What it does
It’s the liquid pressed from the coconut fruit. Products add it to condition skin. It isn’t the same as coconut water or coconut oil.
The EU’s ingredient database lists it as an emollient (gives skin a soft, smooth look) and a humectant (helps hold in moisture).European Commission, CosIng (© European Union, CC BY 4.0) · uses put in plain words by Drop ↗
The evidence, graded
expert consensusUS safety reviewers (2023) judged 10 coconut ingredients safe as used, coconut fruit juice among them; it’s the liquid pressed from the fruit. A leave-on product with 0.098% of it, tested undiluted, didn’t irritate or cause allergy in 107 people. These ingredients are eaten as food, a far larger exposure. A study found a very weak estrogen-like effect of young coconut juice at more than products use; with other data, that eased their concern. Makers should limit pesticides and heavy metals.Akinsulie 2023 · International Journal of Toxicology ↗
