Buriti Oil
Buriti oil is a precious oil extracted from the fruit of the buriti palm, a tree native to Brazil. It has been used for centuries by indigenous tribes in the Amazon rainforest as a natural remedy for various skin ailments. Buriti oil is rich in antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and vitamin E, making it a potent ingredient in many skincare products.
One of the most notable benefits of buriti oil is its ability to protect the skin from harmful UV rays. Buriti oil contains high levels of beta-carotene, a natural pigment that gives it its bright orange color. Beta-carotene is a powerful antioxidant that helps to neutralize free radicals and prevent oxidative damage to the skin. It also helps to boost the skin's natural sun protection, making it an excellent ingredient for sunscreen products.
In addition to its sun protection benefits, buriti oil is also known for its anti-inflammatory properties. It can help to soothe and calm irritated skin, making it an excellent ingredient for people with sensitive skin. Buriti oil also helps to promote healthy skin cell growth, which can help to improve the overall appearance and texture of the skin.
Buriti oil is also deeply moisturizing and can help to hydrate dry, flaky skin. Its high concentration of essential fatty acids helps to strengthen the skin's natural barrier and prevent moisture loss. This makes it an excellent ingredient for people with dry or mature skin.
BOTANICAL NAME: Mauritia flexuosa
EXTRACTION: Cold pressed
DESCRIPTION: The Buriti Tree (Tree of Life) is a large palm tree with sweet, brown, scaly fruits that grows in the swampy areas in the Amazon River Basin. The oil is extracted from the fruit pulp and is rich in essential fatty acids and carotenoids. It is yellow to a transparent red in colour and has very little scent.
KEY COMPONENTS:
- Beta-carotene: This is a powerful antioxidant that gives buriti oil its bright orange color. Beta-carotene is converted into vitamin A in the body, which is essential for healthy skin and eyes.
- Vitamin E: Buriti oil contains high levels of vitamin E, a potent antioxidant that helps to neutralize free radicals and protect the skin from damage caused by environmental stressors such as pollution and UV radiation.
- Polyphenols: These are a group of antioxidants found in plants that help to protect against UV damage and reduce inflammation in the skin. Buriti oil is a rich source of polyphenols, which help to improve the overall health and appearance of the skin.

Sea Buckthorn
Sea Buckthorn, also known as Hippophae rhamnoides, is a type of shrub that grows in coastal regions of Asia and Europe. This plant has been used for centuries for its medicinal properties, and its fruit and oil have recently gained popularity in the world of skincare due to their numerous benefits.
Sea Buckthorn oil is extracted from the fruit and seeds of the plant, and it is rich in vitamins A, C, and E, as well as essential fatty acids like omega-3, 6, 7, and 9. These nutrients work together to provide a host of benefits for the skin, making it an excellent ingredient for skincare products.
One of the most significant benefits of Sea Buckthorn oil is its ability to hydrate and nourish the skin. It penetrates deep into the layers of the skin, helping to moisturize and protect it from environmental stressors like UV rays and pollution. This makes it an excellent ingredient for people with dry or sensitive skin.
Sea Buckthorn oil is also known for its anti-inflammatory properties, which make it effective in reducing redness and inflammation in the skin. It can also help to soothe and heal irritated skin, making it a great ingredient for people with acne-prone skin.
Another benefit of Sea Buckthorn oil is its ability to promote collagen production in the skin. Collagen is a protein that gives the skin its elasticity and firmness, and as we age, our bodies produce less of it. By promoting collagen production, Sea Buckthorn oil can help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, making it a valuable ingredient in anti-aging skincare products.
In addition to its hydrating, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging benefits, Sea Buckthorn oil is also a powerful antioxidant. Antioxidants help to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals, which can lead to premature aging and other skin concerns. This makes Sea Buckthorn oil an excellent ingredient for people looking to protect their skin from environmental damage.
Overall, Sea Buckthorn is a highly beneficial ingredient for skincare products, thanks to its hydrating, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging, and antioxidant properties. Whether you have dry, sensitive, or acne-prone skin, incorporating Sea Buckthorn oil into your skincare routine can help to nourish and protect your skin, leaving it looking and feeling its best.
BOTANICAL NAME: Hippophae rhamnoides

Sea buckthorn oil has very high levels of carotenes to protect skin. Soothing essential fatty acids and phytosterols support collagen production. Sea buckthorn oil is an unsurpassed source of vitamins A and E, carotenes and flavonoids.

FOUND IN: Reflector SPF 30 Facial Sun ProtectionShea Butter
Shea butter is a popular ingredient in skin care products due to its nourishing and moisturizing properties. Derived from the nuts of the shea tree, shea butter is rich in fatty acids and antioxidants, making it an excellent choice for dry or damaged skin.
But did you know that shea butter can also provide natural sun protection? While shea butter alone is not enough to protect your skin from harmful UV rays, it can be used as a complementary ingredient in sunscreens or as a post-sun treatment to soothe and repair sun-damaged skin.
Shea butter contains a high concentration of vitamin E, which has been shown to have some UV-protective effects. Additionally, the fatty acids in shea butter can help to create a barrier on your skin, which can help to prevent moisture loss and protect your skin from environmental stressors, including sun damage.
When used in combination with other natural ingredients such as zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, shea butter can help to enhance the sun protection provided by a sunscreen. And because shea butter is a natural ingredient, it is gentle on your skin and less likely to cause irritation or allergic reactions.
After sun exposure, shea butter can also help to soothe and repair sun-damaged skin. Its anti-inflammatory properties can reduce redness and inflammation, while its moisturizing effects can help to prevent peeling and promote faster healing.
Overall, shea butter is an excellent ingredient to include in your skin care routine, especially if you are looking for natural sun protection or after-sun care. Look for products that contain shea butter and other natural ingredients for the best results.
BOTANICAL NAME: Butyrospermum parkii
EXTRACTION: Mechanical extraction

