I don't add essential oils. Just straight coconut oil. You could add essential oils, but I don't know enough about that to put something on my face.

Google it. Coconut butter is the bomb. Antibacterial, antifungal, gentle on the skin. It doesn't feel greasy to me, but I have dry skin. It looks a bit like white wax when it's solid and it comes in a jar. You can also buy online. I try to get the organic stuff.

It's great to cook with too -very healthy.

As part of my trying to be all natural, I figure if I wouldn't eat it, why would I put it on my skin? Our skin absorbs more than we can through our mouth.
