I've heard about all the lovely coconut oil reviews so I decided to try some things out.
First I tried a body scrub with coconut oil and sugar. It was absolutely lovely and smelled good...but then about 30 minutes out of the shower I smelled DISGUSTING, like I had rubbed trash and dead fish all over me.
So I got a different jar, different brand and tried it as a moisturizer on my face. Same thing.
I got ANOTHER jar, another brand, and tried it as a hair mask. I had to wash my hair 4 times times to get the smell out, and even then it was a few days until the smell really left for good.
It's all been extra virgin and organic...which I thought was supposed to be good? I'm afraid it's something I'm doing, I just can't figure out what!!

Are you sure it wasnt something else you were maybe using at the time?

It might have been, but I can't pinpoint anything that I was using all three times. I suppose I'll just have to try again and use absolutely nothing but the oil!
