Let’s concentrate now on Coconut Oil Uses Around the Home 57. homemade soap for laundry Coconut oil is a super cleansing addition to homemade laundry soap that produces big, copious bubbles. It can be drying when used alone, but when combined with other ingredients, it’s the ideal oil for soap meant for general cleaning or for laundry. You’ll need to combine coconut oil with distilled water, sodium hydroxide and your essential oil of choice for fragrance. 58. Hydrates dry hands Coconut oil can work wonders on dry, itchy skin. It’s a good idea to keep a jar of organic extra virgin coconut oil by the kitchen sink and put a little on after washing your hands to keep them soft and moist if you have a particularly hard-to-shake dry skin problem. And if you cook with coconut oil, you can scoop out a little extra for your hands while you’re at it. 59. Cleaning makeup brushes Cleaning your makeup brushes should be a monthly ritual. If you’re looking for natural alternatives for commercial cleaners, you can use a DIY cleanser that's two parts antibacterial soap and one-part coconut oil. The oil will protect and nourish the bristles while still getting out the grime. Follow up with a quick rinse with baby shampoo and water for the best cleaning effect. 60. As a natural lubricant Pure 100 percent coconut oil makes a great natural lubricant, since it’s super slippery. It’s very rare for people to have any type of allergic reaction to it, either, so it’s safe to use for the majority of people. 61. For treating dog’s paws If your dog loves hiking and other outdoor activities, his paws can become cracked and raw from all the stress. Rub a little coconut oil on your dog’s paws—it’ll function as both an antiseptic and moisturizer to help him heal. While topically applying coconut oil should be safe on most dogs, check in with your vet before you give it a try, especially if your pup has a health condition. 62. Get rid of sticky label residue If you’re dealing with the after stickiness that is left over after peeling away a label, just apply a bit of coconut oil to the sticky area and let it sit for five minutes or so. Wipe it off with a cloth or paper towel and enjoy a sticky-free surface all over. 63. In homemade natural bug repellent Research has found that coconut oil compounds can repel biting flies and bed bugs for two weeks, while against ticks their repellence was effective for at least one week. Topical application of high concentration of coconut oil can also repel mosquitoes and prevent potentially fatal mosquito bites. Use it to make your own homemade natural bug repellent if you’re prone to bug bites. 64. To soften and condition real leather Coconut oil is one of the oils you can use for conditioning leather. Before you apply the coconut oil, make sure that the leather surface is clean and dry, then rub the oil evenly onto the leather surface and leave it to absorb in a cool and dry place. Wooden chairs and tables can be polished to like-new status the same way as leather goods. Wipe the wood with a damp cloth, then rub some coconut oil on the wood with a clean cloth in a circular motion. Let the wood absorb the oil for about 15 minutes, then wipe it away with a clean cloth. 66. Scrub away soap scum A simple way to keep your shower and bathtub sparkling is to use an all-natural baking soda and coconut oil solution. Mix a couple of tablespoons of coconut oil with baking soda to form a paste, then wipe it across any mildew or soap scum spots. Leave it to do its magic, then wipe away after 10 to 15 minutes. 67. Make homemade play dough If the kids are bored, whip up a batch of homemade play dough to start crafting. Just melt 1 tablespoon coconut oil over low heat, then add half a cup of salt, 1 cup of flour, 1 cup of water, 2 teaspoons of cream of tartar, and a little gel food colouring of your choice. Stir until mixture forms a ball, then remove from the heat and leave to cool before using. 68. Silence squeaky hinges There’s nothing quite as annoying as a noisy door hinge. Conveniently, if you don’t have any commercial oil lying around, you can easily silence that squeak with a teaspoon or two of coconut oil. Open and close the door after dabbing oil on the squeaky hinge to work it through your hardware and find peace in your squeak-free home. 69. Make homemade candles Coconut oil makes a great natural carrier oil for homemade candles, enhancing the scent of whichever essential oil you choose. Just measure a ratio of 3 parts soy wax chips and 1-part coconut oil into a glass jar on low heat. Add your favourite essential oils for a wallet-friendly DIY candle solution. Four cups of melted wax should be enough to yield approximately two small jar candles.
