Hydration: Coconut oil is made up of medium chain fatty acids which help to reduce dryness and allow your skin to retain moisture.
Protects skin: Coconut oil provides a protective barrier, helping shield skin from environmental toxins, dirt and other icky stuff you’re faced with everyday.
Smoothen skin: Rub some coconut oil onto your skin and you’ll immediately feel its soft, smoothing effect. And over time it can actually help to improve texture.
Minimise wrinkles and fine lines: Coconut oil can actually help to diminish the signs of aging when used regularly. It soaks into skin and makes those little lines and wrinkles appear far less obvious.
Calms temporary redness: This nutty oil has a soothing, calming effect and can help reduce temporary redness when it pops up.
Antioxidants: With antioxidant and phytonutrient (plant compounds) components, coconut oil for face can help boost your nutrient factor and fight against environmental stressors that accelerate signs of aging.
Base for exfoliants: If you’re into DIY skin care, coconut oil makes a great exfoliant when mixed with a granular substance like sugar or coarse sea salt. Just mix the two, rub it all over your face, and wipe with a warm, wet cloth.
Soothes irritated skin: If you’re prone to irritations or sensitivity, coconut oil can help to alleviate any discomfort and provide soothing relief.
