The Best Chocolate-Infused Beauty Products That Will Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth

Just in time for Easter

In celebration of the Easter long weekend, we’ve rounded up the best chocolate-infused makeup and skincare products to ensure your sweet tooth is fully satisfied. 

In addition to the reasons we already love chocolate, as a skincare and makeup ingredient it actually contains many beauty benefits.

Cocoa, in its pure form, is full of minerals – especially zinc, copper, magnesium and iron – which increase energy levels, aid hair growth and repair skin. Moreover, the anti-oxidant properties in chocolate help fight free radicals that abuse your skin, meaning that chocolate has an anti-ageing quality. 

Over this Easter, harness the benefits of cocoa and try out these chocolate-based beauty products. 

1. Too Faced Melted Chocolate Liquified Lipstick, $32

This lipstick is just like eating actual chocolate. The long-lasting formula is created with antioxidant rich cocoa to protect your lips and gives off a strong – but not overpowering – chocolate scent.
