I’ve been turning to coconut oil for everything lately. From after-sun to conditioner, toothpaste to tasty recipes, and everything in between, its superpowers are endless! Look for unrefined, organic, virgin, and raw to maximize benefits.
- Hand lotion
- Chap stick/lip balm (BEST healer of chapped lips, works instantly!)
- After sun lotion
- Hair conditioner/mask (melt with heat, apply to wet or dry hair. If dry, let sit for a few hours and wash out in shower)
- Sweet potato topper
- Whitening toothpaste
- Eye cream (rub around/under eyes)
- Baking and/or sautéing oil
- Face lotion (rub on dry skin – only dry areas NOT entire face, it is oil!)
- Defrizz (rub small amount in hands and apply to top of hair to stop frizz)
- Body scrub (combine with sea salt, sugar, or ground coffee beans to exfoliate)
- Eye makeup remover
- Eczema treatment (rub on inflamed areas)
- Popcorn topper (better than butter!)
- Massage oil (just melt a little)
- Moisturizer (apply to body after shower)
- Diaper cream
- Cuticle healer (softens and fights bacteria)
- Foot cream
- Anti-inflammatory
- Digestive aid
