Give Your Skin (& Your Mood) A Boost With These Tropical Ingredients
March is officially here but as the last weeks of winter drag on and on, we question when spring will ever arrive. We get it. Snow, rain and a lack of vitamin D are bound to get you down. As you count down to spring, some of you may opt for a sunny vacation to lift your woeful winter spirits.
But, if that’s not in your budget this March break, you can always trick your senses into thinking you’re poolside with a pina colada. We suggest boosting your mood (and your complexion) with Eminence Organic Skin Care products that feature vacation-inspired ingredients like coconut and monoi.
According to Psychology Today, "Scents can have positive effects on mood, stress reduction, sleep enhancement and self-confidence." With science on our side, here’s our selection of exotic-scented products to help you get through the last weeks of winter with a smile on your face.
Coconuts
There’s something about the fragrance of coconut that immediately transports you to the beach. Even without the warm ocean breeze flowing through your hair, you can still enjoy the delightful aroma of coconut. In addition to the fact that they smell delicious, coconuts also deliver huge benefits to the skin. Packed full of healthy fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants, you can find this ingredient in an impressive number of our products including our Coconut Firming Body Lotion, Coconut Age Corrective Moisturizer, and our Coconut Cream Masque, just to name a few.
Monoi
You might recognize the name “monoi” from some of our best sellers including our Monoi Age Corrective Night Cream for Face & Neck and our Monoi Age Corrective Exfoliating Cleanser. The word monoi simply means "scented oil" and is made from soaking the petals of Tahitian gardenias (Tiaré flowers) in coconut oil. Talk about a tropical oasis for your senses! When combined, coconut oil and Tahitian gardenias create an exotically fragrant combo that works wonders for your complexion.
Try this Monoi inspired mixology that combines our Monoi Age Corrective Exfoliating Cleanser with our Eight Greens Phyto Masque - Hot.
