7 Beauty Uses For Coconut Oil

17:00

Coconut Oil is traditionally used when cooking, but recently, lots of people have joined the hype of using it as a beauty product - it has more uses than many of the standard beauty products on the market. So grab yourself a big jar and try some of my favourite ways to use it.


Moisturiser
Use as a moisturiser to hydrate the skin, reduce the appea
rance of scars and stretch marks and decrease wrinkles.

Body Scrub
Mix equal parts of coconut oil with either sugar or coffee to make your very own DIY body scrub!

Lip Balm
Apply coconut oil to your lips before bed and wake up with smooth, hydrated lips! Alternatively, mix with sugar to make a quick and easy lip scrub.

Cuticle Oil
Massage coconut oil into the cuticles to help soften and strengthen nails and prevent any splitting.

Hair Treatment
Separate hair into sections and apply coconut oil, focusing on roots and bringing down to the ends. Leave for 20-30 minutes before washing out thoroughly to strengthen hair and leave if feeling soft and shiny!

Makeup Remover
Apply coconut oil onto the skin using a cotton pad and gentle wipe over the face and eye area to remove even the toughest of makeup.

Shaving Cream
Rub coconut oil into the skin before shaving to help prevent cuts or razor burn and leave the skin feeling silky smooth!

If you know of any other ways to use coconut oil which I haven't mentioned above, please leave them in the comments!
