I'M IN LOVE WITH THE COCO

WE LOVE COCONUT OIL.

This glorious package was sent to us from Carrington Farms! They have such great products and the best coconut oil out there.

In case you aren't obsessed with this stuff already, we think it's a gal's best secret weapon to looking and feeling great!

We use coconut oil everyday for lots of different reasons and benefits - hair masks, face wash (especially if your skin is dry or irritated), shaving, teeth whitening, skin moisturizer, and cooking.  Coconut oil contains vitamin E, fiber and fatty acids that are great for overall nutritional health.

(this one has lasted several months already & I use it daily!)

The Carrington Farms 'health benefits' tab has tons of facts and information about the advantages of using coconut oil.  Here are a few of our faves from the page:

1. To help you feel full – mix 2 teaspoons of coconut oil with water and drink 20 -30 minutes before a meal. 
2. (You will eat less at the meal because you will already feel full!)
3. Eat a spoonful for an energy boost
4. Super hair conditioner
5. Replace butter, shortening and other fats
6. Use instead of shaving cream
7. Makeup remover
8. Use to treat athlete’s foot or other fungal infections
9. Add to smoothies for extra nutrition
10. Mix in your hot coffee or tea
11. Mix with oil of oregano and use at the first sign of a cold sore
12. Mix with sugar for a body scrub
13. Rub onto lips as a natural chap stick
14. Rub into the inside of your nose to help alleviate allergy symptoms
15. Mix with chia for a double energy booster!
16. Use it to on mosquito bites, poison ivy etc. to reduce itching

Pretty great, huh?

They also sent us their organic flax hemp & chia blends, organic milled flax seeds, travel coconut oil paks, and recipes! I'm most excited to try this recipe for Flax Hemp Mozzarella Sticks - YUM.
