Face Scrub with EVOO on Dry Skin
If you have dry skin, EVOO will become your best friend. Don’t use olive oil on skin prone to acne and eczema. Simply mix a tablespoon of EVOO with a teaspoon of Greek honey, and finely ground coffee beans, sugar or oatmeal. Alternatively, you can mix ground chamomile with extra virgin olive oil, sugar and a drop of calendula essential oil. Apply little by little, using circular movements, then leave the scrub to dry on your face for about 10 minutes before rinsing with lukewarm water. Use a warm, damp towel to remove any excess oil.
