Coconut Oil.

So, I'm not going to write a long drawn out post about all the uses of coconut oil instead I'm going to refer you to a post by the ever-hilarious Jenna Marbles -> THIS changed my life, or at least my skin forever! I am in love. I haven't ventured too far from the hair and skin uses of coconut oil, but I want to try cooking with! I don't love the taste of coconut  so I need to find coconut oil that the taste has been taken out of (yay technology!) before I will use it to good.

Here's what I use coconut oil for:
  • My new tattoo, I used bactrim zinc ointment for the first week then coconut oil after that!
  • My legs before I shave (silky smooth!)
  • My legs after I shave (again smoooooth!)
  • My legs before I go out (shiny and defined!)
    Instead of lotion (VERY lightly or you get oily!)
  • Deep hair conditioner (let it sit 5-10 min before the shower then shower as usual)
  • Reduce stretch marks
  • Lip balm
  • Before bed on my elbows and hands to make them soft
  • When I'm going out in the sun for a little protection and to help me tan!
  • After I'm done tanning to soothe my sunburn!
Check out Jenna Marble's awesome article on coconut oil, she will inspire you!
