Call me Olive

Happy New Year!

If like us you have been enjoy the party season then you will know the key to eternal youth is how you take care of your skin!

For me, during the party season and beyond its all about removing make up before I go to bed at night.

Sleeping on make up is really bad for your skin and can lead to blocked pores. I remove my make up, especially my eye make up with olive oil.

I buy a 50p bottle of olive oil which can be purchased at most beauty counters or bargain stores.

Best of all, olive oil is totally natural and won't clog your pores!

Olive oil contains vitamin E and A and is anti ageing due to the absence of 'free radicals'. The healthy fats in olive oil help to moisturise your skin and the fats are similar to human fats and therefore olive oil is great for those with sensitive skin.

Top tips;
- add to a cotton wool pad before applying to your skin
- massage gently in circular motions (towards your heart)
- remove excess oil by wiping away with a clean pad
- wash your hands thoroughly
