Since coconut oil is moisturizing, antimicrobial (a substance that kills or inhibits the growth of microorganisms) antifungal and anti-inflammatory, it's a great natural remedy for a number of skin problems including acne, eczema and diaper rash! One of the best natural products you can use on your skin to help healing and restoring skin is coconut oil. Also makes an excellent massage oil.
