The Goods: Coconut Oil
The first time I heard about the benefits of coconut oil was last summer when styling a Lexus commercial. One of the actresses had long, long, long hair — I’m talking Totally Hair Barbie. Coconut oil was her trick! I was told to saturate my hair in the oil for a few hours, resulting in healthy and super long locks.
Though I’m now addicted to this natural oil, it was actually Steph of A Solo Affair who got me hooked. Steph raved about the benefits of coconut oil, including softened skin, hydrated hair, reduced signs of aging, an easy makeup remover, and a natural sunscreen. In fact, this oil does much more with 160 + uses, #152 Goo Gone is one of my favourites.
With Cliniderm as the first The Goods feature, this is the perfect product to follow, as it goes hand-in-hand with my fight against eczema. Coconut oil is the perfect nighttime moisturizer. Each night I use coconut oil on my face, including under my eyes where I have eczema. While I like to use excess oil, allowing it to soak in overnight, use to your discretion and preference. This product is an amazing natural moisturizer, and hydrates even the most sensitive of skin. Find it at most health food stores.
Disclaimer: your skin may break out when initially using the oil — this is because the oil works to extract bacteria (helping to reduce blackheads). Remember this and try your best to ignore blemishes, as soon this shall pass.
