Summer Sun Essentials

As the UK weather takes on it’s own tropical properties - summer heat wave one day, spectacular thunder storms the next, the time of year for travel to warmer climes is upon us once more.

Is there anything more exciting than planning a capsule wardrobe that mainly consists of swimwear and cocktail attire or packing a suitcase full of holiday treats for a week in the sunshine? With an endless obsession for travel and our hearts and origins being firmly planted in Hawaii, here at Connock London, taking a summer vacation is top of our Most Favourite Things To Do In The World list!

A safely acquired, golden tan and desirable holiday wardrobe takes prep and planning and we’re on hand to help with both.

All our products are formulated with Kukui Oil – an ingredient that contains some outstanding skin-conditioning properties. You can read more about this and all the ingredients used in our products here.

Used by Hawaiians for centuries, this beautifully emollient oil penetrates the skin improving suppleness and elasticity as well as soothing minor skin irritations. All of which go to make our products wonderful travel companions!

We always take a bottle of Comforting Body Wash away with us – perfect for a post beach or pool fragrant shower with a nourishing lather to gently cleanse and condition the skin.

To help prolong a tan and protect de-hydrated skin, apply a layer of our Hydrating Body Lotion. Its lightweight formula melts instantly on application meaning you’re not left with a sticky, greasy feel on a warm summer’s evening – and it’s the perfect base layer for a pre-perfume spritz.

If ever there was a fragrance destined for summer holidays, it’s our Kukui Eau de Parfum. Blended to reflect the soul of the Hawaiian Islands, it contains floriental notes of Gardenia flower, Italian Bergamot, Moroccan Rose, White Jasmine and Calla Lily. Loved by Grazia Magazine and our customers alike, this is one holiday essential you won’t want to be without. 

Speaking of which, if you’re on the hunt for beautiful swimwear or covetable beach to bar cover-ups, you need to take a look at Biondi Couture. With an online shop here and a wonderfully summery boutique in the heart of Chelsea, this is a one-stop destination for everything you need for your sunshine destination.

We popped in recently for a pre-summer holiday stock up and loved seeing our Connock London products alongside so many beautiful bikinis and must-have summer accessories.

Summer has well and truly arrived so don’t forget your passport and sunglasses – we’ve got you covered for the rest!
