Olivem® 1000

Olivem 1000 is a naturally derived, PEG-free emulsifier made from olive oil fatty acids, ideal for creating smooth, stable oil-in-water emulsions in skincare formulations. With its gentle, skin-identical composition, Olivem 1000 is perfect for natural creams, lotions, and moisturisers, delivering a luxurious skin feel without synthetic ingredients.

This self-emulsifying wax not only stabilizes emulsions but also enhances skin hydration and barrier repair, making it especially suitable for sensitive skin and natural cosmetic formulations. It creates light, elegant textures with excellent spreadability and no greasy after-feel.
