In 1979, we introduced what was then known as "Deep Tan Oil"—a nourishing alternative to the era's trend of mixing baby oil and iodine in pursuit of a deeper tan. Fast-forward to today, and that original blend has evolved into our beloved Cocoa Butter Coconut Body Oil: a rich, restorative body oil designed to hydrate, soothe, and enhance your skin’s natural glow—no sun required.
A Skin-Loving Heritage
Our Body Oil combines the best of nature’s moisturizers: Cocoa Butter, Coconut Oil, Sesame Oil, and Sweet Almond Oil. This indulgent blend is not only wonderfully aromatic—with a warm, sweet coconut scent—it’s packed with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties to help hydrate, repair, and protect your skin.
The result? Silky-soft, radiant skin with a velvety smooth finish and a gentle, tropical fragrance.
Key Ingredients Spotlight:
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil contains essential fatty acids that nourish the skin, improve elasticity, and may even minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Its ability to strengthen the skin’s natural barrier helps lock in moisture and keep dryness at bay. With regular use, skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more resilient.
Cocoa Butter
A powerful emollient that deeply hydrates and nourishes your skin. It helps prevent moisture loss and shields your skin from harmful environmental elements, leaving it feeling soft, supple, and protected.
Sweet Almond Oil
With its ability to penetrate deeply, sweet almond oil keeps your skin moisturized, soothed, and protected. It’s especially beneficial for relieving redness, itchiness, and inflammation, making it perfect for sensitive or reactive skin.
A Note on Texture & Temperature
The consistency of our Cocoa Butter Coconut Body Oil can vary significantly with the seasons. In warmer months, particularly in hot climates, the oil will typically stay in a liquid state. However, during winter or on cooler days in spring and fall, it is likely to solidify. When the ambient temperature falls below 76°F (24°C), coconut oil naturally begins to harden.
If your body oil has solidified, no need to worry. Simply place the bottle in a bowl of warm water for at least 20 minutes to restore it to its liquid form. Once warmed, give the bottle a vigorous shake to ensure the ingredients are evenly blended.
Ways to Use Cocoa Butter Coconut Body Oil
Daily Hydration
After a warm shower or bath, while your skin is still damp, massage a small amount of oil between your palms and smooth it over your body. Focus on areas that tend to get dry—like elbows, knees, and feet. This seals in moisture and keeps skin hydrated all day.
To Improve Skin Elasticity
Apply daily to areas more prone to sagging (think underarms, neck, and thighs). For best results, incorporate gentle exfoliation a few times a week to slough off dead skin cells and promote regeneration.
After-Sun Soother
Spent time in the sun? This oil works beautifully to rehydrate and calm sun-exposed skin. Apply generously and reapply throughout the day to reduce inflammation and maintain moisture.
For Dry Hair & Scalp
Warm a bit of oil and massage it into your scalp and hair. Leave it in for 20–30 minutes before rinsing and shampooing. This simple treatment helps combat dryness, flakiness, and dullness, restoring shine and softness.
As a Hydrating Bath Oil
Add one to two tablespoons to a warm bath for a deeply moisturizing soak. Swirl the water to distribute the oil, then ease in and enjoy 20 minutes of pure, skin-softening indulgence. (Take care when exiting the tub—oils can make surfaces slippery.)
Simple, Effective, and Time-Tested
From its roots in the sun-soaked 70s to its modern role as a multi-use skincare essential, our Cocoa Butter Coconut Body Oil continues to offer natural nourishment with a nostalgic twist. Whether you're replenishing dry skin, calming sun exposure, or adding a little luxury to your day, this oil is your all-in-one glow-up in a bottle.
Smooth it on. Breathe it in. Feel the difference.
