Coconut Oil as a Lotion Alternative If you suffer from dry skin, then coconut oil may be your savior. Personally, I am more of a shea butter girl. I've found that thicker oils and butters tend to work wonders on my skin. However, there are a lot of good benefits for using coconut oil for your skin as well — and many people prefer thinner oils such as coconut oil for skin purposes.
The best way to use coconut oil as a moisturizer is to apply it directly to the skin after you get out of the shower. Just douse your body in coconut oil and wait to be amazed of how soft your skin will feel. One of my ex-boyfriends used coconut oil after every shower to treat his eczema and it cleared up completely! So don't sleep on the coconut oil. It may just give you the softest skin you've ever felt — I can definitely say that was the case for my ex!
