COCOON SOAP

In this period for which I still can’t find an adjective, many of you have sent me messages of support first. Then, the moment came when I received a wave of messages from nurses, pharmacists, doctors, cashiers, bakers and finally from everyone telling me that, by dint of wearing gloves, masks and intensive hand washing, my skin was raw, redness, skin reactions with the appearance of patches of small pimples, darters or other droughts. So here’s what pushed me to lift my buttocks to come and put them in front of my keyboard to write you several things:

Cracks or patches on the hands are particularly unpleasant since we use our hands throughout the day. So first, you should wash your hands with superfatted and cold saponified soap, which is very effective and above all very gentle on the skin of your hands. At Comette, it is Cocoon which is the one and only soap made and offered on the shop because it is just perfect. Only 3 ingredients, 100% organic, certified by Nature and Progress, without perfume, alcohol, fragrance or preservatives, it is ideal for baby, mom and the whole family.

Then once your hands are clean and dried, moisturize with a product that contains no water or alcohol, I repeat myself but it’s very important, without fragrance, perfume, preservatives or other irritating products (it’s time to get rid of your shower gels, cleansing cream and all those wonderful plastic containers). We prefer a product that has calming, anti-bacterial, moisturizing and repairing properties. At Comette, we didn’t wait for Covid-19 to think of such a product and I have been making with love for more than two years the Bobo balm thanks to which many “bobos” have been cured. For people in the medical profession and those who continue to travel to work, apply a small amount of the balm in the evening to clean hands, just before going to bed. Repeat the gesture in the morning and it should already soothe you enormously after 24 hours, then if you continue the daily application, you will see the dryness disappear, even for the most raw skin.

Its concentration of beeswax, fine and immortal lavender make it an extremely repairing balm and a great antiseptic. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the people who work in the medical field and those who continue to allow us to live well, even in lockdown. Thank you to the women and men of hospital cleaning, to the cashiers who are in the front row, to the doctors, surgeons, nurses, people who make masks, who cook for the hospital staff, thank you to the liberal nurses… Finally thank you to you, to us, for staying confined and respecting all these people affected during this pandemic and those affected by this f***ing virus. Thank you for your support, thank you for your little words, your calls, your orders. I really realize our strength and all that we can do when we stick together and not our hands. It’s beautiful, we are beautiful and I promise you that we will get back up, we owe it to ourselves, for the planet and for all the people who lose their lives there.

I’ll stop there, see you soon.
