OLIVE OIL

Yes. Olive oil.

I love this thing because it’s so multi-purpose. And under comparison, budget wise. You’ll get what I mean in a bit =)

Pietro Coricelli Extra Virgin Olive Oil (RM 14.90)

I got a smaller bottle of this from the local supermarket. Erm. I’ll explain what I did with this bottled oil….

1. Cooking

Okay la. I don’t cook usually unless extremely necessary. The truth is, I kinda doubt my own cooking because I find it hard to finish my portion (because it’s not tasty)and terpaksa force everything into my tummy because I’m the one who cooked it.

LOL. I just made olio pasta (erm, pasta with garlic and olive oil). I like olio pasta for one very simple reason: there’s no meat. I don’t need to tell the chef to omit the meat or whatsoever when I eat out. It seems pretty simple but the outcome I did was…… edible. Yeah, edible, but tastes weird. (I can’t estimate ingredients properly. Whether I estimate properly or not the outcome is just weird lah anyway.)

2. Hair care

Yalah. I know you think I’m gross for putting cooking oil on my hair. But it works okay? My hair is getting real dry at the ends because I dye my hair quite often and I haven’t got the ends trimmed, despite using conditioner. So I tried olive oil treatment.

Just pour out 1/2 cup of olive oil, microwave it for 20 seconds until it’s warm, then apply it to your hair. Warp your hair in cling film (I used towel though), then leave on for at least 1/2 hour. You want leave on overnight also can (as according to the website). After that shampoo and condition.

Honestly I think it works. I’m not saying my hair is now like the Pantene model lah. I mean it’s better as compared to before.

3. Makeup remover

YES. This is the budget wise part. I have never seen any makeup remover sold at RM14.90 per liter. AND olive oil removes everything. Even waterproof mascara. I’ve been using this for 6 months now I think, mostly for eye makeup. Just sort of massage the oil on then wipe off with cotton pad. Wash your face after that.

Warning: Un-fresh olive oil can become a burden to your skin.

4. Moisturizer

Because I don’t like my whole face getting oily, I just use one tiny bit on my face/ body. But I don’t usually do that since I have lotion and face moisturizer. Oh well, but it works. Once I put too much Oxy 5 (the acne curing cream) on my face and it sorta made my face too dry. So I dabbed on some olive oil and the next morning my skin’s back to normal.

Um, I’ve heard that wearing olive oil on your skin and going under the hot sun can cause the olive oil to ‘burn’. Maybe it’s not fire but definitely something not good for skin.

Basically those are stuff that I do with it, for more uses you can visit:

This is just one from a million uses. Just Google : ‘Olive oil uses’ and you receive tons of results.
