Description
Refined Coconut Oil is refined, bleached, deodorised and winterised to give a highly stable oil with no coconut scent. It's a white solid below about 24°C and melts to a clear, colourless liquid as it warms, and it's naturally rich in lauric acid and other medium-chain fatty acids.
With its neutral scent, it's a handy everyday oil for massage, body moisturising and hair care, and it blends easily with essential oils without competing with their aroma. It's best kept for body and hair, as its high comedogenic rating means it may not suit oily or blemish-prone facial skin.
- No coconut scent, lets essential oils shine
- Melts on contact for smooth massage
- Leaves skin feeling soft and moisturised
- Conditioning for dry hair
Pairs well with: Jojoba, sweet almond, grapeseed, lavender and tea tree
