Whenever a celebrity uses a certain beauty product, it becomes such a big hit. Oprah Winfrey is a good example. In her "O-list," she featured Acca Kappa’s travel toothbrush, which was the coolest way to get fresh on the go. As expected, with a little boost from the queen of talk, the brand has become very popular.
Acca Kappa has been the trademark product line of H. Krull and Company since 1869. Its products include brooms, face powder, ear washers and brushes. This family-owned business still operates out of its original 1904 building in Treviso, Italy, in the Veneto region.
The company believes that the pride and passion of the impressive Acca Kappa heritage infuses positive energy into every product. This is not difficult to believe once you have experienced the freshness and beauty of Acca Kappa’s White Moss fragrance, hand-wash products, shaving kits, and other accessories.
The company is a living example of continuity, which is a testament to excellence. The fourth generation of family members runs the business by focusing on high-quality materials, functionality and design. Because Acca Kappa was built upon a simple personal-care product, the brush has remained useful and fashionable all these years, and is still a cornerstone of the company’s market share today.
Aside from the brushes, Acca Kappa’s White Moss line is very popular and appeals to both men and women. This European secret to skincare evokes sweet, warm, sensual notes of wood, amber and moss. The fresh, clean scent of this collection is derived from two Mediterranean plants. The first is lavender, with its marvelous blossom and delicate perfume, known since ancient times for its relaxing and soothing qualities. The second is juniper, with its fragrant wood and balsamic berries. The White Moss range includes fragrance, shave foam, shaving cream, after-shave emulsion, deodorant, hydrating shampoo, shower gel, whirlpool oil, soap, body lotion and hand cream.
If you want to smell like a Venetian garden, start off with the Calycanthus soap. This all-vegetable-based moisturizing formula is rich, delicate, and ideal for all skin types. For the non-soap gals, try the Calycanthus shower gel. This rich foaming shower gel gently cleanses, tones and revitalizes the body. It contains aromatic Calycanthus flower extract combined with rice-bran oil and glutamic acid to nourish and moisturize the skin, leaving it soft and silky smooth.
After cleansing, it is necessary to moisturize the skin to avoid a dry and flaky appearance. The Calycanthus hydrating body emulsion contains wild rose extract (which tones, soothes and energizes the skin), apple extract (rich in antioxidants) and fruit acid (fights free radicals and loss of elasticity). With the enchanting fragrance of the Calycanthus flower, this moisturizing emulsion leaves the skin soft and velvety smooth.
Deodorants nowadays are too harsh, which leave the armpits irritated and dark. The Calycanthus natural deodorant spray is alcohol-free and works gently to eliminate odor while maintaining the skin’s natural physiology. It contains unique softening properties ideal for sensitive skin. The non-bacterial action guarantees long-lasting protection.
I started using the Calycanthus soap, lotion and eau de toilette a week ago. My sister also became addicted to the collection. My favorite is the Calycanthus eau de toilette because of its fresh, floral scent. The unique essence of the Calycanthus flower is blended with notes of jasmine, orange blossom, honey and musk. It has a sparkling quality that manages to capture the aroma of honey without being overly sweet. I love this scent because it is spring in a bottle. This is a simple statement of beauty – a poignant floral with a hint of citrus lingers while drying down on the skin.
Indulging in Acca Kappa’s Calycanthus collection is definitely giving love to oneself. It definitely belongs on your must-have list.
