The humble coconut comes from what Pacific Islanders call "The Tree of Life." The light, highly absorbant oil of the coconut has some among its properties: Antioxidant, anti-fungal, anti-viral, and anti-bacterial. Coconut Oil also promotes a youthful appearance by moisturizing and softening the skin and hair while imparting a healthy glow.
Natural coconut oil has a melting point of 76 degrees Fahrenheit, which means below that temperature, where most of us prefer to live, its solid. Its often underrated due to its relatively low cost, but don’t be fooled by its price; this stuff is amazing on your skin. By comparison, Kukui Nut Oil costs over $150 per gallon.
We use this oil because of its superior healing and moisturizing properties and we put up with the inconvenience of its melting point. Placing it in a sink of warm water for a few minutes brings it back to liquid (NEVER use a microwave).
On behalf of Mother Nature we apologize for this inconvenience
