I would highly recommend the pure coconut oil as well! A friend puts it in a spray bottle like you would buy at Dollar General and sprays it on her entire body then rubs it in. I thought that was a wonderful idea, quick and easy and you do not have to keep dipping your fingers in the oil and worry about the possibility of contaminating it. :)
Also, if your friend would like to treat it from the inside out, ingesting 4 tablespoons of coconut oil is absolutely wonderful for your health in every so many ways not just your skin--it is amazing. If she does buy some to eat, make sure it tastes like coconuts--that means it is pure. Another thing she could do is take one tablespoon of cod liver oil every day, I take emulsified orange flavored as I cannot do just the oil itself. I give a teaspoon a day to my little girl, she loves it. :)
I can however just eat the coconut oil by the spoonful, it almost isn't like drinking oil at all (and I have an aversion to oil so this is amazing!) and has a really nice flavor. I am getting ready to order a five gallon pail of virgin coconut oil, and this will be a five month supply at 4 tablespoons a day for my husband and I. This is where I have found to be the best place to buy it in bulk, http://www.wildernessfamilynaturals.com/mall/virgin_coconut_oil.asp but if you are wanting to buy smaller bottles http://www.coconutoil-online.com/ has the Coconut Supreme for cheaper. They actually get the India oil from the same place, I have had the Coconut Supreme and it tastes wonderful. :) www.tropicaltraditions.com also has pure coconut oil, and their site is more informative about the benefits of coconut oil than just about any other I have found. Hope that is helpful. :) Caitlin Lorraine
