Honestly, not. But I started again, for I am turning 30 God's willing in November. I see my face changes when I apply it. Some people have noticed the change. I've started to see fine lines under my eyes, I don't like them. So I am definitely continuing to use coconut oil. Has it work on your hair growth? I started using Biotin, since my hair is thin, specially at my nape. That disappoints me, and makes me feel soo self-concious ugh....Well, thanks for asking, take care, and God bless.
@dvery1 you should need to take a breath, and relax. Aging is part of every single human being and you should not try and look like you did back in the teen years, I am sure you will be fine. Happy birthday
Girl, you are beautiful at 40! I had known about coconut oil from years back, but somehow it didn't get on my radar...but the health benefits of eating coconut oil recently caught my attention. So, I'm using it on my face, hair and eating it. I just started so wish me luck. Thanks for your video
will just spectrum organic coconut oil unrefined work becuase i cant find the one you have or all the unrefined ones work the same such as virgin and non virgin
We are asking for testimonials on the use of coconut oil. The testimonial will be used in an up coming book called 99 benefits of coconut oil. If you can provide a testimonial please reply. Also, please let us know whether or not you would like your name or a pseudonym used along with your testimonial.
I have been using coconut oil for the last 2 weeks and love it! I ingest 1 tablespoon 3x's a day, use it on my hair, body,feet and face. It has cleared my adult acne, reduced the lines around my eyes and nearly eliminated the lines on my forehead! I found great deals on Nutiva at Amazon. BTW...i am 50 and have no intentions of looking it if I can avoid it!
lol...you're funny. And you look gorgeous to be 40 over here. Coconut oil is good for wrinkles? How often do you use it? I started trying it on my face last night.
You DO look good, hon, very nice skin, very even and smooth. Do you still use your coconut oil? Oh yeah, what is your hair concoction for damaged hair? The same thing with Coconut oil, cocoa butter and witchhazel?
I would have really liked to see those pictures. :-( Thanks for this video! Gives me confidence to go out and buy it! You look beautiful btw. Your skin look gorgeous!
i love this video girl, you look nowhere near 40 but embrace it anyway. you will be forty and fabulous right? i wamted to ask you though, do you rinse the oil off of your face or let it soak in and how often do you do it? your skin looks flawless!
@obamaboy1 Ha Haaaa YES...40 and Fabulous!!! although now I'm 41 LMAO but still Fabulous!!!! LOL I leave the oil on my skin. Only when I use this oil as a "hot" oil treatment in my hair do I rinse it out but on my skin, I just add accordingly until my entire face is moisturized. Just dab some on your cheeks, forehead, chin and work it in with your fingers. If you need a little more..add a little more. I just continue to rub it in until it feels less oily =)
i've been using coconut oil (same brand as a matter of fact) as a moisturizer (skin & hair) too, for about the past month or so, and i'm noticing little blemishes disappearing, and i haven't had any breakouts either, and i'm 44. i also put it on my wet hair and let it air dry. i have locs and they're softer and have a nice lustre. your skin is gorgeous. oh, and it's ok if it solidifies, your body heat melts it really fast.
@deeknits It's Great isn't it!!! LOL I like to use the bottle's pointy tip so that I can oil mu scalp with just working that tip all of my scalp and squeezing out oil ;D but I know what you mean....thanks for sharing :-)
@onstyle108 Thank you so much! and yes..try it! It's great for your hair as well! You can use it as a hot oil treatment. Just apply it all thru your hair and then cover your head with a plastic cap. The heat from your head should be good enough but you can sit under a dryer too. Let me know what you think :-)
@pinkglamgyrl78 I Can! LOl go to spectrumorganics dot c-o-m. (type it out normal in the address bar...I can't put the actula website or even right the c word without YT giving me an erro mesasge) Just type cocnut oil in their search thing and select the unrefined one...that will be the pure one.
you remind me of alicia keys, also you don't look 40 to me. look younger. I got sunburn over the summer and heard coconut oil might repair my skin so yeah...
@blaxican2000 No..I leave it on. It eventually get's absorbed into my skin and of course I'm periodically working it into my skin during the first half hour to an hour. I pretty much wear eye makeup so I can get away with doing that LOL but you can apply just enough to moisurize your skin with out leaving oil still on your face. Just use a lil bit at a time.
Wow, you look amazing! I would never guess you were even near 40! Do you think this would work too for the little lines right below eyes or the fine smile lines. I'm young and no one can really tell, but I don't want them to get bigger. Also, any idea if this works on streach marks?
@KatonaBoat Stretch marks are a tricky thing. If they are fresh..still pink or red in color then yes..coconut oil, cocoa butter, vitamin E..all those any of those are GREAT for skin..but when the stretch marks are lighter than your natural skin tone..then no..there's nothing that you can do to get rid of them aside from laser surgery from what I hear. I think age lines are envitable but if we can keep our skin moist then that should help prolong the lines from deepening for a while.
And sense the spots are gone in the scalp, the fungus on my face is gone as well. Before i told you it was coconut soap, but that oatmeal soap. Now i use the coconut oil milk soap & coconut oil. I plan to use this stuff all over the body. Your post was valueable, & thankyou. Do you have cute toes? Anyway for footfetishers like me, you look nice & i was curious. Take care, & are there other benefits of coconut that you'd like to share. Take care, foot-man.
Rickames here Michelle. It's early in the morning & beleive it or not you're the first woman i though about when i looked at myself this morning. Wow, you take it as a compliment. I've been using coconut milk soap & coconut oil on my skin. It's made my face lighter & fresher looking. Because i'm exposed to the sun from years, & recent execerising at 7:00 pm, it takes a little longer for the fine lines to disappear, but they are shrinking. The oil makes my scalp sensitve, but the spots are gone.
