Hey there! 🥥
So, let's talk about coconut oil, a multitasking hero of the skincare world! You won't believe the awesomeness (yes I really said that, AWESOMENESS 😂) this stuff can do for your skin. It's packed with all these fantastic fatty acids, like lauric acid, myristic acid, and a whole bunch of others that sound fancy but basically mean it's packed and filled with goodness. You don’t need to tell me twice to use this stuff, and lucky me my skin can tolerate it well, so count me all in! 💯
I wanna hone in on one thing that coconut oil does during our gossip sesh today, because it’s so entirely cool! 🤩 It doesn't just sit pretty on your skin. Nope, it's a warrior against the bad guys – those pesky bacteria and fungi that love to wreak havoc on our skin. 🦠
Thanks to its antimicrobial properties, it's like a shield protecting your skin from all sorts of nasties. Acne, cellulitis, folliculitis – you name it, coconut oil's got your back. And get this – studies show that lauric acid, which makes up nearly half of coconut oil's fatty acids, is insanely good at fighting off bacteria. It's like nature's own antibacterial fighting rockstar! 👩🎤
But wait, there's more! Ever heard of capric acid? It's another gem found in coconut oil, although it plays second fiddle to lauric acid. But don't let that fool you – capric acid packs a punch too. It's like the sidekick that's just as badass. 🦸♀️ Test-tube studies have shown that it's not just bacteria that should watch out – fungi, you're on the hit list too! So moisturizing, antibacterial AND antifungal?? Like whut. 🤯 why didn’t I know this sooner?! We have a lot of coconuts here in the Philippines! We export it for crying out loud.
But you know, instead of climbing a tree getting a coconut and making the oil for myself (which I can’t do, because imagine me…climbing a tree 😂🌴 spells all kinds of trouble to me) or buying a single ingredient VCO in the grocery for my skin. I’d rather head over to oleiaoil.com because SURPRISE this is one of the ingredients of ANY Oleia Oil variant. So, pack these benefits with the rest of Oleia’s components and we get absolute ✨MAGIC✨. Show me your bottle and I’ll show you mine? ‘Til next time! 💋
