Olive oil is great for cooking because it has a lot og healthy fats and provides other benefits such as lowering blood pressure & cholesterol, improving the immune system and prevent stroke just to name a few (when taken in moderation). For centuries, olive oil has been used as a beauty product as it is full of anti-aging benefits and anti-oxidants that are great for your skin, hair and nails

Here are 10 ways olive oil can take your beauty routine to the next level.

## 1. Lip Scrub

Combine 1 tablespoon olive oil with coarse sugar. Add a few drops of lemon juice and rub on lips then rinse off. Enjoy sweet, soft and plump lips.

## 2. Hair Treatment

Heat 5 tablespoons of olive oil using the microwave or over hot water. Apply the warm oil to your scalp and hair tips. Leave for 10-20 minutes before shampooing your hair. Enjoy luscious shiny and healthy hair.

## 3. Makeup Remover

Olive oil is great removing all kinds of makeup (water-based & oil-based) making it a great pre-cleansing step. Rub a small amount of olive oil into your face then wash gently with a pH balanced cleanser suitable for your skin type.

## 4. Lighten Stretch Marks

Olive oil can promote skin renewal and improve skin elasticity. Massage olive oil in the affected area at least three times a week to lighten the appearance of stretch marks.

## 5. Hair Serum

Add a delicious shine to your hair with olive oil. Just rub and spread a few drops of olive oil into your hair after styling for a glossy finish.

## 6. Fine Hair Remover

Who needs shaving cream when you have olive oil. Before shaving, apply a thin layer of olive oil then wash with gentle soap.

## 7. Anti-Bacteria Balm

For an anti-bacterial and moisturising balm, mix olive oil with calendula, lavender and tea tree oil then apply.

## 8. Cuticle Moisturiser

For stronger nails and healthier cuticles rub a drop of olive oil into your nail bed and cuticles.

## 9. Dry Skin Treatment

Olive oil is an excellent moisturiser, especially for dry skin. Every night, massage a little olive oil into your face and leave for 10 minutes. Then wash off with a cleanser.

## 10. Cracked Heels

Massage olive oil into your feet for 20 minutes, then wash your feet with water. Wear socks overnight and feel the difference.
