10 Ways to Use Coconut Oil to Feel Prettier (2 of 6)
Use It As Moisturizer
Coconut oil is also a great moisturizer for the skin. This works best when the oil is in its solid form, so be sure not to overheat it. Take a scoop of coconut oil and rub it between your hands, before rubbing it into your skin. Get an added bonus by using this method right after you get out of the shower, and your skin is still damp. This will really seal in extra moisture.
Treat Eczema
What many may not know is that coconut oil can actually treat skin conditions. This is the case with eczema, and can also help treat the itchiness that is caused by eczema also. Combine liquid coconut oil with ground oats, and let it harden before using it on eczema patches.
