Coconut Water Benefits for Skin
Coconut
Water Benefits for Skin
Coconut is well-known for
its health benefits and healing properties. Coconut is this one gift of nature
that can benefit you by both internal and external application. In fact,
consumption / application of coconut water can save you from various health
related troubles. How? This is discussed as follows.
Do you know that the
Hawaiians refer to coconut water as noelani, which means 'dews from the
heavens'... and indeed, as you learn more about the benefits of coconut water,
you will truly understand why they say so! The coconut has many religious
aspects to it, especially in India. Sri Sathya Sai Baba, also quoted that
"There is sweet water inside a tender coconut. Who poured the water inside
the coconut? Was it the work of any man? No. Only the Divine can do such a
thing." You would be surprised to know that in India, whenever a new
endeavor takes place, a coconut is smashed to the ground so that its water
leaks out. This is considered as a sign of success. Anyway, enough about the
religious aspect. Coconut is a pool of natural blessings in itself. Not only
its water, the oil, the milk, and even the meat of coconut is useful for
various purposes. However, in this article we shall focus on the benefits of
coconut water for your skin. This Buzzle article will tell you as to how you
can rejuvenate your skin just using this naturally gifted solution which
consists of the 'miracles of nature'.
Benefits
of Coconut Water for Skin
They say beauty lies in the
eyes of the beholder... however, when it comes to 'beholding' someone, your
outer body is the one that helps form an opinion about you! Take your skin for
example. A person with fresh, glowing, and flawless skin will always seem more
healthy and beautiful than a person who is dealing with various skin issues. As
a matter of fact, your face can also speak a lot about your inner health. For
example, a pale and dull face may indicate low hemoglobin, or a dry skin may
indicate dehydration! There are many skin issues like acne, pimples, dry skin,
dark spots, that can lower your self-confidence in terms of appearance and
looks. If you are tired of trying out those expensive cosmetics and medicines
but still can't find a satisfactory solution to your skin problems, then relax
and just go through the benefits of coconut water mentioned below.
Skin
Hydration
Tired of the dull and dry
skin? Looking for some natural glow and shine on your skin? If the answer to
these questions is a definite yes, then all you need to do is apply some tender
coconut water directly on your face. The coconut water has natural properties
to hydrate your skin and give you the natural glow and smoothness that you
always wanted. So stop spending on all those chemical based cosmetics and let
nature take care of it all!
Boosts
Oxygen Circulation
Do you know that half of the
skin problems that you suffer from are because of the impurities that are
deposited in your skin cells? This happens due to poor circulation of oxygen in
the body. Each and every cell in the body needs an adequate amount of oxygen,
which is possible only through proper blood circulation in the body as it is
the blood that carries oxygen throughout the body. Coconut water is very
effective in boosting proper circulation in the body, thereby allowing your
skin to breathe a lot of healthy oxygen which in turn promotes a healthy and
flawless skin.
Anti-aging
Properties
Have you ever been to places
where the main ingredient in food and drinks is coconut and coconut only? Well,
if you ever get a chance to visit the Southern region of India, then you will
find that these people consider coconut to be the ultimate source of health. I
remember I once visited a small village in Kerala, South India, and met this
lady who seemed to be around 35 years old. I was surprised to find out that she
was actually 55 or more, and was a grandma of 3! This was the case with all the
population, everyone seemed way younger than their real age. Could it be
because of coconut water? Well, yes! Coconut water contains cytokinins, which
is known for regulating the aging process of a person. It keeps your skin
fresh, healthy, and prevents the sagging.
Natural
Scar Eraser
I am sure most of us have
this one scar on our body that we desperately want to get rid of! I mean, I
have a horrible burn mark on my calf which makes me conscious when it comes to
wearing shorts and skirts. But then, when I started applying coconut water on
the mark I was surprised to see that within a month it faded away to a great
extent! All you need to do is wash the scars, or acne marks too for that matter
with coconut water at least three to four times daily. Also, do not wipe the
excess water, let it dry naturally. Try this simple method and see guaranteed
results!
Bye-Bye
Sun Tan
I am a piscean who loves
water. In fact, I can swim and spend an entire sunny day in the pool with my
lime water. However, when I think of getting rid of the horrible sun tan
afterward, I prefer skipping the plan at times. I mean one can always use a
sunblock or sunscreen to prevent tanning, but then I remember reading that
using sunblock can actually prevent the formation of vitamin D in the body,
which by far is one of the most important vitamins that the body requires. So
now, I know a better way to get rid of the sun tan, and allow vitamin D
production as well! All you need to do is to apply a pack of coconut water
mixed with Fuller's earth. Scrub it well and say bye-bye to sun tan!
Prevents
Skin Infections
Another skin problem that
most of us suffer from is skin infection, especially during the moist weathers
like the monsoons. Coconut water has many healing, anti-viral, anti-microbial,
and anti fungal properties which can keep the skin safe from infections. You
can either apply it directly on skin, like a moisturizer, or you can mix it
with your bath water. So now when the weather acts funny, just don't worry
about skin infections.
No
More Oily Skin
We have already discussed
the benefits of coconut water for dry skin, but not only that, coconut water
can actually prove to be a blessing for oily skin as well! It helps in washing
away the excess oil of the skin and tones and cleanses the oily skin making it
more even, smooth, and healthy. Now your skin won't shine because of the excess
oil, it is the natural glow that will attract others towards you.
Coconut water is known as
the 'fluid for life'. In Sanskrit, which is an ancient Indian language, the
coconut tree is known as 'Kalpa Vriksha', which means 'tree which provides all
that is necessary for a healthy living'. Coconut water is also known for its
overall health oriented properties. It helps in controlling diabetes, obesity,
and acid reflux diseases. Coconut water is known for increasing the metabolism
of a person, which eventually helps in weight loss. I hope you will now try
this immensely blessed gift of nature for all your skin problems and let go of
all the products that you have been spending on in vain. Believe me, natural
remedies are healthier and more effective in the long term as compared to
chemical based products... and coconut water is definitely worth a try! So try
it and stay naturally gorgeous!
