The Blue Cocoon

When your skin is crying out for moisture, feels overly sensitive, lacks elasticity and much-coveted dewiness, it’s time for help.

Whether you got here through genetics, diet and lifestyle, exposure to the elements, or have skin that has become over-stimulated and depleted through incompatible or excessive product use, you will find respite with our collection’s deeply nourishing skin food.

step 1: cleanse

product:
The Pendulum Potion
The Pendulum Potion
$80 USD
  &
The Honey Mud
The Honey Mud
$95 USD
Frequency: twice daily

The Ritual:

a.m.
Massage a fat, blueberry-sized dollop of The Honey Mud into wet skin to emulsify into a gorgeous and silky cleansing milk, alternating (or even blending!) with The Clean Dirt on your exfoliation days.

p.m.
Begin with The Pendulum Potion to cleanse face, neck, and décolleté (note: this gorgeous formula also doubles as a body & hair oil!). Massage several pumps into dry skin, focusing on areas of makeup or congestion. Wet hands and continue massage, then place our warm, damp, Facial Steam Cloth over face and neck. Press, rinse, and repeat until skin is soft and happy.

Follow with The Honey Mud to enhance your cleanse, feeding goodness right back in. Either swirl into damp skin or smooth richly over dry skin, for a luscious, glow-inducing treatment.

step 2: Exfoliate

product:
The Clean Dirt
The Clean Dirt
$75 USD
 & 
The Pendulum Potion
The Pendulum Potion
$80 USD
Frequency: every other day

The Ritual:

Measure 1 tsp. of The Clean Dirt’s concentrated powder and blend with just shy of equal parts water to form a soft mousse. Massage into damp skin with the pads of your fingertips, ideally while in the shower, to allow the heat and steam to soften and prepare skin. Leave for a few minutes, then face into the water to easily wash the formula away, massaging as you go. 

Continue the massage on your now-clean skin for at least another minute after the grains have been rinsed clear, focusing on areas of dullness, dryness, or flakiness - often, you can feel dead skin releasing at your fingertips in this step! When you feel this sensation, continue rubbing that area of the skin until the texture shifts. Continue until skin is soft, smooth, and bright.  

Bonus: Try blending The Clean Dirt with several pumps of The Pendulum Potion or a dollop of The Honey Mud (or both together!) for a nourishing, supportive boost every other treatment.

step 3: Mask

The Honey Mud
The Honey Mud
$95 USD
Frequency: 2x weekly +

The Ritual:

Twice weekly, treat with The Problem Solver to gently encourage cell turnover. Be sure to use enough powder to reach a rich, bubbling mousse consistency - at least ½-1 true Tablespoon - blending with just shy of equal parts water to form a soft, rich mousse in our treatment bowl. Brush over skin and relax for 30-45 minutes until dry. When your treatment is complete, step into a warm shower, allowing the steam and running water to rehydrate the masque before rinsing away easily.

To enjoy The Honey Mud as an enzyme masque, smooth generously over clean, dry skin, leaving it to work its magic from a few minutes up to an hour before rinsing clear as you massage with the pads of your fingertips.

Bonus: I like to mask at least twice weekly with The Problem Solver, and an additional time or two with The Honey Mud, or (my favorite!), try blending The Problem Solver with a dollop of The Honey Mud for a lush, glow-inducing alternative.

step 4: moisturize

product:
The Blue Cocoon

The Youth Dew
The Youth Dew
$185 USD
&
The Jasmine Garden
The Jasmine Garden
$80 USD
Frequency: twice daily

The Ritual:

After every cleansing or treatment, feed and hydrate skin immediately with The Blue Cocoon and The Youth Dew. Always massage both, layered or blended together, into fully WET skin directly following rinsing (skip your towel completely), while skin is still warm and at its most receptive. When followed with The Jasmine Garden, this creates a water-oil-water sandwich that is especially beneficial for dry and dehydrated complexions. 

Give a little extra love to your eye area and your lips and double up on your portion size in the evenings to nourish skin as you sleep.

step 5: mist

product:
The Jasmine Garden
The Jasmine Garden
$80 USD
 
Frequency: throughout the day

The Ritual:

Complete your cleansing ritual by saturating skin with The Jasmine Garden and continuing your massage AFTER applying your oils. This unique formula enhances penetration and assimilation of everything that comes before it, enabling the deepest possible absorption of both fat and water-soluble nutrients. Mist throughout the day to soothe and refresh skin (+ hair & body!), and to envelop you in a cocoon of calm.

step 6: Nourish

product:
The Happy Galaxy
The Happy Galaxy
$160 USD
 
Frequency: following every bath & shower

The Ritual:

After shaking bottle, dispense 4-6 pumps into wet hands, pressing between palms to trigger the vitamin actives. Massage this cerulean elixir from toes to hips, repeating generously over your upper body, and gliding over your every dip and curve with a firm, loving touch. 

Try leaving your bottle in the shower for easy access and a daily reminder to massage into fully wet, softened skin prior to reaching for your towel. 

Bonus Tips

It’s tempting when feeling dry to just layer product on top of product on top of more product. However, this can interrupt your skin’s own ability to regulate itself, further contributing to your challenges. We encourage you to instead minimize your ritual and make each step count.

Do your best to move away from products that strip the skin or disrupt your delicate acid mantle, leaving you tight and uncomfortable. Think twice about stronger treatments that sensitize skin over time. Your complexion will still be here next year and 5, 10, and 20 years from now. Nourish it accordingly.

Dryness and dehydration in our skin is often the result of our lifestyle and environmental factors. Let this be a gentle reminder to give love to our internal self, focusing on nutrition and adequate hydration (good fats and a plentitude of water in every season are non-negotiable), as well as making small changes that can create big impact like introducing a water filter in your shower and sleeping with a humidifier on.
