Which step of my skincare routine does coconut oil fit into?
This oil can be used in multiple ways depending on your need. As an after bath moisturization use it on cleansed wet skin to seal in moisture and add shine. As a massage oil, mix it with a few drops of your choice of essential oil and massage gently. Leave on for at least 30 minutes followed by a warm bath. For scalp, massage a few drops on the oil with your fingertips and leave on for 2 hours before a hair wash.
Why is cold-pressed important?
In the cold-pressed method oil is obtained from the first press of the ingredient, without any external application of heat. Such oils are richer in nutrients and antioxidants compared to hot pressed oils which lose their nutritional value due to exposure to heat.
