I use to use coconut oil all the time for cooking, but once the last jar I bought ran out I completely forgot about it. Last week I rediscovered it again while working on set for the television show The Revolution. After finishing Dr. Jen’s makeup she grab a jar of coconut oil and spread the oil on her legs for moisture. Immediately after the taping of the show I walked into Wholefoods Market to purchase a jar of coconut oil and have been using it for about 4 days now and have completely gone coo coo for it all over again.

My skin has never felt softer. There are also numerous other benefits coconut oil has on the skin like it delays wrinkles, and sagging of skin which normally become prominent with age. Coconut oil also helps in treating various skin problems including psoriasis, dermatitis, eczema and other skin infections. Unless you are allergic to coconut oil in someway then I would stay away, but if you aren’t by all means run out immediately and buy yourself a jar. Try it out and see if you like it. If you find you don’t like it for your skin you can also use it for your hair or for cooking click here for some free coconut oil recipes.
