Coconut oil is a real all-rounder, whether it is used as a food, beauty product or home remedy. The smell and taste of coconut oil are very subtle and unobtrusive, so you can use it in many ways.
 
Coconut oil has become a secret weapon in other areas as well. It can be used as a natural hair treatment, as a skin care for dry skin, to soothe the skin after waxing or shaving, for rough lips or even for the itchy, dry scalp. Coconut oil can even provide some moisture to problem skin with neurodermatitis or psoriasis. Some swear by coconut oil for the care of the beard, others use it for oil pulling to care for teeth and gums
 
Uncured and unrefined (virgin) coconut oil has a melting point of around 24–26 °C and is therefore usually solidified in a temperate climate, and therefore a fat. In tropical areas and especially in summer, it usually has a liquid consistency, an oil.
