Botanical Name: Cocos nucifera Botanical Family: Arecaceae
Method: Distillation / Fractionation (The long-chain fatty acids are removed, leaving only the medium-chain triglycerides).
Texture/Absorption: Very thin, light, and "silky" to the touch. It absorbs almost instantly, leaving no greasy residue.
Color: Completely clear and colorless.
Unlike raw virgin coconut oil, which is solid and smells strongly of coconut, Fractionated Coconut oil is a liquid that has been deodorized. It is prized by practitioners because it is "completely stable"—it will not go rancid or change the aroma of the essential oils you add to it. Note, its excellence as a "clean" carrier that won't stain clothing or sheets.
Primarily composed of Caprylic (C8) and Capric (C10) fatty acids (Medium Chain Triglycerides). While it loses the Lauric acid found in raw coconut oil during fractionation, it gains a much smaller molecular structure, allowing it to penetrate the skin very efficiently.
Face: Its "non-comedogenic" nature means it won't clog pores, making it one of the few oils safe for oily or combination skin. It acts as a lightweight, breathable protective barrier.
Body: The perfect choice for roller-bottle blends or "dry" body oils. It provides a smooth "glide" for massage without the sticky after-feel of heavier nut oils.
Hair: A fantastic light conditioner that helps to tame frizz and add shine without making the hair look limp or oily.
Essential Oil Roller Base: Fill a 10ml roller bottle with Fractionated Coconut oil and add 5–10 drops of your favorite essential oil for a portable, mess-free remedy.
Natural Makeup Remover: It is incredibly effective at breaking down stubborn eye makeup and leaves the delicate eye area hydrated rather than oily.
This is the ultimate neutral base. Because it is odorless and colorless, it is the preferred carrier for creating natural perfumes and therapeutic blends where you want the essential oil’s scent and color to remain pure and unchanged.
Safety: Generally considered one of the safest carrier oils for sensitive skin. However, those with a specific coconut allergy should avoid it. It is much less likely to cause breakouts than virgin coconut oil.
Storage: Virtually "immortal." It is extremely resistant to oxidation and does not require a cool environment. Shelf life is typically 2–5 years or more.
