Olive trees represent a symbol of immortality due to their extraordinary longevity. They were commonly known as a symbol of peace, goodness and purity since ancient times. Olive was first used as a cosmetic ingredient in ancient Egypt.
Olive fruits contain polyphenolic components (gallic tannins), iridoids and flavonoids. Especially the gallotannins show strong anti-oxidant properties due to their scavenging effects on free oxygen radicals.
Radical scavenging protection is an important supportive tool to prevent early signs of UV damage to hair fibres and skin.
