I happened to wind up going shopping with a dear friend last night, and we just so happened to be in a store where they sold raw organic virgin cold pressed coconut oil for cheap. So I grabbed a big jar of it and just used it to massage and pump. Smells so good and makes my skin so silky!!! Plus a small amount goes a looong way, so it'll last forever, and you can use it as a natural heat protectant and shine serum for your hair. I'm going to use it all over my body as well, after I bathe and shower. It absorbs beautifully. I think this is a keeper. I might get some pure cocoa butter to mix with it to make a boobie butter.
Thanks to everyone who made suggestions! Love the feedback on here.

Its very therapeutic to take internally too. I take it when I remember to help keep me regular and I took some last night and I SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT! This usually happens too

I actually put some in my green smoothie! I almost always have a green smoothie at breakfast, and it made it taste soooo yummy and tropical because there's also pineapple in my smoothie. Doing that from now on!
So it's good for digestion and a sleep aide, too? I'm impressed. AND I've read it helps with cleansing out candida.
I'll keep an eye out for pimples, though...

BB, I got acne from massaging with coconut oil only not from eating it. I eat it every day and I LOVE it.

Yep, I knew what you meant! I'm going to keep massaging with it, but if I start getting acne on my chest, I'll stop it. For whatever reason I seem to be lucky there, though. I don't break out too easily on my chest. I've used a few different things there and it just goes "Whatevs lol."
