Warm Up Your Winter With Organic Coconut Oil

11/19/2014

Coconut Palm
The weather outside may be frightful, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get a little taste of the tropics at home or in the spa! Coconut oil offers many amazing benefits to the hair, skin, and whole entire body, making it a wonderful winter health ally. BONUS: Coconut palms, which produce a new bunch of coconuts every month, are harvested year round, ensuring that your personal care routine will always be in season.
The coconut palm, or Cocos nucifera, is a tree that grows abundantly in most tropical and coastal regions and has a life span of up to 70 years. It has been traditionally valued in a multitude of ways within island communities, being used in everything from food to medicinal preparations. Indian Ayurvedic medicine has utilized it for thousands of years, often combining it with herbs to treat both internal and external afflictions. In the Philippines, coconut oil has even been traditionally applied to aid the healing of burns and broken bones! While it’s bone mending abilities may remain to be seen, coconut’s effect on skin health is a sure bet. High in medium-chain fatty acids like lauric, capric, and caprylic acid, this antioxidant-rich oil helps maintain skin moisture while supporting the skin texture and tone.  Highly cleansing and soothing, coconut oil also contains Vitamin E, making it useful when fighting irritation and scarring.

Our Organic Coconut Oil and Virgin de Coco Crème are carefully extracted without the use of heat, preserving all of their naturally nourishing and restorative constituents. These ingredients give you professional results that are good for your health, supportive to the environment, and useful for a variety of luxurious and therapeutic applications... 
Fresh Coconuts
Skincare: Coconut oil has chemical components similar to those in our own sebum, allowing it to protect us from irritation while still being very easy on our skin. Many have even found it to be effective against blemishes and congested skin conditions, and great for improving the look of discoloration. Coconut oil is gentle enough for babies, making it a great option for diaper rash. As an after bath body moisturizer, coconut oil smooths and repairs dry or damaged skin, and absorbs quickly without staining fabrics, making it wonderful for use during massage. 

Remove makeup: The smooth and emollient texture of coconut oil makes it a quick and easy way to remove even the most stubborn eye makeup. Not only will it give your skin a gentle cleanse, but you also get all of the healing and nourishing benefits in the same application. 

For a smooth shave: Its cleansing properties help heal nicks and cuts and protect your skin from razor burn. And it's so moisturizing and soothing, you can ditch your post-shave lotion and just shave and go! 

Deodorize: Not only does it quench and soften, but coconut oil freshens skin as well. Those who find traditional body powders too drying might want to take coconut oil for a spin. It's even effective for underarms! 

Don’t forget about your hair:  Not only can it be used to address itchy scalp conditions, coconut oil adds softness and shine to even the most damaged hair, making it a perfect deep conditioning treatment after sun damage or intense chemical processing at the salon. 

Learn more: Here at KMH, one of our favorite books about coconut oil is The Coconut Oil Miracle by Bruce Fife, C.N., N.D. and is a must for anyone in the salon or natural health industry.
