Our Skin Care Starter Kit for normal to dry skin contains travel/trial size bottles of our cleanser, toner, and cream.
PETAL PURITY MILK CLEANSER
Our milk cleanser is made from a natural emulsion of plant-based oils and water. It is designed to cleanse the skin gently without causing it to lose moisture or its natural oils and uses emollients instead of foaming agents to remove dirt and grime. Petal Purity Milk Cleanser contains coconut oil, which is high in purifying lauric acid, as well as sweet almond oil for its skin-softening fatty acids, vitamin E and squalene. This formula is ideal for dry, sensitive skin and contains the calming floral terpenes of lavender and geranium (pelargonium).
ROSE DEW FACIAL TONER
Rose Dew is a certified organic toner that is primarily rose water, a potent substance that is oftentimes underestimated due to its simplicity but it is one of the oldest beauty ingredients for a reason. It contains terpenes that have a soothing, cooling effect on the skin and polyphenol antioxidants to nourish and rejuvenate. Moreover, rose water contains monosaccharides that help sustain hydration in the skin in addition to providing additional antioxidant power. It is a lovely addition to a dry or sensitive skincare routine.
ROSEY CHEEKS FACIAL CREAM
A nourishing facial cream that harnesses the therapeutic power of nature to soften, nourish, and rejuvenate skin. Made with organic oils carefully chosen for their extraordinary ability to keep skin smooth, firm and radiant. This non-greasy formula absorbs nicely into the skin and can be used both day and night.

BOTANICAL NAME: Prunus (the Latin name for Plum Tree) amygdalus (from names of the parents) dulcis
EXTRACTION: Cold pressed
DESCRIPTION: The Almond tree is native to the Mediterranean climate region of the Middle East, Indian subcontinent and North America. The Almond tree is believed to have been one of the earliest domesticated fruit trees, dating back as early as 3,000 BC. Nestled in the tree’s green, fuzzy, apricot-like fruit is the almond nut. When pressed, the almond produces a golden, slightly viscous liquid with a mild marzipan scent. It boasts a host of healing properties as it contains healthy fats, fiber, phytochemicals, vitamins and minerals. Due to its high oleic acid content, this allows the oil to penetrate deeper into skin, providing greater nourishment and better results when used.
KEY COMPONENTS: Oleic acid, linoleic acid, squalane, tocopherol, and phytosterols (sitosterol, campesterol and stigmasterol)

Rosehip Oil

Rosehip oil is a natural oil derived from the seeds of the wild rose bush. It is widely known for its skin care benefits and has been used for centuries by indigenous people in Chile, where the plant is native. Rosehip oil contains a variety of beneficial components, such as vitamins A, C, and E, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants, making it a popular ingredient in many skincare products.
One of the primary benefits of rosehip oil is its ability to deeply moisturize the skin. Its high concentration of fatty acids helps to keep the skin hydrated, plump, and smooth. Additionally, the oil has anti-inflammatory properties that can help to reduce redness and inflammation, making it particularly beneficial for those with sensitive skin or conditions such as rosacea.
Another benefit of rosehip oil is its ability to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The vitamin A in the oil helps to promote cell turnover, which can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time. Additionally, the oil contains vitamin C, which can help to brighten the skin and improve its overall texture.
Rosehip oil is also effective in reducing the appearance of scars and hyperpigmentation. The oil contains compounds that can help to reduce the production of melanin, which is responsible for dark spots and discoloration. Additionally, the oil's high concentration of antioxidants can help to protect the skin from further damage and promote healing.
When using rosehip oil in your skincare routine, it's important to look for a high-quality, cold-pressed oil that hasn't been exposed to high temperatures or chemicals. This will ensure that the oil retains all of its beneficial properties.
Overall, rosehip oil is a versatile and effective ingredient in skincare products. Its ability to deeply moisturize, reduce inflammation, and improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars makes it a popular choice for those looking to improve the health and appearance of their skin.
BOTANICAL NAME: Rosa canina (of dogs: Dog Rose)
EXTRACTION: Cold pressed
DESCRIPTION: Rosehip oil is pressed from the seeds of the rose fruit, also referred to as "hips." The rose hips harvested for Cocoon products are from the rosa canina species which is native to Europe, northwest Africa and western Asia. Rosehip oil has been used for centuries to sooth skin, and it is thought that its use dates back to Ancient Egypt. Rosehip oil is obtained through cold pressing and is rich in essential fatty acids including omega 3 - alpha linolenic acid. These fatty acids are anti-inflammatory and help to carry nutrients deep into layers of the dermis. This oil has a high carotenoid content which protects the skin, and also contains tretinoin which is an anti-aging, regenerative bioactive that is suitable for acne as well as diminishes fine wrinkles. The oil is pale yellow to deep golden in colour and and has a light vegetable aroma.
KEY COMPONENTS: Linolenic and linoleic acids

