Velona USDA Certified ORGANIC Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is cold-pressed, a process where the oil is physically extracted without the use of heat or chemical solvents. Coconut oil is solid below and liquid above room temperature because it consists mostly of short-chain fatty acids. It is frequently used in food and cosmetic applications due of its long shelf life, resistance to oxidation and other desirable physical properties. Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is naturally non-GMO, free of trans fatty acids and is non-allergenic. IMPORTANT! We sell our products by weight, not by volume! That is, different kind of oils might have different volume while the same bottle size and weight as they have different viscosity.

Q: How do I make my solid coconut oil into liquid? The easiest way to do this if you only want a small amount is to put it in a bowl and put the bowl in a “warm bath”. (put the coconut oil bowl in another bowl that is filled with warm water). How to choose between refined and unrefined coconut oil? Skincare As a beauty product, unrefined coconut oil is the preferred type to use. The lack of processing means the oil retains all of what nature intended, but both refined and unrefined oils have the same moisturizing power so, if you don’t like the smell of unrefined coconut oil, it’s perfectly fine to opt for the refined one. Cooking & Baking Both oils are excellent for cooking & baking, so which one you choose really depends on what type of dish you’re doing. A subtle coconut taste can either complement or clash with the other flavors in a dish—something to keep in mind since unrefined coconut oil will impart some of its flavors to your meal. If you’re looking for neutral cooking oil, refined coconut oil is your best bet. It’s also a better choice for high heat cooking, due to its higher smoke point. Cold Pressing It is a chemical-free process that involves placing the nuts or seeds in a horizontal press that has an 'expeller,' which is a rotating screw. The screw drives the nuts and seeds through a barrel-shaped hollow and compresses them until the high pressure squeezes out the oil, which seeps out through the opening, while the ‘meal,’ or the debris, remains inside the barrel. The oil is then filtered, resulting in the finished product. Due to the absence of solvent residues in Cold Pressing, the outcome is cleaner, purer oils that are higher in natural colors and scents. Benefits & Uses Hydrates The Skin Coconut oil is made up of medium chain fatty acids which help to decrease dryness and allow your skin to retain moisture. Coconut oil provides a protective barrier, helping shield skin from dirt and other icky stuff you’re faced with everyday. Smooths Skin & Minimizes The Look Of Fine Lines And Wrinkles Rub some coconut oil onto your skin and you’ll immediately feel its soft, smoothing effect. And over time it can actually help to better the texture. Coconut oil can actually help to diminish the signs of aging when used regularly. It soaks into skin and makes those little lines and wrinkles appear far less obvious. Use Coconut Oil When Swimming Using coconut oil on your hair before taking a dip in the pool or beach is a natural way to protect your hair from chlorine and saltwater. Coat hair with the oil and comb through to distribute evenly. Gives You Baby-Soft Lips Mix a little coconut oil with some Shea butter and apply to your lips. You will find chapped lips disappear, and you get soft lips that will be the cynosure of all eyes.
