4 ways to use coconut oil outside of the kitchen 

Coconut oil has long been a trusted cooking staple in your pantry. But who says you have to use it only in your cooking?  

1. Soothes dry skin 

Coconut oil is rich in fatty acids and antioxidants, making it a fantastic natural moisturiser for your skin. The oil hydrates and nourishes the skin, leaving it soft and smooth, and its anti-inflammatory properties soothe dry or irritated skin.  

2. Hair conditioning treatment  

Make coconut oil your hair-care hero! Repair damaged hair by using the oil as a deep conditioning treatment. Before you wash your hair, massage the oil into your hair and scalp, leave it on for 30 minutes, and then wash it out with your regular shampoo. You will have a healthy and natural bounce in no time.  

3. Diaper soothing cream  

Need to get rid of your baby’s pesky diaper rash? Coconut oil creates a protective layer on the skin, helping to shield it from moisture and irritation. Its anti-inflammatory properties can reduce redness and discomfort, providing relief for your little one. Simply apply a thin layer of oil to the affected area. 

4. Perfect to pamper your pets with 

Humans are not the only ones benefiting from this oil. Apply a thin layer of coconut oil to your furry friend’s coat to keep it healthy and shiny. It’s a natural and effective way to keep your pets happy and healthy.
