Get to know Mokosh

Former medical scientist, veterinarian and pathologist Marion Oā€™Leary founded Mokosh when she came to understand the damaging health effects of traditional skincare. Marion is passionate about restoring integrity and truth to the world of skincare, focusing not on big claims but on simplified and effective formulas. Mokosh skincare is rooted in the wisdom of science, nature and Ayurveda. Ayurveda is a medical system with roots in the Indian subcontinent. Its name is derived from the Sanskrit words ayur (life) and veda (knowledge). Mokosh removes the non-essential from traditional skincare, bringing together the natural worldā€™s most potent, healing botanicals in a simple, multipurpose range. Mokosh formulas are designed to deliver pure, concentrated nutrition to your skin while tapping into your skinā€™s natural self-regulating abilities ā€“ restoring it to balance.  

 

Why we love Mokosh

There are countless reasons to love Mokosh, but one of the main reasons we love Mokosh skincare is because itā€™s a brand with a big heart and a strong conscience. Mokosh is a brand that believes in conscious consumption and theyā€™re always aware of their humanitarian and environmental impact. Mokosh displays this commitment in the ingredients it uses for its formulas. All the Mokosh skincare products are made with carefully sourced ingredients and only fair-trade shea butter, cocoa butter, coconut oil and coconut flour. Fairtrade means that the producers receive a higher and fair price as well as better working conditions and fair pay for women and children. The Mokosh formulas are also palm-oil free and the brand itself is accredited palm-oil free with Palm Oil Investigations and certified palm oil-free with Orangutan Alliance.

 

At Sassy Organics, we are firm believers in cruelty-free skincare. Mokosh is a proudly cruelty-free brand with accreditation from Choose Cruelty-Free. This means that none of the Mokosh products or ingredients has been tested on our furry friends. Weā€™re all about reducing plastic waste at Sassy Organics and believe the beauty and skincare industry has a key role to play in the plastics crisis. Thatā€™s why we love Mokoshā€™s commitment to using recyclable glass and paper packaging. Mokosh not only makes amazing products that help us heal our skin naturally, but they also support causes we care about. Philanthropy is a big part of the Mokosh brand. They made regular donations to various environmental and social causes including The Orangutan Project, Amnesty International, The Red Cross and The Thin Green Line Foundation. Currently, Mokosh are buying trees with Carbon Neutral to plant in the Yarra Yarra Biodiversity Corridor, and supporting One Girl, whose mission is to educate girls in Africa.

 

The benefits of using Mokosh skincare

Itā€™s not just our heads and hearts that have fallen in love with Mokosh skincare but our skin too. If you enjoy skincare that is remedial, natural and proven then Mokosh is for you. Mokosh skincare is entirely water-free. This means that each formula is a potent blend of natural extracts, oils and plant butters. The absence of water also means that the Mokosh formulas donā€™t need skin-disrupting emulsifiers or preservatives ā€“ making them safer for your skin. Mokosh avoids all the harmful ingredients that are found in typical skincare formulas like parabens and other synthetic substances. Instead, Mokosh is full of hydrating and healing botanicals that use the wisdom of mother nature to produce visible and long-lasting skin improvements. Weā€™ve found that Mokosh skincare is great at getting into the deeper layers of our skin where it actively balances our natural oil production and skin problems. Mokosh skincare is also certified organic. Certified organic skincare is skincare that uses ingredients grown in a more natural way without the use of nasties like herbicides and pesticides, making them even safer and better for your skin.

 

Is Mokosh vegan?

All Mokosh products are vegan except for the Coconut and Blackcurrant Lip Balm and the Pure Body Balm ā€“ both of these contain certified organic beeswax. However, all the Mokosh products sold at Sassy Organics are completely vegan.

Our top 6 Mokosh products

Itā€™s so hard to pick just five Mokosh skin care products but if youā€™re looking to build a natural Ayurveda skincare regime with Mokosh then here are our top five products to get you started.

 

1. Mokosh Certified Organic Cleansing Oil

Every good skincare routine starts with a cleanser. The Mokosh cleansing oil is a great option for all skin types. This cleansing oil uses a blend of four nutritious plant oils ā€“ pumpkin, sesame, sunflower and jojoba ā€“ which work to break down makeup and grime. This cleansing oil can be used on its own and is a gentle method of cleansing thatā€™s perfect for dry and sensitive skin, but also for oily skin as it doesnā€™t strip away natural oils like harsh foam cleansers.

 

2. Mokosh Certified Organic Light Face Cream

A day cream is an essential skin care product. You should follow your cleansing and toning routine with a light day cream that will lock in moisture on the skinā€™s surface. This Mokosh Light Face Cream makes for a great day cream as itā€™s enriched with antioxidants that protect your skin throughout the day.

 

3. Mokosh Certified Organic Rich Cream

A good night cream should be rich and full of nourishing ingredients that can work at improving and healing your skin while you sleep. The Mokosh Rich Face Cream makes a great night cream option as itā€™s full of concentrated botanicals. Formulated with 10 precious plant oils, this night cream works wonders for aging and dry skin.

 

4. Mokosh Certified Organic Beauty Serum

Are you looking for the best face serum Australia? The Mokosh Beauty Serum is the best face serum Australia weā€™ve found for all skin types. This serum is enriched with raspberry and pomegranate, so itā€™s high in vitamin E and pro-vitamin A. This is the best face serum Australia if you want to reduce redness and restore moisture to the skin.

 

5. Mokosh Certified Organic Body Oil

Body oil is a great option in place of a regular body moisturiser or lotion. A body oil uses only natural plant oils which provide a deeper, more nourishing hydration. The Mokosh body oil contains sesame and frankincense which sinks in rapidly to the skin and is great for a body oil massage.

 

6. Mokosh Certified Organic Olive Oil Soap

Olive oil soap is that all-rounder product that every bathroom needs in stock. The Mokosh olive oil soap is not only organic but also handmade. This fragrance-free olive oil soap is a perfect cleansing option for sensitive skin, including baby skin. Plus Mokosh wraps its olive oil soap in compostable and recyclable paper.
