Virgin coconut oil has amazing nutritional properties. Known for its excellent moisturizing benefits on the skin, this oil also will act as a protective layer to retain moisture. Virgin coconut oil contains ‘lauric acid’, a fatty acid known to be a powerful germ killer. The only other known foods that contain significant amounts of lauric acid is breast milk, goat milk and cow milk.
Coconut oil will produce a thick bubbly lather in cold process soap making. It is the ‘go to’ oil for many soap makers. Excellent for use in making bath and body products such as lotion, body butter, bath bombs and more.
Our extra virgin coconut oil will melt at 76 degrees. It is widely used as is by sliding a small amount over the skin, since it melts on contact.
