Coconut Exfoliant is a natural exfoliant made from coconut shell. Once stripped off its membranous fibers, the coconut shell is crushed to obtain a powder. The grains obtained from their natural hardness, make a great exfoliating capability while preserving the integrity of the skin. These exfoliant particles are ideal for gently exfoliating the skin and stimulating the renewal of the epidermis. These exfoliating particles exhibit good abrasiveness and good stability. Once ground, the particles then pass through a sieve to create exfoliating particles of different grain sizes (from 1000 to 200 µm).
The coconut tree (Cocos nucifera) is a member of the palm tree family (Arecaceae) and the only living species of the genus Cocos. The term "coconut" can refer to the whole coconut palm, the seed, or the fruit, which botanically is a drupe, not a nut.

The name comes from the old Portuguese and Spanish word coco, meaning 'head' or 'skull' after the three indentations on the coconut shell that resemble facial features. They are ubiquitous in coastal tropical regions and are a cultural icon of the tropics.

Coconut is widely used for its gustatory qualities but also for its cosmetic virtues.
