When it comes to moisturizing dry skin, there is no better moisturizer than olive oil. Olive oil is loaded with skin loving nutrients and is a natural humectant that actually helps attract moisture to your dry skin. Olive oil contains antioxidants, squalene, clorophyll,vitamin e, vitamin k, phenols, oleocanthal and more. It doesn't contain irritants such as perfumes or dyes, and it doesn't take much to use; just apply an amount directly to dry skin, wrinkles, and stretch marks.
           There are many different types of cosmetics that contain olive oil so you need to be careful when choosing the right product for your dry skin care needs. Olive oil is also great for the scalp and works wonders with dry tresses accompanied by dry scalp. Olive oil is rich in polyphenols: antioxidants that check the spread of free radicals, or damaging substances caused by sun exposure, pollution, smoking, and alcohol.
         Face mask for dry skin on face: Add a few drops of olive oil to clay mud or mashed avocado, then apply the paste to your face. Let it sit for five to ten minutes, then rinse off.If your cuticles are ragged and your nails brittle and dry, soak nails for 30 minutes in a small cup of olive oil. Smooth on a generous amount of olive oil before bed, put on white cotton gloves, and go to sleep. Your hands will be softer and smoother in the morning. To soothe and smoothe dry, chapped lips, dab on a little olive oil.
