Hey Beauties tomorrow, June 21, 2013, is the first official
day of summer and that got me to thinking about my number one favorite summer
ingredient, coconut oil. The scent alone makes me think all things summer,
especially days at the beach! Although its been well documented that if
stranded on a desert island with only one beauty product it would my EVOO
(Extra Virgin Olive Oil). However, when summer, my favorite season arrives, I
like to switch things up a bit and incorporate coconut oil into my beauty
regimen. Here’s how.
SKIN: During summer I like to use Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
as my moisturizer from head to toe. I especially love the way its natural
fragrance incorporates with my body chemistry giving off a refreshingly sweet
aroma. Not only does this amazing oil have the ability to absorb deep into
skins surface. It also has the ability to naturally prevent burning from the
sun. So using it as a moisturizer before applying sunscreen will actually give
your skin extra protection against sun burn.
HAIR: Coconut oil has the ability to provide hair with
moisture and shine. Not to mention it’s the number one ingredient most
naturalistas and curlistas incorporate into their hair care regimen. I love to
use it on my hair during summer for the fragrance. Of course it provides my
hair with shine and moisture, however, I like to use a blend of EVCO (Extra
Virgin Coconut Oil) and grape seed or almond oil to moisturize my scalp and
ends.
How do you incorporate EVCO into your beauty regimen?
