Skin rebels when it's abused by the sun, the wind and the little stresses of everyday life. It gets dry and feels itchy. You can see the flakes. Sometimes they come in patches. Abused skin does not have the shine that comes with moist and healthy skin and is more likely to wrinkle with age. At Coco and Duckie, we carry an assortment of apothecary products to stop your skin from rebelling. One brand we offer is called Ahava. It uses Dead Sea minerals to rejuvenate your skin and keep it soft.
About the Dead Sea
The Dead Sea is a saltwater lake that lies between Jordan and Israel in the Mediterranean region. One reason it’s called the Dead Sea is because the saline content is so high that it’s difficult for fish and marine mammals to live in it. The water and shoreline have a high concentration of salt and other minerals that are good for the skin, making the Dead Sea the largest natural spa in the world. Kings and queens of ancient times used the Dead Sea as a personal spa to nourish their skin and enhance their beauty. Ahava uses these same Dead Sea mineral deposits to moisturize the skin and create a healthier complexion. The nice part is that you don’t have to be royalty to use these products.
What’s Available?
Ahava combines Dead Sea minerals with aloe vera, shea butter, coconut and other ingredients to soothe and smooth the skin. You can order these products online through our Coco and Duckie apothecary or pick them up in our store. Here are some of our favorites:
