Coconut oil!


Just a quick post to show my appreciation for coconut oil! I'd seen this used as a makeup remover and thought it would be good for me as my skin breaks out if I use anything on it, and I mean anything :( The first time I used it I thought it was amazing, just rubbed it all over my face and wiped my makeup off and it worked a treat. Leaving my skin all lovely and soft, I thought I'd found my miracle makeup remover. Sadly this is not it. After a couple of days my skin broke out into a spotty, red mess. Funnily the same two patches on either side of my nose, so back to square 1 on that one! BUT this is an actual miracle product. I'm sure I'm late to the party with this one but I use to on my arms and my nails and it has helped with my dry skin and cuticles noticeably in a week. I've also left it in my hair overnight as a conditioner. I have use it on my manky feet and they also look 10 times better.

 
On the left is a scrub I made, looks gross but my skin felt amazing after using it. I used olive oil, coconut oil and salt, just throwing everything in. The appealed to me as it was easy to make with stuff just lying around my house. Any tips on how to use coconut oil?? I have just discovered it and it seems to have no bounds with how awesome it is :D