@bailey1950 I've been legally blind for the past 7yrs so driving is out for me. How is the health of your hair now that you've started using the oil? Any difference?
@ttopcar : Sorry to hear about being legally blind.. Ouch!I have noticed a difference in my hair.. It's more heatlhy.. I'm digging that blond! It looks good on you..
I've been using coconut oil for a week now and it broke me out so bad... man I have pimples w whiteheads all over , I don't understand why it's not working for me... I'm too through
@blackleatherjkt Oh Nooooo! Really??? Did you by chance apply the oil to a "not so clean" face? b/c one time my face felt dry to me, so I put some of the oil on my face and the next day, I developed a huge pimple on my cheek area. I figured it was becaue my face wasn't freshly cleaned before I put the oil on it...it was during the early evening when I put it on.
@ttopcar Yes, I washed my face first w ambi complexion soap, and I had the coconut oil for a week before I wld use it because it didn't make sense to me to put coconut oil on an already oily face. And exactly what I thought would happen did. I actually counted 35 pimples on my face, God as my witness I am not lying. I think if your skin is already acne prone it will make it worse. So now I'm tring to get it clear again w African black soap, witch hazel (toner) moisturizer.
@blackleatherjkt Wow..I'm so sorry that happened to you. when I read that you already have oily skin I thought Ouch..the oil may not be for you then...but there are tons of other earthly, healthy products out there. i have an oily T zone but I haven't had any bad break outs. I still get a blemish here and there but nothing bad. and I now only use the oil 2 maybe 3 times a week. I use it moe on my hair than my skin lately. Again I'm really sorry :-(
@BEAUTIFULHAIR3 You know I had alot of people telling me that, and to keep using it until all the toxins were up but I'm afraid to use it again. I have now switched from the African black soap to the Burt Bees line. It's been a week and a half now since using and the acneis almost completely gone. I think it's a case of finding what works best for you, so I'm going to stick with it. I do however use the coconut oil to moisturize my legs and feet.
coconut oil rocks!! what i do now is put aloe vera gel on face (just a little) and "seal" it with extra virgin coconut oil.. best moisturizer ever.. mother nature knows best!!
i have oily skin, so i use retin- a micro to help with that but it overdries my skin so ive been use cocount oil as a moisturizer and it has helped. Also i use it as a sunscreen becuase it is a safer alternative than using the sunscreens that are on the market.
Hi Michelle, it's Rickames again. I mentioned to you that I went to the dermatologist. The steroids seems to releive the fungus in my face. My scalp still has the light spots, but it's getting better. Like i told you i will go to the cocount soap. The derm. gave me samples called RETIN- MICRO. She said it's the only product that's FDA approved for firmer skin, that has fillers in it. In case anyone is curious about it, they could ask a derm. & get their opinion. I'll send more info.
Love this video, thank you. I am a firm believer of coconut oil and I take 1-3 tablespoons per day, usually in my smoothies but I do not put it on my face regularly. I am going to start, starting tonight!!!
Wow your skin looks great! thx for this video : ) . I was so bummed out cause i found out my 20$ organic lotion brand company was being sued for having cancer ingredients : ( . Sad they don't even put that in the label!! I have that jar of coconut oil : ) gonna go try it right now. Thank you : ) wow 40!!!!!! NO WAY!! No joke u look 20's!! not exaggerating! wow
I recently went to a dermatologist to have a fugus lookded at on my face & scalp. Before I went there I had a coconut bar soap. Within 3 or 4 day's I saw it was working on the face. I stopped, because I wanted the fungus gone. Sterroid & something else for my scalp. I'm going to keep using what the physican recommended because it's a yeast. But, the cocount bar already almost cleared up the yeast in my face, but not the sclap yet. So I'm going back to regular bar soap till it's gone & use oil to
@ttopcar When I spoke to the dermatologist i asked the questions about younger fimer looking skin. She didn't know of anything but use sunblock, avoid the sun, and a filler over the counter. I was disappointed because I thought she could give more infomation. I'm a nice looking yr old black guy. I was fine but got older. And still get some but not as much notices from the women. I look fairly younger than most guys, but I want to look firm & still good for you women & myself. Recomendations?
@rickames Well...as far as I know..there really isn't any products out there that will give you firmer skin. I attribute my firm skin to my black side ;D Definetly limit your sun exposure. I wear a baseball cap most times when I'm out and about. I don't use sunscreen but I do drink a lot of water..it may not be close to the recommended amount but I'll drink water mostly. I don't keep soda in the fridge...that's more of a treat for me. and eat plenty of fruits and veggies.
@LionGoddess1 LOL..ya know what...I don't notice a smell! My sister did when she was here visiting me..but I don't. Guess when you get older your sense of smell fades LMAO!!!!!!!!!
@soopinkk Nope..not a stupid question ;D Just place the container (whatever the oil is in) in warm water. so fill your bathroom or kitchen sink with warm water and put the jar/bottle/etc in the water for a few moments. OR you can simply melt the product between your fingers or hands. Just scoop out the amount you need at a time and rub your hands together.
I like your video. I've been wondering about using coconut oil on the face. It looks like it worked for you. Thanks for the information. By the way you don't look anywhere near 40. :)
@ladytess23 Aww..thank you so much ;D I hear ya tho..oil on the face??? Ha Ha Ha but I'm still lovin' it ;D If you try it ou,t let me kow what you think :-)
Girl you look good you don't look a day over 30 I would never have guessed your age as 40.I was amazed to find that out. thanks 4 da info.I'm 28 and I started having fine lines it appeared out of nowhere is like one day i looked way younger than 28 da next day I aged atleast 5 years.
I liked this video and your sense of humor :) Thumbs up ^.^

