Skinny & Co.
From the moment we wild-harvest our coconuts and process them in our facility in Vietnam, to the moment we make all of our products in Indianapolis and ship them to your doorstep, Skinny & Co. ensures unrivaled purity. Skinny & Co. products never use the synthetic ingredients and scents that most companies start with. We hand manufacture, process, and package everything we do.
The Skinny & Co. difference
Did you know there are more than 80,000 industrial chemicals that don’t have to be disclosed when put in your products? That’s crazy!
At Skinny & Co., we believe that our bodies are better off when we choose products that are natural and free from added ingredients. That’s why our business creates products that you know are good for you and your family. Our products are free from hidden toxins and are produced in a sustainable way, and as a result, you will be able to recognize all of our ingredients and feel good about using them.
Our Process
We go to great lengths to secure our supply of wild-harvested coconuts.
Heat and chemicals drastically change the ability of a coconut to heal and protect your body because the heat destroys the nutrients provided by raw coconut. Skinny & Co.’s patented Nutralock System™ keeps the fruit whole and intact while maintaining its natural health properties. We are proud to provide the only chemical-free, additive-free, non-acidic coconut oil in the world.
Health, inside and out
Coconut oil isn’t just for eating; in fact, the amazing properties of coconut oil extend beyond nutrition. Our premium beauty products contain five ingredients or fewer and combine 100 percent pure coconut oil with therapeutic-grade essential oils to create skincare as nature intended. Our beauty products will give you everything you need to moisturize, repair, and protect your skin...naturally.
Our Beginning
A journey into wellness
Skinny & Co.’s founder, Luke Geddie, was raised by a mother dedicated to healthy living. When his younger brother became extremely ill as a teenager, his mother began looking for alternatives to traditional medicine, which ultimately resolved his condition. Because of his own family's journey into wellness, a chemical-free lifestyle became ingrained into Luke’s life.
An adventurous opportunity
Seeking adventure, the two brothers traveled to Southeast Asia in 2012. They made their way across the continent, working as they went — from consulting in Thailand to volunteering at orphanages in southern India. The highlight of their journey was Vietnam. They admired the country's pristine villages and lush jungles, but were especially captivated by the hard working, family-oriented Vietnamese people.
After their trip, Luke chose to remain in Vietnam, working with locals through an import-export company that he founded. Luke was introduced to an innovative way to produce coconut oil without heat, chemicals or solvents. The coconut has always been an extremely versatile and indispensable food for people in the Tropics, as it is rich in vitamins, minerals, electrolytes and valuable lauric acid (also found in mother’s milk).
A Company is Born
On one of his trips home, Luke brought this revolutionary coconut oil to his family and friends who confirmed that this oil was very different from anything else they had ever tried. After adding a little each day to their diets and skin care routines, everyone expressed positive results, such as an increase in energy or improvement in their skin or waistline. Everyone loved its natural taste and moisturizing effect.
Convinced that this coconut oil was special, Luke patented their unique process and, in his family’s living room, launched Skinny & Co. in September 2013. With only ten jars of coconut oil and a big dream of changing the world, Skinny & Co. began advancing a chemical-free movement that offers people the opportunity to take charge of their own health, enabling them to contribute more fully to their families and communities.
A Clear Difference
Skinny Coconut Oil is the only coconut oil on the market that is wild harvested, hand pressed, small batched, never heated, 100 percent pure, 100 percent virgin, and 100 percent chemical- and solvent-free. You can actually smell, feel, taste and see the difference.
At Skinny & Co., we are committed to providing only the highest quality products, with full transparency, so you know exactly what you are getting in each jar. Consisting of five or fewer all-natural, edible ingredients, each of our products is made with our patented process coconut oil to ensure that all of the nutrients of the amazing coconut stay intact. We are confident that Skinny Coconut Oil is as close as you can get to fresh-picked from the tree!
No junk, period.
Chemical-free coconut oil
Skinny Coconut Oil is sustainably sourced, small batch, never heated, and hand crafted. Skinny & Co. products never contain hidden toxins and are produced in an sustainable way. We can honestly say that our products contain no chemicals, no preservatives, no phthalates, no parabens, no sulfates, and no toxins. Our products contain no junk, period.
A clear difference
We say it all the time: the difference is clear. Skinny Coconut Oil requires 50 percent more coconuts to produce, and in its liquid state (above 78 degrees Fahrenheit), it looks like water, completely clear. That is the true sign of purity in coconut oil.
The Truth About "Cold-Pressed" Oils
We at Skinny & Co. have discovered what other coconut oil producers don't want you to know: most “cold-pressed” oils are actually heated up to 120 degrees Fahrenheit and then cold-pressed after the damage is already done.
But don’t worry. Skinny & Co.’s patented Nutralock System™ is changing the coconut oil industry. By using cool, dry air to dehumidify the coconut meat, we eliminate heat and friction from the process. This makes Skinny & Co. the only producer in the world adhering to true raw standards.
Nutralock Means No Heat, Ever
To explain it further: the Nutralock System™ never applies heat. Instead, it uses a low-friction air jack to dehumidify and extract the oil. This patented system takes 3x longer than other processes and uses more than 12 coconuts for each 16 oz jar. The result is a smooth texture and creamy white color with a light fragrance--all signs of absolute purity. As a result, Skinny Coconut Oil has higher levels of the medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) and allows your body to absorb the oil easier, enhancing its effectiveness.
The Nutralock System™ is more than a machine; it’s the entire process. From the award-winning coconuts to our one-of-a-kind process, we are committed to crafting the purest products available.
