Coconut is one of nature's most miraculous fruits, and has an
abundance of benefits and uses. For centuries, the coconut has been one
of the main staples of the people of Fiji, the Pacific Islands, and
throughout the Tropics. Whether absorbed or digested
Cold Pressed Coconut
Oil, the unrefined fat removed from the coconut, is the key byproduct
that Organic Fiji uses to unlock the coconut's full potential.
Now
it is no surprise that Coconut Oil is great for the skin. Fijians and
Pacific Islanders have always had beautiful, smooth, healthy, and age
defying skin even while being exposed to the relentless sun and the
harsh salty sea air. Their secret is in their native island product,
Coconut Oil! It has been used as a natural skincare treatment for
centuries. Coconut oil is nature's most abundant source of Medium-Chain
Triglycerides. When applied to your skin, your natural good bacteria
convert these Medium-Chain Triglycerides into Antimicrobial Fatty Acids.
Antimicrobial Fatty Acids prevent viral, fungal, and bacterial
infections, including yeast! Antimicrobial Fatty Acids act like nature's
natural bodyguards for your skin. This is key! These protective
qualities make Coconut oil an excellent fat to use in body soaps, and is
why Cold Pressed Coconut Oil is the principal ingredient in Organic
Fiji's Coconut Oil Soap Cleanser for Face and Body! A perfect choice for sensitive,
normal and dry skin!
Why is Coconut oil such a superior moisturizer?
It
all comes down to the small molecular structure of coconut oil. Its
undersized structure promotes easy absorption through the skins pores
and follicles. Coconut Oil's deep moisturizing properties rapidly
hydrate, condition, and shield the skin from moisture loss. Most leading
skincare products come in the form of over processed low-grade fats, which are no where near as beneficial for you. This is why our Cold Pressed Coconut Oil is such a
superior moisturizer, and is a great treatment to relieve dry, rough,
and wrinkled skin. It is also an optimal natural treatment in treating
of skin conditions like Eczema and Psoriasis! Organic Fijis Coconut Oil Lotions for Face and Body is made only with Certified Organic Virgin
Coconut Oil, and is formulated to promote healthier hydrated skin! But
better moisturizing is not the only reason to use Coconut Oil as your
primary skincare treatment!
Why does Coconut Oil make you look and feel younger?
Not
only is Coconut oil vitamin enriched in vitamins A, B, C, and E, and
nourishes your skin, coconut oil is a natural anti-oxidant that helps
the skin repair itself. Coconut Oils protective anti-oxidant qualities
protect the skin from free radicals and other environmental aging
factors. Free radicals break down the connective tissues in your skin
causing your skin to harden and lose its natural elasticity and
strength. All the signs we see in aged skin! Conventional skin products
are not made with anti-oxidant loaded fats like coconut oil. Instead,
they often use highly refined vegetable oils, which may have had all
their good anti-oxidants removed from over processing. These highly
refined vegetable oils are actually prone to free-radical generation! If
you apply a product that uses highly refined vegetable oil instead of
anti-oxidant loaded oil like Cold Pressed Coconut Oil, you may actually
be causing you skin to age faster! This is why you should always be
careful about what skincare products, lotions and lip balms you use.
Organic Fiji takes full advantage of the anti-aging abilities of Coconut
oil by using only Certified Organic Virgin Coconut Oil formulated in
all Organic Fiji Products including Organic Fijis Sugar Polish, which
exfoliates and enriches your skin, and Organic Fiji Coconut Oil Lip Balms.
So remember when looking to care for your skin, look for Coconut Oil, and look for Organic Fiji!
