DESIGNED IN CYPRUS
PETA APPROVED BIKINIS!
There’s something magical about slipping into your favorite bikini or one-piece, feeling confident as the sun warms your skin and the waves call your name. At Kokoaka, we believe every piece you wear should feel like an extension of your confidence—stylish, sustainable, and made to last. That’s why today we’re sharing 5 essential tips to help your swimwear look gorgeous season after season. Because confidence that lasts is always in fashion.
The secret to durability starts with what the piece is made from. Look for:
Quality synthetic blends like nylon, polyester spandex, or recycled materials—they dry faster, resist fading and stretching.
Lining in both tops and bottoms helps reduce transparency and support shape.
At Kokoaka we design our swimwear to use soft yet durable fabric that keeps its shape even after many uses in sun, salt water, and chlorine.
Saltwater, chlorine, sunscreen, oils, and sweat all degrade fabric. A quick rinse with cool, fresh water (right after beach or pool) helps wash away damaging agents before they break down the fibers.
Use a mild detergent or specialized swimwear wash. Harsh soaps or bleach can weaken elastic and damage color.
Avoid wringing out swimwear—gently press to remove excess water.
Dry flat in shade. Direct sun can fade colors and weaken elastic; hanging may stretch out straps or shapes.
Even durable swimwear gets worn more than it can handle. If you have more than one piece, rotate them so no single bikini constantly bears all the wear. This also gives elastic & fabric time to recover between uses.
After it’s dry, store swimwear flat or folded—not hung by straps—for better shape retention.
Avoid rough surfaces (concrete, wooden benches etc.) which can snag fabric.
When putting on or taking off, avoid pulling on fabric directly with fingernails or jewelry; slide it over feet and hands instead.
The best swimsuit in the world still looks better with healthy skin. Remember to protect your skin (and your confidence) by using broad-spectrum sunscreen, moisturizing after sun exposure, and staying hydrated. A confident beach day is about more than just what you wear—it’s also how you take care of yourself.
At Kokoaka, our mission isn’t just to create beautiful swimwear—it’s to help you feel beautiful and confident every time you wear it. We stand behind quality, comfort, and styles that empower.
