Frequently Asked Questions

What is fractionated coconut oil?

Our fractionated coconut oil is coconut oil that has been processed so it stays liquid at room temperature. This makes it easier to pour, blend, massage into the skin, and use as a carrier oil.

How is fractionated coconut oil different from regular coconut oil?

Regular coconut oil often becomes solid at cooler room temperatures. Fractionated coconut oil remains liquid, has a lighter feel, and is easier to use in roll-ons, massage oils, body oils, and essential oil blends.

Can I use this as a carrier oil for essential oils?

Yes. Fractionated coconut oil is commonly used as a carrier oil for essential oils. Always follow safe dilution guidelines, especially when applying essential oils to the skin.

Can I use it as a body oil?

Yes. Apply a small amount to clean skin and massage until absorbed. It leaves the skin feeling soft and conditioned without the heavier texture of some thicker oils.

Can I use it on my hair?

Yes. Use a very small amount on the mid-lengths and ends to add softness and shine. Avoid applying too much, especially near the roots, because oil can make hair look greasy.

Can it help with frizz?

It can help smooth the look of dry, frizzy ends when used lightly. Start with one or two drops, rub between the palms, and apply only where needed.

Can I use it as a makeup remover?

Yes. It can be used to help loosen makeup. Apply gently with fingertips or a cotton pad, avoid direct eye contact, and follow with a cleanser if needed.

Is this oil scented?

Pure fractionated coconut oil usually has little to no strong coconut scent. If you prefer scented body oil, you can blend it with properly diluted essential oils.

Will it clog pores?

Everyone’s skin is different. Some people tolerate coconut-based oils well, while others may find them too rich for the face. If you are prone to clogged pores or breakouts, patch test first and consider using it mainly on the body.

Can I use it on sensitive skin?

It may be suitable for many simple body-care routines, but sensitive skin can react to any oil. Patch test first, especially if you plan to use it on the face or blend it with essential oils.

Can I use it after showering?

Yes. It works well after showering when the skin is clean and slightly damp. Apply a small amount and massage until absorbed.

Is it good for massage?

Yes. Its light, smooth, liquid texture makes it useful as a massage oil. It spreads easily and can also be blended with essential oils when properly diluted.

Can I use it in DIY skincare recipes?

Yes. It can be used in many DIY body oils, massage oils, bath oils, roll-ons, and hair oil blends. Use clean tools and containers when making homemade blends.

What size should I choose?

Choose 4 oz if you are trying it for the first time or using it for small DIY blends. Choose 8 oz for regular personal care use. Choose 16 oz if you plan to use it often for massage, body oil, or essential oil blending.

How should I store it?

Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the cap closed to protect the oil from moisture and contamination. Keep away from children and pets.
