Hey guys! This is a video on how I use coconut oil weekly, and how it has benefited me. I have extremely dry skin and this product has been an absolute life saver! Some benefits I am listing below are all from research I have done online. I am not a nutritionist, but I am passionate about learning about products that are healthy for you!
