School holidays are fast approaching and many of you are already packing your bags for trips abroad (or to various parts of the UK!).  An appropriate time to post a reminder about the multi-purpose delights of our organic hair and body bars and organic loofah bars. Between them, these products give you an organic soap, shampoo and exfoliator. We have recently talked about the kids loving our hair and body bars and in our Harrogate Boutique we are finding these and our loofah soaps are both popular as holiday purchases.  Current favourites are items from both ranges containing gorgeous lime. Citrus oils are renowned for their ability to refresh and invigorate; they are the ‘happy’ essential oils and perfect for summer.

Lime is particularly delicious – zesty, uplifting and reviving  – totally addictive! 

LIME AND GINGER LOOFAH BARS 
Cleanse, moisturise and exfoliate with one product!
200g – £13 
travel size 40g – £2.80

NETTLE AND LIME HAIR AND BODY BARS 
Use as a shampoo and a soap!

Cashmere is 8x warmer than wool and even a lightweight knit will bring warmth immediately.  Here at CocoonU we can offer a range of pieces to keep you happy, cosy, warm..but still stylish..and remember all ethically sourced.

Put on a pair of our 100% cashmere chunky Arran long socks/indoor boots with cute bobble ties to keep your legs and feet warm as toast, then fill your hot water bottle and put on one of our gorgeous 100% cashmere  covers so you can snuggle up against the softest surface. Wrap yourself in one of our100% cashmere exquisite lace shawls – light, soft, stylish and incredibly warm and perfect for rolling up and keeping in your handbag when you venture out.

As they started to wander inside, Vanessa received many comments on how individual both the boutiqe and its’ collection are. Even small children oohed and ahheed at the softness of the cashmere.  The bespoke nature of the CocoonU boutique was fantastically well received, with everyone loving the opportunity to browse, try on exquisite cashmere pieces and experiment with looks, away from the mainstream of Christmas retail.  As the entire cashmere range is unique to CocoonU, customers could fully see a collection that cannot be found anywhere else and is all ethically sourced.

Our loofah soaps also did a storm and are incredibly popular with both men and women.

Several people commented how you need time to really browse and take in the full range, sometimes taking a couple of visits to make that final purchasing decision.  There will be lots of you enjoying a CocoonU Happy Christmas!

We welcome you to come and spend time browsing
