The preferred oil for use in the cosmetics and soap-making industry, extra virgin coconut oil (VCO) is solid at room temperature, and liquefies when warmed up. This fine, pure grade of coconut oil can also be used widely in cooking, skincare and haircare.
Extra virgin coconut oil possesses high antioxidant properties and is rich in lauric acid, which is also present in breast milk. It’s because of all this that coconut oil is such an enduringly popular healthcare product, helping people to increase their immunity against viruses, bacteria and pathogens.
Once opened, we recommend that you store your coconut oil in the fridge.

Recently purchased this virgin coconut oil and am surprised how good the taste and quality is. I’ve bought quite a few different brands and this is by far the most flavoursome coconut oil I’ve tried.
I won’t be going back to my old brand (that was out of stock) after trying this unrefined coconut oil.
