Benefit This luxurious Bioactive Face Balm with the unique powerful ingredient Hydroxytyrosol deeply nourishes even the driest skin and leaves it with a silky-soft feeling. It‘s based on the polyphenol of the olive tree, which, thanks to its strong antioxidant and regenerating properties, balances uneven skin texture and counteracts skin stress. Application Apply gently to face, neck, and décolleté in the morning and/or evening after cleansing, and massage in. Avoid the eye area. Also ideal as a regenerating night treatment. What do we stand for? We never put water first, as is the case with traditional emulsions. Our emulsion builds up entirely without water, which is why the Olea Europaea (olive) leaf cell elixir comes first for us. However, water may be contained elsewhere in our INCIs as a breakdown from other ingredients. Our formulas never change, even as nature does. In over 20 years of creating products in synergy with nature, our formulas have never changed. Every year, the wisdom of nature brings us a new harvest with its own unique variations; an olive or apple harvest will taste a little different each year. And because we choose to work with bioactive raw materials instead of refined materials, these natural variations in taste, color, and scent are an authentic part of our products.Any fragrances contained in our INCIs are a composition of essential oils. According to the EU Cosmetics Regulation, these must be labeled under the generic term "perfume" or "fragrance" in the INCIs and plant allergens must be shown separately. In principle, OLIVEDA does not use synthetic fragrances. Our products are vegan, except for those made with honey from our own honeybees, or with collagen peptides or goat milk powder.Our products are part of our Holistic Cycle. We protect overgrown mountain olive trees and extract from them the unique and most powerful naturally occurring antioxidant hydroxytyrosol with which we create transformations of the skin and the entire lifestyle, and the water we do not use in our products we bring to the people of Africa by building water wells. Our products are made in Germany with the raw materials from our own organically Eco-Certified mountain olive trees. Our products are bioactive and organic. Our products are cruelty-free.
