Forestwise Cold Pressed Virgin Coconut Oil

Virgin Coconut Oil is used as an emollient and moisturizer and is processed using a well established artisanal method. These coconuts from the Coco Nucifera species are harvested directly from the tree before they have time to age and drop like the more mature white and brown husked coconuts. This leads to a truly incredible fragrant coconut odor that captures the imagination of formulators.
