Coconut oil has long been considered one of the go-to natural beauty products.

[REVIEW] Coconut-free Clear Skin Days Mattifying Barrier Moisturiser
Full disclosure: I used this coconut-free moisturizer as a facial cleanser for a week. This choice was not on purpose as if I had the intention of discovering a new lifehack. Rather, that week I happened to have a bunch of new skin care products that I wanted to test, cleansers included, and I just grabbed the first bottle nearby and used it to wash my face. Somehow I completely ignored the label that said “moisturiser” (UK spelling) and repeatedly washed my face with it. Did it work? Yes. Really, really well. After realizing my error, I began using Clear Skin Days Mattifying Barrier Moisturiser as the manufacturer intended. Did…
Hydrate Your Skin With This Coconut-free Moisturizer
What is your favorite step in your skin care routine? For me, it has got to be the moisturizer step. It is when I feel that I am doing the most good for my skin, like I’m giving it a refreshing glass of water. After all, moisturizing your skin is a necessary restorative step after all it has gone through because of you that day: being exposed to the elements, being covered in makeup, and then being scrubbed clean. Unfortunately, many don’t look forward to using moisturizer because they have a coconut allergy and it’s very hard to find products that aren’t made with coconut in one form or another.…

All of Lush’s Coconut-free Facial Cleansers
Who or what is this Lush that makes coconut-free cleansers? Founded in the United Kingdom 25 years ago, Lush is a cosmetics company that produces quality vegetarian products. As a brand, Lush tries to use as many natural ingredients as possible and the majority of their products are vegan. Lush pays attention to details. Take for example their packaging – if there is any. They sell many of their products without packaging so that your money is paying for the product itself instead of paying for materials you’ll end up throwing away once you get home. When they are obligated to use packaging, it’s recyclable or compostable. Why is Lush…
Wake Up Your Face With UpCircle Beauty’s Coconut-free and Palm-free Coffee Oil Serum
Do you love coffee, sustainability, and bright skin? You will be happy to know that UpCircle Beauty’s Face Serum with Coffee Oil ticks all those boxes and is coconut-free and palm-free. Why do we care if it’s coconut-free? Whether you have ever noticed it or not, coconut is a widely popular ingredient in skin care because it’s so beneficial for skin. Often it is hidden in the ingredients list, which can be very unfortunate for those of us with a coconut allergy. It drastically limits the products that we can use on our face. That’s why Sensitive Skin Oasis is seeking out coconut-free products. In looking at UpCircle Beauty’s catalog,…
