Virgin Coconut Oil - 150g, Zoya Goes Pretty ®, 150 g

This wonderful coconut oil smells absolutely gorgeous. 100% natural & cold pressed, it has a pure white colour & a superb coconut aroma.

As a moisturiser, coconut oil absorbs very readily into the skin and keeps it soft, but not greasy. More of a coconut 'butter' at normal room temperature, it is softer than shea butter and melts quickly on the skin. If you kept it in a warm place it will melt into a light oil.

Use:

Coconut oil can be used as an excellent all over body moisturiser. It helps to reduce chronic skin dryness and aids the removal of the outer layer of dead skin cells, making the skin smoother. The small molecular structure of coconut oil allows for easy absorption through the skin, giving it a soft, smooth texture.

Organic coconut oil is wonderful to use as a hair conditioner as it softens the hair and conditions the scalp. Using the coconut oil as a pre-wash conditioner can help combat dandruff. Coconut oil is famed for its ability to strengthen the structure of damaged, devitalized hair being an effective lubricator. It also softens the hair shaft through the action of minerals such as magnesium, potassium, calcium, and iron. The best way to apply the coconut oil is to massage the oil gently into the scalp and leave for up to half an hour before shampooing out. You can leave on as long as you wish, but this will make it harder to shampoo out as it cools!

Contraindications:

Due to the 100% solid fatty acid content, coconut oil should not be used on oily, large-pored or acne-prone skin, as it can further enlarge pores or clog them.
