11. Sunburn Relief

Now that summer is approaching you and your family will probably be spending a lot more time outside. As much as us moms try to keep ourselves and our kids lathered up in sunscreen, sometimes someone or some part of their skin slips through the cracks. If any of you gets a little too much sun and ends up with a sunburn, coconut oil works wonders on sunburned skin. It will not only moisturize your skin while it’s healing but it will soothe the burned skin as well.

12. Wood Polish

Need to polish your wood furniture? Instead of using the synthetic chemical products from the grocery store, try using coconut oil! The moisture from the oil will sink into the wood, moisturize it and keep it looking healthy longer. It’ll help keep the wood looking its best and it’s all natural! You don’t have to put any strange chemicals on your furniture anymore.
