-

-
Moisturizes dry skin: Lavender essential oil is a natural moisturizer that can help hydrate dry and flaky skin. It can help improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

BOTANICAL NAME: Lavandula (from the Latin word lavo meaning to wash-because of its use in soaps) angustifolia (narrow-leaved)
EXTRACTION: Steam distillation
DESCRIPTION: The lavender plant is a shrub that produces small, purple, fragrant flowers. It is a hardy perennial that is grown in several different climates and countries with the largest producer being France. This herb is steeped in human history, from ancient bathing rituals to traditional wedding bouquets symbolizing devotion and purity. Always used to perfume, to cleanse, and to heal, lavender was also added to smelling salts in Victorian times, and clutched by women in labour for strength and courage. The birth of modern day aromatherapy can be attributed to lavender. Chemist Rene-Maurice Gattefosse (1881-1950), who coined the term "aromatherapy", was in a terrible lab accident that left him with a severely burned arm. He successfully treated it with lavender oil and began a lifelong study of essential oils. Lavender oil contains linalool and linalyl acetate that combine to create soothing properties to calm redness and irritation. The aroma is a clean, herbal, floral.
KEY COMPONENTS: Linalool and linalyl acetate
FOUND IN: CLEANSE - Tea Tree & Aloe, MOISTURIZE - Juniper & Hemp, Petal Purity Facial Cleanser, Petal Purity Exfoliating Facial Cleanser, Touchy Feely Body Lotion, Touchy Feely Hand Soap, Touchy Feely Bubble Bath, Bath Cube - Spruce Flora, Bath Salt - Lavender, Bath Salt - Spruce Flora, Spot Dabber for Acne Prone Skin

Rosemary essential oil is a rich source of antioxidants and has antimicrobial properties, making it an excellent natural ingredient for skin care. It is also known for its ability to improve circulation, which can lead to healthier-looking skin.
Here are some of the skin care benefits of rosemary essential oil:
-

The antioxidants in rosemary essential oil can also help to protect the skin from damage caused by environmental stressors such as pollution and UV rays.
-
Acne-fighting properties: Rosemary essential oil has antimicrobial properties that can help to fight acne-causing bacteria. It also has anti-inflammatory properties, which can help to reduce redness and swelling associated with acne.
-

