The beneficial results of olive oil cannot be matched by any other natural ingredient in its ability to restore, hydrate and protect the skin’s barrier.
OUR SIGNATURE CRETAN OLIVE OIL
The Greeks have been using olive oil to care for their body, skin and hair for centuries – and if it’s been good enough for them for all these years, it must be good enough for everyone else too!
There’s a reason why olive oil is so often called ‘liquid gold’, it’s because the hero natural ingredient is one of the most superior substances on earth, cementing itself as a key pillar in any good beauty routine.
Compared to other oils, it has an extremely similar composition to human skin, allowing it to nourish the skin with essential fatty acids and retain moisture from its surroundings.
The fabulous oil is also bursting in skin, body, and hair-loving nutrients known as triglycerides. These have a high oleic acid content and packed with vitamins and antioxidants for beautifully healthy skin.
If you want to capture the free radicals that cause premature aging, hydrate your skin and enjoy a long-lasting youthful glow, olive oil is far better than any other natural ingredient in doing this.
At Aphrodite, we believe that olive oil is one of Mother Nature’s finest gifts, and we’re proud to trust it as a key ingredient in our entire product collection. We can’t wait for you to experience all its benefits too.
OUR SIGNATURE CRETAN OLIVE OIL
OUR SOOTHING AND RESTORATIVE DONKEY MILK
Donkey milk has been used since ancient times and has been praised ever since for the range of skin and hair benefits it provides.
In fact, the Queen of Egypt, Cleopatra, would bathe in this star ingredient regularly to maintain youthful, beautiful skin. It was also recommended by physicians like Hippocrates for its many health and skin remedies.
Donkey milk is very high in omega fatty acids and vitamins that are proven to regenerate the skin while reducing the earliest signs of premature wrinkles. It’s perfect for people with all skin types, but especially sensitive skin as it’s extremely mild and gentle.
It’s also effective when used on irritated skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema. This is because it’s packed full of skin-loving phospholipids, ceramides and proteins that promote lasting hydration.
We were inspired by ancient beauty rituals to include donkey milk in many of our skin, body and hair care products as it blends beautifully with our Cretan Olive oil to provide additional soothing and hydrating properties.
In our donkey milk skin care range, our products contain a decadent mix of both olive oil and donkey milk that are fused together in advanced formulations with high concentrations of herbal oils, extracts and active ingredients.
The beneficial results of olive oil cannot be matched by any other natural ingredient in its ability to restore, hydrate and protect the skin’s barrier.
