As we approach colder winter months, our skin is exposed to new problems. Dry cold air combined with artificial indoor heat can lead to a lack of moisture in the skin. For some, the result is extremely dry and itchy skin. If your heels and elbows are looking particularly patchy, flaky or feeling irritable then coconut milk could be just what you need to soothe and kiss that winter itch goodbye.
Healing
Coconut milk is naturally packed with vitamins (A, C, E calcium, and iron), and naturally fatty acids, which makes it ideal for the following reasons:
It alleviates dry and irritated skin.
Its antimicrobial properties help to remove bacteria from your skin.
It evens out skin discoloration.
It replenishes lost moisture and slows the aging process.
It improves skin elasticity and improves skin texture.
It’s no secret that we, at Calypso Glow, love everything coconut. So, it should also come as no surprise that when we handcrafted our Nourishing Body Wash Milk, we wanted a product that everyone could fall in love with. And why not? The festive season is soon upon us and it’s the perfect time for a little skin pampering! By combining the natural properties found in coconut milk with the moisturizing components in coconut oil, we have created a luxuriously creamy wash that works to replenish lost moisture and soothe winter dry skin.
Whether it is used as a bath soak or light cleanser, the Calypso Glow Nourishing Body Wash Milk will remove dead skin cells without any harsh abrasions, leaving you with a naturally healthy glow; just in time for the holiday season!
Pictured above: Our natural non-lathering creamy infusion of organic Caribbean coconut oil and coconut milk creates a luxurious bath-time treat that gently cleanses while moisturising, soothing and leaving skin irresistibly silky soft. Light in consistency yet powerfully cleansing, it can penetrate deep into skin pores and drive out grime, dirt, pollution and germs. Featured in our Gift Set with the Illuminating Body Scrub & Polish and Soothing Body Oil.
Feel better, Look better
Naturally anti-oxidant and mild enough for sensitive skin, coconut milk has anti-inflammatory agents that help to alleviate the discomfort and the self-consciousness that comes with dry winter skin. Feel better and more rejuvenated as the product works to repair and protect damaged cells, and look better as it strengthens and firms them instead. Our ingredients are free of artificial fragrances, parabens, and toxins that would otherwise irritate or worsen dry skin.
Overall, The Calypso Glow Nourishing Body Wash Milk would make a worthy contribution to your winter skin-care routine, and our gift set makes it a great holiday gift. NB: This product is not a solution for serious skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis, which may require medical attention.

“We took a bath with it and enjoyed a luxurious and relaxing time. It smells good (who doesn't love coconuts?), makes your skin soft and is made with wonderful ingredients. All natural by the way. So, we love how it makes your skin look and feel – it is shining and non-drying.” - Barbara & Stefanie, Issue_W Magazine
