Can I coconut oil as a eyelid moisturizer?

I'd think its too oily, but maybe if you use a really small amount it should be fine :) just try it out and see if it gets too greasy on your skin after a while.

I would recommend just using an eye cream they're specifically made for the eye area, you can't go wrong. With coconut oil, let alone any oil I wouldn't be putting near my eyes.

Coconut oil won't keep your eye skin hydrated for long you should use a cream formulated for your eye area but it won't hurt your eyes I use it all over.

Coconut oil is naturally antibacterial so it's great for sealing moisture in lashes and removing eye make up, but as Traci stated, you're not going to get the hydration you're looking for when it comes to your lids. A moisturizer that specifically states it is for the eye area is best for maximum results.
