It is a light carrier oil that is easily absorbed by the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also has a relatively long shelf life as it has a higher saturated fat content. Coconut oil contains high amounts of capric and caprylic fatty acids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen coconut carrier oil is used in cold process soap making, it contributes to hardening the final soap bar. It can also help increase the cleansing and bubbling effect of the soap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFractionated oil is not the same as virgin coconut oil. The first difference between these two oils is the smell. Solid coconut oil has a natural coconut scent that has not been removed, whereas fractionated coconut oil is unscented. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRegular coconut oil is also a solid oil, whereas fractionated coconut carrier oil is always liquid. Virgin coconut oil is less processed than fractionated coconut oil, it is pressed straight from the flesh of fresh coconuts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow is it Made?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRegular coconut oil contains a mixture of both long-chain fatty acids and medium-chain triglycerides. To get fractionated coconut oil, the solid form needs to be fractionated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo do this, the solid oil is heated and then cooled at a specific rate so that the long-chain fatty acids solidify first and separate from the medium-chain fatty acids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the fatty acids have been filtered out and refined, we are left with a clear, stable oil that doesn’t solidify in cool weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCoconut oil for skin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFractionated coconut oil is a carrier oil that used in liquid cosmetics as it is hydrating and remains liquid. It is often used in products like moisturisers, lotions, massage oils and creams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur coconut oil has a comedogenic rating of 2 - 3. This means it may clog pores due to its high fatty acid content and is ideal for combination and dry skin types. However, fractionated oil has a lower comedogenic rating than solid coconut oils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to make your own body oil with fractionated coconut oil\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFractionated coconut oil 220g | 244ml | 53%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.thesoapery.co.uk\/products\/hazelnut-oil-for-skin-face-treatments\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eHazelnut oil\u003c\/a\u003e 85g | 94ml | 20%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.thesoapery.co.uk\/products\/rosehip-oil-pure-for-face-skin-acne-scars\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRosehip oil\u003c\/a\u003e 85g | 91ml | 20%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.thesoapery.co.uk\/products\/vitamin-e-oil\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eVitamin E oil\u003c\/a\u003e 18g | 18ml | 4%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.thesoapery.co.uk\/collections\/essential-oils\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eEssential oils\u003c\/a\u003e (optional)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMethod:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeigh the coconut, hazelnut oil, rosehip and vitamin e oils.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMix all of the oils together in a bowl and add your favourite essential oils if needed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnce fully combined, pour the body oil into a bottle ready for use!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCoconut oil for hair\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"\u003eCoconut oil is used in hair care products like conditioner and hair treatments to hydrate and nourish hair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has great moisturising properties and leaves hair smooth and hydrated.
