The hidden benefits of olive oil that most people don’t know

Olive oil is a very common skin care product nowadays. It can be used for massage or applied to the skin. Most people know that olive oil only has the effect of beautifying the skin and promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. In fact, they don’t know that olive oil can be used in many places, such as using olive oil for lip care, skin care, hair care and so on.

Face protection

After washing your face, use "olive oil + salt" to gently massage your face repeatedly to have a scrubbing and moisturizing effect. Then use a facial steamer or hot towel to apply to your face to remove dirt in the pores that is invisible to the naked eye and increase the skin's radiance and elasticity.

Lip Care

When the weather suddenly turns cold, or when you have a cold or have a bad stomach, people often experience peeling and cracking lips. At this time, just apply a small amount of olive oil, and in two or three days your lips will become smooth again. Nowadays, many ladies use olive oil instead of lip gloss to make their lips shine with natural luster. Of course, the effect is not as long-lasting as lip gloss.

Skin Care

The joints of the hands, feet and buttocks are prone to dryness and wrinkles. Regular use of olive oil can restore the skin's natural elasticity. The skin is drier in autumn and winter, especially on the legs and arms. Olive oil has a moisturizing and maintenance effect. It can be applied three times a week on normally dry skin, and daily on extremely dry days.

Hair Care

General hair care is simple. Just drop three or four drops of olive oil on the comb before combing your hair, and it will not make your hair greasy. In addition, after washing your hair, gently dry your hair like using a conditioner, apply olive oil evenly to your hair, and then wrap your hair with a hot towel for 10 minutes to make your hair shiny and smooth.

Makeup application and removal

This is a rarely mentioned effect. Ladies who use dry powder as foundation usually encounter a problem: they have to rub the powder hard to get it to stick to their face. However, the skin often ages due to vigorous rubbing, and wrinkles appear on the face over time. Olive oil helps with makeup application. Just apply a thin layer on your face and you can put on makeup. It can nourish the skin and prevent makeup from falling off. Generally, people use products such as BB oil to remove makeup, but for those with sensitive skin and sensitive parts of the skin, they often worry about allergies, especially when removing eye makeup, they always have to be very careful. And you don't have to worry if you use pure natural olive oil to remove makeup. When used as a makeup remover, the amount used is even less than when applying makeup. Just apply a small amount with a cotton pad and gently wipe off the makeup on your face to effectively remove oil paint and chemicals.
