Little pots of gold

We’ve created over 30 skincare products and luxurious scent solutions since we harvested from our first olive grove more than 20 years ago. With a bustling factory, stylish shop front and over 100 stockists across Australia, we’re sure you’re curious to hear what our most popular product is.

 

“It’s our Lip Balm (KS to insert hyperlink),” said Sarah Kirk, Director of Olieve & Olie, and founder Jude’s, daughter. “It’s the product that we find people are most loyal to, due to how well it works at preventing, healing dry and cracked lips. Most of our customers have several of them, one in the car, handbag and at work.”

 

Made with Australian-grown olive oil and all-natural ingredients – no palm oil in sight. Olive oil is high in Vitamin E and antioxidants, which naturally provide anti-aging benefits. Olive oil is the closest natural oil to our skin's own oil and therefore is easily absorbed, which makes it the best oil to apply to our skin.

 

Alongside our hero ingredient, olive oil, another notable natural ingredient is manuka beeswax. It aids in healing the skin and carries antiviral, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties that are essential for fighting chapped skin and bacterial infections which tend to affect us most in the dryer months. It helps by forming a protective wall by sealing in moisture in our skin without smothering and clogging up the pores. Thanks to the humectant found in beeswax, it ‘attracts’ water, so when you apply our lip balm, it will attract water molecules which helps to keep skin hydrated over time. Beeswax also provides a good source of vitamin A, which helps to exfoliate and rejuvenate your skin. This natural skin superfood helps to soothe itchy, dry, or sensitive skin as it’s an anti-allergenic. The fragrance can be described as a natural honey scent which blends perfectly when we create our Vanilla and Mint scents in our lush Lip Balm (KS to insert hyperlink).

 

Our recipes are based on ancient practices, making our products very traditional and highly effective. Our philosophy is to use raw and unrefined ingredients, and where possible we source directly from the producer. Thanks to our ethos to use such produce, all of our products are suitable for sensitive skin, and conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, rosacea, people going through chemotherapy, pregnancy and mature skin.

 

Packaged in a stylish mini glass jar, our Lip Balms are a great base for lipstick, as they help keep the lipstick on your lips for longer. It’s also excellent as an under-eye cream to help reduce puffiness around the eye. This product is referred to as a ‘little pot of liquid gold’ by our customers thanks to the nourishing blend of organic butters, waxes and oils. Thanks to Vitamin E, this lip balm will soothe, protect, and assist in healing dry and damaged lips in Mint or Vanilla (KS to insert hyperlink).
