Olive oil makeup remover

When you apply makeup, your face tends to become oily by the end of the day. The skin attracts dirt and dust when you are out and about which leads to pimples and acnes.

Use extra virgin olive oil to wipe off your makeup as this ingredient has antibacterial properties which can protect your skin and also keep your skin moisturized.
