The Coconut oil is a comedogenic oil, which means that it clogs the pores of the skin. It is therefore not a good ally for the face.
On the other hand, it will be our ally in our deodorant and our toothpaste because it creates a mechanical barrier against bacteria. See our blog post on dental care.
Coconut oil is found in solid form (often called “butter”) when it is at the temperature below 25 ° C and takes the liquid form when the temperature exceeds 25 ° C.
Deodorized oil is most often used in soap making where it becomes saponified and causes it to lose properties.
