Extra Virgin Coconut Oil

BENEFITS

Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is obtained from the fresh meat of mature coconut kernels. It is produced by cold-pressing the liquid from the coconut meat. It is 100% natural, unbleached and cold-pressed. Coconut oil is the most abundant source of lauric acid, a fatty acid known for its antimicrobial, moisturizing, and hormone-balancing properties. Aside from its anti-ageing and skin-healing abilities, it also stimulates the production of collagen, and its vitamin E content protects the skin from sun damage.
