Chocolate Show Time Again: Chocolate For Skin

chocolate and skin careCBS News provides highlights from the annual New York Chocolate Show, a fascinating chocolate experience whether you are in “the business” or not.  While many of the show’s chocolate offerings are for eating, chocolate or cocoa butter is becoming a more popular ingredient in skin care products.

Here’s what one chocolate business owner has to say about the health benefits of chocolate skin care products.

“Vanessa “Chocolate Girl” Bard, the founder of Gnosis Chocolate Body Care, told Lee that between 60 to 80 percent of what you put on your skin goes into your bloodstream.

“What’s better than putting chocolate on your skin as a way of nourishing yourself?” Bard said. “(Because) chocolate, we all know, (is) extremely high in antioxidants, and minerals, and vitamins, so it turns out you can nourish yourself with chocolate soap.”
