Here are a Few of My Favorite Things...




There are so many benefits in using coconut oil for almost every part of your body. Here are a few of my go-to favorites I want to share with you!

1. My kids. I put coconut oil on almost any skin ailment my children have. I started with diaper rashes, to mystery rashes. If they get a boo-boo or if they just need some moisturizing, Coconut oil fixes it all and the reason is because it is made up of mostly medium chain fatty acids. Due to these fats, coconut oil will retain the moisture content of the skin, as the fats eliminate moisture loss through the pores on skin. Coconut oil is made up of 3 fatty acids all of which have strong disinfectant and antimicrobial properties, which is why I LOVE using it on my germy, adorable kids!

2. Energy Boost. Having kids, working full time and trying to run my own business is VERY tiring, but coconut oil again saves the day! Capric, Caprylic, and Lauric acids are the 3 fatty acids found in coconut oil. They are easily broken down chains of fatty acids, meaning that they become usable energy in a quick and efficient way. This can be a major boost to your energy levels before a workout, cleaning frenzy or whatever you need to do next to seize the day, which is why these powerful acids have also been linked to weight loss and management. Another plus for Coconut Oil!!! (especially after having kids) 

3. Makeup Remover. I can take off all my makeup in one fail swoop. Coconut oil is safe for removing all your makeup especially on your eyes. I was getting really tired of scrubbing my eyeballs for a half hour just to wake up in the morning and still have raccoon eyes. Coconut oil is chemical free, doesn't irritate and gets everything off fast and easy!
