My Favorite Skin Care!

I'd laike to share with you my favorite skin care product! It's simple, it's one ingredient, it's easy to find and get, it smells great and you don't have to worry about keeping it out of the hands of little ones as it's edible and good for you!

It's coconut oil!

I use coconut oil after a shower, after shaving, and daily just to keep my skin moisturized and smelling good! Some may think it's oily but actually once you massage it into your skin it absorbs fairly quickly. I've never had it stain any of my clothes!

Coconut oil is also reasonably priced, it may seem expensive at the initial cost but you only need such a small amount that it lasts for a very long time, so in the long run it's actually cheaper than other moisturizers!

My tip. I purchased a bamboo spoon stick that I keep with my jar of cocnut oil under my bathroom sink to make it easy to scoop out my daily dose of coconut oil.

Coconut oil has been known to be beneficial in many different ways, here are a few...

~The fatty acids in cocnut oil can encourage the body to burn fat and provides a quick energy to the body and brain when eaten.

~It may boost heart health. Several populations around the world have thrived for generations eating substantial amounts of cocnut oil along with other whole fruits, vegetables and fish.

~Coconut oil has antimicrobial effects when used topically and can be used as a mouthwash.

~It can protect the teeth, hair, and skin and improves the moisture content of dry skin. It has even been found helpful with eczema symptoms.

I like to buy cocnut oil that has the least amount of processing done to it, that would be cold pressed or expeller pressed, raw unrefined coconut oil. Simply put, this means that they have not used high heats in the processing of the plant. When high heats are used it can damage all the good parts of the cocnut oil, and you want to be sure that you keep that so that your body can use it!

Be sure you take some time to pamper you. Stress may be higher than usual and you deserve to be loved by youself. God loves you and He created this wonderful plant for our health and enjoyment, so give it a try! Let me know what you think!