And exactly what I thought would happen did. I actually counted 35 pimples on my face, God as my witness I am not lying. I think if your skin is already acne prone it will make it worse. So now I'm tring to get it clear again w African black soap, witch hazel (toner) moisturizer.

@blackleatherjkt Wow..I'm so sorry that happened to you. when I read that you already have oily skin I thought Ouch..the oil may not be for you then...but there are tons of other earthly, healthy products out there. i have an oily T zone but I haven't had any bad break outs. I still get a blemish here and there but nothing bad. and I now only use the oil 2 maybe 3 times a week. I use it moe on my hair than my skin lately. Again I'm really sorry :-(

@blackleatherjkt i think the coconut oil was pulling the toxins out of your face. unrefined coconut oil is great . you should try it again
BEAUTIFULHAIR3 1 year ago
@BEAUTIFULHAIR3 You know I had alot of people telling me that, and to keep using it until all the toxins were up but I'm afraid to use it again. I have now switched from the African black soap to the Burt Bees line. It's been a week and a half now since using and the acneis almost completely gone. I think it's a case of finding what works best for you, so I'm going to stick with it. I do however use the coconut oil to moisturize my legs and feet.

i have oily skin, so i use retin- a micro to help with that but it overdries my skin so ive been use cocount oil as a moisturizer and it has helped. Also i use it as a sunscreen becuase it is a safer alternative than using the sunscreens that are on the market.

Hi Michelle, it's Rickames again. I mentioned to you that I went to the dermatologist. The steroids seems to releive the fungus in my face. My scalp still has the light spots, but it's getting better. Like i told you i will go to the cocount soap. The derm. gave me samples called RETIN- MICRO. She said it's the only product that's FDA approved for firmer skin, that has fillers in it. In case anyone is curious about it, they could ask a derm. & get their opinion. I'll send more info.

Love this video, thank you. I am a firm believer of coconut oil and I take 1-3 tablespoons per day, usually in my smoothies but I do not put it on my face regularly. I am going to start, starting tonight!!!

I recently went to a dermatologist to have a fugus lookded at on my face & scalp. Before I went there I had a coconut bar soap. Within 3 or 4 day's I saw it was working on the face. I stopped, because I wanted the fungus gone. Sterroid & something else for my scalp. I'm going to keep using what the physican recommended because it's a yeast. But, the cocount bar already almost cleared up the yeast in my face, but not the sclap yet. So I'm going back to regular bar soap till it's gone & use oil to
rickames 1 year ago
@rickames Oh wow! I think the oil was helping it..but yeah..use the prescription but definetly continue to use the oil afterwards ;D

@ttopcar When I spoke to the dermatologist i asked the questions about younger fimer looking skin. She didn't know of anything but use sunblock, avoid the sun, and a filler over the counter. I was disappointed because I thought she could give more infomation. I'm a nice looking yr old black guy. I was fine but got older. And still get some but not as much notices from the women. I look fairly younger than most guys, but I want to look firm & still good for you women & myself. Recomendations?
rickames 1 year ago
@rickames Well...as far as I know..there really isn't any products out there that will give you firmer skin. I attribute my firm skin to my black side ;D Definetly limit your sun exposure. I wear a baseball cap most times when I'm out and about. I don't use sunscreen but I do drink a lot of water..it may not be close to the recommended amount but I'll drink water mostly. I don't keep soda in the fridge...that's more of a treat for me. and eat plenty of fruits and veggies.

This is probably a stupid question, but how do you melt the coconut oil? Did you heat it up in the microwave?
soopinkk 1 year ago
@soopinkk Nope..not a stupid question ;D Just place the container (whatever the oil is in) in warm water. so fill your bathroom or kitchen sink with warm water and put the jar/bottle/etc in the water for a few moments. OR you can simply melt the product between your fingers or hands. Just scoop out the amount you need at a time and rub your hands together.
