Here is New Year’s Resolution #2:  Save money by using olive oil for your beauty treatments.

Replace expensive creams and lotions with olive oil as part of your regular “beauty” routine. There are numerous skin treatments using olive oil, including removing make-up and conditioning your hair and scalp. You can mix a bit of olive oil and sea salt for exfoliating, and create your own body massage oil. Use olive oil as a handy moisturizer and a shaving lotion. The benefits: olive oil is completely natural and non-allergenic, is non-irritating and extremely effective.
