Coconut oil is a common edible oil, but what you might not know is that it can also have many other unexpected uses. Many celebrities introduce it into their body care routines too! Check out the 4 ways you can use coconut oil and make sure to keep this article bookmarked!

1. Coconut Oil Scrub

Using a scrub made of coconut oil to exfoliate your skin will leave it smooth and moisturized. Simply mix half a cup of coconut oil melted at low temperatures with a cup of brown sugar to get a low-cost, natural scrub that is not one bit harmful to the skin. You can say goodbye to specialty scrubs and have a organic, DIY one at home!

2. Hair Mask

If you want a head of beautiful, straight hair, a hair mask is crucial to your haircare routine. That's right, masks are not just for your face! Mix 3 - 5 tablespoons of coconut oil with 20 drops of rosemary oil and apply it evenly on your hair. Keep your hair in a shower cap for 30 - 60 minutes before washing it off. Soon after, the volume and smoothness of your hair will be the envy of all!

3. Eye Makeup Remover

Besides replacing hair masks, coconut oil can be used to replace makeup removers, especially eye makeups. Just dab some cotton pads with suitable amounts of coconut oil and tenderly remove your eye makeup. Remember that the skin is much softer around the eyes, so be sure to be gentle. Excessive or hard rubbing around the eyes will increase the generation of wrinkles.

4. Massage Oil

We've mentioned hair and the eyes, but coconut oil can actually be used from head to toe as a massage oil! Not only is it affordable, it moisturizes the skins fairly well, perfect for those with drier skin. Perhaps, with this tip, you will be getting more massages from your other half?

In addition to being edible, coconut oil can be applied externally. With its friendly prices and universal uses, it's definitely a bang for the buck! Head to your nearest supermarket and get yourself a bottle of coconut oil now!
