Loka - skin care range

Product Guide

Chimes Spa Retreat is extremely pleased to introduce our new skin care range - Loka. For many years we have sought a good skin care range that is natural and affordable, a product where all the development costs have focussed on the product and its ingredients rather than on its marketing name and brand. We believe our search is over. If you care about your skin you won’t be disappointed.
LoKa Skin Essentials are made in small batches for people who are looking for a pure, fresh and natural range of skin care products. Premium active ingredients and pure essential oils are chosen for the exceptional benefits each contributes. Our Western Australian produced creams, lotions, gels, masks and serums are highly concentrated nutrition for your skin.

Loka offers skin care that is totally free of:

  • genetically modified botanicals
  • mineral or paraffin oils
  • petroleum products
  • parabens/synthetic preservatives
  • synthetic colours or fragrances
  • sodium laurel or laureth sulfate
  • chemical detergents

Not only does this product guide list the ingredients for individual products but includes a general information guide to individual ingredients and their respective characteristics. In this age of demanding information on labels, countries of origin and ingredients you may find it refreshing to not only see what ingredients are in the individual products but also read what benefits derive from the specific ingredients. We think it's important to know what you're putting on your skin.
