Coconut oil has a UV filter of 8, so it can be used as a sunscreen a pre-tan unless you’re white. If the skin is very light, it is better to supplement it with special products with a higher level of SPF protection, especially for light-skinned people and albinos.
Regular application of coconut oil before going outside will not only protect the skin from the harmful effects of the sun’s rays, but will also contribute to its hydration and a more even tan.
In order for the result to be more noticeable, some rules should be followed:
- Apply the oil only to cleansed skin.
- Before applying coconut oil, you can take a bath or shower with a soft body scrub
- After the scrub, rinse the skin with cool with water so that the pores narrow and do not accumulate sebaceous secretions.
- Pure coconut oil is applied to the skin, distributing it over the body with massage movements.
