The scientific name of Coconut Oil is Cocos nucifera, derived from the coconut fruit, which is native to tropical regions around the world. The term "Cocos" is derived from the Portuguese and Spanish word for 'grinning face,' as the three small holes on the coconut shell resemble a human face. "Nucifera" is a Latin word meaning 'nut-bearing', which accurately describes the coconut fruit as containing a large nut-like seed within it.
Coconut oil is a versatile ingredient used for centuries in skincare products, cooking, and medicinal purposes. It is extracted from the kernels of coconuts and is rich in fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants. Coconut oil is known for its moisturising properties and ability to nourish the skin, making it a popular choice in the beauty industry.
