Who knew olive oil was good for this!

All of us have a bottle of olive oil in our pantry or just on the kitchen counter so it’s within reach. Usually, we use it to prepare our food with, but it turns out you can do much more with it! We’ve picked two tricks for you today that’ll surprise you!

Olive oil has dozens of properties that make it a useful asset in doing housework, but we’ve selected two tips for you that tell you how to use it in your skin care routine. It might sound a little bit weird, but olive oil is one of the best natural skin care products out there, and it’s much cheaper than traditional products as well.

1. Use it as make up remover

Even the most stubborn make up won’t be able to go up against the power of olive oil (apart from permanent make up, of course). Dip some cotton wool or pad in some olive oil and you’ve got yourself a natural, non-toxic, unscented make up remover.

2. Use it as skin care product or night cream

Contrary to what you might think, you won’t get greasy skin from rubbing olive oil on your face. Olive oil is a natural product that is absorbed into your pores super quickly and does wonders for your skin. So, it’s the ideal night cream and product to include in your skin care routine, especially if you have dry skin!
