Sustainably sourced from the Dominican Republic and Columbia, this helps support organic growers and ensures farmers are paid a fair price. Full of buttery goodness, this natural butter glides onto the skin, melting at body temperature to leave you feeling silky smooth. It’s no secret that when it comes to chocolate a little bit of what you fancy does you good, so take ten minutes today to look after yourself and feel body positive.
The Midas touch
A soak with a creamy Golden Egg will quench your skin, while golden lustre brightens your day. This opulent bath bomb melt will crack even the hardest of eggs with its beautifully soft butters and oils. Sunny wild orange takes you to golden shores, while rich cocoa butter satisfies the fiercest of chocolate cravings.
Run the ultimate chocolate orange bath.
If bubbles are more your bag, pop a Lucky Carrot in your basket instead. Let the tap run over this bubble bar until mounds of fluffy, rabbit-tail bubbles appear. Put down the sweetie bag and pick up a ticket to wonderland, as uplifting, lemon myrtle, bergamot and buchu oils envelop you in comforting scent.
Soften up well
Whipstick lip balm is perfect for hydrating the skin thanks to a blend of rich butters and oils that will leave your lips feeling beautifully soft and kissable. With lashings of cocoa absolute, Fair Trade vanilla and tangerine oil, you’ll enjoy the indulgent scent of chocolate orange.
Let’s face it
When your skin is crying out for some tender loving care, reward it with a chocolate Cupcake face mask. Full of absorbent rhassoul mud and cocoa powder, this mask helps to deeply cleanse the pores and leave your skin feeling bright and refreshed. Linseed and cocoa butter soften and hydrate, while fresh mint stimulates blood flow. Glide over your skin, inhale the bittersweet cocoa scent and leave the mask to work its magic for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove with warm water and feel your skin glow.
Mocha, chocca, latte, yaya
Cup O’ Coffee is the invigorating, exfoliating and stimulating wake-up call that your skin deserves. Ditch the mug and pick up a pot of this roasted cocoa and coffee body and face mask. Vetivert and coriander make for an intoxicating concoction you won’t want to take off, while coffee grinds help to gently exfoliate and stimulate the skin. Get hot and steamy in the shower afterwards and enjoy the scent of freshly brewed coffee. Your skin will be left feeling revived and ready for whatever the day throws at it!
One to share
From movie nights to chocolate fountains, there are some things which are more fun when shared. Carry on the pamper session with a night in with someone special and practise your shoulder and back massage techniques using Soft Coeur, a sultry and softening massage bar packed full of almond oil, cocoa butter, shea butter and honey. Not only will you smell good enough to eat, but your skin will feel hydrated and radiant.
