STEPS FOR USING COCONUT OIL
- Liquefy 1 tablespoon of coconut oil by rubbing it gently between your hands. The liquefied oil will have a silky, light texture.
- Smooth onto your face and neck. You can also use coconut oil on your chest and on other dry areas of your body.
- Gently remove any thick residue with a soft tissue. Don’t use cotton balls, as they will stick to the oil on your face.
- Leave a light layer of coconut oil on your skin overnight.
- Avoid getting coconut oil into your eyes, as it may make your vision blurry temporarily.
- If you’re pinched for time, coconut oil can also do double duty as a makeup remover prior to using it as a night cream. Simply follow these same steps twice. Use once to gently remove makeup and once to leave a light coating on your skin
