Yes, it’s true! The big day has finally arrived! Today is the official launch of my first Ebook!
Coconut Oil For Your Skin – Nourishing Your Body From The Outside In is a true labor of love. I adore coconut oil for 160 reasons but have been so very impressed with it as I have used it on my skin.
As a result of a rather bizarre skin condition I was blessed with, I have been dabbling in the fine art of making personal care products (aka toiletries) for over 10 years. I have made everything from shampoo to body wash to lotions and exfoliating scrubs. I never seemed to find the right blend of butters and oils and it was incredibly frustrating. Then, I discovered the amazing healing powers of coconut oil a couple of years ago.
Coconut oil is the most nourishing oil you can put onto your skin and into your body. Pure virgin (unrefined) coconut oil is the best natural ingredient for skin lotion. It prevents destructive free-radical formation and provides protection against them. It can help to keep the skin from developing liver spots, and other blemishes caused by aging and over exposure to sunlight. It helps to keep connective tissues strong and supple so that the skin doesn’t sag and wrinkle.
The small molecular structure of coconut oil allows for easy absorption through the skin and into the cell structure of the connective tissues. This means that it has the ability to actually restore damaged or diseased skin. Coconut oil will also have lasting benefits, unlike most lotions. It can help bring back a youthful appearance. The coconut oil will aid in removing the outer layer of dead skin cells, making the skin smoother. The skin will become more evenly textured with a healthy “shine”. While doing this the coconut oil will penetrate into the deeper layers of the skin and strengthen the underlying tissues.
Clearly, coconut oil needs to be present in every product you put onto your skin! This is why I have worked so hard to create recipes for personal care products that incorporate coconut oil.
Why should you invest your precious time and resources into making your own skin care products? Easy – homemade products are free of added chemicals, dyes, synthetics, and other nasty stuff most commercial products have. They are also very cost effective. It might not seem like it at first but you will come to realize that a little product goes a long way and that your ingredients will really be able to stretch.
Why should you invest in MY Ebook? I’ll give you 3 reasons.
1. The 40 recipes in this Ebook are all simple to make. I made sure of that. I know that I do not have the time to sit in the kitchen for 8 hours trying to concoct a 4 ounce jar of face wash.
2. The ingredients in the recipes are all readily available at health food stores and online. I have no interest in sending anyone on a wild goose chase for elusive and exotic ingredients.
3. Every single one of my products work and they work great! Scratch that – they are fantastic. Plus, they are all customizable. You can pretty much use any essential oils of your choice should you decide to do something different than what I suggest.
Just in case those reasons were not compelling enough, Coconut Oil For Your Skin also offers information on carrier oils, butters, and essential oils. I even included a pretty cool chart outlining both the physical and emotional benefits of the essential oils called for in the recipes. I also discuss storage of finished products as well as ingredients. Seriously – I did not leave anything out.
That all sounds great but I am sure you are wondering about the recipes themselves. What can you expect to find in the Ebook?
- 8 recipes for the bath/shower;
- 6 recipes for body care products like lotions and creams including a cellulite cream and an eczema salve;
- 6 recipes dedicated to your face;
- 5 shampoo recipes;
- 4 recipes that serve as conditions and hair treatments;
- 5 lip balms and;
- 6 miscellaneous recipes such as insect repellant, deodorant, wart remover, “love potion,” toothpaste, and a PMS blend.

Congratulations on the release of your ebook.
We are using Coconut Oil on a daily basis, as a moisturizer for my sons eczema prone skin (it never burns) and I use it instead of body lotion and face cream at night. Btw it works also great with yeast infection. We both love it, I never tried to make a cream myself though.

My husband and I would love to be one of the lucky winners of your new book. We both suffer from extreme skin problems and struggle with finding products we can use. Your book sounds like it would be the perfect solution for us. On a recent trip to the Commissary I picked up a jar of coconut oil. I did not know it would have so many uses as I just read on the write up about your book! Thank you !!

I have recently jumped on the coconut oil bandwagon. I used it to cure my nipple thrush and my babies oral thrush. Sooo good!

Ooh, what a neat ebook. Coconut oil is a fave here, but I don’t have a lot of routine uses except as moisturizer and cooking oil.
Would love to learn more!! And, my skin would thank me for it!!

Congrats on you E-Book. I love coconut oil and could use more ideas on how to use it. I’ve been making my own face/body balm and love it
Congratulations and thanks for the opportunity to win a copy of your book. I remember growing up in Jamaica and going to my granny’s home, she would use coconut oil on our hair and as our lotion. I now use it on my second son for eczema and cradle cap.
**** I posted before but it didn’t show, disregard if this is a duplicate****
Congrats on the e-publishing, many wishes for top sales!
I would love to win a copy so I can try Coconut Oil products with my sensitive skin child and possibly his sibling due in August.
I would love to check out this book.
We use coconut oil for cooking at our house and my wife uses it as a moisturizer as well.
I tell her that she smells a little bit like an Almond Joy candy bar. Luck for me I like Almond Joys.
Cheers
It’s never too late to improve your information and your contents inspire me.
