Oleo europea Standardization: 7.5% Oleuropein

Olive Leaf Liquid Extract – Standardized is a liquid blend of Olive Leaf Extract and Propanediol.

Olive Leaf Liquid Extract is standardized for Oleuropein (7.5%). Well-known for their protective and strengthening qualities, Oleuropeins are the ideal defence against the abuse of the elements. By hydrating, cleansing, nourishing, calming, preventing damage caused by drying, balancing out the skin tone, and exposing new skin, Oleuropeins improve the texture of the skin and leave it feeling energized. They are ideal for formulating freshening, tonic, and restorative cosmetic products that slow the appearance of the signs of ageing.

With a plant-based origin, Propanediol is a biodegradable and petrochemical-free solvent that is NPA approved, making it an excellent corn sugar-derived alternative to petroleum-based Glycols for hair- and skin care formulations. It offers benefits and functionalities that include improved emollience, enhanced viscosity, non-irritating properties, exceptional sensory characteristics, clarity, and anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, among many more.

The characteristic colour of this botanical extract imbues natural and organic cosmetic formulations with its innate hue. This means that the product colours that were formerly possible to obtain only through the use of artificial and often objectionable constituents can now be achieved through plant-based ingredients that impart not only their beneficial, skin health-enhancing properties but also their individual natural colours. It is strongly recommended that small-batch trials be conducted to determine the dosage required to achieve the desired shade imbued by the extract. The original colour of Olive Leaf Liquid Extract – Standardized is Dark Olive to Dark Brown; however, there is a possibility of this colour-changing, depending on the formulation to which it is added.
