If you have heavy makeup on, massage olive oil all over your face first, and then wipe it off with a wet cloth. Olive oil is also great for removing eye makeup, it will easily wipe away waterproof makeup.

3. Cracked heel repair
Having cracked heels can make you feel very self-conscious about your feet, but Olive oil will have your feet looking brand new.

Regularly apply olive oil to your hands and nails for soft hands and longer, stronger nails.
