Olive Oil is an excellent moisturizer effectively protecting and hydrating even the most sensitive skin leaving it soft, supple, and deeply nourished. It is especially effective especially when applied to wet skin when the pores are open-making it ideal for use in soaps. It can act as a second skin barrier for dry, cracked skin in the winter or if you suffer from extremely dry and compromised skin. It contains high concentrations of vitamins A, E & K that revitalize and repair damaged skin cells while fatty acids, polyphenols, and omegas 3 & 6 protect the skin against free radicals. It can revitalize and strengthen the skin’s tonicity and many dermatologists claim that the anti-inflammatory ingredients found in olive oil (triterpenes) aid in wound healing.

Our Eco-Cert Certified Organic extra virgin Olive Oil is fair-traded and hand-processed in the Mediterranean region 40 km outside of Jerusalem. The hearty green olives from which its pressed grow on ancient trees, some over 1000 years old- located on spacious terraces that contain only 60 trees per acre. The fruits are carefully handpicked by small scale farmers that are part of a cooperative of 25 local villages. Harvested in October, the farmers mechanically cold-press the freshly picked olives to preserve their rich phytonutrient content. They closely supervise pressing procedures which are required to produce high-quality olive oil. This includes monitoring the pressing temperature, ensuring cleanliness, and changing the water used for washing the fruits repeatedly. The sustainably sourced and manufactured Olive Oil is then tested and measured for quality and purity.
