Before and after: skin before and after using MOKA

You've tried everything.

Out of the shower, and within five minutes your skin pulls tight. You put something on. It helps for an hour, maybe two.

You've been down the aisle. Aveeno, E45, Palmers. The natural stuff from Instagram. Some of it helped for a week. Some made things worse. Turn the bottle round and it's mostly water, padded out with things you can't pronounce.

So now you read ingredient lists before you buy. Good. Ours is seven lines long. It starts with cocoa butter, not aqua.

★★★★★
Skin feels lovely and smooth, it is easy to apply and has a very pleasant natural smell.

The 10 second swipe

Push up the base. Swipe it on. Done.

No scooping from a tub, no lotion on the bedsheets, no greasy hands to wash after. Ten seconds, start to finish.

  1. 1Push up gently.
  2. 2Apply in a circular motion.
  3. 3Rub in if needed.

One honest note: there's a slight sheen on very dry skin. That's concentrated butter with no water in it. Most people with dry skin call that a fair trade.

★★★★★
I use Moka all over as part of my daily skin care routine after showering, goes on smooth and leaves a lovely sheen on darker skin.

Our Story

Made by someone who has spent 30 years in your skin.

I've had eczema since I was three. Thirty years of chemists: Aveeno, E45, Palmers, the Instagram natural stuff. Mostly water and unpronounceable things. Little helped.

"I stopped looking for something that worked. I started making it."

In Ghana I bought raw cocoa and shea butter, melted them, poured them into an old deodorant tube. No plan, no brand, no chemistry degree. It worked. Five years on, I make every batch by hand in the UK.

I won't promise it will fix your eczema. Everyone's skin is different. But if you're still stuck using steroid creams like I was, try this. Your skin will thank you for it.

I've used moka for 3-4 months and I'm now addicted! It's part of my daily routine and I miss it when I don't have it... it's the smell, the way it glides on my skin, the glisten it gives at the start and the strong moisturising that I need. I use it on my face, arms and legs, and I've had no issues, no spots, nothing.

An honest filter

Who MOKA is for. And who it isn't.

MOKA is for you if...

You've tried everything and you're tired of being let down.

You want to know every ingredient, and there are only seven.

You'd rather have one thing made properly than ten made in a factory.

You want relief you can feel on the first swipe, without the faff.

MOKA isn't for you if...

You want the cheapest option. It's handmade in small batches and priced like it.

You want a perfume-strength scent. The only smell is the raw cocoa and shea butter, chocolatey and earthy.

You want an overnight fix. Real skin change takes weeks, and we'll be honest about that.

Still here? Then it's probably for you.

Try Moka

Read the label

Most lotions are a list you can't read. This is seven.

Turn a normal bottle round and count the ingredients. Twenty, thirty, sometimes forty, half of them chemicals you couldn't say out loud. MOKA is seven, and you'll recognise every one.

No water padding it out either. Just concentrated cocoa and shea butter, so it sinks in and stays put. One swipe in the morning holds past lunchtime.

Common questions

Questions, answered.

Will it suit very sensitive skin?

It was made for it. Seven ingredients, no added fragrance, no fillers, and every one is listed right on the tube. It's suitable from age 3 and safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding. And if it's not right for you: 30 days. No questions asked.

How long does one stick last?

Used daily on arms and legs, 4 to 6 weeks. Light use on the odd dry patch, closer to two months. All-over twice a day, more like two weeks. That's why we recommend delivery every 4 weeks, and you can change the frequency any time.

Is it vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes and yes. The wax that keeps the stick solid is candelilla, a plant wax, where most solid balms use beeswax. Nothing is tested on animals.

How fast will I feel anything?

The first swipe: skin feels softer and less tight straight away. The bigger difference builds over weeks, not days. Skin renews itself over roughly 4 to 6 weeks, which is exactly why the guarantee runs 30 days. No questions asked.

Can I use it on my face?

It's designed for the body. Josh uses it on his face too, but cocoa butter and coconut oil are rich for some face types. Start with the body; that's what it's built for.

What does it smell like?

Faintly of chocolate, because that's what raw cocoa butter smells like. It's a soft, natural note that fades once the butter sinks in. There's no added fragrance, so nothing is sprayed in to cover anything up.

Will it melt in my bag or a hot car?

It's a solid stick at room temperature and fine in a bag. Cocoa butter starts to soften above about 30°C, so a hot car in summer can soften it. Let it cool and it firms right back up, unaffected. Skin is warmer than a room, which is exactly why it melts in when you swipe it on.

What does shipping cost?

UK delivery is £2.95, and free on orders over £40. Every Duo and Triple ships free.

How do I pause or cancel my subscription?

Online, two clicks, no phone call. We send a reminder email before every delivery, and you can skip, pause or cancel any time between them.