-
Soothing properties: Rosemary essential oil has a calming effect on the skin and can help to reduce irritation and inflammation. This makes it an excellent natural ingredient for sensitive and reactive skin.
-
Improved circulation: Rosemary essential oil has a stimulating effect on the circulatory system, which can help to improve blood flow to the skin. This can help to improve skin tone and texture, and can also help to reduce the appearance of dark circles under the eyes.
BOTANICAL NAME: Rosmarinus (Latin name ros - dew and marinus - of the sea) officinalis
EXTRACTION: Steam distillation
DESCRIPTION: Rosemary, or Rosmarinus officinalis, is a perennial herb native to the Mediterranean and Asia. The plant itself is a small, hardy, evergreen shrub with fragrant green needles. It produces white, pink, purple, or blue flowers and is relatively hardy in cooler climates. Rosemary was sacred to ancient Egyptians, Romans and Greeks. Myths recount that Virgin Mary spread her blue cloak over a white-flowered rosemary bush, turning the flowers blue, giving this bush the name "Rose of Mary." Rosemary has a rich history and use in Folklore as well as traditional medicine. In the Middle Ages it became known as the love charm as brides, grooms and guests would wear a sprig of rosemary when attending wedding ceremonies. It was also said to improve memory, aid with paralyzation, and treat gout many hundreds of years ago. The essential oil is extracted by steam distilling the small, green leaves. The compound that is derived from this process contains a number of phytochemicals responsible for its therapeutic properties. The essential oil also contains camphor, a chemical compound delivering healing properties such as its ability to heal, soothe and treat many skin conditions. The oil is colourless or pale yellow and has a fresh and herbaceous scent.
KEY COMPONENTS: A-pinene, b-pinene, borneol, camphor, bornyl acetate, camphene, 1, 8-cineole, limonene
FOUND IN: Touchy Feely Bubble Bath, Touchy Feely Body Lotion, Touchy Feely Hand Soap
Green Chemistry
We use the safest and most effective antioxidants, preservatives and emulsifiers to ensure our products nourish, soothe and protect your skin.
Coco Glucocide: A non-ionic surfactant used for foaming and cleansing. It is derived from coconut oil and fruit sugars and is created through a chemical reaction between glucose and coconut oil derived ingredients. Coco-glucoside is used to build viscosity and foaming capacity in soaps. It is very gentle and acts as a cleansing agent without drying out skin.
Citric Acid: Used as a pH adjuster derived from certain fruits or vegetables through fermentation.
Hyaluronic Acid: A polysaccharide found naturally in skin that has the ability to bind large amounts of water to keep skin hydrated. We use a low-molecular hyaluronic acid created through fermentation that is able to penetrate the skin without causing irritation.
Propanediol: A colourless liquid glycol, naturally derived from corn. It functions as both a solvent and humectant.
Sodium Bicarbonate (Baking Soda): Derived from minerals that are refined into calcium carbonate then turned into baking soda. When combined with citric acid, baking soda creates a fizz that both softens the water and distributes the essential oils throughout.
ANTIOXIDANTS
Resveratrol: A source of polyphenol antioxidants derived from knotweed.
Rosemary Leaf Extract & Rosemary CO2: Extract from rosemary leaf that is very high in antioxidants. Keeps our products smelling and feeling as fresh as possible.
Vitamin E (tocopherol): A naturally occurring antioxidant.
EMULSIFIERS
An emulsifier is the ingredient that binds water to oil in order to create an emulsion, which is just a fancy term for cream or lotion. We chose the following ingredients because they are safe, do not separate, and do not leave a sheen on your skin after applying.
Cetearyl Alcohol: A fatty alcohol extracted from coconuts that is very different than denatured alcohol, which is known to dry out skin.
Sodium Cetearyl Sulfate: The sodium salt of sulfur extracted from coconut. Sulphur is an element that exists in all of nature. The term 'no sulfates' is way too broad a term and is based on a lot of misinformation.
Stearic Acid: A fatty acid extracted from plants that acts as a thickening agent and helps to prevent melting in warmer temperatures. Plant fats that are solid at room temperature, such as shea butter, cocoa butter, palm oil or coconut oil, contain high amounts of stearic acid.
Xanthan Gum: A natural food and cosmetic additive used as a binder, emulsion stabilizer and skin conditioning agent. It is a polysaccharide produced from simple sugars using fermentation. It is dried and processed into a powder, when added to water it acts as a thickener.
PRESERVATIVES
The preservatives we use for our lotions, creams, cleansers and toners are sodium levulinate from non-GMO corn, and sodium anisate from basil. Levulinate contains the same compound (levulinic acid) that bees use to protect their pollen and nectar. Not only are these effective anti-microbials, but they also have active skin care properties; soothes skin and balances the skin's PH to an ideal level.
Glyceryl Caprylate: Derived from coconuts, it works with sodium levulinate and sodium anisate in our preservative system.
Vegetable Glycerin: A colourless, odourless liquid that derives from non-GMO rapeseed oil. It is soluble in water and acts as a humectant (attracts moisture).
REFLECTOR SPF 30 FACIAL SUN PROTECTION
Zinc Oxide: A naturally occurring powdered mineral used in lotions and creams meant for outdoor use. Zinc Oxide sits on top of the skin scattering, reflecting and absorbing UVA and UVB rays.
Titanium Dioxide: A naturally occurring mineral that works like tiny mirrors to deflect UV rays off of the skin. It has a high refractive index and ability to reflect and scatter light. Titanium Dioxide is both gentle and cooling on the skin.
Aluminum Hydroxide: Used as a skin protectant - coats the titanium dioxide and forms a protective layer without penetrating the skin.
Lauric Acid: Naturally occurring fatty acid found in coconut oil.
Triethoxycaprylylsilane: Used to create a stable coating for zinc oxide.
Tapioca Starch: Derived from the root of the cassava plant and is used to create a smooth, non-oily, light cream.
Olive Leaf Extract and Turmeric are both antioxidant rich botanical extracts that are soothing and rejuvenating to the skin.
EMULSIFIERS
Glyceryl Stearate SE: Fatty acid derived from vegetable oil, produced from glycerin and stearic acid and used as an emulsifier.
Polyglyceryl-6 Distearate: Produced from glycerol and stearic acid and used as an emulsifier.
PRESERVATIVES
Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C): Used as a preservative and antioxidant.
Benzyl Alcohol, Salicylic Acid and Sorbic Acid: All ECOCERT approved preservatives that work together in Reflector SPF 30 to ensure safe broad spectrum protection.
Potassium Sorbate: The inactive salt of sorbic acid.