- Cinnamic acid: Shea butter contains cinnamic acid, which has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

Rice Bran Oil
Rice bran oil is a popular ingredient in skincare products due to its numerous benefits for the skin. This oil is extracted from the outer layer of rice grains, which is rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and other beneficial compounds that can nourish and protect the skin.
One of the key benefits of rice bran oil for skin care is its ability to moisturize and hydrate the skin. This oil contains a high concentration of fatty acids, including oleic acid, linoleic acid, and palmitic acid, which can help to improve the skin's barrier function and prevent moisture loss. As a result, rice bran oil can help to soothe dry, rough, and flaky skin, leaving it feeling soft, smooth, and supple.
Rice bran oil is also a great ingredient for sun protection. This oil contains natural antioxidants, including vitamin E and gamma-oryzanol, which can help to protect the skin from damage caused by UV radiation. When applied topically, these antioxidants can help to neutralize free radicals and prevent them from damaging the skin's cells, which can lead to premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and other skin problems.
Additionally, rice bran oil has a high SPF value of around 4-6, which makes it a natural sunblock. While this level of protection is not sufficient for prolonged exposure to the sun, it can be helpful for everyday activities such as running errands or taking a short walk outside.
Rice bran oil is a versatile ingredient that offers many benefits for the skin, including moisturizing, hydrating, and protecting against sun damage. If you are looking for a natural and effective ingredient for your skincare routine, consider incorporating rice bran oil into your daily regimen.

Feels like I'm Wearing nothing sunscreen
Very light. I couldn't tell I had it on.
Facial sunscreen
I can not use shelf products with many chemicals, this facial sunscreen is perfect easy to use and feels great not greasy and I don't break out. Love it!
Love it for excellent coverage!
Feels moisturizing and good coverage, I have never got burned using this and always take it on vacation, especially as it’s reef safe.
Best sunscreen ever
Will never use any other sunscreen again, this is amazing skincare and sunscreen in one tube. Thank you Cocoon for another amazing product ❤️❤️
Facial Sunscreen Improved!
As someone who must wear sunscreen, I really like this product. I was not enamoured of the bottle it used to come in, as it didn't dispense well at all, so I would transfer it to a small jar. The new packaging in the tube is much better, and easier to apply. The only thing I'd suggest is that the lid be larger so that the tube would stand up on it. (I know that would require a little more plastic, but it would be a lot easier to store.)
Best Sunscreen!
I love this sunscreen. It's light and layers on well. There is a slight white tinge, but it is much less than in other natural sunscreens I've tried and disappears very quickly. This is already the second time I've purchased it and it is definitely my go-to facial sunscreen!
SPF 30 Sunscreen
I feel this product leaves a bit of a white cast on my skin and is a little hard to blend because of its thickness. I prefer a smoother, tinted sunscreen. So I’ve given it to my husband and he thinks its just fine. He’s not one for skincare so this product provides both moisture and protection for him.
Great sunblock
I have used this product for a few years and always find it effective, easy to apply and wear under makeup.

Great facial sun protection
Love this so far! Nice and light, doesn't leave a white trace, blends in to your skin easily and doesn't bother my sensitive skin
Best sunscreen for highly sensitive skin!
I brought this item for my grandma who has had trouble with finding the right sunscreen for her sensitive skin. She says this The Reflector SPF 30 Facial Sun Protection cream has worked better than any other she has tried. Even the ones a dermatologist advised her to use has not worked as well as this cream! I’m so happy to have found this for her ❤️ Thank you, Cocoon Company, if I could star product more than 5 I would!
No reaction whatsoever
My skin is very picky and won't let me wear most sunscreens, so I was more than delighted to find that this one works well and causes no reactions whatsoever.
Long lasting and non greasy
Excellent product. Easy to apply and lasts a long time.
Love it
This was my second order of this sunscreen. When I had it couple years ago it was much thicker. Now consistency is perfect for my liking and no more white film on the face.
Best Sunscreen!
Love this product. And I love the whole company! They cannot disappoint me at all. Clean, positive and guilt-free products! Can't go wrong with Cocoon.
Very drying
My skin tends to be on the dry side. So I did try adding after my moisturizer and along with my moisturizer like it was recommended, however my face felt so dry, like it was ******* the moisturizer out of my face. This dry feeling didn’t get bag better throughout the day, it made my face feel tight. I love all of cocoon apothecary products, but I would not order again.
Cocoon Apothecary
Thank you for the review Christina. We are sorry to hear this has made your face feel dry and tight, even when combined with your moisturizer. Another option to try would be adding an oil serum to the sunscreen before application. This would improve the glide and also make it less drying upon application. We do hope this may help you enjoy the rest of the product.
Great coverage
I love the new packaging - much easier to travel with and store. The ingredients seem easier to apply now as well. Works very well on my sensitive skin. Another wonderful product from Cocoon!
Reflector SPF 30 Facial Sun Protection
I've only used your SPF 30 Reflector 4 time so far I like the protection it gives my face but love the feel of it not greasy and applies and rubs in easy.Yes I recommend to my friends and would purchase it again.
No White Residue!
I really like this product! I've tried many other sunscreens with zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, and they've always left a white residue on my face. This product spreads well, absorbs well, and doesn't leave any white residue. I love the consistency and the fact it doesn't leave me looking ***** and white. It's my new go-to sunscreen!!
Amazing product
Love the new tube. It’s an amazing product, loving the sunshine even more with this protection. Wish they made one for the body ❤️❤️
