Olive Expert

Beautiful on the Outside

Not only is olive oil good for you, it can also be used to make you look better too.

For the softest hands imaginable

Mix one teaspoon of olive oil with half a teaspoon of salt and massage into your hands. The salt exfoliates and the oil softens. You will be amazed at how soft, smooth and blemish free your hands look. Also useful for removing heavy staining, oil etc. Works well on elbows, knees, feet and can be used as an all over scrub prior to bathing (probably best to take a shower unless you fancy sitting in the middle of an oil slick!). For particularly rough skin, substitute sugar for the salt.

For soft, shiny, manageable hair

Massage olive oil into your hair and leave for as long as possible before shampooing. Repeat weekly.

To prevent dandruff

Rub into the hair a mixture of olive oil and Eau de Cologne. Then rinse and shampoo as normal.

For a relaxing massage

Warm some olive oil (place container in hot water for 5 minutes) and add a drop or two of your favourite essential oil.
