    On One Hand: It Eliminates Their Appearance

    Olive oil can help to moisturize the thin, delicate skin around the eyes, minimizing the appearance of crow's feet. Crow's feet are small wrinkles and fine lines that occur at the outer corner of the eyes. Although these lines develop as a result of aging, squinting and smiling, the crow's feet tend to develop more rapidly on dry skin. Olive oil should help soothe the skin and add extra moisture to the area.

    On the Other: It Does Not Work for Everyone

    Although the treatment works on some people, it may have no effect on other people. In fact, FreeBeautyTips.org recommends that the way to fight crow's feet is to use a product containing glycolic acid or alpha hydroxy acid (AHA). These acids seep into the skin to add more elasticity to the skin, smoothing out the fine lines and wrinkles.

    Bottom Line

    Some people find that olive oil is an effective moisturizer for the delicate skin around the eyes. When olive oil is applied to the area on a regular basis, the skin will become moisturized, lessening the appearance of the crow's feet. However, olive oil will not work for everyone. Some cases of crow's feet may require stronger treatments.
