I'm not sure if this is definitely true, or if the same rule applies to coconut oil.
I use coconut oil all over myself and I also put it in the bath when I bathe!

I feel embarrassed to admit I've not used an oven for 6 weeks-there's something wrong with my partner's (it's recently began tripping the electricity every time it's turned on!) and the temporary accommodation I'm living in I've not done much cooking!
Maybe I should add something fruitful to this thread;
Tea bags applied to a cold sore can make the symptoms pass faster.
Tea tree oil after shaving to help prevent ingrowing hairs and bumps
Chamomile tea with lemon juice can brighten up blonde hair and even slightly lighten it. It's best if you apply the solution as a rinse then sit in the sun-but because we're in Britain, using a hairdryer is a second-best option.
Potato slices are good for puffy eyes and dark circles, cut some to size and place over your (closed!) eyes and lie down for 15-20 minutes (The last part's probably the hardest bit!)The starch in them contains the same enzyme that's used as the 'magic ingredient' in many creams that claim to lighten dark circles..
