Yup. I have a big bottle of EVOO and I put a little bit in a container to use in the bathroom. DD18 started using it and loves it as, surprisingly, it helped her acne.

It has so many added benefits like acting as an anti-inflammatory, loaded with vitamins (vitamins A, B-1, B-2, C, D, E and K and in iron) which can be absorbed through your skin, and lots of Omega's.

I am sure you can do a google search to find out more info on the benefits of olive oil and uses for it. I learned about using it on some thrift/money saving site and decided to give it a try. It worked and worked well!
