Enjoy The Benefits of Olive Oil On Your Skin

For a long time, olive oil has been used to care for a number of skin ailments. Olive oil is rich in vital minerals, vitamins and antioxidants that rejuvenate and enrich the skin. Give your skin a pampering and treat it to some olive oil once a week for smooth, healthy skin you'll absolutely love.

We'll go over how exactly to use this natural oil on your skin at the end of this post, but more importantly, why should you use it? Here are a few reasons:

Olive oil maintains skin's youthful complexion and helps to heal skin abrasions.

Since olive oil is an excellent moisturizer, it protects your skin from dry, harsh weather and other harmful elements that do damage to your skin.

Olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids, which have the ability to balance your skin's pH level, for optimum skin health.

Take the following steps to apply olive oil on your skin once every week or so:
Wet your face thoroughly.

Massage olive oil onto your skin. If you'd like an exfoliating effect, take a teaspoon of sugar in the tips of your fingers and rub around your face.

If olive oil drips down the sides of your arms, don't worry! Wipe it up and rub it into your elbows, which might otherwise sometimes get dry.

This is a great routine to add to your bath and body regimen. For more tips on natural living, read more of the Bath Body Terminal(www.bathbodyterminal.com) blog or visit our store for healthy and skin-friendly bath items.
