Oh, how much can say about this oil?!,
June 28, 2011By MsVelve
"There aren't enough words to express how much I love this Nutiva Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil! I got one jar for cooking and one for my skin and hair. And, now, I don't ever want to be without it. I went no-poo about 6 weeks ago and my scalp and hair is so happy!
My eczema and dandruff has been under control like never before since I started using Nutiva Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil. If you have eczema and/or dandruff, soak your hair and scalp with coconut oil, put a plastic cap on (to avoid a big mess) for about 2 hours and then vigorously wash it out thoroughly with very warm forceful water.
Apply a detangler (not the spray-on leave-in type); rinse it out after 3 minutes and while hair is soaking wet, massage in a small to medium amount (depending on hair length) of coconut oil as a leave-in conditioner. Don't worry coconut oil is absorbent and it doesn't cause oil stains. Style hair as usual..."
Most of the reviews here seem to focus on the taste, versatility, and health benefits of this oil in cooking, but coconut oil does so much more than just taste great! With the 108 ounces of coconut-y goodness in this product, you'll have plenty to use all over the home. Use it as:
- moisturizer, especially in harsh winters or if you suffer from eczema or acne.
- a hair mask, especially if you have curly/frizzy hair or dandruff.
- a natural Monistat substitute!
- massage oil, especially if you have poor circulation.
- a natural Preparation H substitute!
- diaper ointment, safe for cloth diapers, too!
- insect repellant.
- makeup remover.
- deodorant.
And finally to those complaining of the plastic jar, most of us, especially those who use a lot of coconut oil, would just as soon accept the "horrifying" risks of plastic jars rather than paying a fortune for shipping glass jars. We don't all have extra bags of cash lying around.
