IT EFFECTIVELY REMOVES ALL YOUR MAKEUP, INCLUDING WATERPROOF
Cleaning your skin every night is an essential step and just as important as sun protection. The best thing we can do for our face is to avoid aggressive surfactants that end up increasing dryness and sensitivity of our skin in the long run. There are some neutral and skin-friendly soaps, such as the real soap of Marseille, but these will not succeed in removing traces of makeup, especially if it is waterproof. The most effective way is to use oils that will emulsify with these products left on the skin and help eliminate them completely. And that’s where extra virgin olive oil comes in. It can be used on a washable make-up remover. Massage the skin in circular motions without pressing too hard. The components of makeup products will become foamy and self-extinguishing. To remove oil and makeup, use a towel soaked in warm water.

IT PROTECTS AND MOISTURIZES THE SKIN
Extra virgin olive oil has exceptional moisturizing and nourishing properties for the skin of the face and body. Its high content of vitamins A and E but also D and K makes it an ideal product to protect (especially in winter) and nourish the most sensitive skin. This natural ingredient can also be used as a night moisturizer. To do this, you just need to heat a few drops of oil in your hand and apply it on your face. This application is not recommended for oily skin.

IT REPAIRS DAMAGED SKIN AND REGENERATES CELLS AFTER SUNBURN
Our skin is the organ that suffers most from sun exposure. It must be protected as much as possible with a suitable sunscreen. Unfortunately, this is not always enough to keep a peach skin. Olive oil can then help you repair damaged skin tissue thanks to its healing properties. A few drops are enough to repair dry and cracked areas.

REVITALIZES THE SKIN AND MAKES IT MORE TONED
Rich in vitamins, minerals and fatty acids, olive oil is a great ally to revitalize your face. It will give her shine, tonicity and softness and make her firmer. The oleic acid it contains will stimulate the regeneration of your skin cells that will gain elasticity.

IT HELPS TO FIGHT AGAINST SKIN AGING
The aging of our cells is inevitable, however, some external factors amplify it. This is the case of the sun as we mentioned earlier, but also stress and poor diet. Again, thanks to its high polyphenol content, Extra virgin olive oil has antioxidant and anti-aging properties that act against the formation of free radicals that cause oxidative stress that affects the structure of the skin and causes premature aging. Olive oil also helps to reduce aging spots and fine lines.

THE NOURISHING BENEFITS OF OLIVE OIL
Olive oil is a vegetable-based fatty liquid. Like all vegetable oils, olive oil is essential in cosmetics. It is distinguished by its unique composition, rich in unsaturated fatty acids beneficial to the skin barrier and therefore, to the hydration of the skin. The skin barrier is a protective shield. It is on this that the strength and hydration of the skin rest. Composed of a fatty film - «hydrolipidic film» consisting mainly of secretions including sebum and sweat - and dead cells, the skin barrier forms an occlusive film on the external part of the epidermis. This waterproof cement thus prevents the loss of water (dehydration) and external aggressions (UV, pollution, microbe...).
The skin barrier is not always as strong as it should be. Controlled by each person’s secretion of sebum.

the density of the skin barrier varies from individual to individual and determines the type of skin.
We differentiate between dry skin, whose skin barrier, too fine, does not fully ensure its role as a shield, normal skin and oily skin. Be careful, because even normal or oily skin can experience dehydration episodes. Indeed, the integrity of the skin barrier can also be put to the test by many external drying factors such as the sun, wind, cold... And without a protective shield, the skin loses its suppleness, softness and tone.
That’s why it is important to nourish the skin barrier with a emollient such as olive oil. Rich in fatty acids, olive oil has indeed nourishing benefits.

Let’s take a closer look at the fatty acids in olive oil and their benefits for the skin:

OLEIC ACID.
It is the main omega-9 fatty acid, oleic acid is distinguished by its nourishing and repairing properties. It thus strengthens the hydrolipid film of the skin on which the effectiveness of the skin barrier depends.


LINOLEIC ACID.
It is the smallest of the omega 6 family, linoleic acid is essential for skin health. It is used in the composition of ceramides, a natural component essential to the integrity of the hydrolipidic film. Applied on the skin, linoleic acid helps to strengthen the skin barrier and promotes the cohesion of skin cells. Result: the loss of water suffered by the skin is limited, it regains softness and flexibility.


PALMITIC ACID.
Palmitic acid, a member of the omega-7 family, is a fatty acid with a composition similar to that of sebum, an essential ingredient in the hydrolipidic film. Applied on the skin, it moisturizes and strengthens the epidermis.

Soothing and nourished, the skin regains its suppleness and tone. Visibly, its appearance is embellished and internally it is protected from dehydration and the signs of time.

THE ANTIOXIDANT BENEFITS OF OLIVE OIL
The benefits of olive oil for the skin are multiple and mainly related to its unique composition. In addition to its nourishing benefits, olive oil is also distinguished by its antioxidant benefits that the skin loves to slow down time. Indeed, olive oil is rich in Vitamin E and polyphenols, two powerful antioxidants essential in the control of radical.

According to the radical theory of aging, the organism ages gradually due to the action of free radicals, unstable and highly reactive molecules. Neutralized by the antioxidants present in the body, free radicals can however be stimulated by external aggressions (pollution, tobacco, stress...). They then create chain reactions that cause premature cell aging. On the skin, the action of free radicals results in premature skin aging. In concrete terms, the skin relaxes and sees the signs of aging appear in the form of wrinkles and fine lines. Applied to the skin, olive oil provides a dose of additional antioxidants to strengthen anti-radical control. Locally, antioxidants will neutralize free radicals and limit their harmful action on the skin. Integrated into an anti-wrinkle treatment, olive oil helps prevent skin aging.

In addition to its antioxidant action, the polyphenol contained in olive oil is also a soothing and restorative bioactive compound. Present in plants and, once pressed, in small quantities in vegetable oils such as olive oil, polyphenols are used in medicine, but also in cosmetics. Applied to the skin, they promote cell regeneration. Dry, irritated skin is soothed, nourished and protected.

THE CLEANSING BENEFITS OF OLIVE OIL
Removing makeup is an important step on which the quality of the skin and the effectiveness of the care applied afterwards depends. Choosing to remove makeup with olive oil is possible. Indeed, among the benefits of olive oil, we also distinguish its cleansing power. Applied to the face, olive oil effectively cleanses without damaging the skin. Impurities are removed and the skin barrier is preserved. That’s why olive oil is suitable for all skin types including sensitive, combination and oily skin. Soft and effective, its oily texture is ideally integrated with two-phase formulas to remove the most stubborn make-up, even waterproof, without leaving a greasy film. And when olive oil has the advantage of being PDO and organic, it’s even better.

The olive tree is a symbol of immortality, and its fruits have been healing people for hundreds of years. Indeed, the benefits of olive oil are numerous on the skin of the face and body.

Applied to the skin, olive oil responds to various problems such as dehydration, the appearance of wrinkles, dull complexion... In addition to its many benefits on the skin, olive oil has the advantage of being appreciated by all skin types, including sensitive skin.
