#Trend Alert: Coconut Oil To The Rescue!!



 My 6 Beauty Uses For Coconut Oil!!!




Known as “Tree of Life”

In many countries coconut is known as “Tree of Life”.  The coconut provides a nutritious source of meat, juice, milk and oil. I am loving the new trend that is using coconut oil to my beauty regime. Even though it’s a “new” trend, it has been around for generations.
 
1.) Makeup Remover: 
 I recently found out that another option to remove my makeup is to use coconut oil. Place a small amount on a cotton pad and gently rub it in circles around your eyes, after that rise it off with warm water. You eye’s will feel moisturized. 

 2.) Hair Mask: 
Use 2-3 tables spoons of coconut oil. I like to heat it up (DON’T USE IT STRAIGHTAWAY! Make sure you leave it for few minutes) message gently, focusing on the ends (if you have curly hair, avoid the roots, it tends to leave your hair looking greasy). You can leave it in for 30 minutes or even sleep with it overnight- just make sure to use an unwanted pillow case. BEWARE it does stain the sheet!

3.) Coconut Oil To The Frizzy Rescue: 
 To keep wild hair controlled, warm up a bit of coconut oil between your hands and run your fingers through your hair. The oil will help smooth the strands without looking greasy.

4.) Super Dry Skin: 
Coconut Oil has moisturizing powers, it absorbs to the skin faster than many lotion, and a small amount goes a long way. Here is a recipe you can use to make your own home made lotion using coconut oil http://wellnessmama.com/3765/luxurious-homemade-lotion-recipe/ .

  5.) Silky Lips: 
Treat your lips by dabbing a little coconut oil on your lips using your fingers. It’s a good conditioner for your lips! Perfect for both summer and winter!


6.)   Cuticle Diva
 If you have stubborn unwanted cuticles, rub a small amount of coconut oil on your cuticles. It will soften the cuticles allowing you to push it back.
