Key Benefits
Coconut MCT Oil Benefits: For Face, Skin, Hair, And Teeth
Skincare, especially in cleansers, moisturizers and ointments
Fabulous in massage, especially if someone has to get right back to work.
Coconut MCT Oil For Face
The thinner nature of the product means there are myriad uses of Coconut MCT Oil for face treatments.
Importantly and specifically, it will not block the pores.
Emollient, it brings a soothing and softening action to creams, oils, and soaps.
It is hydrating, conditioning, and protective.
Importantly, as an ester, it also acts more like an emulsion, meaning it works brilliantly on products like skin cleansers, for example, that you may want to wash off.
Coconut MCT Oil For Skin
It’s no secret that skin loves oil. It’s easy to forget however, the importance of the organ, and just how much good oil does for the body.
Our skin is our largest organ, not only retaining all the rest of our gory bits in situ, but also moderating temperature, retaining water, and acting as a barrier against infection from the outside world.
Its lowest level, the stratum corneum is built almost like bricks, where lipids (fats) act as the mortar between them. The richer the lipid supply, the better our skin looks and works.
Nourishing the stratum corneum brings a smoothness to the skin, nourishes it, and makes it less prone to breaking and flaking. Coconut MCT oil penetrates fast and deeply, making it not only stronger and better hydrated but also protecting and conditioning it too.
It makes excellent anti-acne treatments, guarding against congested pores, and also anti-wrinkle and anti-aging treatments, enhanced, of course, by some Luscious Essential Oils.
Coconut MCT Oil For Hair Growth
We’ve spoken on the benefits of Coconut MCT Oil for skin and that, of course, translates across to the head, making it perfect for treatments for itchy, flaky scalps or dandruffs.
Whilst the jury is still out on whether MCT Coconut oil improves hair growth, it’s accepted that any massage that stimulates blood supply to the scalp probably does. With its emulsive action then, and the light non-greasy texture, it makes a fabulous option for scalp treatments because it will wash out so much easier after.
Despite the lightness of Coconut MCT oil, it is still incredibly rich, so avoid using it on hair that already leans towards being greasy. Instead, exploit its nourishing action on dry, curly, frizzy, and treated hair. Again, its easy-to-wash-out-action means less emphasis on shampooing later, great news for lightened and colored hairs.
Since it is now an ester, rather than an oil, and is lighter, it works wonderfully in volumizing preparations. Other oils, whilst nourishing, can leave heavier residue and thus a flattening effect on the hair.
Coconut MCT Oil For Teeth
Oil pulling is a treatment from Ayurvedic medicine that improves gum health.. Thinner and with a more neutral taste, oil pulling enthusiasts might better enjoy Coconut MCT for teeth.
Coconut MCT Oil For Sunburn
With its non-greasy, emollient, and anti-inflammatory action, it makes the perfect body oil for use after a day in the sun. Soothing and refreshing, Coconut MCT oil gives a light, healthy sun-kissed sheen that won’t spoil your sundress either.
