Lipstick/ Lip Balm/ Lip Gloss with Coconut Oil for Extra Moisture and Chapped Lips

Coconut Oil (Cocos Nucifera) is derived from the coconut palm tree and generally used as a dry skin remedy and it can also be used to combat chapped lips due to its high moisturizing effects. Coconut oil is high in lauric acid, about 50% and other fatty acids that nourish, smooth and treat extra dry skin. A study conducted in 2013 discovered that adding a small dose of virgin coconut oil to an existing skin lotion or skincare routine can yield a higher skin hydration and increase skin elasticity. 

Benefits of Coconut Oil on the Lips:

  • Coconut Oil is an emollient: a moisturizer that softens, soothes and retains moisture into the skin to  protect the skin’s elasticity. Emollients moisturize the skin to alleviate dryness.
  • Coconut Oil has antimicrobial Properties: coconut oil contains high levels of  Lauric acid, which has antimicrobial properties to combat harmful gems: bacteria, fungi and viruses. This will help to keep your lips germs-free and slow down infection.

Overall, coconut oil is a great addition to your lip care routine to moisturize your lips the day,, fight off germs and help to disinfect and protect cracked lips from infections.
