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.

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.

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.
