Coconut oil

When applied to the skin, virgin coconut oil noticeably tames eczema flare-ups, preserves delicate moisture, and supports healthy barrier function while defending against harmful bacteria. It suits dry skin and oily skin best, and it comes in creams, cleansers, and sunscreens. It fits smoothly into a daily routine because it layers easily.
