(OLIVE OIL)

Olive oil was cultivated and used by Greeks as a moisturizer and is used today for its anti-inflammatory properties, Vitamin E, and omega 6 and 9 acids.

Rich in fatty acids, olive oil is from the Mediterranean region and has traditionally been used in a wide variety of cosmetic products, from skin care to hair care. Used for both cleansing and emulsifying, as well as for increasing viscosity, olive oil was used in folk medicine in topical applications for its anti-inflammatory properties. Ideal for treatments on rough skin, damaged hair it protects, moisturizes, and reconstructs. Comprised of omega 3, 6 and 9 acids, palmitic acid, stearic acid, vitamin E, polyphenols, and carotenoids, olive oil is rich in nutritional benefits for skin and hair.
