Olive leaf extract

Composition:

Olive leaf extract has a large number of bioactive ingredients (polyphenols, flavonoids, vitamins), of which the most potent are the antioxidants oleuropein and hydroxytyrosol.

The synergistic action of these active ingredients protects very efficiently against free radicals and oxidative stress. 

The extract also has a calming, antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effect.

Olive leaf extract works well in formulations for sensitive skin, sun care/after sun and hair care.
