Hey all sorry I have been MIA my mom was out of town so I got house sitting duty. It was a long 10 days of taking care of the house and dogs but she's back now so I am able to blog again.
My favorite coconut oil is from Trader Joe's not only is it virgin and organic coconut oil but it is also a great price. At $5.99 for a 16 oz jar it is a steal and if you have ever used coconut oil this jar should last you for a really long time. Whole foods also has a great selection if you do not have a Trader Joe's near you.
One of my favorite uses for coconut oil is as moisturizer for my face and skin. It hydrates my skin just enough and I love the natural smell of coconut. Be careful not to use too much because it can make you feel greasy.
Another great beauty secret that I learned from a friend is that coconut oil can be great for using in dried up mascara. When your mascara starts to wear out and feel dry just put a tiny amount of coconut oil and it will revive your mascara. I recently used it on my YSL Mascara and it worked great! It is also a great lash serum to make your lashes grow and to make them healthier.
Coconut oil is also a great and healthy replacement for vegetable or canola oil and adds a great flavor as well. I especially love making omelettes using coconut oil or use it to saute veggies. Some people use it for baking but I have yet to try that.
If you have any different uses for coconut oil let me know by writing it below in the comments.
Stay sassy and classy
