Hair and scalp:

Olive oil is a great choice for dry and damaged hair.It helps to condition hair and get rid of the frizz. It helps repair split ends and makes your hair soft and shiny. Put a small drop into your palm and massage onto scalp and hair. Cover hair with a plastic bathing cap and leave on for 30 minutes or more then shampoo as usual. Use this treatment 2 -3 times a month for healthy and shiny hair.


Face:

If your skin seems extra dry, simply massage a small amount of olive oil into your face and neck, using the same circular motions.


Eyes:

Olive oil makes a great eye makeup remover. Just pour a small amount on a cotton ball and wipe off stubborn eye makeup and mascara, just be careful to avoid getting into the eyes.


Lips:

Dab a little olive oil on lips to soothe dry, chapped lips.


Skin:

Massage a small amount of olive oil into skin whenever you need softening and moisturizing. Apply extra oil to rough or cracked areas like elbows, knees and cracked heels.
