7 Great Beauty Uses Of Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Olive Oil is considered safe to eat and cook with by most people.

  • High concentration of monounsaturated fats
  • Anti-inflammatory drugs
  • Omega-3 fatty acid
  • Antioxidants
  • Vitamin-rich, it is a natural beauty remedy.

Extra virgin Olive Oil can also be used in a variety of beauty products:

Moisturizer

Olive Oil can be smeared more than a lotion. It doesn't absorb nearly as fast, so if you have extra time Extra Virgin Olive Oil can penetrate deeply to heal cells and soften tissue. Extra Virgin Olive Oil has the same healthy fats found in avocado and can plump your lips and moisturize your skin thanks to its combination of vitamin A and vitamin E.

Use Extra Virgin Olive Oil daily on areas that are dry such as elbows and feet, after showering. Extra Virgin Olive Oil also helps reduce the appearance and severity of acne scarring. A few drops of essential extra virgin olive oil can be added to any scent-loving person.

Shaving Oil

 

Olive Oil lubricants are efficient, effective and inexpensive to shave facial and body hair. Extra Virgin Olive Oil is slightly more sticky, so it's not as smooth. However, it makes it easy to clean up. It also leaves your skin soft and dewy. Add an extra teaspoon to your wash. You won't be sorry!

Body Scrub

 

After applying olive oil to the skin, scrub it with sugar or coarse salt and then rinse. You can also mix 1 part Extra Virgin Olive Oil and 1 part sea salt with a few drops essential oil (lavender highly recommends). You can make an old world paste from this mixture:

  • Good smell
  • Feels good
  • The application fee is very affordable

Softener for Ears

 

Olive Oil can be used alone or combined with water irrigation to remove any wax from your ears. For three to four days, the AAFP recommends that you apply three drops of Olive Oil each day to the affected ear. You should also apply room temperature drops of Olive Oil to your ears using an eye dropper before you go to bed. The oil will penetrate more deeply if you lie on your side.

Hair & Scalp Masque

 

The change in season can cause dry hair and scalp. You can try this: Transfer some Extra virgin Olive Oilsinto plastic bottles and place them in a bowl of warm water. Use a warm oil to massage your hair. You can also wrap it in a towel, or dry it with a dryer for 15-20 minutes. Wash hair with mild shampoo.

Softener for cuticles

 

For extra moisture and protection against snags, you can rub some Extra Virgin Olive Oil on your cuticles. You may also mix oil with water for a Do It Yourself Mani.

Makeup Remover

 

A few drops Extra Virgin Olive Oil on cotton balls or pads can do a lot to remove makeup and other impurities. Make circular movements on your face. Extra caution around your eye: Place the cotton pad on your closed eye for 10 second and then gently wipe.
