It is semi-solid at room temperature and melts upon contact with skin. Its primary functions are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"1\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Cleansing and dissolving:<\/strong> An effective, gentle solvent that helps dissolve makeup, sunscreen, sebum, and other oil-based impurities without harsh surfactants.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Skin conditioning:<\/strong> Forms a protective, occlusive layer to reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL), locking in moisture and supporting the skin barrier.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Emollient:<\/strong> Softens, smooths, and nourishes the skin&#8217;s surface.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why we use it:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We use it specifically in our oil-to-milk cleanser for its excellent solvent properties and ability to melt away impurities while remaining gentle. Its use in a rinse-off format allows us to leverage its benefits without the comedogenic risk associated with leave-on products. It provides effective cleansing with a touch of nourishing emollience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Fatty acid profile:<\/strong> Rich in saturated fatty acids, primarily <strong>lauric<\/strong> acid (approx. 45-50%), which has antimicrobial properties. It has a high <strong>oleic<\/strong> acid content relative to other saturated fats, contributing to its spreadability.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>INCI: COCOS NUCIFERA (COCONUT) OILType: Vegetable oilOrigin: Cold-pressed or refined from the kernel
