"Wonderful Product" COMMENTS:  I love Olive Leaf Powder because it has amazing benefits for your skin. On top of containing linoleic acid and antioxidants, it is slightly exfoliating. All the bath & beauty products I make for personal use in my own home contain this product. I recently did a spot test with straight olive leaf powder to see if I could use it in my products at a higher concentration, and experienced no skin staining after 30 minutes, which I was very happy about.

CC Questions And Answers

"What does it mean "approved cosmetic use and our test results". For M&P, it says "no". Does that mean we are not supposed to use this in M&P soap bases? It is listed as an ingredient in the men's aloe and olive M&P recipe. Thank you. " Click Here To View 3 answer(s) Posted By: Heather   |   May 26, 2022 Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer In the product description it states Olive Leaf Powder has played a central role in Mediterranean culture and skincare for thousands of years. It is high in linoleic acid and antioxidants all of which are thought to help with skin tone, appearance, and healing. It is a natural product so you can use as much as you would like. It allows for some fun experimenting!   Posted By: WSP Staff   |   Date: February 04, 2014 Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

I use Olive Leaf Powder in my facial masks at 4%. Linoleic acid is important for maintaining proper sebaceous gland functioning. Using a large amount might cause skin staining in a brownish-green color.   Posted By: Constance   |   Date: May 19, 2014 Was this answer helpful? Yes | No

"What is the recommended measurement when adding Olive Leaf Powder to CP soap? Is this water soluble? Also, can this be added to facial scrubs? Thank You!" Click Here To View 1 answer(s) Posted By: Constance   |   January 02, 2014 Email Me When This Question Gets Answered

Staff Answer We unfortunately do not provide a recommended usage amount for this. If you do an internet search you will most likely find recipes, or recommended usage from other soapers. This powder is safe for soap and cosmetics so it could be used in a scrub, just keep in mind adding too much powder could make the scrub more abrasive.   Posted By: WSP Staff   |   Date: January 08, 2014 Was this answer helpful?
