WHY SHOULD YOU APPLY TURKISH OLIVE OIL TO YOUR SKIN, HAIR AND NAILS?

In addition to its general health benefits in Turkey, Turkish olive oil is also widely used for skin, hair and nail care purposes.

Here are 7 reasons why you should add Turkish olive oil to your skin, hair and nail care routine.

It is quite useful for those who have dry skin. Also, natural lipids in Turkish olive oil contribute to the production of sebum. Sebum is the body’s natural lubricant. Turkish olive oil can also help repair damaged skin cells.

After taking a shower or bath, gently pat your skin dry. Use Turkish olive oil as a moisturizer and massage your skin while it is still slightly moist. Alternatively, apply Turkish olive oil all over your face, hands and legs before going to bed to enjoy a hydrated and supple complexion in the morning.