Shea 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
DESCRIPTION: The Shea tree, or the Vitellaria paradoxa, is native to the drier parts of west and Central Africa. This tree produces a fruit from which the butter is extracted. This butter has been used since ancient times for sun protection.
KEY COMPONENTS:
- Vitamin E: Shea butter contains high levels of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that can help protect the skin from damage caused by environmental stressors such as UV radiation, pollution, and cigarette smoke.
- Vitamin A: Shea butter is also rich in vitamin A, another antioxidant that helps protect the skin against free radicals and environmental damage.
- Cinnamic acid: Shea butter contains cinnamic acid, which has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.
- Oleic acid: Oleic acid is a monounsaturated fatty acid that is found in high levels in shea butter. It has been shown to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

Perfect for travel
I love these products and have used them for years. I recently purchased the travel/trial size so I’d wouldn’t have to be bothered about decanting my favs into smaller containers myself. We were gone for a month and I still have product left in the travel sized bottles! Highly recommend for anyone travelling especially by air since they meet the TSA size criteria.

Travel size
Perfect to slip into my suitcase.

Perfect Travel Set
I love these products individually but together they make the perfect skin care travel set. This is a great choice for travel or for people who would like to try a variety of Cocoon Apothecary products. These are some of my favourites!

The Best For Travel
The perfect size for travel and it lasts about 3 weeks! LOVE

Cocoon rosy facial products
Very impressed. Will see you soon for more!

Great products
I bought this for my daughter who loves everything you sell she ran out and was waiting til her husbands gift but I felt no woman should have dry face because she’s waiting for her gift so I bought this to tide her over and she was so happy when she received it. That to me says it all. I too love your products.

Perfect for travel
I have used these myself over the years when travelling. Love the products and the mini containers. My most recent purchase of three sets made for great little gifts for my daughters and daughter-in-law.

Skin care starter kit
I tried the starter kit and I loved it. I purchased the larger size.

Love the products
Great service and wonderful products! Will keep buying!

Wow oh wow
Let me just tell you not only do these products smell amazing they also work! In just two weeks my skin was looking so much healthier and clearer!
Cocoon Apothecary
Wow oh wow, we just love hearing this! Thank you for your support!

Skin care starter- normal to dry
I absolutely love the products and will purchase again. I believe it’s important to support local businesses that are socially and environmentally conscious.

Skin care starter kit
Smells and feels incredible. Likely to buy full sizes when finished the kit

Excellent products
I will be purchasing full size of each skin care product. Thanks

Gift for a friend
After raving about these products, I bought some for a friend who loves them too! Game changers - especially for those over 40 with tempermental skin!

First Time Customer
I was recommended this brand by many people after I asked my Instagram followers for suggestions on skincare to support local/small businesses. I was amazed by this great mini bundle! Delivery was quick (and I appreciate the free Guelph delivery) and packaging is adorable. Each product left me very satisfied and happy to support a local business. I’m excited to feature this kit in an upcoming review on my page! Overall very happy and excited to buy some full size products ❤️

Excellent products
Experience with the products has been very positive. Will definitely continue to use and would highly recommend to others.

Fantastic to try before committing to the larger size. So far my skin has enjoyed it, my skin is very sensitive and it’s hard to find skin care that works for me. The moisturiser can feel a bit tacky, so may try other ones, but at least it is only a small size to get through!

Skin Care Starter Kit
My skin feels so smooth and refreshed after using it!

I have used these for travel for years (broke one so just had to replace the set). Can’t be without!
Love, love them!

Trial size to try
I bought the trial/travel size to try the skin care for normal to dry skin and after 2 weeks I am so happy that I will order the full size. My skin feels very clean and light and softer than it has ever been.
