The olive tree (Olea europaea), from the Oleaceae family, originates in the Mediterranean region. Olive oil is extracted by pressing the olive, an edible, oleaginous fruit. Olive oil has high levels of oleic acid, which has emollient properties. This oil makes the skin soft, supple, and more radiant. It is used in cosmetics for its moisturizing properties, since its composition is very close to that of the skin’s sebum.
