Discovered more than five thousand years ago, olive oil has been revered as an ancient European beauty treatment. The external application of this prized oil creates soft, supple skin which appears to defy the rules of time. When used on the hair and cuticles, brittleness and coarse irregularities become silken and smooth.
The science behind olive oils' heavenly qualities extends far beyond the aesthetic. It is saturated in antioxidant vitamins A and E and polyphenol compounds that love nothing more than to scavenge and eliminate the free radicals that break down our cell membranes (free radical damage results in aging and cellular mutations that are not healthy).
