RBD Coconut Oil is commonly used in the soap and cosmetic industries as a cream base or as a raw material for soaps, ointments, massage creams. In the soap making industry, Coconut Oil is an important ingredient because of its resistance to rancidity and helps a hard bar of soap produce fluffier lathers. Other benefit of Coconut Oil is usage in lotions / ointments formulation to treat dry, itchy or sensitive skin. This is attributed to the Coconut Oil texture which is light and non-greasy and can be easily added into balms or stick formulations.
