Olive oil is suitable for all skin types. It is naturally rich in Oleic Acid (Omega 9) which is very moisturising, regenerating and softening on the skin, plus it boasts skin anti-inflammatory properties.
Olive oil is high in squalene, which helps to regulate oil production and improve cell regeneration. Squalene is critical for vitamin D synthesis in the skin and is found naturally in the oils produced by youthful skin (sebum).
The function of sebum is to moisturise and protect skin which declines as we age, making olive oil a superb ingredient to include in skincare.
Our extra virgin olive oil is sourced from a local family operated olive grove in Robertson. To ensure maximum quality and preservation of nutrients and antioxidants, the olives are cold pressed immediately after harvest.
