Coconut Oil for Keratosis Pilaris and Razor Bumps

Keratosis Pilaris and razor burn cuase bumpy, chicken-like skin, usually on arms or legs. Its is itchy, irritating and especially annoying when you are trying to wear clothes that show the bumps.

Organic, extra virgin coconut oil is a quick, moisturizing fix. Usually to moisten your skin, lotion is used. The problem is lotion only temporarily makes your skin soft. The difference with coconut oil is that it soaks into your skin and erases bumps.

Apply the oil on your skin like you would lotion focusing on bumpy areas. At first, do this every night or after you shower. When first putting it on your skin, it seems oily but you will notice it drys fast. After a few days or weeks (depending on how extreme your skin is) use it about two or three times a week.

Natural Skin Care

     Everybody seems to be looking and searching for the perfect acne eraser, moisteriser, and face wash. It also seems most eat our money, and don't work anyways. There are cheap, easy, and natural ways to keep a good complexion. 

#1: Tea tree oil

     If you have a pesty pimple this is a quick fix. Drip one drop of tea tree oil on a Q-Tip. Dab on popped or non popped pimple. DO NOT spread around area to avoid dryness. Repeat once a day until the pimple is gone. I also recommend a face wash that contains tea tree oil for anybody, ecpecially for those with an oily complexion.

#2: Apple cider vinegar

      You can dab on a pimple once a day or scrub on your face before you wash your face at night. Honestly this stuff can be used for anything from acne treatment to cold treatments and weight loss.

#3: Water

     You need to drink plenty of water anyways. But if you really want to see some permanent results try drinking a gallon of water a day for a couple weeks and you will notice amazing changes on your face (and even body). Also cut out sugary drinks (SODA!!). Drinking lots of water for the rest of your life will flush out pimples period.

#4: Lemon

     Rubbing lemon juice on your face is detoxing and rich with vitamin C.

#5: Coconut oil

     This can be used in replace of a moisteriser, but works better. Just everyday before you put on makeup lather a pinch of coconut oil on your face. In a few weeks your skin tone will be even and eventually you won't need to use foundation.

#6: Bannana Peel

     This idea may seem bannanas but it can be really helpful. First eat a bannana! Rub the inside part of the peel on your face then rinse after ten minutes. This leaves your face fresh and soft!
