Coconut oil is an extremely dense, rich and nourishing oil with multiple applications on different parts of our body. The oil contains anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and moisturing properties which help in cleansing the skin. Rich in lauric acid, it penetrates inside the hair lining due to its low molecular weight, making it an excellent choice for hydrating the hair. It can help protect and retain important proteins for hair.
The presence of lauric acid also solves in concealing acne, stretch marks over a period of time, while also taking care of dry skin issues such as cracking of skin and fine lines. Overall, it further extends its prowess as a relaxing agent for the body and relieves tension during topical massages.
