Unlock Natural Beauty with a Middle Eastern Tradition

In the Middle East, olive oil isn’t just food — it’s a way of life. For centuries, Arab women have passed down the secrets of olive oil for glowing skin and luscious hair. At Green Land Food, we bring this age-old tradition straight from Jordan to your home with 100% organic olive oil that nourishes you from the inside out.

If you’re looking for clean, natural, and effective beauty solutions — these 7 olive oil hacks will help you glow naturally.

1. Overnight Hair Treatment for Deep Moisture

Apply a small amount of warm olive oil to your scalp and hair, focusing on the roots and ends. Gently massage it in for 5–10 minutes, then wrap your hair in a warm towel or silk scarf and leave it overnight.

Result:

Reduces frizz

Repairs dry, split ends

Stimulates healthy growth

This deep treatment mimics what many grandmothers in Jordan and Palestine have been doing for generations — a beauty sleep secret!

2. Hydrating Face Mask for Glowing Skin

Mix 1 tablespoon of olive oil with 1 teaspoon of natural honey. Apply it to your face and leave it on for 15–20 minutes before rinsing with warm water.

Why it works:
Olive oil deeply hydrates, while honey is antibacterial — a perfect combo for glowing, smooth skin.

💡 Tip: Use once or twice a week for best results.

3. Gentle Makeup Remover (Even for Waterproof!)

Ditch the harsh chemical removers. Olive oil gently breaks down even waterproof makeup without drying your skin.

Apply a few drops of olive oil on a cotton pad and wipe your makeup off in circular motions.

Bonus: It conditions your eyelashes and brows at the same time.

4. Natural Lip Balm for Soft, Supple Lips

Dry, chapped lips? Olive oil is a quick and clean fix. Simply dab a little on your lips before bed and wake up with smooth, soft lips.

For a DIY lip scrub, mix olive oil with brown sugar and gently exfoliate for 1–2 minutes.

5. Olive Oil & Sugar Body Scrub

Create a rejuvenating body scrub using olive oil and coarse sugar. Massage it on damp skin in circular motions during your shower.

Benefits:

Removes dead skin cells

Boosts blood circulation

Leaves skin feeling silky smooth

🧴 Optional: Add a drop of rosewater or lemon zest for a fresh scent.

6. Olive Oil Cuticle & Nail Treatment

Massage olive oil into your cuticles and nails daily to prevent cracking and strengthen nail growth.

This is a popular beauty ritual across the Levant, especially during the winter months when skin becomes dry and brittle.

7. Anti-Aging Under Eye Serum

Olive oil is packed with antioxidants like Vitamin E and polyphenols, which help reduce fine lines and puffiness.

Gently pat 1–2 drops of olive oil under your eyes before sleeping. Wake up with hydrated and refreshed eyes — no harsh chemicals required.
