Botanical Hawaiian lotions bring the scent of a Hawaiian vacation into your home
If you have ever been to the Aloha State, among your most vivid memories are most likely the abundance of floral, tropical scents that permeate the air. In fact, neuroscientists say that scent is one of the most evocative of our senses; a whiff of perfume or roses can transport us back in time to a particular place and event (this was actually the basis of a humorous novel by Seattle author Tom Robbins back in the 1980s).
That may be as good a reason as any to use botanical lotion from Hawaii. Not only does Hawaiian lotion bring back those memories, it also confers many healthy benefits to the skin.
It Goes Way Back
Polynesian women have long been legendary for their physical beauty; more than one lovesick sailor lost his heart to an island girl over the centuries (you may perhaps remember the story of the HMS Bounty). Part of the reason is genetic, to be sure; however, a lot of the credit goes to their liberal use of botanical lotion.
Like the Ayurvedic medical traditions of India and Chinese medicine, healing traditions among Polynesian peoples were centered around treating the whole person, not simply a narrow range of physical symptoms. A Polynesian healer was often also a priest-shaman, and would be called on to treat spiritual and emotional ailments as well, which were believed to be the cause of physical disorders. Massage was a very common form of treatment; traditional botanical lotion made from locally-available plants was used as a lubricant.
Carrying On The Tradition
Modern manufacturers of hawaiian lotion use the same ingredients that have been used by Pacific Island peoples for centuries. Coconut oil – itself rich in health benefits – is often the basis of such lotions. To this coconut base is added the essence of native tropical fruits, such as mango, passion fruit and guava. Pineapple is also another ingredient often used in hawaiian lotion today, although it is not traditional; pineapple is native to South America and the Caribbean, and was not introduced to Hawaii until the early 19th Century.
But don't let that stop you from exploring the rich variety of lotions from Hawaii and the South Pacific, which also use floral essences of jasmine, oleander and orchids. Not only will you enjoy healthier, more attractive skin, you'll have another chance to visit those tropical islands through the sensual delight of smell.