Cocoon hand soap is excellent
Touchy Feely hand soap is wonderful. It actually moisturizes my skin as I am using it. They feel softer after washing than they did before.
Like a miracle
My hands were extremely dry, rough and cracked. My grocery store hand soap was only making it worse. Cocoon Touchy Feely hand soap has left them soft and smooth after every wash. It smells good too. My only criticism is the name. It's way too cutesy for me.
I love this soap!
It’s a beautiful soap. It smells great and a little bit goes a very long way. I also really love the fact that it’s in a glass bottle.
Smells so good
This is such a great soap for people (and kids) with sensitive skin. It smells amazing, the right, light touch of lavender without being overpowering like some lavender items can be. It lathers up great, is in a beautiful bottle and again, great for kids with sensitive skin.
Best Hand Soap Ever!
This soap cleans gently without drying out skin. It’s light scent is an added bonus. I’ll definitely be a repeat customer!
Hand soap
I have purchased your hand soap and several other products and will continue. The only problem I have had is with the pump. I transferred a pump from my last soap purchase. Am I doing something wrong?
Cocoon Apothecary
Hello Joyce, Thank you for your review of our hand soap. As for your pump issue, there may be a vaccum in the bottle when you first open it, and the pump sometimes has trouble pulling the product if this is the case. We recommend unscrewing the pump from the bottle, and trying to pump again as this may solve the issue. If you continue to have difficulty, we are always willing to send you a replacement pump for your product if you let us know. I hope this information is helpful, and you continue to enjoy Cocoon Apothecary products. Christine Cocoon Apothecary
Great for those who usually don’t!
My experience was great! We are a family of highly allergic, sensory averting folk! And everyone lovvved this soap!
The Whole Extended Family’s Using It
Smells great, works well, and is gentle and hydrating for my sensitive skin. I have at home in town, my parents a few hours away, and my Aunt just picked some up when she was visiting too. The whole family’s a fan.
Light scent
I love this soap and it’s fresh light lavender scent. This soap is gentle on my skin and leaves them smelling fabulous

Hand soap Awesome

Best Handsoap!
I love this soap! I bought this soap for many of my friends and they think it’s great too! The smell is divine.
Cocoon Apothecary
We are so happy to hear you love it so much! Keep up the great gift giving!
My go-to hand soap
This is the only hand soap I use now, it’s next to every sink. Moisturizing and nicely, lightly scented.
Love it so much. Smells really nice
Love it! I really love the smell and my only concern is that I’m going to run out of it soon. I’ve been very mindful not to use a lot because spending this much for a hand soap feels excessive sometimes. I love it a lot but I also feel guilty for my wallet.
So good!!!!
Smell is amazing and the soup works so well!
