I LOVE Coconut Oil

I’ve discovered the best kept secret – buy coconut oil and use for EVERYTHING (almost)

I picked up this jar from Whole Foods for about $7 and have used it in place of a variety of items:

-       Use as a deep hair conditioner 1-2 times per week

-       Soften cuticles

-       Rub on knees and elbows

-       Mix with a little brown sugar for an amazing body scrub

-       Swish in mouth to help reduce gum soreness from flossing (this made me want to die the first few times; it get’s easier I promise)

I’ve also seen a few people share an article about ‘Oil Pulling’ on FaceBook.  I verified the validity of Oil Pulling through Snopes, and determined it most likely would not cure my hangover, detoxify my body, or rid my skin of any trace of blemish.   

Nonetheless, coconut oil may not cure any medical ailments, it is still an all-in-one beauty product I swear by.
