Benefits of Cocoa for the Skin

The supportive properties found in cocoa powder are not just abundant internally; they also provide many of the same effects externally. Just as the antioxidants help stop the premature breakdown of cells in plants, it does the same for your skin. The use of raw Cocoa on the skin, like in our Haute Cocoa Mask, helps protect skin from free radicals and help signs of aging.

INSIDE OR OUT, COCOA IS GOOD FOR THE SKIN.

Raw cocoa powder maintains skin health due to flavanols. Flavanols decrease the harmful effects of UV rays on the skin while enhancing elasticity and hydration.

These properties help to soften, clear, and detoxify your skin. Raw cocoa powder can also increase the elasticity of your skin, which helps with fine lines, wrinkles, and reduces the appearance of scars. It is important to note that the cocoa powder used also has to be minimally processed, as close to the tree as possible, and organic for the best effects.
