Product Introduction
Olive oil is a popular cosmetic raw material known for its nourishing and moisturizing properties. Extracted from the fruit of the olive tree, this natural oil is rich in fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants, making it a valuable ingredient in skincare formulations. Its versatility allows it to be used in various applications, from moisturizers and serums to hair treatments.
Production Process
The production of olive oil involves several steps to ensure the extraction of high-quality oil. First, ripe olives are harvested and washed to remove impurities. The olives are then crushed into a paste, which is mixed to facilitate the release of oil. This paste is subjected to mechanical pressing or centrifugation to separate the oil from the solid components. The oil is then filtered and stored, maintaining quality through careful processing methods.

Its rich composition, including oleic acid and antioxidants such as vitamin E, helps combat oxidative stress, making it beneficial for anti-aging products. Additionally, it possesses anti-inflammatory properties that can help soothe irritated skin.

It can be found in moisturizers, lotions, and creams designed for dry skin, as well as in serums targeting mature skin.
