Skin Care Health with Coconut Oil

Jun 1, 2009 Author: Jen Hill | Filed under: Health Conscious Beauty, Kitchen Cupboard Beauty, Moisturizers, Skincare

One of my favorite beauty reviewers “Tashagogo” from Megsmakeup.com wrote a strong testimonial about the powers of coconut oil a few summers ago.Â Tasha’s words and Morjorie’s physique encouraged me to try, and have since incorporated the use of coconut oil in my daily beauty routine.

Most recently my daughters and I relied heavily on using coconut oil to soothe and repair the effects of our unfortunate first-of-the-summer sunburns, drat nab!Â I observed that by using coconut oil on my sunburn, not only did it heal and moisturize my skin; the peeling seemed less dramatic than in sunburns of the past.Â Viva la coconut!

This is an insightful, well-articulated YouTube video of Sean demonstrating the various health and skin benefits from the use of coconut oil.Â Really, really love this guy.Â Enjoy!

WOW! Guess I’ll have to pick some up. Where did you find/order yours? And are there any brands you recommend I should look for?

I picked up Yarrow’s Extra Virgin Coconut Oil at my local Whole Foods store for about $13. If you cannot stand the thought of “taking it to the head” as Sean suggests, you can ingest coconut oil capsules.

At work several of us are taking daily coconut oil directly or in capsule form. One of my co-workers is having a lot of health issues and we are hoping this will help her. I’ll be sure to follow up with our experiences!

My sister in law uses coconut oil on her toast in place of butter, AND she uses it when she whips up her body cream.
Coconut and Aloe are two things that are super good for your innards AND your outards! lol

I’ve been looking for a new moisturizer, but I hadn’t thought about using coconut oil. I’ve only used it on my hair, so I’ll have to see how it works on my skin.

Thanks for the reminder to give it a try.
