Benefits and use

Coconut Oil is the base of our soaps.

Here you can find everthing you want to know about Coconut Oil and why we have made it one of our primary ingredients.

The coconut is one of the healthiest food we can find. Coconut has been used for at least 2000 years. Originally from Polynesia and Southeast Asia, Coconut Oil is a natural vegetable oil with a sweet and gourmet scent that is extracted directly from the white flesh of the Coconut. Coconut oil is one of two oils that can be extracted from Coconuts. Indeed, depending on the extraction process, we will obtain either coconut oil or copra oil, two oils that are very different. In our Chakra Soaps, we use Coconut Oil because of all its wonderful benefits for the skin.

​

The flesh of the coconut is separated from the milk before being grated then soaked in water and finally pressed. The milk obtained is then decanted to obtain the precious coconut oil. Coconut oil mechanically cold extracted in this way preserves its quality and nutrients from which all its benefits derive.

​

Very rich in lauric acid and myristic acid, coconut oil also contains vitamins (E, A, B3, B5 and B6) and phytosterols. Like most vegetable oils, coconut oil has nourishing, healing, regenerating and protective properties, which makes it a very popular cosmetic treatment to naturally take care of the skin and hair and in particular dry hair. On the skin, it can be used as a healing treatment but also as a make-up remover. Coconut oil also works wonders on the skin! It is suitable for all skin types, especially dry and sensitive skin. We only use Organic and Unrefined Coconut Oil so it keeps all its wonderful properties.
