Benefits of Coconut Oil for the skin



Coconut oil is an edible oil extracted from the kernel or meat of matured coconuts. It contains vitamin E and K and iron. It also contains the same level of saturated fat like palm oil but both are safer than animal fat because they are composed of medium-chain triglycerides which reduces health risk when taken internally. Although I prefer groundnut oil for cooking. 


▫️Coconut oil provides deep moisture for the skin although it has an oily consistency at first, it is fantastic at absorbing quickly into the skin. 
▫️Coconut oil raises the body's metabolism and acts as an antiviral, antifungal and antibacterial agent.
▫It helps strengthen underlying tissues and helps remove dead cells on the skin's surface.
▫It is also a perfect make-up remover.
▫When taken internally it can improve insulin levels.
▫A tablespoon melted into a cup of warm tea can help soothe a sore throat.
▫It helps prevent pregnancy stretch marks and diaper rash.
▫It helps the skin heal faster after injury or infection.
▫When used on cuticles, it improves nail growth and it has a heavenly tropical smell.

Since coconut oil can be made at home by you, you don't need a seer to tell you it is 100% natural. Now, if you don't have the strength/time to make yours, you can order coconut oil by sending us a message.

Benefits of Palm Kernel Oil

Palm kernel oil has been in my home for as long as I can remember. As a little girl, my paternal grandmother would send it to us to use as a body cream. She sent the one that had stick-like herbs in them and I was cool with them until I started watching Nollywood, and I wanted nothing to do with a babalawo's cream . Although   now I know it's a very great oil and I'm going to be sharing some of its wonders.  

Benefits of Honey

Honey is a sweet, thick liquid made by honeybees. What makes the smell, colour, and taste of honey different depend on the types of flowers visited.
