Olive Oil and Skincare
For centuries, Mediterranean women have
been using olive oil on their skin to keep it soft and supple.
Rich in antioxidants and vitamins, olive oil is an excellent moisturizer,
and may be a helpful addition to your skincare regimen.
When applied to the skin olive oil forms a moisture barrier and
helps soften the skin while keeping irritants at bay. What sets
it apart from other types of oil is that it allows skin to breathe
and doesn't clog pores.
Research suggests that olive oil's antioxidants and vitamins help
ward off free radical damage and lessen the appearance of aging.
Olive oil contains polyphenols, natural occurring plant molecules
which are potent antioxidants with strong anti-inflammatory properties.
Polyphenols have been shown in some studies to be effective in improving
skin's health, making it smoother and younger looking.
