Not only is olive oil packed with health benefits and antioxidants , it is also highly beneficial for your skin. This secret skincare ingredient has been dated back to ancient Egypt - it was even said to be one of Cleopatra's go-to's. This Olive Oil & Honey Face Mask recipe can help you reap the positive effects that EVOO can provide, topically.
Olive oil can be used on its own as a moisturizer, or mixed in with other anti-inflammatory and anti-aging ingredients, such as honey. The antioxidants in olive oil can help to prevent premature ageing, as it enhances cell production. When you combine a hydrating ingredient, like EVOO, with a natural antibacterial ingredient like honey, you have got yourself a moisturizing mask that works wonders on a variety of skin types.
When making this face mask at home, it is important to use high-quality EVOO, as some low-grade oils have been filtered and mixed with other ingredients, which can be harmful to your skin.
Tips:
1. Apply it to your face when you're fresh out of the shower while your pores are open so you can receive ultimate hydration.
2. You can also use EVOO as a daily eye makeup remover. Simply add a few drops to a cotton pad and gently cleanse the area.
