What is OliveM 1000?

It is a natural, vegetable-based PEG-free emulsifier and thickener derived from olives. Often used as an emulsifier and a thickener alongside other ingredients, its benefits include its pliable/spreadable creamy texture without a soapy effect. OliveM 1000 is a great option when you need to combine oil and water and do not want to use extra thickening/stabilising agents.

What are the benefits of using OliveM 1000 on your skin?

As a complex combination of fatty acids, it can form liquid crystal structures that mimic the lipids of skin. It provides a deep moisturising effect on the skin without a soapy residue.

What are the benefits of using OliveM 1000 on your hair?

Additional to its many benefits for the skin, it can also be used in haircare formulations and is an ideal ingredient in leave-in conditioners.

History and origins of OliveM 1000
