First, hair care:

Apply olive oil to dry hair, then wrap it in a hot towel and wash it off with ordinary shampoo after 20 minutes. This dd is applied directly to the hair, preferably away from the hair roots. A name = 0> Can it be fragrant? Let it stand for 5-20 minutes and then wash it in the normal washing order, otherwise it will not be clean by water washing and oil washing alone. There is also olive oil for hair care, which is said to have a good heating effect. I thought of a more convenient heating method, that is, put the wet towel in the microwave oven, heat it for a minute or two with high fire, and then cover it on your hair. It would be more efficient if two towels were used instead.

Second, skin care methods:

1: After washing your face, gently massage with a little pure olive oil, and then apply it with a face steamer or a hot towel. This can remove the dirt invisible to the naked eye in the pores, and persist in doing so to maintain the luster and elasticity of the skin and remove fine wrinkles.

2: On the cleaned skin.

3: Wash your body when taking a bath, soak cotton in olive oil and spread it all over your body, wrap it with hot towel or plastic wrap, and rinse it with warm water after ten minutes. Medical beauty experts believe that the neck skin is closest to the face, so the neck should be wrapped with a small towel, especially the chin, and olive oil should be used more.

4. Use olive oil as the base oil before we put on makeup, which can nourish the skin and prevent the powder from falling off;

5. Gently massage the face with olive oil when removing makeup, which can effectively remove oil paint and cosmetics and protect our face from erosion;

6. Olive oil can be used as baby skin care products, which westerners think is edible skin care products!

7: Put a thin layer of olive oil on your mouth, and then apply lip balm. My mouth used to be dry and cracked, but now it's fine.

8: olive oil massages the black nose, which is very effective. But then, you need to shrink the water.

@ Olive Oil Mask

Ingredients: 1 teaspoon condensed milk, 1/4 teaspoon pure olive oil.

Method: Mix condensed milk and olive oil, apply a thin layer on your face, then apply the second layer for two minutes, and then apply it to the fourth layer. After completely drying, wipe it with a wet cloth dipped in warm water.

No matter what brand of olive oil you buy, you must choose extra virgin. This scientific name is virgin olive oil, which is mentioned in our country's import tariff. Olive oil is a mess at home, but it is very formal abroad. You should believe in foreign languages. Olive oil without extra vitamin is not good, but virgin olive oil alone is ok. To make matters worse, some are pure, refined, or just olive oil without any modifiers. Those are refined oils, all chemically refined, not pure olive oil at all. I have seen many saleswomen even sell olive oil (pomase) as good olive oil and brag to consumers. In fact, olive oil is rarely eaten abroad. In 2002, olive oil obtained by leaching method was found to contain carcinogens, and China Customs banned the import. In a word, it is absolutely right to recognize foreign trademark, but you can't listen to the salesgirl and the fake goods in the manual.

In addition, the countries of origin of virgin olive oil also attach great importance to it. Generally, the countries of origin are Spain, Italy and Greece in the European Union, but there is a problem here, that is, Italy and Greece are big consumers of olive oil themselves, so they buy Spanish olive oil and bottle it for export. This shows that Italian businessmen are very clever. They make the packaging gorgeous, and many of them are filled with Spanish oil. (Look at the images of Don Quixote and Sancho, both Spanish farmers. So with the cost of re-export, olive oil in Italy and Greece is very expensive, not because of their good quality. Even the olive oil produced in our country will not be as good as they claim. This is all propaganda. There are hundreds of kinds of olive fruits that can be used to extract oil. More importantly, the oil in their bottles may not be fresh.

Hehe, if it weren't for imported olive oil, I wouldn't know all this knowledge. It seems that our domestic consumers have to learn some commodity knowledge when they buy things, otherwise they will definitely be cheated and help others out with some money.

Many domestic businesses will use the concept of confusion to deceive consumers for profit. These reports are too numerous to mention. Just like many of these things, 99% of the olive oil in the ascendant is imported, and the concept is confused by the sales staff. Because I have imported olive oil, I want to share some experiences with you.

No matter what salespeople tell you about the uniqueness of olive oil in their hands, for example, it is produced in a certain area and has several stars, which can promote blood circulation, maintain health and so on. They are regarded as X, you can understand many things just by looking at the standard of olive oil. Because 90% of olive oil is mainly produced in Spain, Italy, Greece and other Mediterranean countries (because olive trees are only suitable for growing in the Mediterranean climate), these countries are basically EU countries, and the packaging instructions of food must conform to EU standards and norms, so no matter how different the imported olive oil brands are, the grades are uniform.

