Extra Virgin Organic Coconut oil is a highly praised natural ingredient cold-pressed extracted from the meat of the coconut, Cocos nucifera. It is semisolid at room temperature with a melting point of 76° F, ranging in color from an opaque white to light yellow appearance. As an unrefined material, extra virgin coconut oil yields its notable characteristic sweet, nutty aroma and flavor profile. Coconut oil is high in saturated fatty acids, especially lauric and myristic acid content, giving rise to this raw material as a preferred cooking oil that is highly resistant to oxidation and remains stable when exposed to heat. Other culinary applications for coconut oil include acting as a vegan-friendly butter or dairy substitution in baking recipes or coffee, or added to formulations for chocolate, salad dressing, or ice cream. Noted as one of the most popular carrier oils for soap and personal-care product development, extra virgin coconut oil can be found on ingredient labels of an endless array of beauty products including shampoo, conditioner, hair masks, makeup remover, lip balms, deodorants, tanning oil, moisturizers, and lotions. Its effective emollient, moisturizing, and hydrating properties are advantageous when creating topical products to treat dry or damaged skin and hair and is often used to treat after-sun exposure.

Virgin is considered the natural/raw material with the characteristic color, flavor, and aroma. Refining removes these properties so the material is a lighter shade than the virgin material and often times clear, off-white, or white with little-to-no scent or flavor.
Refined, bleached (non-chemical process), deodorized. An "RBDW" product goes through a winterization ("W") process in addition to the RBD process.
Deodorized materials go through a non-chemical, high-vacuum process to reduce their natural aroma. While the aroma is not removed fully, a deodorized product’s aroma is less potent than the natural or unrefined variety.
