Organic Fractionated Coconut Oil

Organic Fractionated Coconut Oil Australia – Light, Versatile Carrier Oil

Pure Vivid’s Organic Fractionated Coconut Oil (FCO) is a premium carrier oil produced by removing the long-chain fatty acids from certified organic coconut oil, leaving behind a lightweight, odourless, and permanently liquid oil with an indefinite shelf life. Unlike regular coconut oil, fractionated coconut oil never solidifies, doesn’t go rancid, and leaves virtually no residue on skin — making it the most popular all-purpose carrier oil for aromatherapy, massage, and skincare.

Benefits of Organic Fractionated Coconut Oil

• Stays Liquid Year-Round – Unlike regular coconut oil that solidifies in cooler temperatures, FCO remains a clear liquid at all times for consistent, mess-free use.
• Indefinite Shelf Life – The removal of long-chain fatty acids eliminates the components that go rancid, giving fractionated coconut oil an exceptionally long shelf life.
• Virtually Odourless – With almost no detectable scent, it’s the ideal carrier for essential oil blends, allowing fragrance to come through without interference.
• Lightweight & Fast-Absorbing – Leaves a silky, non-greasy finish on skin, making it perfect as a daily body moisturiser, massage oil, or hair serum.
• Non-Comedogenic – Suitable for all skin types including oily and acne-prone skin. Won’t clog pores.
• Excellent Carrier for Essential Oils – The gold-standard choice among aromatherapists for diluting essential oils. Try blending with our Organic Eucalyptus Essential Oil for a soothing massage blend.

How to Use Fractionated Coconut Oil

As a carrier oil for essential oils: Add 10–12 drops of essential oil per 30ml of FCO for a 2% dilution safe for regular skin application. As a body oil: Apply to damp skin after showering for lasting softness. Blends beautifully with our Organic Avocado Oil (80% FCO + 20% avocado) for a richer body blend. As a hair serum: Apply 3–5 drops to dry ends for frizz control and shine. As a makeup remover: Apply to a cotton pad and gently sweep across the face to dissolve makeup.

Available Sizes

Available in 250ml, 1000ml, 5 litres, and 20 litres — perfect from personal use through to professional massage therapists, spa businesses, and cosmetic manufacturers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between fractionated coconut oil and regular coconut oil?

Regular coconut oil contains long-chain fatty acids that cause it to solidify at temperatures below about 24°C and give it a shelf life of 1–2 years. Fractionated coconut oil has these removed, leaving medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) that stay liquid, are odourless, and essentially never go rancid.

Is fractionated coconut oil good for skin?

Yes. FCO is lightweight, non-comedogenic, absorbs quickly, and leaves skin feeling soft without greasiness. It’s one of the most widely used carrier oils in professional skincare and massage for these reasons.

Can I use fractionated coconut oil in my hair?

Yes. It works well as a hair serum on the ends, a scalp treatment when blended with stimulating essential oils, or a pre-wash conditioning treatment. Its light texture means it won’t leave hair feeling heavy or greasy.

Is Pure Vivid Fractionated Coconut Oil certified organic?

Yes. Our FCO is produced from certified organically grown coconuts.

Does fractionated coconut oil expire?

Fractionated coconut oil has an exceptionally long shelf life due to the removal of the fatty acids that cause rancidity. Stored properly, it can last several years, far outlasting most other carrier oils.