The best grade is extra virgin, which is virgin olive oil. Compared with the oil currently produced in China, this kind of oil has not been refined or subjected to high temperature, and its nutrition has been retained only by low-temperature pressing. Interested friends can check the efficacy of olive oil online, so there is no need to go into details here.

Then the next grade of olive oil is refined oil, (pure) or nothing, and it says olive oil, which is the oil of many China people's nominal 100% olive oil. In fact, it is just an oil, which is also obtained through the above refining process. The only difference is that he will blend 10-20% virgin olive oil to enhance its fragrance. Many businesses are selling this oil, saying it is the best.

What is even more exasperating is that some merchants will sell a kind of residual oil as high-grade olive oil. This olive oil will be marked: pomace or refined, and Italian residual oil will be marked with sansa. Generally, 4% of the residual oil in the pomace is not squeezed out, so the refinery will recover the pomace, extract the oil by chemical leaching, and then refine it to get the oil. This oil caused food poisoning in Spain 9 1, and people died. 1992, the import of which was prohibited by China Customs. Many black-hearted businesses sell this oil to consumers because it is cheap.

Virgin olive oil does have a lot of health care functions, but it is not as magical as the seller blows, nor can it be eaten at once. But it is actually more economical to make up with virgin olive oil, because it is the base oil of all oil cosmetics. Someone asked if the virgin olive oil you eat can be put on your face, and that's for sure, because what you can eat can definitely be put on your face, but what you put on your face may not be edible.

Let's start with the price. In Carrefour, Europe, the average virgin olive oil is about 3.20 euros/liter, and with the import tax, the dealer's general cost price is about 45 yuan/liter. Compared with China, olive oil is an essential oil in Europe, so the price increase rate of supermarkets is relatively low. The price increase rate of imported food in domestic supermarkets is generally 20%, which greatly hinders the popularization of olive oil. The average residual oil is about 60% of the price of virgin olive oil.

All the above mentioned are pure imported olive oil. If even the front label is in Chinese, I can't say it's olive oil repackaged in China. If there were no food control in the EU, many things would have happened. Alas, it is not easy to be a consumer in China. If you want to buy food, you must be a food expert. If you want to buy electrical appliances, you have to learn to be an electrician.

Identification of olive oil

-

Sometimes you can roughly tell the quality of various olive oils from their colors. For example, for purified olive oil, some can be almost white. That's because virgin olive oil is not added.

Generally speaking, the truly high-quality virgin olive oil has a strong color, a little natural green, and a rich golden yellow color, but it seems to reflect a little green, but it is still transparent, pure, bright and clear, without impurities and residues. Just like a handsome boy, his beauty and elegance are written on his face. On the contrary, the poor quality virgin olive oil looks cloudy, sticky, opaque and not refreshing. In the market, it is easy to find that many so-called virgin olive oil, at first glance, are obscene, cramped and lifeless, and even look like gangsters dressed as gentlemen with bad ideas, but they are not. The so-called tasteless person is also. But in winter, the better the quality of olive oil, the easier it is to coagulate and agglutinate. This is because the higher the content of monounsaturated fatty acids, the easier it is to agglutinate. Good quality olive oil is often at a relatively high temperature. For example, when the ambient temperature of Earl olive oil is 10- 15℃, solidification clouds will gather.

Generally speaking, the lower the acidity of virgin olive oil, the better. The higher the acidity of purified olive oil, the better. Earl virgin olive oil ranks among the best, with the highest acidity of 0.5 degrees. It is meaningless to compare the acidity of purified olive oil. In fact, it is only to compare the proportion of virgin olive oil, because the purified oil has been deacidified. Therefore, the acidity of purified oil will not be higher than virgin olive oil. This is why the maximum acidity of Earl 100% ultra-pure olive oil is only 0.5 degrees.

Comparing the color of purified oil has the most practical significance. The purified oil can be white in the end. The higher the proportion of virgin olive oil, the stronger the color, the better the quality and the higher the price. Earl Borges 100% purified olive oil has the highest proportion of virgin olive oil, up to 15%, with rich and translucent color and rich but not light taste.
