Oh ok gotcha. I'm Sorry if My question sounded rude or ignorant, I was only curious because my son has an olive skin tone and I was wondering how to accentuate it so he would look more like his father. Thanks for quick the response :-) looks like olive oil may help!

Coconut oil, maybe lavender oil drops too. I would avoid john sons and johnsons anything bc it is full of chemicals.
