YAKA is a popular Ukrainian beauty brand that is known for its all-natural and affordable skincare products. Among the latest additions to its product line are two body butters for smooth and supple skin, Lemon & Bergamot and Vanilla & Coconut. They are formulated with carrier oils and plant extract that nourish the skin and keep it super soft and hydrated.
According to YAKA’s official website, they were the first brand in Ukraine to produce all-natural cosmetics. The company bases its products on time-proven beauty recipes and improves them using high-quality ingredients and the latest scientific achievements in the cosmetic field. By combining tradition with science and taking into account the needs of specific skin and hair types, YAKA creates unique products designed for everyday care.
As of 2019, the brand offers four product lines comprising skin and hair care products: Green Series, Organic Series, Men’s Series, and Cosmetic Series. YAKA’s natural body butters belong to the Cosmetic Series. Suitable for all skin types, they penetrate into the deeper levels of the epidermis, nourishing and hydrating the skin from the inside. As a result, your skin becomes soft, smooth and supple. Let’s take a closer look at natural body butters by YAKA.
Lemon & Bergamot Body Butter
This body butter is great for taking care of dry and sensitive skin, but it is suitable for all skin types. Its key active ingredients are cocoa butter, coconut oil, beeswax, castor oil, olive oil, orange extract, lemon extract, bergamot oil, and lemon oil. The product is free of mineral oil, animal fat, parabens, and synthetic fragrance and dyes that might irritate your skin.
Carrier oils are a rich source of fatty acids, both unsaturated and saturated. They provide a good base for body butters. Oils nourish and moisturise the skin, prevent its dehydration and help to transport other nutrients to the deeper layers of the epidermis.
In addition, each of the oils that can be found in this product has additional beauty benefits. For example, olive oil neutralises the harmful effects of free radicals, helps to protect the skin from UV radiation, prevents dry and flaky skin. Cocoa butter improves skin elasticity, slows down the ageing process, and helps to prevent stretch marks. Coconut oil is one of the best natural moisturisers. In addition, it has sun protective properties like olive oil.
Citrus extracts and essential oils have a toning, refreshing and revitalising effect. They improve skin cell metabolism and regeneration, combat pigmentation and even skin tone, and provide the skin with vitamins. Besides, they give the product a light fruity smell that will boost your mood and charge you with energy for the day.
Vanilla & Coconut Body Butter
This is a rich, yet lightweight skincare product that revitalises dull skin, prevents dehydration and flaking, and reduces pigmentation. The body butter is formulated with a blend of carrier oils (cocoa butter, coconut oil, castor oil, olive oil), beeswax, and vanilla extract. Working together, these natural ingredients take excellent care of the skin. Like the other body butter by YAKA, the product is free of animal ingredients and synthetic compounds.
Carrier oils provide the skin with fatty acids, vitamins and other nutrients, help to lock in moisture, enhance the skin’s firmness and elasticity, make it softer and smoother. Beeswax protects the skin from the environment, as well as prevents dehydration by creating a thin protective layer on the skin surface. Vanilla extract combats pigmentation and evens skin tone.
In addition, vanilla extract and coconut oil give the product a sweet, subtle smell that reminds of warm summer days and beach vacations. The smell is not cloying, and it won’t clash with your perfume or personal care products.
