I love beauty and taking care of my health. As I get older, both are more important than ever. After the last few years dealing with COVID, quarantine, and school closing, I am taking the time for my fitness and health. Since adding a puppy to our family, I am forced to take him outside! I am working to get my steps in each day! I am all about improving myself!
Let’s take a look at how to add coconuts to your daily life!

Disclosure: I received a product to review in exchange for my honest opinion. This post may contain affiliate links.
I have recently started using coconut oil on a regular basis. I’ve been using coconut oil on and off for the last decade or so. I tried MCT oil last year and have been using it every single day since!
Do you use coconuts for health? Do you use coconut oil for beauty?
A few months ago, I discovered Viva Naturals and was sent their coconut oil to try! I have only been using coconut oil for beauty. I have not been brave enough to try cooking with coconut oil even though I should. Before using Viva Naturals, I was using a store brand coconut oil and it wasn’t as pleasant!
I am so glad I found Viva Naturals. I am so impressed with their coconut oil! Since I love Viva Naturals Coconut Oil, I was excited to try their Organic MCT Oil.
Coconuts For Health
I love my coffee every morning. Just add 1 tablespoon of the Organic MCT Oil to your coffee! I have noticed that the MCT oil helps keep me focused when I need to get things done. It also helps suppress my appetite.



I feel like my energy levels are boosted. As a special needs mom and pup mom, any extra energy is appreciated. I had no idea how much time and energy a puppy can take up. I am grateful I work from home, so I can be here to take him for walks throughout the day!
I also love my health shakes. I tend to have a healthy shake in the afternoon time. It’s a great way to enjoy a snack! I have been adding a tablespoon of Organic MCT Oil to my shakes for an afternoon boost.
Organic MCT Oil can be added to salads, food, and favorite beverages. It is so easy to add to any lifestyle.

Coconut Oil For Beauty
Viva Naturals Coconut Oil is smooth and creamy! It is effortless to use for beauty as it melts quickly and easily. The coconut oil just melts when it touches my skin.
As I mentioned above, I now use coconut oil every single day! Winter is here and my skin is suffering. For a few weeks, I had dry patches on my face. It would hurt just trying to apply moisturizer. I didn’t dare apply any masks or scrubs. I apply Viva Naturals coconut oil on my face before bed. It helps keep my skin moisturized. By the way, the dry patches are gone.
I also apply coconut oil on my eyebrows and lashes. I believe it helps condition and strengthen my brows and lashes!
I also love applying coconut oil to my lips and all over my skin! I especially moisturize my hands before bed! What a great way to protect and moisturize my hands overnight.



Rosemary Essential Oil For Hair
In addition to using coconut oil on my skin, I apply a hair mask every afternoon! I have recently started treating my scalp and hair with conditioning products. I use rosemary essential oil and coconut oil as a carrier oil. I use about a tablespoon of coconut oil and 5 drops of rosemary essential oil and apply on my scalp and throughout my hair.
Rosemary essential oil is said to help improve hair growth, reduce split ends, reduce breakage, and slow graying hair. Overall, I use rosemary essential oil and coconut oil to boost my scalp and hair!

I use coconut oil for both beauty and cooking. Our oldest son uses it and got me into it a few years ago when my skin started developing the dry patches you mentioned. I had read rosemary oil was good for keeping the grey hairs at bay, and I am anxious to try it. Recently, I made a natural colorant mixture of black tea and sage, to spray directly on either the greys or all over my hair. I’ve only used it a couple times so, not sure it’s working. And I don’t have many greys to gather a proper opinion just yet.
I am intrigued! Sounds like I need to try coconut oil asap.
Very interesting
I love coconut hair products!
I love my coffee and putting coconut in the cup seems a bit strange to me. I have heard that coconut oil is good for many things – health and beauty – but have never tried. After reading about the benefits, I think I am willing to give it a try, but there are so many brands out there, it is confusing which to buy and try. I wish we could get a sample pack and choose from there.
Thanks for all your good information.
I love coconut. Thank you for all those great ideas.
I add MCT oil to my coffee every morning
lots of useful tips
Great uses for coconut oil!
I love using coconut oil as a moisturizer. It’s wonderful.
I love coconut oil! I haven’t tried it on my eyebrows/lashes, but will have to soon. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing! I can’t wait to give these a try!
