It looks like the entire label is set up that way; ingredient (purpose). I think that there are rules for how ingredients are listed and this may be why the labels are printed like that, but I don't know. No big deal as long as I'm not consuming the lotion. Coconut does have a natural affect of "drying out" the skin in your mouth. I am just very sensitive to it, and it keeps me from being able to ingest coconut. I have even learned to avoid drinks with coconut oil in them (like some flavors of Powerade) because they just make me feel thirstier.
