Historical Origin

Coconut oil is the most commonly used carrier oil in the world. Its origin dates back to over a thousand years ago. For centuries, the use of coconut oil has been prevalent in many cultures due to its versatile skincare and health benefits. In its earlier history, it was a staple ingredient in ancient skincare products in India, Philippines, Sri Lanka, and Malaysia.

As coconut oil is replete with nutritional properties that improve overall skin and hair health, it gained immense popularity in other parts of the world. The European traders had introduced the benefits of coconut oil to the west in the 19th century. In the same period, the use of coconut oil also had reached heights in the west.

Simultaneously, coconut tree plantations had become more common in the Caribbean to meet its high demands. Ever since the 19th-century, coconut oil has been valued for its skin and hair care benefits. In recent times, its moisturizing and hydrating abilities have added up to its popularity in the cosmetics industry.

What Is Fractionated Coconut Oil (FCO)?

Coconut oil naturally contains long and medium-chain fatty acids. Long-chain fatty acids in coconut oil are rich in carbon atoms, which make it hard to melt at room temperature. The long-chain fatty acids in coconut oil are to be absorbed and spread over the skin.

Fractionated coconut oil extraction occurs through the steam distillation and hydrolysis process that removes all the long-chain fatty acids from coconut oil. As a result, it contains only the healthy medium-chain fatty acids giving it characteristic of being odorless. Its chemical structure gives it a longer shelf life. It is lightweight, non-greasy, and it absorbs more easily into the skin. Furthermore, it is stable at room temperature.

Benefits of Fractionated Coconut Oil 

Fractionated coconut oil is an important natural oil for glowing skin. Due to its antioxidants and versatile properties, it has extensive skincare benefits. FCO is an excellent moisturizer. This natural oil is rich in hydrating properties that keep your skin moisturized for an extended period of time.

Its hydrating abilities are also helpful in reducing the appearance of wrinkles. The healthy fats in fractionated coconut oil help lock in moisture to your skin, making it softer and smoother. After the removal of long-chain fatty acid, FCO becomes lightweight and leaves no greasy residue on the skin's surface. It can penetrate the skin to soothe irritation and dryness without clogging pores. 

Fractionated coconut oil is known to reduce discoloration on the skin and promotes a brighter complexion. This oil contains potent nutrients that help improve your skin's overall health. FCO is odorless; it blends with essential oils without changing their natural fragrance. It is also one of the most famous massage oils in aromatherapy.
