Almost everyone has already heard of organic products arising in the market. One of them is the currently famous Virgin Coconut Oil which is already available in most stores nationwide. If one is to conduct a little research on the health benefits of the product, he is sure to find a lot on the internet. From head to toe and the outside physical body to the insides, it is indeed proven to be so useful you’ll end up asking yourself why not buy one.

Surprisingly, we can still maximize the use of VCO by including it in our everyday beauty and health routine! Here are ways you can incorporate the product in your daily self-care regimens.

VCO for your Mouth

You can use it for your oral hygiene. It is said that oil pulling (an ancient technique of swishing oil in your mouth for minutes) is very effective in removing bacteria and toxins in your mouth. Please note that you don’t need to brush your teeth before doing it.

1. Put a tablespoon of VCO in your mouth.
2. Swish the oil in your mouth for 10-20 minutes. Do not swallow it (you will ingest the toxins in your mouth).
3. Spit the oil in a trash bin. Instead of spitting the oil on your sink, find a trash bin so you can avoid clogging your sink with oil.
4. Brush and rinse your teeth afterwards to make sure that all toxins drawn out of the mouth are removed.

VCO for your Face

· As Makeup Remover (for the ladies) – Upon arriving home after a long day, VCO is a great alternative to use when removing makeup. In case you ran out of your regular makeup remover, try substituting it with VCO. It is pure and organic oil so it helps weaken makeup products applied on your face specially the waterproof lipsticks and mascaras which are so hard to remove. Just apply a little amount of VCO to a piece of cotton and use it to areas of your face with makeup. Once the makeup is removed, you can proceed washing your face with your preferred cleanser.

· As Facial Moisturizer – After washing your face, you can again use VCO as moisturizer. If you have very dry skin, you may apply a little amount of the oil to your face and massage it for some time to make sure all areas will absorb. Then you can proceed going to bed and leave it overnight.

VCO for your Body

For dry and irritated parts of your skin, VCO is also a very effective aid. One of the most common dilemmas we have regarding skin dryness is having cracked and flaking skin in our heels and soles. This is because these areas on our feet have fewer oil glands than other areas elsewhere in our body. That’s why we need to moisturize. And VCO is an excellent remedy for this. Below are simple guidelines to try.

1. Apply a generous amount of VCO and massage it especially on the areas that you think are so dry.
2. Wear a pair of socks. A thicker pair of socks is preferred.
3. Leave it overnight and repeat the routine every night for faster results.

In addition, if you are experiencing sunburns especially during summer, you may apply VCO to affected areas. Since VCO is anti-itch, anti-inflammation and is a natural moisturizer, it can help relieve symptoms of sunburn such as dryness and itching. It is also applicable to other parts of your skin (usually around the arms and legs) that are not sunburnt but may be regularly dry.

VCO for your Hair

To top it all off, VCO is also very effective to use for your Hair. If you have dry and damaged hair, you may want to consider using it. For a regular hair routine, you may mix it with your regular shampoo. A 50/50 mixture is suggested when trying this.

However, if you have enough time to soak your hair and reward yourself with a quick beauty treatment, take the opportunity to do so. You may do this routine once or twice a week before going to sleep depending on the damages and dryness of your hair. Here are some tips to consider.

1. Apply VCO onto your hair to make it damp. It is preferred that your hair is not straight-out-of-the-shower wet when doing this as you will rinse it again the next morning.
2. Massage the oil onto your scalp thoroughly. Concentrate on the tips that are usually greatly dry and damaged.
3. You may also use other natural oils together with VCO especially for your scalp. Most common suggestions are jojoba oil, argan oil and castor oil.
4. Cover your hair with a shower cap. You may then proceed going to sleep and rinse the next morning.
