Dr Mercola could you please let us know how you use coconut oil on your skin? In other words do you wash your face first, dry it lightly leaving it slighly moist from water and then take a little coc oil? a lot of coc oil? about how much?and then smooth over your entire skin of your face, including eye lids. Then do you leave it on all night, for 5 mins?? Please give us a little more detail. Would it by wise once in a while to use Olive oil??

Thank you so much for all you do,

I was involved with a healthy skin and hair product company and they had this to say about glycerine on the skin.

If the humidity in the air was above 60% the glycerine would extract moisture from that source.

If the humidity was below 60% then the glyceriine would extract the moisture from your skin.

I thought that was interesting.,,and harmfukl to the skin it seems.
