Dry skin? Add olive oil
By Joe and Teresa Graedon,
Q:Years ago, my dermatologist suggested I stop using all topical creams and lotions, since I am allergic to them all.
Twice a day I rub olive oil on my skin instead. On the weekends I also use it as a hair conditioner.
A: Some people might be allergic to olive oil, but for most people this can be an effective moisturizer. It may be a little greasy, though. Some women find that applying olive oil also can reduce vaginal dryness.
