Premium Grade Carrier Oil – Olive

Attributes

Olive oil is a natural vegetable oil obtained from the pressed fruit of the olive tree, which is mainly cultivated in Mediterranean countries, such as Spain, Italy and Greece. It contains lots of natural fatty acids, Vitamins A and E, minerals and antioxidants (polyphenols and phytosterols).

Olive oil possesses excellent emollient properties and is a very popular oil used in cosmetics and personal care products, in particular, face wash and soaps products. It is also commonly used in anti-aging skin care products. Refined Olive oil is well suited to cosmetic products as the colour and aroma is lighter.

Several of the benefits of this oil include its ability to make the skin supple, its anti-inflammatory properties, and its healing properties. It can be used to treat psoriasis and eczema symptoms due to its thick consistency. Applying it on the skin may help protect it from external irritation and help it to recover from the damage caused by irritating agents. It also helps softens and hydrates cracked heels and reduces stretch marks. Using Olive oil on your hair and scalp can be beneficial and has been used since ancient times. To achieve best results, warm the oil gently and apply generously to your hair ends and scalp. Leave in for 10-20 minutes, then thoroughly shampoo your hair.
