olive oil skin recipes

Is it good to use olive oil on a red spot/mark after the scab fell off the skin? would it help to fade it, and therefore blend it in better with the rest of the skin?

I experienced this too until a friend of mine recommended olive oil and sugar mixed together instead of soap. I swear by it now!! No irritation and it makes my legs super soft!

I was told to use olive oil on myself to prevent stretchmarks, I am now 33+5 and NO STRETCHMARKS! I don't know if it is from the olive oil or just my skin.... Has anyone else ever heard of this or used olive oil???

12 c whole leaf spinach, 4 c bean liquid (or water), 1/4 c lemon juice - fresh squeezed with pulp, 3 T garlic - diced fine, 6 T olive oil Method: Place the reserved liquid into a large pan and put in a steaming basket. Bring it to a boil and then add in the spinach. Cook (while stirring a bit) until the leaves are lightly wilted. Place into a large serving dish, add in the lemon, garlic and oil, toss to mix.

I have a question on applying extra virgin olive oil to the skin. I've heard a few people state that they use olive oil as a natural skin softener. What about applying it directly to my face overnight? Is this a safe way to reduce or help with wrinkles?

Whole wheat pasta tossed in a little Olive oil.... add fresh tomatoes, whatever meat you like... Any extra veggies... just made it and wish I added fresh spinach and black olives. My husband said he thought mushrooms would be good (I'm not a fan of mushrooms).

I make a vinaigrette very similar. I use 1/2 Cup Olive oil, one cup red wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon spicy mustard, 2 teasp garlic powder, one packet parmesian (from what the pizza guy leaves) salt to taste. I have put a pinch or 2 of sugar because it's pretty sour but once on the salad, it's really good. It gets better the longer it sits in the fridge. Another good thing is a little bit goes a LONG WAY. Some recipes call for same amount oil as vinegar.

She could also be allergic to the food she is eating. When you bathe her be sure to rinse her really good.

I am 47 and have just been tested for food allergies. I am allergic to soy, corn and canola oil. I don't have much in the way of recipes and was wondering if anyone else out there has this problem and would like to share or swap their recipes with me?

At night you can try coconut oil or olive oil, but it's a bit heavy for day time use. These still allow your skin to breathe much better than the petroleum jelly will. If you're prone to acne, ditch the Vaseline for sure. If you only use the coconut oil for your skin at night and it doesn't bother your skin, still only apply lightly. The coconut oil at the discount supplement store that is used to cook with is the same one you would use for skin and hair applications.

Lemon/lime juice, pepper and a dash of salt keep the calories down, than drizzle it with just a touch of olive oil. Pan frying it in Olive oil isnt terribly sinful, you can also bake or broil it. Brown rice boiled in low sodium beef/chicken or vegetable broth adds a kick without the calories of butter, and I am a huge fan of any green vegetable steamed/cooked and sprinkled with parmesan cheese...I know it SOUNDS strange but it tastes great to me.

Or take boneless skinless chicken breasts drizzle olive oil on then sprinkle with bread crumbs an bake it an then take sweet potatoes skin them cut in cubes place in dish with brown sugar an butter an bake soooo good

Make sure they contain stearic acid, cholesterol and ceramides which really help keep your skin moist. Another great supplement to use is nigella sativa powder internally and nigella sativa oil ( 3 coconut oil-1 nigella sativa mix) topically.

Hi...I read some time ago (quite a few years infact) about olive oil on dry skin..and I would rub it in after each shower...while still wet. Wow..and had forgotten about it, I will make a point of adding that to my shower stall again for my old alligator skin . Thanks for that!

I am a 22 year old girl. I am fair and have smooth skin but my skin is not clear. I tend to have pimples and boils on my face. The boils appear on my forehead and cheeks. They are not painful or itchy but simple swellings and they come in clusters. Few days back i massaged my face with olive oil but i got rashes on my face> how do i treat it. My otherwise health is good but overweight. What do i do to clear my skin because these problems recur regularly. Mine is a normal skin.

Use olive oil, it seems to help a lot! Or I just got this stuff made by Dr. Teals and its bath and body oil, it works great and fast absorbing!

ll have to get the name) that you can use on your chicken and then spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray or a light coating of olive oil (my preference) and place the chicken rolled in the seasoning in the oven. Halfway through baking simply turn it over and voila .. oven baked chicken that tastes like it was pan fried. Best wishes on your upcoming marriage .. how exciting!!! Hope to see you here again!!!

t had any stretch marks and I love to scrub. Olive oil is also good for the skin too just be sure you have more salt then oil if you make an at home one... It doesn't take a lot of oil at all.

ve been doing since the hot summers of California to the mildly warm what we call winter here also is using coconut oil or olive oil on my belly, butt, hips and breasts (all stretch mark prone areas). Because they're the best in locking in moisture. Especially after a shower. At night I've also tried to take warm oil baths. Which soothes my achy joints and moisturize my body at the same time, you can also get your hubby to help you rub in the oil after you get out of the bath..

I have been diluting the tree tea oil with olive oil as I read that it is too strong otherwise..does anyone know of any other means of diluting it....the health food store said I could use any means..whatever that means..Lazy licks it anyway...bandages..well you know how that goes over...but as he is chewing it off, at least it sinks in...thanks guys...

Tonight, I am making chicken breast marinated in olive oil and balsamic vinegar, baked with mozzarella and then topped with bruschetta :) then I'll make some butter/garlic pasta, Caesar salad, red potatoes and homemade French bread with olive oil and vinegar with it. Husband is very happy! Lol. What are you ladies having? What are your biggest cravings?

Hi, your pug could be suffering from an allergy. Or he could just have dry skin, due to insufficient Omega 3's. Try changing your dogs diet to the very best food you can afford. Something with no grains and preferably organic. Luckily for you, your pug is a small dog, and providing him with good quality food, shouldn't break your budget. You can also provide him with Olive Oil twice daily. 1 to 1 and 1/2 teaspoons.

For sore throat and cough I make my own cough syrup with honey, ginger, olive oil, lemon juice and cinnamon (that part is for taste) and a bit of apple cider vinegar. You can find recipes online. It helps a LOT and you can take it as often as you need.

Another is large salad with olive oil and roasted chicken thigh with skin on. Google LCHF and you will see a whole bunch of doctors and nutritionists with tons of meals and recipes (simple and inexpensive). Try it for a week and you will see the weight loss happen and food cravings reduce, as this style of eating keeps your blood sugar stable all day long and trains your body to burn fat in absence if insulin secretion. This was the best thing that I ever did in my life.

He gave me a course of anti-biotics and some ear drops which are just olive oil. I put the drops in at about 10AM this morning and I couldn't hear anything. It's now 6.20pm and I still can't hear. I've slept in my side, used a tea towel soaked in hot water and q-tips but nothing works! This is really doing my head in. Does anybody know how to get olive oil out? Much appreciated!
