HISTORYIn Ancient Rome, the Elite used Olive Oil extensively in the treatment of all types of skin disease, to detoxify the body and as an anti-aging regimen. After taking long hot baths, they would apply Olive Oil to draw out impurities. After this treatment, they would then immerse their bodies in a cold bath to close the skin’s pores and to trap the toxins out of the body, whereby they would scrape away the oil and toxins away from the skin.
Anti-Aging & Skin Repair BenefitsOlive oil, with its high content of anti-oxidant properties, is used extensively as an anti-aging ingredient in many modern day beauty products. Many cosmetic and pharmaceutical companies have done extensive research that revealed the polyphenol compounds that are found in Olive Oil assist the skin’s ability to heal itself from sun-damage.
