Dr Organic Virgin Coconut Oil Monoi Moisture Melt Body Oil


If you’ve still not hear of Dr Organic’s range of products, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?!

Dr Organic utilise only the finest natural and organic raw materials wherever possible, contain natural ingredients, are Paraben and SLS free, suitable for vegetarians and are not tested on animals.

I’m in love the entire range, and its a  vast, vast range let me tell you!


There is literally something for everyone from shampoo’s to salt scrubs, eye creams to anti ageing serums, but today i want to introduce you to the Dr Organic Virgin Coconut Oil Monoi Moisture Melt Body Oil (£8.99).

This has quickly become my favourite Dr Organic product.



It might not look much to begin with, but appearances are often deceptive!

This exotic oil is a wonderful product for those of you who love an oil moisturisers.

Solid at room temperature
 
Like pure coconut oil, the product is solid at room temperate. 

 Its not until you warm it but placing it in a sink of warm water for a minute or too, that you see the transformation from a solid into a delicious, fine oil.
 
The smell is amazing.

Gently warmed under a running tap

Think fresh, creamy coconut with a hint of spa.

By now you’ll hopefully all know about the fab properties of coconut oil from my various posts (Here & Here), but this melt also includes Monoi which is a natural emollient that helps penetrate and rehydrate your skin too.

The solid product has begun to transform into an oil

Using this product feels experiencing a spa treatment. The smell is subtle yet gorgeous and the oil quickly sinks into your skin, leaving it soft and nourished rather than clogged and greasy.

Pure Coconut Oil


Before you say anything, i know that this doesn’t look quite as exciting, pretty or fabulous as some of the products I’ve reviewed before, but bare with me.

Allow me to introduce you to something called Pure Coconut Oil from Holland and Barrett.


 I mentioned this multi purpose item a few months back when it came to light that supermodel Miranda Kerr eats 4 tablespoon's of this oil every day to help maintain her glossy hair and luminous skin.

But, did you know this item can be used in other ways?

 
For example, it makes an incredible, 100% pure and natural moisturiser.

Granted it’s not much to look at and when stored in a cool place, the oil actually becomes fairly solid. It is white and pearly in colour, hard to touch and looks neither like it would make a decent moisturiser or a tasty supplement.

The oil in semi solid form

When warmed between the palms of your hand however, it is transformed in to a warm, oily liquid which is perfect for moisturing dry skin.

I love warming the oil up in my hands, massaging it into my skin and enjoying the delicate, sweet aroma of coconut that envelops you as it skins into your skin leaving it silky smooth.

See how it melts into a gorgeous oil

The oily texture quickly melts away leaving your skin supple and smooth without a hint of grease.

Im still not sold on the concept of ingesting it, but it has now become a much loved staple in my beauty regime.

Pure Coconut Oil is available from Holland and Barrett and costs £14.99 for a big tub.
