Fractionated Coconut Oil is a refined, lightweight oil derived from coconut oil, prized for its fast-absorbing, non-greasy texture and gentle compatibility with all skin types. At Solstice Skinfood, we use cold-pressed, high-quality Fractionated Coconut Oil to create formulations that glide effortlessly on the skin and enhance the absorption of other actives.

What is Fractionated Coconut Oil?

Fractionated Coconut Oil is made by removing long-chain fatty acids from regular coconut oil, leaving mostly capric and caprylic triglycerides.

This gives it:

Lightweight, non-greasy texture that absorbs quickly
Excellent stability, with a long shelf life
Moisturizing properties without clogging pores
Compatibility with all skin types, including oily and sensitive skin

Unlike solid or unrefined coconut oil, fractionated coconut oil remains liquid at room temperature and is ideal for facial oils, serums, and massage blends.

Key Benefits for Skin

Fast Absorption: Leaves skin soft and smooth immediately
Non-Comedogenic: Safe for oily, combination, or acne-prone skin

Sensory Experience

Fractionated Coconut Oil is silky, smooth, and nearly odorless. It glides effortlessly across the skin, absorbing quickly without leaving a sticky or greasy residue.

It’s ideal for facial oils, body serums, massage oils, or blending with other botanical oils to create lightweight, luxurious skincare formulations.
