We’ve got some Olive Oil Beauty Tips for you. The benefits of olive oil on the face for are nearly endless! Using olive oil for face masks is one of the many beauty secrets of nature that Temecula Olive Oil Company has been keeping track of for the last twenty years. While olive oil is popularly known for the amazing health benefits it provides as part of a balanced diet, olive oil treatments can also be used to keep your appearance beautiful and youthful.

The ancient Egyptians, Romans, Greeks and Phoenicians all acknowledged the beauty benefits of olive oil for face, skin, hair, nails and even fresh breath. Scientific research in the last century has revealed that olive oil is rich in vitamins A, D, K and particularly vitamin E, which are protective antioxidants that minimize damage caused by “free radicals” (unstable atoms and molecules) that cause cell oxidation and aging.

The following are some simple personal care tips you can use to incorporate olive oil treatments into your beauty routine.
