Having grown up in the tight-knit Jewish community that is America’s North East, we’re big fans of Ahava. Whenever family friends made the pilgrimage to the holy land, they’d return bearing armfuls of creams and cleansers from the preeminent Dead Sea brand, which uses mineral-rich mud from the lifeless body of water to fortify its entire skincare line. As the company has steadily gained ground in the U.S. (Kristin Davis is now its spokesperson, and you can find the collection at a myriad of boutiques as well as at your local Duane Reade), we’ve watched with a tinge of pride, knowing from whence it came. For its latest launch, Ahava has added skin-type specific botanicals and a blend of macadamia nut and sunflower oil to its softening, soothing mineral complex, yielding a line of natural shower creams that keep skin clean without stripping it of moisture. There are two scents for each skin type, as well as a gentle, micro-peeling formula for daily exfoliation. If you’re looking for a good post-shower follow-up, we’d highly recommend applying the Dermud Intensive Nourishing Body Cream and daydreaming about a leisurely float in Cleopatra’s favorite spa destination.
