Coconut Oil

Coconut oil has a wide range of benefits when it comes to your skin. It is packed with antioxidants and vitamins E and K that repair your skin and promote the growth of healthy skin tissues. 

The anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties of coconut oil can prevent the surfacing of new acne lesions. However, some people may develop more whiteheads, as it may clog your pores. It is best to test a small area of skin first to determine how your skin reacts.
