LOL, yes, I am a firm believer of it.

Ugh, maybe I should go back to it. Or maybe I can add a tiny bit of bleach to my natural cleaning solution.

BTW I did get my coconut oil a while ago. I shared some with my DGF as this jar will last me a long time I am sure. She loved it too.

I have since been reading the many uses and values of it here and there on the web.

So far, I have used it on my face as you gals said you did. I have used it as a scrub for my hands with a little sugar. I also massaged some into my scalp for a scalp treatment as the heat here dries my scalp in the winter and it gets itchy.

I have also cooked some chicken cutlets in it and really liked the very subtle taste it imparted. Plus, I read it is supposed to be very good for your digestion.

I have heard it is good for dog's skin too so will give a little to Dunkin next door, he is always scratching, he has some kind of dermatitis the poor thing.

It's Vermont Soaps Liquid Sunshine, diluted according to their rates. It does work great, I'm just seeing mold come back more quickly.

Think I will clean the tub with soft scrub this week and see if it makes a difference. Then I'll think about adding bleach to the other mixture.

I am otherwise happy with it!

Must smell really nice too. I'm looking here for a citrus brand that is supposed to clean the stovetops easily, in concentrate form too.

The vacation house I am managing could use a good scrubbing on the top, but they are sealed burners, don't come off to soak.

It smells great! It's an all-around cleaner and I've used it in the kitchen as well.

You can find the description on their website, I know I can't post a link.

The other thing I've used for the stove is soft scrub with those magic erasure sponges. But I've used the citrus cleaner with the same.

okay, yesterday Meredith Viera was on tv with Hoda in New York and was telling her how she showers every morning and then slathers coconut oil all over her body to keep her skin smooth.

She also cooks with it, and said to add a spoonful to the dogs dish every day for his coat.
