Oil is a natural moisturizer and cleanser for daily skin care. Coconut oil is good for hair and olive and almond oil is good for the skin. As the skin becomes dry in this season, natural moisturizers are great for proper skin care. Lets take a look the beauty recipes using olive oil.

Beauty recipes using olive oil:

Olive oil: After bath, just apply olive oil on your skin to moisturize it and keep it soft whole day. Olive oil not only moisturizes but also makes the skin glossy and shiny. To remove dark spots from the skin, apply olive oil and massage 20 minutes before taking bath. This makes it easy to scrub out dead skin.

Olive oil steam: Apply olive oil on your face and neck. Leave for 4-5 minutes and then take steam. This opens the skin pores and cleanses the skin naturally. It is also effective to get rid of sun tan.

Olive oil and sandalwood: Take a tsp of sandalwood powder and add few drops of olive oil. Apply the face mask and leave for 7-10 minutes. Rinse with cold water. This is an ideal olive oil recipe for oily skin.

Olive oil sugar: To get rid of dark skin or elbows, mix sugar and olive oil. Scrub on the skin and leave for 5 minutes. Rinse with cold water and apply a moisturizer to get soft glowing skin.

Olive and lavender oil: Mix olive oil and add few drops of lavender oil. Massage on the face and leave overnight. This is an effective olive oil beauty recipe for dry skin.
