16 Things Dermatologists Want You To Know About Your Skin

16. Coconut is not an all-in-one solution.

The effectiveness of coconut oil for conditioning has been known for years. However, is it an all-in-one solution? Sadly, no, especially in the demanding world, full of pollution, hectic lifestyles, and above all, improper nutrition. Saturated fatty acids of coconut oil come with superb hydrating and nourishing properties. However, they fail to deliver when the skin demands a remedy for wrinkles and spots. You need proper treatment to overcome signs of aging. Skin needs are more demanding these days because of the world around you. Moreover, slathering coconut oil on the face and body is not ideal if you are an outdoor person battling with the sun. In that case – coconut oil cannot replace a sunscreen lotion.
