DID YOU KNOW?
Did you know olive oil has been a health and beauty potion for over 4000 years?
It’s common knowledge that olive oil beautifies the body from the inside out, but this “liquid gold” is also nature’s secret for instant beauty enhancement. Always try to use extra virgin olive oil whenever possible since it is the purest form.
Cleopatra would be proud:
~Add a few teaspoons of olive oil to a bottle of conditioner to provide added moisture. Shake bottle well before each use to blend contents.
~Add up to 1/4 cup olive oil with a few drops of lavender essential oils to bath water or foot soak.
~Apply olive oil to dry hair generously and leave in overnight. Shampoo out thoroughly in the morning, hair will be silky and shiny.
~Warm olive oil in microwave and apply to dry, cracked cuticles to heal them naturally.
~Apply olive oil directly to dry patches on face and body; perfect for those who suffer from eczema.

I love this!! In moving over to more expensive and exotic products, it was easy to forget about the wonders of simple olive oil. Thanks for the reminder.
I’m bad about this too, I love using olive oil on my hair, but I keep buying commercial conditioners that don’t work nearly as well. I’m a sucker for pretty packaging!
Thanks Toma. I was really unaware of this beauty tip.
