OUR MISSION: TO BE THE PIONEERS OF THE MEDITERRANEAN DIET FOR THE SKIN
Olivella® was born in 2005 with the first patent for the production of “olive oil soap flakes”, obtained directly from the processing of this noble oil.
Olivella® thus became the first line of soaps and cleansers made in Italy entirely from olive oil. Our patented system does not simply add olive oil at the end of the process: it saponifies this precious ingredient from start to finish. Gentle even on the most sensitive skin, Olivella® then grew from cleansing into skincare.
Behind Olivella® is Umbria Olii International S.p.A., an olive oil company active in the food industry since 1945, with three generations of experience in the production, selection, refining and marketing of oils and fatty acids: the ideal background for a line that brings together tradition and innovation.
Main benefits of Ultra Purified Virgin Olive Oil for topical use:
The quality and quantity of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids typical of olive oil are very similar to the lipids of our cells. Olivella® Ultra Purified Virgin Olive Oil base adapts perfectly to the hydrolipidic layer of all skin types, from face to body, even in the most delicate areas.
