Coconut Oil is a true Beauty & Health Wonder

Coconut oil against age spots

Depending on their disposition and physical constitution, age spots appear in many people from about 50 years of age. These are actually harmless pigment deposits in the skin, which many people find to be optically disturbing. The use of coconut oil can prevent the appearance of age spots and also ensures that existing age spots become noticeably paler and therefore less noticeable.

Coconut oil as shaving gel against razor burn

Coconut oil as a shaving gel has several advantages: The razor glides over the oiled skin areas as smoothly as if you were using a shaving foam from the drugstore. Thanks to its nourishing properties, the oil also leaves behind the smoothest and most delicate skin feeling after shaving, promised! Especially when it comes to the typical "shaving spirit" with red dots, the coconut oil has soothing and at the same time nourishing properties. Attention: The bottom of the bath can become slippery!

Coconut oil against sunburn (sun protection & after sun cream)

Due to the thinning ozone layer, the aggressiveness of the sun is constantly increasing in Central Europe. Harmful UV radiation thus penetrates ever more strongly and stresses our skin. This is noticeable, for example, in the form of sunburn. And sunburn is by no means as harmless as many people think, because it can lead to the dreaded skin cancer. It is therefore important, on the one hand, to effectively prevent the occurrence of sunburn and, on the other hand, to treat existing sunburn as effectively as possible. This is achieved, for example, by using coconut oil. This soothes the skin, moisturizes and soothes irritation quickly. Coconut oil is also suitable for preventive use against sunburn, but the recommended period of exposure to sunlight should not be exceeded.

Coconut oil contains a natural sun protection factor of 4 and can therefore be used as a light sun protection during the transition period or as a sun oil on tanned skin. Even after sunbathing, it also has a cooling and moisturizing effect as an après-sun care.

Coconut oil is wonderfully suitable for use after sunbathing. Simply apply the coconut oil to the skin thoroughly. This soothes and moisturises the skin, so that you can enjoy your tan for a long time to come. Once you have burnt yourself lightly, coconut oil is a suitable remedy for calming the skin. Coconut oil soothes the redness and irritation more quickly and provides sufficient moisture to prevent the skin from starting to peel.

Conclusion: Coconut oil absorbs about 20 % of the harmful UV radiation and also protects against free radicals. At the same time it nourishes the skin, gives a subtle shine and contributes to the summer holiday feeling with its exotic coconut scent. In case of prolonged or strong sunlight the oil cannot replace a sunscreen, but it is a great substitute for short stays in the open air.

Coconut oil for a better complexion

Many people are dissatisfied with their skin appearance. They often complain about skin subunits, spots, pimples, wrinkles and so on. If you regularly use coconut oil for your skin and rub it in after showering or bathing, for example, you will notice a marked improvement in your own skin condition in the medium term.

Coconut oil against dry skin

Whoever has to suffer again and again from dry or cracked skin usually helps themselves with moisturizers from the supermarket or pharmacy. However, these products are expensive and contain sometimes questionable additives. It is much easier to combat dry skin by using coconut oil. It provides the skin with long-term moisture and prevents the dreaded feeling of tension.

We know from experience that coconut oil nourishes and moisturizes dry skin. Especially with dry skin and affected areas of the body, coconut oil with its rich care effect can be a great cosmetic product. This is ensured by the minerals, fatty acids and valuable antioxidants in the oil.

Coconut oil is also a real blessing for stressed feet. Simply rub the feet generously in the evening with coconut oil, cotton socks on top and the coconut oil transforms the feet into soft velvet paws during the beauty sleep. If the shoe pinches or the whole night was danced through, an extensive, relaxing foot massage is exactly the right thing. Simply use the coconut oil as a massage oil and pamper your feet with the rich oil.

Coconut oil as a nourishing and effective deodorant (without alcohol & aluminium)

It's natural for the human body to sweat. At rising temperatures, during physical exertion or even in case of illness, our body produces sweat. In itself, this is nothing bad, the only thing that bothers us about it is odour, which in most cases cannot be avoided.

When you start to sweat, it doesn't immediately mean that you smell sweat. The sweat odour does not develop until bacteria decompose in humid, warm body zones. This is where the antibacterial effect of lauric acid contained in coconut oil helps to prevent odours from developing in the first place.

