Go Cocoa!
Summer and winter are a tricky time for your skin. I mean, it seems like the entire season is just one contradiction after another. On one hand, you want your skin to be RADIANT and HYDRATED, but you don’t want that heavy feeling so many over-the-counter lotions and moisturizers give off. Well, we have the answer to this summer skincare conundrum ...
COCOA BUTTER STICKS!
When we tell you all the benefits of cocoa butter, you'll know why you need it, and why it's the MUST-HAVE SUMMER MOISTURIZER for your skin. In fact, cocoa butter has been a skincare ingredient in many skincare products for faces and bodies because of its awesome skin-boosting antioxidants for years. (1)
Now here’s the thing – cocoa butter is NOT always natural, and NOT always helpful. We do have some good news, though. There are 100% ALL-NATURAL PRODUCTS containing the power of NATURAL cocoa butter! And even better – they're EASY-TO-APPLY and SUPER EFFECTIVE!
In this blog we talk about cocoa butter sticks, how they help your skin in the summer, and how you can enjoy HEALTHY and REFRESHED skin all summer long!

The first thing to know is that theobroma oil – the other name for cocoa butter - comes from the cocoa bean. A natural process turns the bean into cocoa butter by way of drying, heating, extracting, and pressing to create the awesome finished product you love. One of the awesome benefits of cocoa butter is that it can boost you with a super important vitamin – Vitamin E.
Vitamin E is not just a key ingredient for your skin, but for your entire body. It can be difficult to provide your skin the necessary vitamins and minerals it needs in the summer, but cocoa butter gives you them, along with the fatty acids you need. It also boosts your skin with much-needed moisture, locking in that moisture to keep your skin from drying. (2)
Cocoa butter is also perfect for summer because it's full of awesome things called phytochemicals. Phytochemicals help you because they protect you from the dangerous effects of the sun’s damaging UV rays, resulting in less aging of your skin. (3)
QUICK TIP: Cocoa butter can help improve the elasticity of your skin, enabling you more radiance when out in the summer sun. Boost the health and natural glow of your skin today with the 100% ALL-NATURAL INGREDIENTS in GARNER’S GARDEN 100% ALL-NATURAL COCOA BUTTER STICKS! (4)
Another great characteristic of cocoa butter that makes it perfect for summer skin? Its smell! In fact, the smell of cocoa butter is refreshing, and a perfect complement to all those sweet summer vibes. It also holds well in water, helping to keep your skin from over-drying during those hot summer nights and days spent in cool indoor air. (5) (6)

Having it in a stick makes it even better when you consider just how effective people claim cocoa butter is at keeping stretch marks away both during pregnancy and after. Cocoa butter is also widely used to help erase the look of scars, and to help make skin look RADIANT when hit by the summer sun and environment. (7)
COCOA YEAH!
Another reason summer is debilitating is because many people have pre-existing conditions that can feel even worse when hit with the summer sun. One great way to combat this is with cocoa butter, which is super effective at working against conditions like dermatitis and eczema, while also countering itchiness.
And if you do suffer from sudden attacks from these pre-existing conditions, cocoa butter can help remedy your skin, providing you with the ability to PROTECT yourself from outdoor irritants that can make your previous problems worse. (8)

Knowing cocoa butter is effective is one thing. Actually using it is something else. Cocoa butter can have many of its amazing benefits neutralized if found with artificial fragrances and chemicals. Many of these extra ingredients can cause your skin to feel irritated, and for you to possibly develop more skin problems over time.
During the summer, you may be styling with lots of ingredients to help improve the look and feel of your skin. Be sure they're ALL-NATURAL when enjoying your cocoa butter to help ensure your skin looks more elastic and radiant when outdoors. (11)
And considering the damage your skin is prone to in the summer, what makes cocoa butter super effective is that it’s an emollient – which enables it to form that barrier of protection over your skin you need and want in hazardous weather. It’s also relaxing on your skin, giving you the antioxidants you need to enjoy healthier and more nourished skin when you go out. (12)
