Looking Good - Mediterranean Beauty�?/FONT>
"Tips To Help You Look & Feel Your Best"
------------------------------------------------------------
For centuries, Mediterranean beauties have relied on olive
oil to help maintain good health, a fresh, dewy complexion,
lustrous hair, and more. Here are a few very simple tricks using
one of the oldest beauty ingredients around...
Cuticles and nails...
If your cuticles are ragged and your nails brittle and dry,
olive oil can help. Soak nails for 30 minutes in a small cup
of olive oil. Warm the olive oil in the microwave for a few
seconds to give you added benefits...
Hands...
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. If you don't think you can handle
sleeping in gloves, try leaving them on at least an hour while
watching TV, or kicking back...
Lips...
To soothe and smoothe dry, chapped lips, dab on a little olive oil
and gently rub it in...
Skin...
Massage a small amount of olive oil into skin whenever you need
softening and moisturizing. Apply extra oil to rough or cracked
areas...
Bath...
Add several tablespoons of olive oil to your bath, along with a
few drops of your favorite essential oil, to soothe and nourish
your skin... http://www.gophercentral.com
