Daylight saving’s time along with it getting sunny here in southern California has been making me long for the soothing and great smelling benefits of body lotions and creams formulated with coconut. I get so excited for summertime that I’m already indulging in the many uses of the precious fruit (or is it a nut?) of the palm!

Coconut has long been used in beauty products for its amazing repairing and moisturizing properties for the hair and skin. And the scent is delish!

Today I’d like to share with you a few of the coconut products I think are the very best!

Sundari Neem and Coconut Hair Treatment Oil is absolutely amazing for rejuvenating and calming the scalp and for repairing and nourishing the hair. It even encourages hair growth!

Molton Brown offers Molton Brown CoCo de Mer Bath and Shower gel. This amazingly refreshing concoction gently cleanses and leaves you with softer, smoother and a more supple skin.

Last but not least, L’Occitane brings you L’Occitane Shea Butter Body Lotion. The precious coconut oil along with shea butter, natural honey and apricot oil creates the best lotion to nourish, moisturize and protect the skin!

Oh wait…that wasn’t the last statement regarding coconut. The last would be…Don’t forget the pina colada!
