Tip of the day! 💡
We love to keep a full stock of Apoterra exfoliating mud and Live Botanical trial sizes on deck. First of all, they are great to grab-and-go for any travels you have planned. But more importantly, since we don’t offer exchanges or returns, we think minis are the best way to really get to know a product before you invest in the full size!

P.S. no travel is complete without the Live Botanical skin repair balm in your first-aid kit. Treats rashes, bites, cuts, burns and breakouts with ease.

Finding the perfect fit takes time. As seasons change, you may find your skincare routine is not working quite the same as it did in the warmer months. Autumn is a great time to exfoliate deeply, bringing fresh skin to the surface after a summer in the sun. During this season, our skin needs heavier balms and oils to protect our barrier from the elements.

We pride ourselves on the time we take with our customers. To hear about your skin health, what ingredients you avoid, the results you want, and to ensure our recommendations are in alignment with what you actually need.

If you are on the hunt for something new, allow us to guide you! We use and love the products on our shelves, so ask for our expertise next time you are in need of something new. Your feedback on products over time allows us to find the skincare routine of your dreams.

We love green beauty as much as you do - come chat with a green beauty expert!

“Making time to shop at Coral Story during a recent trip to Portland is one of the best retail decisions I’ve ever made! The owner of the store is lovely and knows her products, so shopping with her is a great experience. She made fun, thoughtful, and practical recommendations while still giving me plenty of time and space to browse comfortably. I had such a great time that I plan to shop Coral Story online regularly, until I’m able to visit in Portland again.”

See you in the Green Haus Coral Story Beauty 5-8pm

Changing seasons can be really hard on our skin and bodies. A facial with Morning Dove ensures you get the skin reset you need before the weather changes, and a moment of deep relaxation will help you settle peacefully into the change.

Transitions into new seasons are one of the best times to get a facial. Our skin can view these periods of transition as a reason to break out or become irritated/inflamed if we are not supporting our barrier properly. After we have soaked up the summer sun, a little exfoliation and massage will help you step into fall feeling renewed.

Come get the skin support you need. We are here for you in every season.
