Olive oil: a beauty hack from your own kitchen cabinet

Skin

Putting olive oil on your face? This doesn’t seem like a good idea at first. Won’t the fattiness of the olive oil block all your pores? No they won’t. Olive oil does not have a blocking effect on your face, on the contrary, it even makes sure that the skin is properly hydrated. Mix some olive oil with a bit of sugar and you’ve got yourself a natural scrub. We bet your skin will love it!

Lips

Do you have really dry lips? Rub a bit of olive oil on them to make them less dry. Applying a thin layer of olive oil on your lips will give you soft lips again in no time. Mind the sun though! The oil on your lips makes the chance of sunburn really high. Therefore, rub the olive oil on your lips in the evening so that you don’t have to worry about sunburn.
