Olive oil and Olive leaves
Olive oil and olive leaves have numerous benefits to skin.
Olive oil contains linoleic acid, a fatty acid that helps it moisturize. Because of its unique ability to mix with water, the oil penetrates deeply to help your skin stay moisturized without clogging pores. This makes it a great hydrator for all types of skin, even sensitive and combination skin that may be prone to clogged pores.
Olive leaves and olive oil have several different antioxidants, all of which help protect from environmental stressors. They also have vitamin A and E and contain several beneficial flavonoids, including quercetin, rutin, and kaempferol.
Olive oil is a wonderful oil cleanser for the skin. It works great to remove makeup and it has natural cleansing properties.
