This is a very good carrier oil for dry, itchy, sensitive skin and will not clog pores. Coconut oil is a gift to the soapmaking industry because of it's resistance to rancidity and contribution to a good, hard soap with a wonderful fluffy lather. This is a great oil for general moisturizing and serves as a protective layer, helping to retain the moisture in your skin. It also acts as a mild oil suitable for those with inflamed and irritated skin, and those with skin sensitivities. Coconut oil is without a doubt, the number one lather-producing agent used in soaps. Please note this scent is not reflective of coconut. Also, it is certified organic, refined bleached and deodorized. The process of refining, bleaching and deodorizing uses clay and fuller's earth and no solvents or other chemicals are used in the process.
