Een natuurlijk wondermiddel: Kokosolie

A natural wonder remedy: Coconut oil

Let me tell you more about a great beauty ingredient that is natural and versatile and also very effective! You may have it in your kitchen, because it is actually a very simple ingredient. It's: coconut oil!

A simple, but fantastic ingredient that has gained a lot of popularity in the beauty world in recent years! I am also a big fan and am happy to use it in some SELF products such as the All Day Dreamer day cream or the Fine Delicate Body Butter!

WHY IS COCONUT OIL SUCH A MIRACLE?

Coconut oil contains no less than 90% of saturated fats that are very good for your skin, that's why I'm such a fan! It is a natural product that you can use in many different ways. You may not think about it, but you undoubtedly have a beauty product with coconut oil in your bathroom.

SELF LOVES KOKOSNOOTOLIE

At SELF we use coconut in a high percentage in all our products because it is known as a fantastic moisturizer for your skin. It is also very effective in combating eczema and psoriasis because it works deep into the skin. The fatty acids have a strong effect on skin elasticity (anti-wrinkle effect), the antioxidants present protect the skin against aging and lauric acid works well for skin problems thanks to its antibacterial effect. The super moisturizing & nourishing effect of coconut oil ensures silky soft skin!

HOW CAN YOU STILL USE COCONUT OIL? A FEW TIPS!

Any other ways to use coconut oil? Would you like to get started with coconut oil yourself?

  • You can whip the oil wonderfully airy like whipped cream, you can use this as a treatment and ultimate pampering for your drier summer hair that is extra stressed by the sun, sea and swimming pool water!
  • You can also use coconut oil unprocessed on the ends of your locks. A little bit is enough to make your hair supple and shiny. Coconut oil penetrates all the way to the core of your hair and makes your hair healthy again!
  • You can also use coconut oil to remove your makeup, which is why it is also included in our Boost of Freshness ! A natural and moisturizing makeup remover that is gentle on your skin and eyelashes, but still removes your makeup very well! It even works for mascara and lipstick!
  • And of course you can also use coconut oil in your diet! Make sure you buy good organic oil! Coconut oil helps strengthen your immune system, strengthen bones, maintain blood levels... it has a disinfectant effect on the inside of your body, fights infections and ensures that you are also in top shape on the inside!
