Coconut Oil really does it all. It’s an antioxidant, antiseptic, anti-fungal, and antimicrobial oil. High in fatty-acids, this oil absorbs into your skin easily and is well known for its extreme moisturizing benefits. We use only organic, virgin coconut oil for our skin products.

Coconut oil contains high amounts of vitamin E, antioxidants, proteins and triglycerides as well as lauric acid which is both anti-microbial and anti-bacterial. The antioxidants in coconut oil combat the affects of aging by hindering the free radicals that contribute to the hardening of the connective tissues in the skin. The small molecular structure of coconut oil allows it to penetrate the skin easily while the proteins and vitamin E soothe and rejuvenate the skin.

Several other antioxidants contribute to olive oil benefits for skin. Polyhenols and phytosterols neutralize the free radicals that cause so much skin damage in the human population. One of these antioxidants, Hydroxytyrosol, is a rather rare compound that happens to be plentiful in olive oil. It is one of the key compounds that helps prevent free radical damage. It penetrates deeply into the skin without clogging pores—something a lot of your commercial skin moisturizers due as an unfortunate side effect of their action. Olive oil is different. It moistens skin so thoroughly that it is often used as a home remedy for any type of skin condition such as eczema or psoriasis that creates patches of dry skin. Many women use it for stretch mark therapy after giving birth to a child, and many others use it to treat blemishes that often appear on the skin.

The vitamin C antioxidants stimulate collagen production. It also helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The oil can penetrate due to the vitamin A, which has small enough molecules to go deeper into the skin. Vitamin A improves the skin’s moisture levels and reduces wrinkles and fine lines.

It improves the texture of your skin and calms redness and inflammation. It’s also great for healing scars. Can be used on all skin types.

Another wonderful benefit of vitamin E oil is that it can be used to treat scars, acne, and wrinkles because it speeds up cell regeneration. This creates an anti-aging effect, which makes the skin look younger.

Vitamin E oil benefits the skin by helping it retain its natural moisture content. Vitamin E oil makes dull-looking, dry skin look healthier and fresher.
