Coconut oil: good for skin & hair

Coconut oil is made from fresh coconuts and the scent gives you a wonderful tropical feeling. Because the oil solidifies at room temperature, it usually has a solid structure and is therefore also called coconut fat. Coconuts are packed with vitamins and this oil is therefore lovely to use for skin & hair!

What is coconut oil?

Coconut oil is naturally made from fresh coconuts, and the scent quickly transports you to tropical climes. The oil solidifies at 25°C and therefore usually has a solid state. It is often referred to as coconut fat. Coconuts are packed with vitamins, making this oil very suitable for use on skin & hair.

Coconut oil is very versatile; you can use it for baking and cooking, but it also works well in your skin and hair care routine. Coconut oil is made from coconuts, which consist of coconut water and flesh. Coconut oil is made from the flesh.

Coconut oil consists for the most part of saturated fatty acids, which is unique for a nut oil. The saturated fatty acids ensure that your skin and hair absorb the oil well and can retain moisture. They are also great at restoring the skin's natural barrier function. Coconut oil contains, among other things:

  • Lauric acid: helps to repair skin and hair, also with blemishes

  • Caprylic acid: purifying, nourishes the skin, combats irritation, acts as an antioxidant

  • Vitamin E: helps prevent premature skin ageing

How do you use coconut oil?

Skin cleanser

Because oil dissolves oil, coconut oil can be effective as a cleansing oil. Massage well into the skin for 60 seconds and then remove the oil with a cloth.

Skincare

Coconut oil provides good hydration for the skin, helps with blemishes and ensures quick skin recovery. In addition, it is a lovely hydrating and moisturising oil. Use coconut oil as the last step in your skincare routine. Do be careful not to use too much coconut oil. This can have the opposite effect and clog the pores, thereby causing blemishes and blackheads.

Eye make-up remover

Coconut oil removes (waterproof) make-up very easily. Put a little coconut oil on a cotton pad and gently rub it over your eyes and skin. Your make-up is gone in no time!

Hands and feet

Coconut oil softens and cares for your nails, hands and feet. Massage a small amount onto your nails, cuticles, hands and feet.

Soothing oil

Use coconut oil to care for dry patches on your skin.

Anti-frizz oil

Warm the coconut oil between your fingers and gently distribute it through the hair. Not only does it combat frizz, but your hair also gets a beautiful, natural shine!


Bath oil

For the ultimate caring moment of relaxation, mix 2 spoons of coconut oil (optionally with a few drops of your favourite Essential oil) into the warm bathwater.

Oil pulling

Oil pulling helps to reduce certain bacteria in the mouth, helps against bad breath and improves oral health! Take a tablespoon of oil and swish it around the mouth for 15 to 20 minutes. Then spit the oil out again.

Coconut oil can therefore have many different benefits. The cold-pressed, unrefined variant is the best for this.
