Description

It is obtained by pressing the fruits of the olive tree, which are rich in vitamins A, E, and K, omega-3 fatty acids, and oleic acid. The oil extracted from them has a light consistency, absorbs quickly, and provides intense moisturization. It is one of the most commonly used oils in cosmetics.

Effects and Usage

Olive oil has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It increases skin elasticity and strengthens tissue, soothes and heals eczema-prone skin and acne. We love using olive oil in soaps, balms, and facial oils. In its saponified form, it becomes part of the base of our soaps, ensuring a soft and gentle lather.

It is suitable for dry, sensitive, baby, flaky, mature, irritated, and problematic skin. It is not very suitable for very oily skin, as it may cause pore clogging.
