I've been using virgin coconut oil as well, almost daily after showers. Seems to work very nicely and keep my skin very soft, although it takes a little while to completely soak in. I've read very good things about it though.

I emulsify extra virgin coconut oil, extra virgin olive oil, and filtered water in a blender and use that for face and for hands. But you could use it anywhere : )
