When I was a teenager I painted my face with coconut oil. It was one of the things that were made between the drops, I was advised, advised to others, and so did this.
This also for the fact that something with such a sweet smell could not hurt us, or could it?
For several years I had no problem, my face was smooth and clean, as if I had used an Instagram filter. This until my face of an adult began to be seriously threatened by black spots and acne. Why? Who the hell knew. The devil works mysteriously. And when I say the devil, I mean pores.
Of course my mind went to coconut oil for a moment. Then I talked to some of my friends and had the same complaints. Coconut oil had caused a lot of skin problems. I was persuaded. However, today I am not here to tell you to give up, I'll just tell you what it is like, then decide for yourself.
PREPARED TO HAVE DISCUSSIONS
I'm sorry coconut oil, but you're not a good friend for the skin. At least, for anyone who has an acne-prone skin.
"Although it has been declared useful, coconut oil is as severe as there is potential to block the pores. It's a very thick oil that does not allow the pores to be aired, but it creates a layer, "says Joshua Zeichner, director of cosmetic research at Mount Sinai Hospital.
DO NOT USE TO RUN YOUR PUPPIES
In recent years, coconut oil is widely used to cure acne, due to its lauric acid content, an antibacterial. However, this does not make the use of coconut oil effective, but no studies have shown any improvement in acne. All this fame about the marvelous properties of coconut oil does not have a scientific basis.
"Some people are very sensitive to a number of external factors, including coconut oil, as there are others who can use it without a problem. The question is, why do you risk so much? "
Unfortunately, the only way to find out if your skin accepts coconut oil is to try your luck. Why, when in fact in the market there are very good products that can really help you.
