Is Olive Oil Good For My Skin?

Is Olive Oil Good For My Skin?

11th Feb 2023

Yes! High quality, fresh extra virgin olive oil is packed with antioxidants and referred by many as liquid gold! 

Extra Virgin Olive Oil is compatible with our skin and as a result does not clog pores and helps to maintain our skin’s natural pH balance. It helps to form a barrier which prevents our skin from losing moisture and it also reduces excess sebum production as our skin hydrates, which reduces our natural oil output.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil is filled with antioxidants to protect our skin and help to keep the moisture in, which results in our skin being hydrated and moisturized. The antioxidants assist with anti-ageing as they encourage cell turnover to help restore our skin.

Squalene and Oleocanthal are two compounds found in fresh Extra Virgin Olive Oil and are known to have natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which may prove effective in managing conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, dryness and itching.
