Raise your hand if you're an avid fan of coconut oil! Okay, good. Glad to hear that you are. After all, this miraculous oil can be used for virtually anything. If we're being honest, it's sort of like a household superhero. Cost-effective, long-lasting, and smells amazing. Can it get better? Verdict is a hard no. 

First things first, let's talk benefits. Coconut Oil is the ruler of the kitchen, bathroom, skin, etc. It is a lightweight, natural emollient that makes it super versatile, and able to easily blend with other ingredients. The slightly sweet taste makes it a great alternative to sugar in baking, and the ability to withstand heat up to 350 degrees F makes it a solid choice for stovetop cooking. 

While the below list of life hacks can be much longer we don't want to bore you, so we've put a limit on how many we give. Let us know in comments if you want to see more! 

For all of these recipes, feel free to grab our Extra Virgin Coconut Oil! ($9)

Toothpaste 

Keep your teeth clean as can be with a super simple coconut-oil based toothpaste! 

In a small cup, mix together 1 tablespoon of Coconut Oil, 3 drops of Oil of Peppermint Ingestible 100% Pure and 1 tsp Baking Soda. 

Apply to your toothbrush and scrub away!

Perfume

Tired of smelling like everyone else? Make your own perfume! It's so simple. Here's how:

Mix together 4 mL of Coconut Oil (melted), with your favorite essential oils (we love Amber Oil and Vanilla Essential Oil together, sultry yet sweet). 

Place in a metal tin, and allow to cool. 

There you go! Solid perfume perfect for on-the-go. 

Makeup Remover

Sleeping with makeup on is never a good idea. Let Coconut Oil lend a hand. All you have to do is apply to a cotton pad and gently rub to remove the beauty gear! 

Hair Treatment 

Lastly, coconut oil makes for a hydrating hair experience. Applying 1 tablespoon of heated Coconut Oil to the hair before shampooing helps to condition the root.
