People always ask me, how does my skin look so good ? Especially when I always sleep late at night. Do you know what are being shown in the pictures ? Yes, these are olive fruits ~




Olive oil has been known to be good for you since 500 B.C.. We all know that olive oil reduces cholesterol when you consume it with foods. But did you know that consuming olive oil is also good for your skin ? Olive oil is a monounsaturated fatty acid that contains linolenic, alpha-linolenic, and oleic acid. This helps the body manufacture prostaglandins which moisten the skin and make it smoother and more firm. Olive oil contains antioxidants which fight cell degeneration. Hydroxytyrosol is a very powerful antioxidant found only in olive oil.
Here's how olive oil skin products benefit your skin...
Olive oil softens and smoothens your skin and is great for dry and sensitive skin because it is a fantastic emollient (an agent that softens or soothes the skin).
Olive oil is great for relieving the symptoms of skin diseases like eczema and psoriasis.
Olive oil will not clog your pores because it is non-greasy making it great for people who suffer from Acne.
Olive oil contains squalene and squalane. Squalene is naturally produced by the sebum glands in the skin. The squalene and squalane work together to help prevent the skin's natural oils from oxidizing which could lead to cell deterioration.
Hydroxytyrosol gives olive oil anti-inflammatory properties which research shows is good for healing skin abrasions, rashes and sunburn. The hydroxytyrosol also has antimicrobial properties.
Which brand of the olive skin care do I use ?
