Di Oleo is a cosmetic brand from Cádiz that works with 100% natural and vegan exfoliants made with olive pits.
We know the exquisiteness of the olive from one of its most prized fruits: olive oil. This elixir of natural origin is very present in the Mediterranean diet, but the olive also has other benefits: its stone is a very good exfoliator for the skin. It helps to remove dead skin cells in a totally sustainable way, as its use avoids the use of microplastics incorporated in some conventional exfoliants. Di Oleo is a cosmetic brand from Cádiz that works with 100% natural and vegan exfoliants that help to regenerate the skin using this star ingredient.
Di Oleo uses 500-micron olive pits to make its products. ‘It is excellent for the prevention of bags and wrinkles on the face, used in a peeling twice a week and acting with other ingredients such as extra virgin olive oil itself or a mixture of other oils such as coconut oil, or essential oils of mint, rosemary or sweet oranges’, explains Filip Van, CEO and founder of Di Oleo. He also assures that the olive pit powder not only removes impurities and dead skin cells, but also helps to prevent sweating.
