" . . . The quality of the fruits and vegetables available at grocery stores is terrible. Most are laden with toxic substances, such as sulfates on grapes, pesticides . . . many times fruits and vegetables are imported from foreign countries that use toxic pesticides that are illegal in the United States."

Fight Dry Skin with Organic Olive Oil

September 24th, 2009 - Barbara Feiner

For me, autumn-proofing my skin focuses on the driest parts of my body: feet, elbows and knees.

There’s no need to buy fancy and expensive products to treat these areas, according to Sarah Callard, author of The Little Green Book of Beauty: 250 Tips for an Eco Lifestyle.

“For dry skin, use olive oil, organic if possible,” she writes. “It has excellent moisturizing properties and has been traditionally used as an intensive conditioning and moisturizing treatment for areas prone to dry skin.”

Callard recommends applying it at bedtime so you can wake up with smoother skin.

Both olive oil and olive oil-based beauty products, such as soaps, shampoos, gels, etc. are super. You will be spoiled by the ready-made stuff but it’s worth it and it’s not as pricey as you’d think.
