Olive Oil for Beauty!
It is common knowledge that Olive oil has many health benefits, but did you know that its versatility makes it a perfect ingredient for beauty and skin care products? Naturally, Olive oil contains antioxidants which has anti-aging effects and is excellent at hydrating the skin. The moisturising benefits make it ideal for treating skin, hair and nails in addition to a healthy salad dressing!
Vitamins A and E in olive oil hydrates the skin and helps delay the ageing process by maintaining skin's elasticity and suppleness. Rich in vitamins, minerals and natural fatty acids, Olive oil is also perfect for sensitive skin. The antioxidants prevent the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while it rejuvenates, nourishes, and protects the skin.
Below are my favourite beauty benefits of Olive oil:
- moisturises and helps skin cells to regenerate - ideal for stretch marks
- deep hair treatment for healthy scalp and hair follicles
- great natural eye makeup remover
- cuticle conditioner for your nails
- helps treat skin conditions like nappy rash and eczema
- makes a fab lip scrub - just combine with coarse sugar and scrub away dead skin!
