Coconut oil?

[strawberrys]

Right now I'm using Aveeno lotion, I love it but I'd like to go even more simple and natural for my skin care (and I found out that they do animal testing ~sigh). Everything seems to aggravate my dermatitis, even some "natural brand" lotions.

Has anyone ever tried using only coconut oil as a lotion? Is it as heavy/smothering as it seems like it could be? And can you use it on your face?
