This week is National Chocolate Week, who knew there was such a thing?
Unfortunately every week is chocolate week for me, I find it so comforting, so calming, so healing.
Obviously eating too much of it is not good for you, not healing at all! It makes you fat and wreaks havoc on your blood sugar, leaving you desperate and craving. So today my chocolate fix came from Zuzka Natural Beauty`s Cocoa Spa range.
I woke up and applied the Organic Milk Chocolate Cleansing Cream (£20). There is something about smearing pale chocolate all over the face first thing in the morning that is ultimately decadent.
It smells like chocolate mousse and it seeps into the skin deliciously. It is velvet smooth. The smell is said to release serotonin in the brain.
The cream also contains coconut butter and nut oils to melt away impurities. It is also very effective cleanser. I love its texture and its chocolaty-ness.
They also have an organic White Chocolate Revitalizing Cream (£36.99), which contains organic orange and Frankincense essential oil. This is a fluffy whipped cream that in the pot smells like a pot of chocolate. On the skin you smell the citrus. It is quite rich and super hydrating. I personally think it is too thick for the face but perfect for the body. How thick you like your moisturiser is a very personal thing between you and how absorbent your skin is.
The vitamins and minerals give your skin a super clean glow.
The Cocoa Spa Body Butter (£24.99), which contains Cocoa Butter and Shea Butter leaves the skin super soft. It contains lemon and vanilla essential oils so the smell is heavenly and the feel is gorgeous.
