Salad to skincare: coconut oil is a pantry hero
Cold-pressed coconut oil is the gift that keeps on giving. Turns out, it’s the all-rounder of your pantry.
Before we tell you all the ways to use your Let’s Think Coconut Oil, let’s do a freshness check:
-
Does it smell strongly of fresh coconut?
-
Is it a white solid at room temperature? Pure coconut oil begins to solidify below 24ºC.
If the answer to those questions is yes, you’re ready to start working with this versatile oil.
BAKING
Did you know that oil is regularly used in baking, especially when making cakes? Cakes often use butter or oil as their source of fat. While butter provides richness and stability, oil traps moisture longer, keeping your cake impossibly soft and fresh for days. Our cold-pressed coconut oil adds a lovely nutty flavor to your bakes too – give it a try in your Carrot Cake!
MAKEUP REMOVER
Melt away your makeup, no bottles or wipes needed! Cold-pressed coconut oil works as an excellent natural makeup remover. Its fatty acids break down and dissolve waterproof and oil-based makeup like mascara and foundation.
HAIRCARE
There’s a reason why no product works as well as a Sunday champi. Cold-pressed coconut oil provides deep moisturisation to your scalp, making your hair shinier and more elastic. The lauric acid in coconut oil binds to hair protein, preventing breakage. Use a small amount on dry hair to tame frizz and add an extra shine.
