It’s because of their numerous health benefits that aloe vera and coconut oil are commonly used in commercial body care products. Although they provide great benefits when used separately, they are even more useful when combined together.

The best mixture is made when you combine the gel of aloe vera, not the juice, and pure, unrefine coconut oil. Typically, water and oil don’t blend well, which is why it’s not recommende to use the juice of this succulent plant.
