Olive Oil Skin Care
JUST LIKE OLIVE OIL IS A HEALTHY PART OF YOUR DIET, IT CAN ALSO BE A WORTHY ADDITION TO YOUR SKIN CARE ROUTINE.YOUR SKIN PLAYS AN ESSENTIAL PART IN DETOXIFYING YOUR BODY, SO IT`S IMPORTANT TO KEEP IT AS CLEAN AND HEALTHY AS POSSIBLE.
Olive Oil is compatible with our skin and as a result does not clog pores and helps to maintain our skin’s natural pH balance. It helps to form a barrier which prevents our skin from losing moisture and it also reduces excess sebum production as our skin hydrates, which reduces our natural oil output.
Olive Oil is filled with antioxidants to protect our skin and help to keep the moisture in, which results in our skin being hydrated and moisturised. The antioxidants assist with anti-ageing as they encourage cell turnover to help restore our skin.
Squalene and Oleocanthal are two compounds found in Olive Oil, and are known to have natural anti-inflammatory and anti- oxidant properties, which can prove effective in managing conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, dryness and itching.
To say the humble olive tree is anything but ordinary, is an understatement. With unique and bountiful properties and myriad uses, the olive tree and its oil have been revered for centuries and are still sought after in the world today.