A small drop of liquid coconut oil is enough to create a pleasant armpit climate. Simply melt a pea-sized portion in your hand and apply to the dried armpits after showering. The oil quickly absorbs without leaving a greasy film on the skin or clothing.

Especially when you shave your armpits, coconut oil is the better choice. Many deodorants are enriched with alcohol and fragrances. These artificial substances can get into the body more easily by small injuries by shaving and can thus be stored as toxins in the lymphs.

Since high-quality organic coconut oil has nothing of the kind in itself, it is much healthier, soothing and caring to use this natural deodorant substitute.

Conclusion: Thanks to its antibacterial lauric acid, coconut oil can also be used wonderfully as a natural organic deodorant. It inhibits the proliferation of odor-forming bacteria and has this pleasantly sweet scent, which immediately creates exotic images of the beach and palm trees in your head. Irritated, itchy skin on the armpits, for example after a shave, can also be soothed with the valuable coconut oil.

Coconut oil for foot care in foot bath & foot massage

Coconut oil as massage oil

Like any other oil, coconut oil can also be used as a massage oil. The vitamins and minerals in the natural coconut oil are good for the skin and have a pleasant scent of coconut and holiday.

Coconut oil for a nourishing wellness bath

For an exotic, fragrant and caring bath, add one or two spoons of coconut oil to the bath water. The oil dissolves quickly in warm water. The bath nourishes, relaxes and moisturises the skin to such an extent that it is no longer necessary to apply extra cream after bathing.

Coconut oil for nail care for beautiful nails & cuticles

Coconut oil for grazes and cuts

Coconut oil accelerates the healing of minor injuries by helping to regenerate the skin and protecting it from external influences. Due to its antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties, the oil also prevents infection of the wound.

Coconut oil for scar care and scar healing

Who hasn't had any scars and has already thought about what possibilities there are to treat the scars in such a way that they are no longer so visible. There are of course a lot of scar gels and scar creams stuffed with chemical substances. The coconut oil acts like a natural plaster, as its effect is antibacterial. The coconut oil should be used for the injury that has just occurred. Treatment with coconut oil is also very helpful for burns and painful sunburn. Rapid relief is achieved by the cooling effect and cell renewal is promoted. Scar care with coconut oil is therefore sensible for everyone.

The coconut oil is generously massaged several times a day with clean hands, such as a wound and healing ointment, onto the scar or a wound that is no longer bleeding. The oil quickly penetrates into the deeper layers of the skin and leaves a velvety soft feeling. Coconut oil supports the natural healing process and effectively helps the scar heal and fade faster. In addition, a plaster or wound dressing can be used to prevent the clothes from getting dirty. After an operation, the scar should be carefully dabbed several times a day. It is important to always wash your hands well beforehand. Once the injured area has calmed down, the oil can be massaged in in circular movements. If the fingertips are slightly moistened with water, the coconut oil can be transported better into the skin and penetrate into the existing cells.

Coconut oil as insect repellent

As pleasant as the delicate coconut scent of the oil is for us, it is unpleasant for insects. Mosquito bites and even tick bites can be prevented by covering the exposed body parts with a thin layer of coconut oil. Incidentally, the oil has a cooling effect, perfect for tropical summer holidays!

Coconut oil against warts

Due to its size and protective function, the skin also offers a large area of attack and is exposed to new pathogens on a daily basis. In order to protect and protect them against such attacks, coconut oil can be used for the skin with good experience. Warts are mostly harmless, but often bothersome and annoying. Especially in visible places such as the hands they are not particularly beautiful. Coconut oil can be used as a supportive therapy against warts - both preventive and for acute warts. After particularly risky situations, such as a visit to the swimming pool or walking barefoot in the sauna, coconut oil with its antiviral effect can be applied to feet and hands after showering.

If you are already suffering from a wart, coconut oil can be applied selectively. Here too, clean, disinfected hands or a clean cotton swab should be used. After application, cover the affected area with coconut oil with a plaster. For stubborn warts, a tincture of tea tree oil and coconut oil can also be helpful.
