According to the directions, Chi organic oil can be used on
skin, too. I've used Olive oil on my skin for years. The Chi
product indicates that it's olive nutrient therapy, with a few key ingredients. And it has a two phase approach with, what they refer to as silk oil.

After I bathe in the morning, I rub areas, where cellulite would
like to takeover, with Hydrogen Peroxide and ExtraVirgin Olive Oil. I rub those into the skin real good and get dress. Years ago, I saw a movie star on Good Morning America being interviewed by Diane Sawyer. The boomer age, lady told how she kept her skin smoothe and wrinkle free by using Olive Oil. I've used Olive Oil ever since! And that Chi Oil dancer recommended is helping improve my hair. It isn't nearly as dry as it was.

I just read online, where it's good to use coconut oil to remove
those tiny, lines around the mouth. I'm gonna try it. I'll let
you know how it works!

Yay! Our soaps have coconut oil in them!

Also, just a quick reminder: If an ingredient for a product has water and/or alcohol in it (most commercial products do!), it will dry your skin...no matter what the claims. That is why you have to apply so often. Think of a "prescription drug". The BETTER dose, and not an OTC, works better and is more effective because it's not "watered down", so to speak.

Just a friendly tip!

I knew a woman who would soak her cuticles once a week in hot olive oil. She had the most beautiful fingernails and cuticles.

I've never heard that about coconut oil. Hmm...I wouldn't want to go around smelling like a coconut all day...maybe you could smear it on at night...but having it on my upper lip would just make me hungry for a Almond Joy!

JJ,
There are worse things to smell like than coconut. Right? I'll do and try anything to erase wrinkles. I hate them! Even the
tiniest one, makes me cringe: On myself, of course. I did
go out and buy some coconut yesterday, after reading that
internet site. My gosh. I think it's gonna work! How about that!
Want to know anything, just google it!

One nice thing about smelling like coconut would be the reminder of the beach holidays. Oh yeah...now THAT I could stand. Jab...where did you buy your oil? Just curious. And you say it's working. THAT FAST?

Hey girl. This isn't something new; I've been working on smoothing out this skin, for years. As I told Dotsie I used
olive oil forever. I bought the Coconut Oil at a Natural Food
Store in my hometown. I went to CVS first. They didn't have it.
So I went across the street to this little place where they
have all natural stuff. And there it was. A nice big jar!
Even got 10% off the price. Yes. You know, how you know when
something looks better to you? Well, I used it last night before
bed. And then I used it again this morning. My hands look and
feel better. And my everything, looks and feels better. Fast?
Yes, ma'ameeeee. Fast it 'tis! LOL... You like dark men jj?
