This also helps tanned skin look great!
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...
Extra Lite is good to use as it's fragrance and texture is very lite!

Nice tips. Thank you! I'm going to try the hands one. I'll have to go out and buy the cotton gloves first though. But I can't wait to try it.
1My friend did this for rough heals in the winter and wore the socks on them, and her feet look like she went for a pedicure!!!
2One of my friends' grandmother and mother only used olive oil (Italians) and there skin was amazing! The grandmother looked as young as her daughter - seriously.
