Say goodbye to cuticles. Using your finger, dab a small amount of oil on each of your cuticles and allow it to absorb. Coconut oil will strengthen your nails and moisturize the delicate cuticles, making your hands look younger.
Under eye cream
The skin under your eyes is thin and delicate and therefore prone to fine lines, puffiness and dark circles. If you hate the idea of spending a lot of money on expensive eye creams, then treat them with coconut oil. Just gently rub a pinch between your fingers to warm it up before applying under your eyes.
Say goodbye to frizz
Rub a pea-sized amount of coconut oil between your fingers to warm it up, then work it into your hair section (about two centimeters) for all-day frizz protection. If you have thicker, thicker hair, apply coconut oil from the mid-shaft to the ends for added frizz control.
Bonus: It also leaves hair super shiny and soft!
Highlighter
Glowing, fresh skin is all the rage! But if that doesn’t come naturally to you, just dab some liquefied coconut oil on the tops of your cheekbones, and just above your browbones for hydrated skin that looks like it’s lit from within.
Makeup removal
Just a teaspoon (or less) can remove a day’s worth of makeup with ease. Massage slightly warm liquefied coconut oil into the skin, then rinse with warm water. To make your own coconut oil makeup remover wipes, melt 1 teaspoon of coconut oil per cotton ball in a microwave-safe container. Then spread the cotton pads in an even layer and let them absorb the oil overnight. Store them in the same container or plastic bag and throw them in your carry-on or gym bag for easy makeup removal on the go.
Body exfoliation
Mix half a cup of sea salt or sugar with an equal amount of melted coconut oil, then use your hands to rub it into any rough patches of skin. The scrub moisturizes while removing dead skin cells. The result: baby-soft skin. Add a little more salt or sugar for the tougher skin on your feet and elbows.
Shaving cream
Running out of shaving cream? Coconut oil will save you! Simply heat the jar under water and apply to legs before shaving. Your razor will glide smoothly, allowing for an ultra-close shave, and your legs will be oil-moisturized in the process.
