What It Is

Hydrogenated Ethylhexyl Olivate is a naturally derived emollient made from olive oil fatty acids. It is designed to replicate the skin’s natural lipid composition, helping to smooth, soften, and support overall skin health.

Why We Use It

We use Hydrogenated Ethylhexyl Olivate for its ability to deliver long-lasting hydration and improve the skin’s protective barrier. It enhances skin suppleness and provides a luxurious, silky feel in formulations without being heavy or greasy.

Origin & How It’s Made

This ingredient is sourced from olives, where the oil is carefully refined and hydrogenated. Through this process, the fatty acids are modified into a stable, skin-compatible lipid that offers improved absorption and conditioning properties for cosmetic use.
