Coconut Oil
Posted by Introuble (Islamabad) on 03/21/2018
I have been using ordinary coconut oil for a year now, did see my skin glowing and it also helped me with my acne problem. But last week I switched to organic cold pressed oil, somehow there is outbreak of acne. What can be a reason for that?

I used coconut oil also in the evening and it also caused my skin to flush I didn't go out in the sun. I thought maybe it was just me also. Honey and bannana mashed and mixed together are also good for the skin. equal amounts of both.

I have been using organic virgin coconut oil on my face and body for 2 weeks now. It has improved the texture of my skin however I seem to always looked flushed on my face and neck, almost looks like I am sunburnt. I have very fair skin and have been using only a medium coverage amount on my face and neck so that it absorbs almost completly. Has anyone else experienced this and does it calm down? Is it removing the dead skin layers as it seems to look like the effects of a light chemical peel?
Thank you
