Velona USDA Certified Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil is used frequently for its distinctive flavor and aroma. The term extra virgin is used because this oil is removed from the first pressing of the fruit of the olive, not the kernel or the pit, by a mechanical pressing operation. This process does not involve heating, solvent extraction, or any other chemical process. IMPORTANT! We sell our products by weight, not by volume! That is, different kind of oils might have different volume while the same bottle size and weight as they have different viscosity.

Yes! there is only one ingredient: 100% Pure & Natural USDA Certified Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Olea Europaea). Q: What does "extra virgin" mean? Extra virgin olive oil is produced through the natural crushing of olives without heat or chemicals to maintain the natural antioxidants, polyphenols, and flavors. Q: Is green olive oil better? Color is not an indicator of olive oil quality or flavor. Quality olive oils range in color from pale yellow to dark green depending on variables like the olive variety, where it's grown, climate and harvest timing. What are carrier oils? “Carrier Oil” is a term generally used in the contexts of aromatherapy and cosmetic recipes for natural skin and hair care. Carrier oils and essential oils are made from plants. Carrier oils are used to dilute essential oils and “carry” them to your skin. That’s because essential oils are potent and can cause irritation when applied directly to your skin. A Carrier Oil is a vital aspect of an aromatherapy massage or a natural cosmetic such as a soap, bath oil, body oil, cream, lip balm, lotion, or other moisturizer, as it can affect the usefulness of the massage and the color, scent, therapeutic properties, and shelf life of the final product, respectively. Most carrier oils are unscented or lightly scented and don’t interfere with an essential oil’s therapeutic properties. They may be used alone or with other oils to nourish your skin. Cold Pressing It is a chemical-free process that involves placing the nuts or seeds in a horizontal press that has an 'expeller,' which is a rotating screw. The screw drives the nuts and seeds through a barrel-shaped hollow and compresses them until the high pressure squeezes out the oil, which seeps out through the opening, while the ‘meal,’ or the debris, remains inside the barrel. The oil is then filtered, resulting in the finished product. Due to the absence of solvent residues in Cold Pressing, the outcome is cleaner, purer oils that are higher in natural colors and scents.

However, scientific research has proved this false and tells us that high quality extra virgin olive oil that has not been refined or blended with other oils is, in fact, highly stable when heated. It not only has a high smoke point, but most importantly, it does not break down into harmful compounds like other oils when heated at high temperatures. Antioxidants The natural extraction method and minimal refinement ensure extra virgin olive oil retains most of its nutrients and antioxidants. EVOO contains over 30 different types of phenolic compounds – powerful antioxidants that protect your body against free radicals. Free radicals are molecules responsible for aging and cell damage. Rich in Monounsaturated Fats 14% of the extra virgin olive oil is saturated fat, and 11% is polyunsaturated fat, including omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. However, the majority of the fatty acid in olive oil is oleic acid – a monounsaturated fat that makes up 73% of the total oil content. Since monounsaturated fats are resistant to high heat, it makes extra virgin olive oil a good choice for cooking (extra virgin olive oil has a smoke point of 376F). Moisturizing Like many other oils, olive oil locks in moisture. By itself, it doesn’t do much in the way of moisturizing your skin, but it works to seal in water or your moisturizer. The best way to incorporate it into your routine is to apply it on top of your moisturizer, so it will lock in the moisture from that.
