Olive Oil Benefits + 4 Clean Beauty Products Featuring Olive Oil
The health properties of Olive Oil
An ancient Mediterranean oil, Olive oil is popular worldwide for the very many benefits associated with it. Rich in Omega 3 fatty acids, polyphenols, and vitamin E, olive oil has the perfect composition to ensure healthy skin and hair.
Olive Oil for your skin
Olive oil is a great skin cleanser. It extracts toxic oil from deep within the pores of your skin. It also works to dissolve dead skin cells and deep cleanses dirt, grime, and germs from skin pores. This also helps clear our acne, blackheads, and whiteheads since these very contaminants cause the aforementioned skin conditions. It also works as an all-natural makeup remover, quickly and easily dissolving even the most stubborn makeup without drying out your skin.
Olive oil contains essential fatty acids that make it a powerful moisturizer especially for dry and damaged skin. It lubricates and softens rough skin by plumping up dry skin cells with moisture ensuring smooth and supple skin. It is also deeply hydrating for cracked heels and damaged feet. Olive oil is an emollient which provides a soothing effect to rough feet and helps soften them. It even works wonderfully on skin conditions like eczema and atopic dermatitis.
Olive oil also contains antioxidants that neutralize the free radicals that cause skin damage. It improves the elasticity and regenerative properties of skin. It encourages new cell production and protects against environmental factors that cause skin damage. All this helps in reducing the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and pigmentation resulting in healthier, brighter, softer, and plumper skin. These properties also make it useful in reducing scars and to rejuvenate the delicate skin around the eyes.
Olive Oil for your hair
Olive oil is just as useful for hair and scalp health. Its high vitamin E content helps fight hair loss. It also stimulates hair growth and deeply conditions the hair shaft, coating and protecting it from damage. This results in reduces frizz and shiny, bouncy hair. Its antibacterial properties also help fight against scalp irritation, dryness, and dandruff while also deep cleansing resulting in a healthier and cleaner scalp.
Olive oil has many other uses and benefits including improving nail and cuticle health, as a natural shaving cream, exfoliator, and improving lash health. A wonderfully dense and nutrient rich oil, it is the perfect ingredient across an array of beauty products.
