Olive Glycerides, also known as Olive Glycerides, are a formulation made from olive oil. It is a naturalistic blend of tri-, di- and monoglycerides that are extracted from the ripe fruit of the olive. This substance is safe for humans and is widely used in cosmetic and pharmaceutical products. It is highly valued especially for its excellent moisturizing and regenerating properties.

Due to its specific properties, it is included in many skin care products. Olive glycerides are often contained in moisturizing creams, regenerating serums, day and night skin lotions or anti-wrinkle products. Their beneficial effect on the skin is based on their ability to bind water in the epidermis and strengthen the hydro-lipid film, which protects the skin from moisture loss and negative external influences. In the cosmetic industry, they are also used in hair products such as shampoos and conditioners, where they help to regenerate and revitalise the hair fibre. In the pharmaceutical sphere, they are used in the production of ointments and creams for wound and burn healing. Olive glycerides therefore play a key role in many products that help us keep our skin and hair healthy and beautiful.
