Properties and benefits of coconut oil: the new must-have product

Coconut oil is made up of natural ingredients that have many positive effects on the skin, hair and general health. Sold in Quebec with or without its captivating scent, it’s used in the creation of many other products, as it’s rich in essential fatty acids.

Go coco-nutty on your skin...

Easily absorbed by the skin, coconut oil deeply hydrates dry skin. Thanks to its soothing qualities, it’s great for treating redness and is as effective at soothing sunburn as aloe vera. And, yup, you’ve heard right, it can be applied from your head right down to your toes! You can even use it on the more delicate parts of your face and hands (it works like a dream on nails and cuticles). The oil, which contains a cocktail of ingredients rich in Vitamins A and E, is especially good at treating dry lips and the area around the eyes, which will look fuller after just one application.

… and your hair!

Coconut oil is extremely nourishing for hair because of its high compatibility with hair protein. This is a revelation for anyone who has tried every trick in the book to treat their dry, damaged hair! Apply as a conditioner after your shampoo.

Other amazing properties

The list of uses for coconut oil is long. For example, it can be used as a makeup remover or as shaving gel, and this magical oil (when mixed with baking soda) can even help whiten teeth and eliminate the bacteria that cause bad breath! To do so, combine a spoonful of oil with baking soda and use it to rinse your mouth once a day for 20 minutes.
