History
“Little by little… A little becomes a lot.” (Tanzanian Proverb)
This has become the mantra for Cocolume, as our products are hand-made to help eliminate chemicals from your body, bathroom and ecosystem… One scrub at a time.
The Name COCO-LUME comes from knowing our products contain rich, healthy and organic coconuts from the Cook Islands and using these products helps create a luminous, healthy skin, I wanted to reflect this in the name. COCOLUME.
Aru i te ara o t era: “follow the pathway of the sun”
Meaning: Find the positive elements in your life, culture and being.
(Rarotongan proverb)
I believe Cocolume reflects this in each of our products.
The therapeutic ingredients which we have used to create this nourishing skin care range have been sourced from paradise..
So you know while it’s good for you, so when you use it, you know you are helping contribute to the islands sustainability, the environment, and your skins health. What could be better?
Why
OUR SKIN NEEDS TO BE TREATED WITH LOVE.
“What we put on our skin, we absorb into our bodies and bloodstream. “
The skin is the body’s largest organ and little do we realize that we don’t treat our other organs to such damage as we treat our skin. Skin provides a direct filter to our blood stream and internal organs. So what ever we put on our skin we are essentially putting inside of us. We respond instinctively to natural, organic products, as our bodies recognize them and accept them more willingly than synthetic ingredients.
CHEMICALS DESTROY OUR ECOSYSTEM AND MARINE LIFE NOT JUST US.
Without our planet, we simply don’t exist. We create an impact on our environment every day and we are unknowingly adding to the toxic pollution, killing our fish, aquatic life and plants slowly and painfully.
Some chemicals in body and hand wash remain in the environment for many years without breaking down. Imagine the damage that is done every time we wash our hands. Cocolume is eco friendly, using only natural plant based preservatives, sustainable ingredients and recyclable / reusable packaging.
