I’ve never practiced a strict skin regimen though I probably should and have been telling myself that for years. Occasionally, I’ll try different products, like the ones from the vci shop, for example, but I never stick to a set routine. Having lived in Seattle for so long, my skin had adapted to the environment there and the move to California has not been the smoothest. Here, I find myself relying heavily on my Olay moisturizer more (as discussed in my Beauty for Breakfast post) but am now trying to seek out other products that might get the job done and allow me to still use less. I know some friends who make use of a private label skin care product line and have great results, so perhaps I will give that a go at some point. For now though, I’ve found a few options that I am admittedly very curious about, so only time will tell if I go down this route.

In the meantime, Refinery29 has introduced a new line of products by Karin Herzog today that infuses real chocolate and naturally we became curious.

These high-performance products actually count cacao as an ingredient – no artificial scents or dyes here. In fact, considering the skin-boosting properties of chocolate (nutrients and vitamins aplenty) and its natural, way-luxurious scent, we’re surprised this is the first time we’ve heard about a skin care brand harnessing the power of our guiltiest pleasure.

So unfortunately, you can’t eat it, which is what most people wonder about when they see chocolate on a label. You’re going to need to find yourself a grocery store for that one. Readers, would you still try the product? I love the scent of chocolate, but I’m also wondering if using it as a product on my skin and smelling it all the time might make me tired of it.
