A tub of coconut oil @ £5.99 a pot is the latest offering. We are assured it's all we need.
Gwyneth Paltrow and Sadie Frost apparently wash out their mouths with it, and supermodel Gisele Bundchen says she uses it on her skin after being in the sun. Angelina Jolie is said to eat it for breakfast and fellow actress Blake Lively rubs it into the ends of her hair.
I cook with coconut oil, have done for a couple of years - not tried it in any other way though. It's supposed to make a really good moisturiser and hair conditioner - maybe one day!! I think there are two sorts - unrefined, which is very coconutty and pricey, and refined, which is fairly tasteless and a much better price. Unrefined is probably what the celebs use but I got 4x 500ml tubs of the cheaper stuff from Amazon for around a tenner which is a really good price.
Snarly had a white area on her big toenail - fungal infection. For years and nothing got rid of it. After a week of coconut oil 'dabbings' - gone, never to return. HandOnHeart
Egad! If it can cure fungal toenail infections just imagine what it could do for your face.
Yup, Carun uses extracts of cannabis sativa in its range which has anti-inflammatory properties apparently.
Cannabis sativa, however, contains very little of the psychoactive chemical with the brand's products containing around 0.3 per cent, whereas marijuana typically contains 20-30 per cent.
