Is Mokosh Pure Face & Body Cream safe during pregnancy? The ingredients in our Mokosh Essential Oil Free collection and Pure Face & Body Cream are free from known irritants including essential oils and are generally considered safe for use during pregnancy. BUT, we strongly recommend you share every skincare product with your physician and follow their advice, especially if you’re uncertain about starting a new skincare product or certain ingredients.
How to treat dry sensitive skin on your face? If you have sensitive skin certain topical products, or harsh weather like sun, wind or cold can irritate your skin. Your protective skin barrier may be weaker, thinner, and more easily damaged.
The key to treating dry sensitive skin is to treat it gently. Mokosh Skincare is formulated to be non-irritating and restorative. Gentle exfoliation with the Facial Cleanser, Exfoliator and Mask and cleansing with the Makeup Remover & Cleansing Oil will keep your skin clean and its acid mantle intact. Using linoleic acid-rich moisturizers like Pure Face & Body Cream will help your skin retain moisture, fortify its protective barrier, and keep healthy. According to Mokosh founder Marion O'Leary, “Using preservative-free skin care will leave our skin microbiome undisturbed and improve the resilience of our skin's microbiological barrier. In the same way that an all natural diet rich in nutrients provides our body with the best fuel, a natural synthetic-free, preferably certified organic skin care regime allows our skin to get on with doing the job it does best.”
Why is it important that Mokosh is water-free? Many standard skin care products contain water (up to 85% water). Because these formulas are water-free - they are up to 5 times more concentrated than standard skin care, and 5 times more densely packed with nutrients and typically last longer.
Can I use this for all over my body? Yes. Pure Face & Body Cream is light enough to be used on both your face and your body. Many body lotions have irritating ingredients, including fragrances, that are harsh on your face which is why it's sometimes recommended not to use them on your face. Pure Face & Body Cream is free of common irritants including sulfates, alcohol, preservatives, dyes, fragrance and essential oils.
Are Mokosh Skin Care products cruelty free? Absolutely. No Mokosh product (or any ingredients) are tested on animals. Mokosh has cruelty free accreditation with Choose Cruelty Free.
