Olive oil is one of the most famous and healthy ingredients used in cooking. However, olive oil has a number of advantages as beauty oil. This oil, unlike many others, is great for your nails, lips, hair, and skin. It penetrates your skin without leaving a greasy layer behind. Olive oil is packed with Vitamins A & E and a number of other elements that already makes it a favorite for cosmetic companies.
I am sharing some easy-to-do, yet very important benefits of olive oil for both men and women:

• Olive oil can be used in place of a shaving cream. The magical oil softens your facial hair and gives you a close and smooth shave. Men with sensitive skin can also use the oil on their beards for a softening effect.
• Olive oil is very advantageous for your hands and nails. Dip your finger nails in warm olive oil to soften the cuticles and strengthen brittle nails. Olive oil can also help smooth chapped or dry hands. Just rub some of the oil onto your hands at night and sleep with cotton gloves on for a magically soft effect.
• Olive oil is also is great makeup remover. By dabbing a small amount of olive oil on a cotton ball or pad, you can remove fancier of makeup (even mascara will come off easily). The olive oil will remove the makeup just as smoothly and easily as any commercial brand.
• Olive oil is a very effective moisturizer as well. Moisturize the dry areas of your body by rubbing olive oil on the dry spots. It can be used on chapped lips, dry feet or anywhere else you want to moisturize. Mix the olive oil with other essential oils (like lavender) for a special soothing bath.
• Olive oil works magic on hair. Rinse and soak your hair with olive oil to help solve problems like brittle hair. For hair thickening, soak your hair in around 1/2 cup of olive oil and wrap a towel around your head for 30 minutes. Use both the hair treatments weekly to monthly to improve the condition.
