the official start of Fall!
It’s a time of year when new routines naturally start to form. You might feel drawn to do a gentle cleanse or spend the day organizing your closet. Clearing space for yourself both physically and mentally will allow you to connect more deeply with the energy of this season. Fall is the season of creativity.
Today we are sharing a cozy cup of goodness inspired by the coconut, cacao, coffee and ginger ingredients that make up our Kokoleka Ritual Dessert Mask. This rich and decadent mask is perfect for the time of year when the days get cooler and shorter. Kokoleka is a great 'reset button' for the skin, helping to purify and detoxify without over drying the complexion. Once activated with water, Kokoleka will quickly begin to feed your skin the most potent and exquisite blend of nutrients at a very fast rate, balancing hydration and mineral levels and increasing enzyme activity. Kokoleka is an advanced formula that contains Molokai black sea salt with activated coconut charcoal, which will help to draw out impurities and detoxify the skin while replenishing it with the remineralization properties from Bohemian black fango clay. Kokoleka is superfood for the skin, and skin-food for the soul.
Organic coconut milk helps to soften and moisturize the skin and contains skin loving vitamin A and C, calcium, iron and natural proteins. Coconut milk helps to soothe irritated skin and the natural fatty acids help to clarify and tone the skin.
Coffee bean/fruit oil is rich in essential fatty acids antioxidants that help to tonify and preserve the youth of the skin. This beauty will also help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improves overall texture and tone of the skin.
Organic cacao powder is full of vitamins and minerals such as Vitamin C, Omega fatty acids and magnesium, cacao helps to increase blood flow and promote healing on a cellular level. Cacao is also a rich source of antioxidants, which helps to protect the skin from free radical damage.
Ginger CO2 is fantastic for increasing circulation and lymph stagnation. It is both clarifying and detoxifying, and helps to balance oil. Ginger also helps to warm the tissues as it speeds micro circulation- hello glow!
Sea Salt brings a balance of purification while introducing an abundance of minerals to the skin.
