Benefits of Using Olive Oil Based Skin Care Products

It is very important to find the correct products for your skin. The first thing to do is to find a cleanser and moisturizer that you know that will work for you and keep them at the core of your routine. Using the correct cleanser for your skin is a great way to get started. After cleaning your skin it is recommended to use a moisturizer everyday after you shower and apply it again before bed. Many experts also push the importance of exfoliating your skin a couple times a week.

After doing lots of research on products that work well for various skin types I have come to see a lot of perks in virgin olive oil. Virgin olive oil helps alleviate acne by helping to exfoliate the skin and clean skin pores. We lose 50 million skin cells a day. By leaving the dead skin on your body you look dull and wore down. Olive Oil reduces stretch marks and has lots of anti-aging properties. Antioxidant protection by having vitamin E, polyphenols, and phytosterols. Vitamin E helps restore skin smoothness and protects against ultraviolet light.
