Traditional domestic lore has always maintained that olive oil is a useful beauty aid. For thin and delicate hair: Beat together olive oil, a bit of shampoo, an egg yolk, beer and a little lemon juice and wash your hair with the mixture. Repeat as needed. For wrinkles: Twice a week, massage your face with oil mixed with lemon juice. For dry skin: Mix together a mask of olive oil and an avocado. Leave on for 10 minutes. Rinse well and pat dry.  For a better tan: Mix together olive oil, water and a bit of lemon and rub
it over the exposed areas of your body. Warning! This mixture doesn't protect from harmful sun rays, so use in addition to --not in place of-- your usual protection.Olive oil as a natural medicine: it's often recommended for burns (oil on the affected area followed by a light coating of flour) and many a midnight earache has been alleviated by a few drops of warm olive oil in the ear canal. |
