I also use coconut oil for moisturizing. Just the oil, I've never seen the lotion. It soaks in fast and works really well. Also my cats like to lick it off my hands and legs, so that's fun. It's probably good for them.
Hey! What a surprise! Hostile 17! Can I get you a drink, Hostile 17?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm using coconut oil for everything these days. I bought a huge pot at Costco and am loving it.
I even made my own toothpaste with it and I really like it.

Because books.
I think the trick is using it right out of the shower, or that's what they've always said. I should try it, too. I actually have some almond oil -- maybe I should finish that first and see how well it works.

Happy birthday, shrift!
I use coconut oil for lotion all the time, and it absorbs in right away for me. But my absolute favorite moisturizing product is Bee Magic.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Sara, I love that you have neighbors who rescue you from the roof, but I especially love that they take pictures first.

I've simmered through 3 kettles of water and my kitchen windows aren't even fogging and it is 11 out (they sometimes do when I have a lot of dishes.) Found my penguin humidifier and turned it on in my bedroom, stupid mineral powder dusting bedamned.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I use baby oil, which I slather on last thing in the shower, then turn off the water. It doesn't get me oily and it saves my extremely dry skin.

I used coconut oil, but in the shower. It moisturizers great, but stogs the drains.

Timelies all!
Another quiet weekend here. Maybe I'll go to Barnes and Noble to try to use the gift cards I got for Hannukkah.

Yeah, it becomes a solid below 73 degrees F, so it would clog the drain when it cooled! I stand on a towel or bathmat to put it on.
Doesn't baby oil in the shower make the tub slippery?
