100% Pure Coconut Oil - Carrier Oil | Pure, Cosmetic Grade | For Skin & Hair
100% Pure | Unadulterated | No Dilution | Best Results
India's original skin and hair oil — culturally rooted, cosmetically potent, and the lather superstar of soap making.
Coconut Oil (Cocos nucifera) is cold-pressed from fresh coconut meat without heat or chemicals, retaining its characteristic sweet coconut aroma, naturally white colour, and full complement of medium-chain fatty acids — primarily Lauric Acid (48–52%), responsible for its potent antibacterial and antifungal properties.
In India, coconut oil needs no introduction — it has been used for hair, skin, cooking, and ritual for thousands of years. In modern cosmetics, it is an essential component in soap making (providing the richest lather of any carrier oil), a deeply beloved hair conditioning treatment, and a moisturising body oil. Its key limitation is its comedogenicity rating of 4/5 — it is not suitable for facial use on oily or acne-prone skin.
KEY PROPERTIES & BENEFITS
Lauric Acid (48–52%): The most antibacterial fatty acid in nature — effective against skin bacteria, fungi, and some viruses
Hair shaft penetration: The only carrier oil proven to penetrate the hair cortex and reduce protein loss — unique and clinically validated
Lather boosting: Produces the most stable, richest lather of any carrier oil in soap making — the lather workhorse
Deeply moisturising: Occlusive — seals moisture into skin. Ideal for very dry body skin and hair
Antibacterial / antifungal: Effective against Candida, Staphylococcus, and Malassezia — relevant for scalp and body skin
