Olive oil is great for you, but did you know it also has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory properties that help your skin, too? Since ancient Rome, olive oil has been known for its healing properties for smoother, more radiant skin.”
Additionally, eating it provides antioxidants to fight free radicals and reduce inflammation. Inflammation is a major cause of wrinkles and sagging skin. In addition to incorporating olive oil into your daily diet, apply as a lip gloss and skin soother, as needed. If you have dry skin, it can really help.
