C.O.P.A. Cabana

C.O.P.A. Soaps

Today’s forecast: hard, falling objects.

Shampoo, conditioner, face wash, and other bottles will pelt you like angry rocks from a vengeful god. You will be bruised, battered, and severely pissed.

Toss the bottles and replace them with one do-it-all bar of C.O.P.A. soap. The name is an acronym for the coconut, olive, palm, and almond oils used as the base for every handmade bar. Only essential oils are added to scent the long-lasting soaps you can use to scrub your face, hair, and body.

Feeling stressed? Try Vetiver Peat. Made from oil imported from India, it works on the central nervous system to calm the senses — and does wonders for the complexion. If you’re bummed, Shea (with essence of grapefruit) raises the spirits. A little sketched-out about handmade soap? Fear not: These won’t clog your pores, leave a filmy residue, or dry your skin.

Just be careful while driving today. Nothing can be done about that cup of coffee you’re going to spill on your pants.
