Lotion- I use coconut oil after I get out of the shower. It traps in moisture and really hydrates your skin. I usually throw on my house coat or wait 5 mins before putting on clothes so it has time to soak into my skin. The key here is using a small amount or else it can be a bit too greasy. Wipe off excess oil after 5 mins. I use a tiny amount to avoid having to do this! It also has a natural SPF 4 rating so it acts as a mild sunscreen as well.
Makeup Remover- I use coconut oil to remove my mascara and eye makeup at the end of the day. I rub a small amount in a circular motion onto my eyes and then wipe them after with a warm face cloth. It also hydrates the eye area! Bonus!
Massage Oil- I put a small amount in a container and add either 1 drop lavender oil or 1 drop peppermint oil to make a massage oil that will hydrate the skin. Peppermint smooths sore muscles and feet and the lavender is good for stress relief and relaxation.
Cuticle oil- I place coconut oil on my cuticles to soften them before pushing back my cuticles. It will hydrate your nails and soften your cuticles.
Lip Balm- I use it on my lips to smooth dry skin.
Scrub- I mix coconut oil with sugar to create a natural exfoliator that is good for dry skin and lips. I usually add 1 drop of peppermint oil for a minty effect.
Baby Ointment- Coconut oil has anti bacterial properties and works great to sooth diaper rash and redness. It is all natural and soaks in nicely to sooth a sore toosh.
Cheek Bone Highlighter- I use a tiny amount of coconut oil to highlight my cheekbones and to give my skin a nice glow.
Sunburn Remedy- The anti inflammatory benefits of coconut oil works great to sooth sunburnt skin.
Hair Shine/Anti-Frizz Serum- I rub a tiny amount of coconut oil between my hands and lightly comb my fingers through my hair to give it a nice shine and to de-frizz in the winter or when I’m somewhere humid.
