Listen to me ~ if you believe none of the other reviews I am here to tell you this product is a miracle! I rarely write letters to companies but this one did it for me. I had to let them know they've got the right stuff!

2.0 out of 5 stars So disappointed
I searched Amazon high and low for a moisturizer without toxic ingredients, and since so many manufacturers don't include ingredients on their product descriptions I was unable to make an educated decision. I am hoping to have another baby and recent studies suggest that women who are pregnant, or trying to get pregnant, should avoid retinyl palmitate. I went with...

5.0 out of 5 stars Affordable Luxury in A Tiny Bottle!, March 29, 2010
This review is from: Olivella All Natural Virgin Olive Oil Moisturizer From Italy (50ml) 1.69 Fluid Ounces (Health and Beauty)
Listen to me ~ if you believe none of the other reviews I am here to tell you this product is a miracle! I rarely write letters to companies but this one did it for me. I had to let them know they've got the right stuff!

I am 42 and have had combination skin that gets much oilier during the warmer months. This product is one that I have used for two years now exclusively as my night oil and it has become a mainstay in my cabinet.

Here's the trick, though. After cleansing my face (I also use Olivella bar soap) I leave my face dripping wet. One short pump and those few drops glide over my entire face, my ears AND the front and back of my neck. It doesn't take much at all but a moist face just isn't enough. Just massage it in as your face air dries and the moisture left behind is heavenly. Not the slightest bit oily at all. And don't skip your lips. No fine lines around mine and my lipstick proves it - no more creeping into fine lines around my lips. They're smooth now.

I have a tendency to be a night owl so I often don't wait until before bed to apply this wonderful elixir. If I know I'll be working late into the night, I'll apply it in the early evening and allow it to work overtime.

What's ironic is that when I first started using the soap, I couldn't justify the cost of this moisturizer. It seemed far too much for such a little bit. But when I consider how much cream I had to scoop out of jars over the years, this is now an actually very inexpensive product with so much promise. I assure you whatever your complexion, your skin will thank you for adding this to the regimen.

I no longer use an eye cream, no special neck cream at all - all I need is Olivella and my skin thanks me every day. Finally a product worthy of a letter and a review. Do try it and again, do not apply to merely moist or dry skin. Wetter is better and as an extra treat, when you're done, rub the residue into your cuticles. Even my manicurist is shocked over how I no longer have raggedy cuticles that I've suffered since forever.

Miracle in a bottle for sure!

I get it at Harmon's in my neighborhood for around $15 and change.

4.0 out of 5 stars Overall a GREAT product, June 25, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Olivella All Natural Virgin Olive Oil Moisturizer From Italy (50ml) 1.69 Fluid Ounces (Health and Beauty)
First and foremost what i love about this product is that it's natural, is not used in animal testing, and has a very low toxicity rate (according to ewg.org) with no cancer causing chemicals, unlike most of the common moisturizers out there. All it takes is a few drops to cover the face and works best after a shower. The scent is moderately strong soap-type smell but will not stay with you for long, although some may not be pleased with it. It absorbs into the skin rather quickly so your face does not seem oily.



I find Olivella is best used overnight because when i woke up i had a fresh young glow to my skin and was pleased with the results. Some should be advised that you may be allergic to the ingredients and do a test before hand. Even if you are not allergic, when i first used the product my skin did break out but i had remembered reading somewhere how since the it can actually help normalize your skin that breakouts are sometimes a common thing in the beginning so i continued to use it. I'm glad i did because it definitely proves it's worth keeping.



I also have mix combo of oily/dry skin so i try to focus on the dry areas while using benzoyl peroxide on any areas that seem they are about to break out. I found this combination to work better than anything i have ever tried so now i can proudly say i have finally found my secret to healthy skin. Hopefully this may help others!

I have used Olivella moisturizer for 2+ yrs now, and I have received many compliments on the state of my skin. I am well into my 50s, and most people think I am closer to 40! It's also great for my hands.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is the best!!, December 16, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I have been using Olivella for a couple of weeks now and it makes my skin look and feel great. It is hard to describe how this oil feels. It is not greasy and almost has a dry, velvety sort of feel to it, while still being an oil.

I even found another perfect use for it. After I shower, I put it on my face and the residue that is left over I lightly rub over the outside strands of my wet hair and then blow dry. I have to say that this is better than any "frizz-free" hair serum that I have ever used. My hair is VERY fine, slightly wavy and frizzy and Olivella makes my hair less frizzy after blow-drying and more manageable and amazingly soft & shiny, but WITHOUT weighing it down. Truly a miracle for my hair type.

DENISE CASCONE (LINDENHURST, NEW YORK United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Olivella All Natural Virgin Olive Oil Moisturizer From Italy (50ml) 1.69 Fluid Ounces (Health and Beauty)
I had a severe allergic reaction to laundry detergent. Itchy, dry, raised, rashes ALL over my body. When I realized It was the detergent, I stopped it immediately and although the symptoms subsided, after a week, I still had severely irritated patches of skin in my bra and panty areas. Because I cannot take Antihistamines, everything I tried had to be topical and NOTHING helped. After three weeks of torture, and no logic to support why Olivella would work when the prescribed creams didn't,I gave it a try. WELL, after just one day the itching was gone. After three days, the rough dry areas were back to normal color and by the end of the week, all symptoms were completely gone. I've used a lot of olive oil products but the virgin oil moisturizer is by far, a must-have.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heaven, September 7, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This product is hands-down the best moisturizer I or my family members have ever used. We are somewhat new to it, and yet we're sold. One family member just had surgery on her face for skin cancer. I sent her some, since it better for you than all those items with so many harsh chemicals. I figured she had enough of facial harshness for a bit. She loves this stuff. It is helping to make her face feel comforted and soft, yes, even at the scar. I thought it would feel oily, but after the initial oily feel, it just simply sinks into your skin to leave it feeling velvety soft.

This review is from: Olivella All Natural Virgin Olive Oil Moisturizer From Italy (50ml) 1.69 Fluid Ounces (Health and Beauty)
I love love LOVE this moisterizer! I have oily/combination skin still prone to breakouts even though I'm in my late 40's. This product makes my skin feel moisterized & dewy with out feeling oily. My breakouts went away on their own - without use of other products. I also haven't had any further breakouts since I started using it. I put it on every night before bed and my skin has never been softer. I also apply it to my neck and have noticed the loose looking wrinkles that come with getting older have vanished. I would recommend this product to everyone. It is a miracle in a bottle!

5.0 out of 5 stars The First Moisturizer That Really Works, November 14, 2009
By 
ladyfingers (Northern Michigan) - See all my reviews
(VINE VOICE)   
I bought a bottle of Olivella from the reduced bin at a local store. One might think applying an oil might be too heavy or cause break-outs. Not so--the directions suggest combining a very small squirt with a bit of water or while your face is still wet from washing. The end product is a wonderfully smooth and soft face. My skin showed a marked difference in as little as a week. Most moisturizers clog my pores--not once has this ever happened while using Olivella. It smells nice, lasts a long time and most important, it's the best moisturizer I have EVER used (I'm 55 and have tried lots of 'em). I've always used olive oil soap for face washing with good results, but never thought to use an olive oil based moisturizer. Now that I have, I'm hooked. Needless to say, I bought every bottle from that reduce bin.

This is a wonderful skin moisturizer and seems to work away wrinkles and crepe-y skin around my neck and cleavage.
