Introduction
Yo, what’s up guys? David Hoang coming at you from supplementsuperhero.com. Today, I’m going to be doing a brief general review of Shea Moisture’s coconut oil brand.
I should say that again, the Shea Moisture brand of coconut oil. It’s 100% organic….100% extra virgin is what they call it.
I actually wanted to do this because me and my mom both had a great experience with the product, and I’ve got a couple of coworkers who really talk highly about coconut oil.
Some Benefits
What’s really nice about it is that there’s so many benefits to coconut oil. I mean there’s a lot of different benefits.
But when it comes to skincare, they say that it’s really, really good for your skin and helps to moisturize the skin, and it can really, really help with your hair as well, giving your hair kind of a nice natural-type oily effect for styling or whatever. But basically, there’s a lot of benefits to it.
I mean, for this particular brand, what’s nice is that it’s very natural, and you’ll see it once I actually open that up. But basically, you see here, I don’t know if you guys can read that or not, but there’s a lot of cool things to the product.
There’s no parabens, no phthalates, no propylene glycol, no mineral oil, no sulfate, no animal testing. So if you’re vegan, vegetarian, you love animals…this is a great product for you.
About The Shea Moisture Brand
It’s pretty cool. I mean, I didn’t really know a whole lot about the Shea Moisture brand. I mean, I’ve heard of it before but didn’t really know a lot about it.
But it’s a family-based business. I mean, actually, it was started by a lady named Sophie Tucker back in Africa, and then basically their grandchildren continued on the business and continue to sell tons of Shea Moisture products.
Promotes Healthy Skin
But they say that coconut oil has a lot of vitamin E in it, which is super-good for your skin…super-healthy.
There’s also a lot of natural triglycerides as well, which helps to really retain moisture in the skin. That’s what helps to keep the skin nice and smooth, moist, so on and so forth.
So, if you live in a climate where it gets really, really cold and your skin gets really irritated, itchy, gets super-dry like my skin, it’s definitely a good product for that.
I live in Wisconsin. Here in Wisconsin, it gets super, super, super-cold during the winter.
Actually, it’s December right now as I’m filming this video, and it’s like negative one degree outside. Yeah, it gets pretty cold here so this comes in handy significantly.
It actually helped to get rid of my mom’s eczema. She developed eczema on her scalp. I applied it on her head on a daily basis, and now that eczema is gone.
She has excellent hair growth on her head, and I still apply it to her head maybe once every one to two weeks just to make sure that that eczema doesn’t come back.
Product Opening
Let’s open it up here. This is what it looks like on the inside. Okay, so it’s very white, very coconut-y. My only complaint is that it’s a little chunky. That’s the one downside to it.
It’s super-chunky. It solidifies when it’s at room temperature; but then once you actually put it into your hand and you rub it in a couple times, it starts to melt and it starts to become more oily.
So, if it does solidify and it is a little solid, you might want to rub it in your hand quite a bit so that it gets nice and oily like that. Or some people recommend putting it in a little dish- a little cup, and putting it in the microwave and warming it up that way.
But, you do have to rub it in a little bit. That’s the only one complaint. But it’s nice because you know that it’s kind of more natural because it does that. If it wasn’t as natural, it wouldn’t do that…it wouldn’t solidify like that. But here, you know it’s natural because it does do that.
So, again, great for your skin.
I know they have also a lot of coconut oil products out there for dieting and as a dietary supplement. This is not designed for that. This is specifically for skin use, but you can put it all over your body.
Put it on your hands, feet, face even, put it on your scalp, put it on your hair, and it’s all super, super-good for that.
