Olive Oil for Hair and Skin

olive oil for hair and skin

We are so willing to spend high prices for products who have lured us in with their convincing advertising schemes. All the while the solution to our parched curls and ashen skin can be purchased for $5 bucks or less. Olive oil is  filled with nutrients that provide numerous benefits for our hair and skin. Nourish your hair and skin with Olive Oil’s bountiful Vitamin E and antioxidants.

The ultimate moisturizer for skin

Those who suffer from oily skin can find balance from using olive oil. No longer will you have to walk around with that beaming forehead. When you use olive oil as your moisturizer you are using an all natural SPF that will protect you against the suns harmful rays and a moisturizer that will restore your skins balance. Our cleansers and moisturizers that we use are packed full of chemicals, while you may not be able to completely eliminate your usage of chemical ingredients you can reduce your contact.

Here is an all natural skin cleanser recipe discovered via The Green Beauty by Julie Gabriel

Just Olive Cleanser

You will need:

Vitamin E Oil

Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)

Tea Tree Oil

Mix and shake up all these ingredients together, then place into a pump container to use as your daily cleanser.

This cleanser leaves you with an icy cool feeling on your skin and is absolutely refreshing. Its easy to make and has a relatively good shelf life in a climate controlled environment.

 

The Perfect Daily Moisturizer for Hair

Olive oil can be used for oiling your scalp on a daily basis, moisturizer for your hair, or deep conditioning. Olive is especially helpful if you decide to pre-poo your hair. Shampooing the hair even with the best of shampoos can sometimes leave your hair stripped of moisture. Adding oil to your hair prior, reduces this stripped feeling and makes the shampooing process less harsh on the hair.

While the common hair grease may be clogging to your pores you don’t have to worry about this with Olive Oil. Instead of using a hair product that contains a multitude of unnecessary chemical ingredients you use Olive Oil without all of that nonsense. Olive will last you longer as well as it comes in a relatively large container and the best part is its a multi- purpose product. Cooking, skin care, and hair care product all in one.
