One of the things we like the most about summer is smearing ourselves with cream after a day in the sun. And it is not only a pleasant situation but it is a necessary step in our beauty routine. In fact, call me over the top but moisturizing your skin should be a must.
And of all the moisturizers that I have been trying over the last few weeks –yes, I admit it, I am one of those who have several open jars of cream at the same time …–, there is one that has caught my attention. It smells like coconut, leaves a golden reflection on the skin and is called The Glow.
It is the body cream of Cocuna t, the Catalan natural and toxic free brand that does not stop growing on Instagram, and the favorite of celebrities like Paula Echevarría.
Beautiful skin is one that looks firm, smooth, smooth and elastic and this is what we get using The Glow. Hydrates thanks to its coconut oil –which is highly nutritious and rich in vitamin E and K–, jojoba oil –which provides softness without leaving a greasy sensation– and shea butter –which has a calming effect and has a high content of antioxidants– . In addition, it also contains squalene , an ingredient that provides elasticity and flexibility to the skin and helps prevent skin aging.
The mixture of smells reminds us of those waffles that we ate when we were little and that we liked so much. Spoiler: it is a cream not suitable for the haters of cloying smells.
The shine it leaves we like for arms and legs and it looks great for summer nights when we wear little dresses, pareo skirts or bermuda shorts. Of course, do not be scared because it does not leave a greasy feeling. Cocunat has a sustainable philosophy - something that is increasingly common in the cosmetic industry - and in the case of The Glow it is demonstrated thanks to its 100% recyclable glass bottle. This cream is vegan and cruelty free and its ingredients are completely natural.
Other vegan moisturizers
Lamixtura is another brand that you should consider if you are looking for a vegan moisturizer . Its creators, Amaia and Silvia, had been in cosmetic R&D laboratories for many years and decided to undertake the adventure of creating this brand of natural and vegan dermocosmetics.
Beyond Canvas Cream , the basic moisturizer that we highly recommend, there are other products that you should not miss. The All Day Long Moisturizing Boost –a serum with hyaluronic acid, organic fig extract and acacia peptides–, the Reparative Beauty Booster –a rejuvenating serum with virgin oil of passion fruit and sesame oil– and the SOS Skin Calming Booster , the soothing serum with organic cork oak extract.
We also really like Maminat cream , with natural elements that stimulate the natural functions of the skin, we love it. It is also made in Spain and its sunscreen is biodegradable, ecological and sustainable.
From the brand they comment: "The base ingredient is aloe vera , which helps to fight skin aging. It has physical filters that do not penetrate the body and also protect from the harmful effects of the sun and also does not leave the skin white because it only has vegetable and mineral pigments. " The perfect cream to show off beautiful tanned legs when sunbathing.
