About Olive Oil
Olive Oil and Your Skin

The
beautiful Italian actress Sophia Loren has been
touting the benefits of olive oil as a skin
treatment for decades. We're beginning to
listen. Olive oil softens and smooths skin and
has the ability to lock in moisture. It
stimulates collagen and elastin. It is the
perfect skin care for reducing
wrinkles around eyes, or as a night-time
moisture treatment. Use to keep cuticles moist
or as a treatment to soften dry-chapped hands.
It is also a wonderful lip softener. Try
rubbing a little sea salt mixed with extra
virgin olive oil to exfoliate and moisten dry
lips. Ah love
carries wonderful skin care products produced
using high quantities of olive oil. You can also
make your own moisturizers and skin treatments.
