Here are the 7 tricks or mantras that will help you move towards slow beauty. Following these 7 tricks will help you move towards a pure and a healthy life.
1. Virgin Coconut Oil Improves dental health
Say goodbye to your synthetic mouthwashes. Virgin Coconut oil is the best replacement for this. It contains antioxidants that detoxify your mouth and help in maintaining oral health. Just take two spoons of Virgin Coconut Oil, rinse your mouth for 5 – 10 seconds with it, and then brush your teeth. Be careful not to swallow the coconut oil.
2. Great ingredient while Cooking
Regular cooking oil generally tends to do more damage than good to your body. Experts recommend using Cold pressed coconut oil as it improves metabolism, increases good cholesterol, and also accelerates fat burning. You can also replace butter with Virgin Coconut Oil. Taking one teaspoon of Virgin Coconut Oil every morning has been shown to improve health over time.
3. Quick supply of energy
Goodbye laziness, we have our energy ingredient with us. According to Healthline, “Coconut Oil is said to have Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) that go straight to our liver and become a rapid energy supply.” A lot of sports nutrition products have MCTs in them.
4. VCO helps remove makeup
Coconut oil stabilizes or breaks up water-resistant substances (eyeliners, mascara). These substances are found in eyeliners, mascaras. Cold Pressed Virgin Coconut Oil is 100% safe and recommended by Dermatologists for skincare. This makes it the most suitable product for the removal of makeup (especially eye makeup which is difficult to take off).
Pro Tip: If you are someone who loves to use makeup on your skin, applying virgin coconut oil before putting on makeup moisturizes your skin and helps your makeup stay longer. We recommend applying coconut oil much before you apply makeup so that your skin breathes in it and absorbs it beautifully before you put on the makeup.
5. VCO helps with memory disorders
A study published in 2004 found that coconut oil improved memory due to the Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs) being absorbed in the body, they can more efficiently fuel brain cells. MCTs can be accessed easily in the brain without insulin; this is great for Alzheimer’s patients who lose the ability to create insulin. The Ketones from coconut oil can create an alternate source of energy to help repair brain function.
6. Natural Deodorant
You would be surprised to know that the sweat that we release doesn’t have any smell. It’s the bacteria that live on your skin that create those not-so-good odours. Cold Pressed Virgin Coconut Oil is said to have anti-bacterial properties, these make it one of the best natural deodorants. Now you can replace your chemical-based deodorant with organic coconut oil and move towards a much healthier style of living.
You can also add your favourite essential oils along with coconut oil for added fragrance. At The Rainforest, we recommend adding lavender oil to your coconut oil every night for a good smell and better sleep.
7. Reduction of stretch marks and burn scars
