Hey
lovelies,
We know the
coconut is basically an 'it' fruit at the moment mainly because of its oil
which is very common and popular among most of us. The coconut oil is a multi-purpose
oil that can be used on the hair, skin and even for cooking.
But another content of the coconut fruit that a lot of people over look is the
coconut water. Shout out to my friend Stella for inspiring this post, I'll tell
you a short story of how this post was inspired. Stella bought a bunch of
coconuts that she was going to make her virgin cold pressed coconut oil from,
as she broke the coconuts, I noticed she was pouring the coconut water away and
when I asked her why, she said she was told that drinking coconut water “dulls
the brain”. I laughed out so loud at how ridiculous that sounded and went ahead
and explained to her some beauty benefits of drinking coconut water. Well, to
cut the long story short, we sipped away on coconut water and thus, this post
was born.
Coconut
water for a younger and fresh skin: Those anti-ageing products not really working for you? Regularly
drinking coconut water helps slow down the ageing process and makes your skin
to look younger and fresh by getting rid of the harmful toxins. Coconut water
is considered a good source of anti-oxidants, which means it helps remove the
harmful free radicals that are produced by the body and contribute to skin aging.
Can be used
to reduce acne and dandruff: Coconut water has anti-fungal and anti-bacterial
properties, so regularly applying it to your scalp can help in the prevention and
treatment of issues like dandruff and applying it to the face also helps with
reducing the appearance of acne and blemishes on the skin.
Fights
dehydration and dry skin: Coconut water is the purest liquid on earth after
water, it acts as a light moisturizer for the skin. There is no question about
the fact that when your body is nice and hydrated, your skin automatically
looks better, using a cotton ball soaked with coconut water to apply all over
your face instantly freshens up dull looking skin.
Have you

any coconut water story(ies)? Do you drink coconut water or do you know any
other beauty benefits of using and drinking coconut water? Please share it all

Note:
Although coconut is generally considered safe, it is best to
consult your doctor before consuming or adding it to your diet if pregnant.
