Healthy Skin Care, Beautiful YOU~Skinny & Co. Coconut Oil Review

By now you probably have heard about the amazing benefits of coconut oil. It has so many purposes that range from skincare all the way to dental hygiene. This stuff is so versatile but more importantly, it is a more natural alternative to other products that you might be using! That is why I was so excited to review a sample pack of coconut oil from Skinny & Co.!

“Our coconuts are WILD HARVESTED from the jungles of Vietnam. The coconuts are hand-picked and transported directly to our plant; a controlled environment ensuring quality. Once cracked open, the coconut meat is put into the closed-loop, dehumidifying Nutralock System™. This extracts the moisture without heat, leaving all of the raw nutrients of the coconut intact.

Raw is better. The majority of coconut oils on the market claim to be “cold pressed,” but are actually heated prior to the pressing process.

This extracts more oil from each individual coconut, yet raises the temperature over 120˚ F and destroys nutritional value. We believe our Nutralock System™ is superior to any other pressing method. Each jar takes about three times longer than other processes and uses 12 coconuts. This is why you can see, smell and feel the difference between our oil and virtually any other oil on the market.

At Skinny Coconut Oil, we guarantee you 100% pure, wild-harvested, raw coconut oil. Try and jar and taste the difference!”

I have been using coconut oil for quite a long time now and really love it’s versatility. It first started when my newborn son had a horrible diaper rash and the traditional creams were not working. I decided to give coconut oil a try and honestly never used another diaper rash cream again. His rash was gone within a few days, and I was amazed! Now it’s always in my bathroom and my kitchen, and my kids request it for ‘owies’, chapped lips, rashes, and more. I was really interested in Skinny & Co. coconut oil not only because they promise 100% pure, raw oil (yes….you can eat this stuff because it is non-toxic), but also because they formulate it with other natural ingredients depending on the projected use. Some of my favorites include:

FACIAL OIL (Ingredients include: 100% Raw Coconut Oil, Lavender, Roman Chamomile, Holy Basil)

The Skinny & Co. Facial Oil is one of our top sellers for an obvious reason: it is a three in one product! This amazing jar contains some of the most calming essential oils in the world. This facial oil is best used to remove stubborn makeup with ease, then wipe off with a warm cloth. A little goes a long way with all coconut oil products and it has a long shelf life. It will not irritate eyes or skin because just like all Skinny & Co. products, it is not made with any chemicals or preservatives. A great bonus tip is to add this to the tops of the cheekbones or decollate as a light highlight once makeup is applied.

WHIPPED BODY BUTTER (Ingredients: 100% Raw Coconut Oil, Organic Almond Oil: May promote collagen renewal, Vitamin E: Protects against free radical damage, Blend of Essential Oils)

We have taken our Skinny & Co. Coconut Oil and whipped it to perfection to make our Body Butter. Our nourishing product can be applied generously to hydrate and protect skin. This is best used right after a shower when the skin is slightly damp which allows for maximum absorption. If you have chemical or color-treated hair, it can easily get dried out and brittle. We suggest twenty minutes before a shower, comb through a generous amount of the body butter. While it sits, it will penetrate the hair strands and give it extra hydration before shampooing and conditioning as normal.

SUGAR SCRUB (Ingredients: 100% Raw Coconut Oil: Coconut Sugar: Natural source of glycol acid, low glycemic

Vanilla Bean: Gentle aroma, contains trace minerals)

Our Skinny & Co. Sugar Scrub is the purest sugar scrub on the planet, because it is made with our natural Coconut Oil. This pH balanced scrub is effective yet gentle and actually soothes and moisturizes the skin. It is gluten free and free of BPA. The whipped texture makes it easy to spread on the body and makes it perfect to get glowing, healthy skin. Vanilla bean is added to help soothe skin and compliment the soft, toasted scent of the sugar.

My favorite organic coconut oil from Skinny & Co. is the facial oil. You may think it is not a good idea to moisturize with straight oil but let me tell you something: my skin has been so happy with me since I switched to just using my oil. I have extremely sensitive skin that breaks out with almost every new product (even ones that are geared toward preventing acne) but since I changed my routine, I have less pimples and super moisturized skin! Coconut oil is a great natural product for skin or hair care. Now I received several small sample sizes of each product, but even my 2 oz. jars are going to last me a long, long time! As you can see…Skinny & Co. is so much more than just coconut oil.
