Could I mix this with coconut oil and use it on my skin? Is it possible to use too much of the vitamin E?

I think that as long as you don't use the whole bottle, it's fine. I'm sure some of the Vitamin E crosses over into your system, but, it's most likely not enough to overdose on Vit E!

Avocado oil can be applied on the skin, hair, fingernails and face....just keep away from eyes. I use mixture of Avocado, Coconut, Almond, Castor oil in a bottle as a mixture...use these all as well....with a only a "drop" of each in my shampoos, lotions, bottle body washes.....only takes a small amount and your skin is healthier and glows and all these make you hair grow faster.....apply to the roots....old fashioned tip... I have used forever.....Good Luck Mindy

I don't *think* so -- it is very thick and sometimes gives me a pimple if I use too much. Check the ingredient list for oils??

I don't know exactly...I don't think I would consume this intentionally. Fractionated coconut oil is best for skin/haircare- in which case it doesnt matter really if its refined

I use coconut oil for multiple purposes: cooking or adding moisture to my hair and skin. For the coconut butter, I use it in place of butter or margarine on toast, in smoothies or in various recipes. It is great in pumpkin bread! I have also blended coconut butter with filtered and/or coconut water to make coconut milk...it was wonderful!

It is coconut oil. It is not virgin oil, so it does not smell and taste coconut. Yes, I use it on my skin.

I use to just mix about 1/4 of a teaspoon with my regular moisturizer. I did stop using it thou,only because for me,it was irritating for my skin.vitaminC can be strong in this form.

I use coconut, olive oil and almond oil depending on what I'm using it for. You can use some of the oils in eye cream. You need to know which ones first....don't make the mistake of using a Hot EO. Also, if you're using a Hot EO on your face, be sure to use enough oil with it (ie. Coconut, olive, etc.)

Hi Melinda, as someone who researches natural products & been using coconut oil for almost a year now, I would apply at bedtime. I typically moisturizer with coconut oil before bed... More time to absorb... That's what I would do (to start) and see how it works. Good luck :)

I don't use it at all. I got my money back and threw it away because I had an allergic reaction to it. Now I just use coconut oil and it works beautifully.

I just used 16oz shea to 8oz coconut oil and mixed it with my stand mixer. I got a several month supply out of that and still gave some away.

I am concerned about this also but just quit taking my multi-vitamin because it had folic acid in it instead of folate so... Also, while looking at my Vitamin E pill, it is oil based, as is the vitamin A and Vitamin D. This capsule is a medium capsule of dry stuff so how can it have 100% of Vitamins A (as retinyl acetate), C (as ascorbic acid), D (as ergocalciferol), and E (as di-alpha-tocopherylacetate) ??? I'll try it for two months and see if it can hydrate and/or rejuvenate my skin from the ceramides (label says: Ceramides (providing glycolipids, phytoceramides, and glycosylceramides).

I am not an authority on skin product; but for me, it has slowed the aging process and has made my skin so much softer. I believe coconut oil is the beneficial ingredient.

I use coconut oil for everything, but some people do have irritation with using it as a moisturizer, especially on the face. I normally add it to shea butter, but you definitely can use it alone as a moisturizer. Try it on a little area first for 24 hours and see how it goes. Also, as another reviewer said- a little goes a long way so start out with a small amount and give it time to soak in. It does have "sunscreen-like" properties, but nothing strong enough to really protect you from the sun.

No, you would use cocoa butter, coconut OIL, or shea butter. see a recipe at www.wellnessmama.com

Yes. I use it with extra virgin olive oil; I take few drops of vitamin E oil and a few drops of olive oil. Both oils blend very well. I use this formula on my face, hands, and feet and it works very well on my skin.
