We also like extra virgin coconut oil. It is the only oil I will cook with (well, sometimes olive...I'm italian). Coconut oil is fantastic in my opinion. I give it to Daisy as she has allergies and also has MVD and IBD. It is great, it's helped to reduce her itchiness and her digestive system improved. She loves it and it really helps to spice up her prescription food.
As for using it as a beauty aid - I use coconut oil on my hair and skin all the time. I dab cotton balls into and pat it under my eyes for dark circles and stuff. I have a coconut oil from Tahiti that I love. We also use it to comb out the dogs if their coats are dry. It is very nice and if you use just a bit, it is not too greasy.
