How to use coconut oil in your beauty routine!

coconut oil

Hello, glamorizes!
Easy to find, versatile and without major restrictions, the ingredient is the darling of my beauty rituals. It can be used to cleanse, hydrate and nourish the skin, as any other moisturizing  lotion
The coconut oil is rich in vitamin E, it has high antioxidant power which slows the premature aging of the skin of various body parts.
The darling of natural beauty adepts, coconut oil is one of the most versatile items of the natural beauty routine. Famous known by healthy habits, such as the models Miranda Kerr, Candice Swanepoel, Irina Shayk and the actress Gwyneth Paltrow, have confessed that they are adepts of coconut oil. No complications, it can be used from the skin to the hair. When applied on the face or body, coconut oil works as a 100% natural moisturizing that recovers the natural skin oiliness. 
I really like the natural cosmetology and also I love the homemade alternatives that I can do with coconut oil, here are some ways to take this oil on a daily basis.

As face and body moisturizer
Coconut oil has more moisturizing results than many of the cosmetics products we found out there. It is absorbed very quickly, and reaches even the deepest layers of the skin, apply only in the eyes of the region since the oil is light enough and this is the most delicate area of the face.
If you have dry skin, coconut oil can be a great ally. It is a great emollient thus promotes natural moisturizing face, leaving the softer to the touch.
In the body, add equal parts oil to your moisturizer to enhance the treatment. If you want, you can even add essential oils such as lavender or vanilla to give some smell to the skin.

Night cream

Apply coconut oil at night for maximum moisturizing benefits for the skin. The antioxidants are great allies to smooth the expression lines and wrinkles while you sleep.

Makeup remover
It does not harm the skin and removes all types of makeup, even waterproof.
Apply the oil on a cotton and slide on the skin. Then remove the excess with another cotton with warm water.

Coconut oil as post shaving cream
