We are all going nuts for Coconut oil & who can blame us?! Coconut oil is a fantastic solution to many of our problems, be it dry skin, dull hair, digestive problems and even athletes foot.. This oil can work for you!!
Here are my Top uses for Coconut oil :
1. Glowing Skin
To brighten up even the dullest of skin, combine Coconut oil with brown sugar, mix equal parts of both and apply in light circular motions for a super charged exfoliation potion and rinse well to reveal your hydrated, supple, glowing skin.
2. Clean your makeup brushes
We all know how important it is to clean our makeup brushes and we are told by all the experts to keep these as free as possible from bacteria, this means regular cleaning of your brushes and we love to mix antibacterial washing up liquid & Coconut oil to give your brushes a really good clean while leaving them conditioned and soft.
3. Polish your pearly whites
If you are seeking nice white teeth but looking for a natural solution then this is it!! Mix Coconut oil with Baking soda until it is pasty enough to spread on a toothbrush & brush as normal to reveal a brighter whiter smile.
4. Long Natural Lashes
This is possibly the most effective yet simplest addition to any beauty routine, pop some Coconut oil onto a cotton bud and run along the lash line each evening before bed, do this for one month , take a before and after picture to see the results as they will be dramatic. Longer, fuller, conditioned lashes are only a little pot of Coconut oil away 😃
5. Keep your tummy happy
All stomach issues can be pretty serious so we would recommend you seek your doctors advise but adding just one tablespoon of Coconut oil to your diet per day can help treat ulcers and aid digestion.
6. Fat fighter
Eating Coconut oil can also keep your weight in check, research suggests that consuming this oil can help reduce waist circumference and abdominal obesity, plus Coconut oil contains fewer calories than other dietary fats.. A big bonus if your looking to manage your weight.
7. DIY Shaving Cream
Coconut oil not only gives you a seriously close shave but it hydrates the skin to boot!! Plus it is a delight for even the sensitive of skins.
8. Deodorise and Soften those feet
Our feet get a beaten on a daily basis.. Use the exfoliation mix above to scrub your feet at night follow with a generous layer of Coconut oil, pop some socks on .. 💤 and awaken to soft, smooth feet.. If you have athletes foot or a serious foot odour issue then please add a few drops of tea tree oil to your Coconut oil.
9. After Sun
You would think adding oil to burnt , lobster like skin would be a big no no .. Not the case with Coconut oil, apply the oil to your burnt areas for an instant burn relief and while this calms your skin it will also moisturise which in turn will reduce peeling .
10. Heavy duty Makeup remover
The beauty editors secret.. Use Coconut oil to remove heavy make up including seriously heavy eye make up with waterproof mascara .. Just rub a small amount onto your skin, leave for 3-5 minutes and remove with a warm face cloth.
