Cold-Pressed Coconut Oil | Unrefined Carrier Oil for Skin, Hair & Formulation

Description

Our cold-pressed coconut oil is extracted from dried coconut kernels without high heat or chemical solvents, so it keeps its natural aroma and fatty acid profile. It is unrefined, unbleached and free from additives.

Whether you’re making a hair butter, a body balm, a soap bar or a simple oil blend, it’s a reliable base ingredient that formulators and DIY makers use again and again.

Why choose cold-pressed?

• Minimal processing: Extracted without high-heat refining, so the oil keeps its natural character.
• Natural coconut scent: No deodorising and no added fragrance.
• Rich in lauric acid: A medium-chain fatty acid that coconut oil is known for.
• Versatile: One oil, many uses, from scalp and hair care to balms, scrubs and soaps.

Popular uses of coconut oil

• Haircare: Pre-wash treatments, hot oil masks, sealing moisture into hair and scalp oils
• Skincare: Body butters, lotion bars, lip balms, massage oils and cleansing balms
• Soap making: Adds hardness, cleansing power and a fluffy lather in cold-process soap
• DIY and formulation: Scrubs, bath melts, deodorant creams and herbal infusions (it makes a good infusion base for botanicals).

How to use

• Hair: Warm a small amount between your palms and work it through lengths and ends. Leave for 30 minutes to overnight, then shampoo out.
• Skin: Apply a thin layer to damp skin to help lock in moisture. Patch test first.
• Formulating: Typically used at 10-30% in balms and body/ hair butters and 15-30% in cold-process soap. Always run your own batch tests.

A note on texture: Coconut oil melts at around 24°C. In warm weather it will be liquid and in cooler weather it will turn solid. Both are completely normal and don’t affect quality. To liquefy it, place the sealed container in warm water.
