Cocos is a Ukrainian cosmetic brand that offers a wide range of high-quality, effective, handmade skincare products based on two natural ingredients – coconut oil and soap root extract. Among its products, there are scrub soaps that will keep your skin clean, soft and silky smooth all day long. They are a great alternative to scrubs and chemical exfoliants that may be too rough for sensitive skin.
Exfoliation is an important part of a skincare routine. It involves the removal of dead skin cells from the skin surface, which makes the skin smooth and stimulates its renewal. There are two main types of exfoliation: mechanical (physically scrubbing the skin with an abrasive, such as micro-beads, sugar or salt crystals, ground coffee, crushed almond shells or apricot kernel, pumice, etc.) or chemical (loosening dead cells with acids or enzymes).
Scrub soaps by Cocos are designed for delicate mechanical exfoliation. They are free of harsh abrasives, so they won’t scratch or irritate even overly sensitive skin. The manufacturers offers several exfoliating soap bars for you to choose from, including coffee scrub soap, grape seed & honey scrub soap, and healing herbs & honey scrub soap.
All Cocos soaps are handmade with high-quality natural ingredients (carrier oils, essential oils, herbal extracts, etc.). They do not contain SLS/SLES and other harsh surfactants, parabens, artificial dyes and fragrance, or any other ingredients that can irritate the skin. Each soap bar is based on saponified vegetable oils (coconut oil, palm oil, castor oil) that delicately cleanse the skin without making it feel dry and tight. Oils make the skin softer and smoother, as well as help to keep it hydrated.
Exfoliating soap bars by Cocos are formulated with gentle abrasives that effectively remove dead skin sells, dirt, grime and excess sebum from the skin surface, but don’t scratch or irritate the skin. For example, grape seed & honey soap contains grape seed powder, coffee soap is formulated with ground coffee, and healing herbs & honey soap is made with finely ground dried herbs (peppermint, oregano, eucalyptus, bay laurel, nettle, chamomile, thyme, plantain, sage, and marigold). Unlike sugar and salt crystals that may irritate or scratch very sensitive skin, these exfoliating agents are completely safe, especially dried herbs.
Alongside exfoliants, Cocos scrub soaps contain other natural ingredients that nourish and moisturise the skin. For example, grape seed & honey soap and healing herbs & honey soap are made with honey. Honey is mainly composed of fructose and glucose, but it also contains other carbohydrates, as well as a number of vitamins (B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, C) and minerals (calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium and zinc). It is used in cosmetic production due to its nourishing and antiseptic properties. Honey moisturises and nourishes the skin, makes it soft and supple, relieves irritation and inflammation, eliminates pathogenic microbes, speeds up the healing of minor skin injuries, and makes the skin look healthy and glowing.
Coffee scrub soap by Cocos is additionally infused with coconut oil, which is one of the most popular oils used in skin and hair care. It is a rich source of fatty acids (palmitic, stearic, linoleic, oleic, lauric, caprylic, myristic) that nourish the skin, make it velvety smooth, and help to lock in moisture. Due to its high saturated fat content, coconut oil is a great natural emollient.
