For the first time this tool was noticed in ancient Greece. The Greeks got olives from Egypt and used them to make an oil that was so popular among them that it was called liquid gold. Olive oil is obtained by squeezing the fruits of a tree that grows in warm regions. A quality product is stored in its pure form for only five months after packaging. After that, its beneficial properties come to naught, and it becomes unsuitable for cosmetic procedures. But at the same time, it is quite possible to eat it.

The main useful component that is part of olive oil is vitamin E. It helps to make the skin firmer, smoother and more elastic.

If you do not know which tool is better to buy, then these tips will definitely come in handy. First of all, to decide whether the product is of high quality in front of you, its appearance will help. Natural olive oil should have a greenish or pale yellow hue. The taste of this product gives a slight bitterness.

If we talk about the manufacturer, then the oils that are created in the Mediterranean countries are considered the highest quality. These are the ones worth buying. The product may be refined or unrefined. The first option is obtained by exposure to high temperatures. This makes the tool less useful.

In order not to be disappointed in the purchased product, try to avoid fakes. And having bought it, store it in suitable conditions - at a temperature not exceeding fifteen degrees, avoiding sunlight on the bottle.

Olive oil is one of the most famous ways to fight cellulite. For the most noticeable result, use the product during the wrapping process. A popular wrap recipe is a combination of pure olive oil with coarse sea salt.

To prepare a product for wrapping, you just need to dissolve salt in a glass of warm water, adding a few drops of thick olive oil and the same amount of any ether to the liquid. The finished mixture is cooled and then applied to problem areas: abdomen, hips, waist.

To make the effect more noticeable, you need to wrap yourself in cling film, and wrap yourself in something warm on top, such as a blanket or downy scarf. After you wrap yourself up and start to warm up, mark for half an hour and lie still all this time. When the allotted time has passed, the mixture can be safely washed off. This procedure works well only if you wrap regularly, that is, twice a month.

Another wrap recipe is more concentrated. Here you no longer need water - take 250 mo of pure olive oil and add a couple of drops of juniper, lavender and lemon. The mixture should be slightly heated, but not brought to a boil. When it becomes warm, apply the oily liquid to your body.From above, as in the previous case, you need to wrap yourself with cling film and something warm.

Such wraps should be carried out regularly, only then you will notice progress. Use this remedy twice a week and the cellulite on your thighs will either disappear completely or become less noticeable.

Another way to take care of your skin with olive oil is massage. In this case, such a product is used as a base, which can be supplemented with any other essential additives.

This method of application is very good due to the fact that during the massage you warm up the body, which means that beneficial substances penetrate the body faster. Before using this tool, it needs to be slightly warmed up. The temperature should be comfortable so as not to burn your body when touched.

The most popular option is massage oil with a calming effect. To prepare it, you will need an olive base and a few drops of lavender ether.

The combination of an olive base with peppermint has the opposite result. Having done a massage with such a product, you will tone your body and activate your mental abilities. If you want to massage your soulmate, then you can use a special composition that increases libido for this. To prepare it, you will need to add a few drops of bergamot, patchouli or ylang-ylang oil to the heated base.

Such a homemade scrub with fine abrasive particles will perfectly cleanse the skin. And due to the fact that it is prepared on the basis of nourishing oil, the skin will be moisturized at the same time. The effect will be more noticeable if such a composition is supplemented with a drop of ether. This tool can be used both for cleansing the whole body and for scrubbing the face.

It must be applied to the skin in an even layer and not washed off for an hour, so that the composition nourishes the upper layer of the epidermis with useful substances. For dry skin, this mask will be a real salvation.

To give elasticity, a simple mask is suitable for you, based on simple elements - honey, lemon and olive oil. All elements are selected in equal amounts, mixed and applied to the skin for 20 minutes.

Almost everyone can use olive oil. If you do not have allergic reactions and your skin does not get oily after using this product, then you can safely use it in your body care. You can do this during pregnancy, and in adolescence, and when the skin begins to fade. Since this product is quite oily, masks and massages are best done before a shower. But after a shower, you can lubricate the body with lotion or milk, to which a few drops of this “liquid gold” are added.Thus, you will not make your skin unpleasantly oily to the touch, but nourish it perfectly.

Since ancient times, this tool has received positive reviews. But there are also cases when it simply does not suit a person according to some individual parameters. If the oil dries the skin too much, then try combining it with moisturizers or adding it to nourishing masks. If, on the contrary, it is oily, then use it as an addition to body care cosmetics - add one drop to lotion or milk. The result, as many reviews confirm, will be noticeable very soon.
