Coconut Milk for Skin If dairy and your tummy aren't exactly friends or you've developed a post-workout smoothie routine, you probably have a carton of coconut milk hanging out in your fridge.

The director of spa and wellness at Carillon Miami Wellness Resort, Melissa Fielding explains this lactose-free alternative not only moisturizes skin, but helps to fight aging, too. In fact, coconut milk isn't just a common ingredient in most dishes in Asia, it's also a popular option at the dermatologist. In various parts of Southeast Asia, you're likely to find 'coconut milk' peels are part of the menu.
After a stressful day at work, you might be bummed to discover you already polished off that bottle of vino from earlier in the week.
