Olive Oil’s Benefits for Skin
Olive oil is packed with healthy vitamins, fats, and antioxidants, and these components can contribute to healthier-looking skin. It moisturizes skin by locking in moisture, and its antioxidants can help to improve signs of aging.
Currently, we know of the following skin benefits of olive oil:
- Moisturizes the skin: Olive oil contains squalene and vitamin E. Squalene supports the skin’s moisture retention, whereas vitamin E increases the skin’s capacity to absorb and retain water.2
- Reduces the signs of aging: Olive oil is rich in antioxidants. These compounds can combat oxidative stress, which is associated with skin aging. They can also increase collagen in the skin.1
- Helps cleanse the skin: Because like attracts like, olive oil can be used to dissolve oily residue on the skin. That said, it can be used to remove certain types of makeup—particularly waterproof products.3
- Promotes wound healing: Olive oil also has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, which can aid in wound healing.4 Studies show that olive oil may be able to promote healing of diabetic foot ulcers5 and prevent pressure ulcers.6
