Melon & Starfish Introduces : OLIVARRIER

We love Olivarrier’s philosophy – Less but Better -- creating skincare that removes unnecessary additives, resulting in products that everyone can trust and use with confidence. And its name, Oliva (Latin for Olive) + Barrier - stands for its mission: feeling relieved with worry-free skincare.

ABOUT OLIVARRIER

Olivarrier believes in creating the skincare of tomorrow with a minimalist approach. Packed with nourishing, non-irritating ingredients such as squalane, botanical oils, and ceramides, this brand focuses on strengthening the skin barrier and catering to every skin type – especially those with sensitive skin.

The packaging of the line deserve particular attention – very neat and minimalist it shows all the information you need, including pH. Clinic researches showed that mildly acid environment is the best for our skin – it helps your skin to develop natural barrier as well as prevents the appearance of acne.

If you are concerned about ethical production – every product from Olivarrier is vegan and cruelty-free.

SAFE INGREDIENTS

Say no to controversial chemical ingredients, and yes to natural, healthy skin. Using only plant-derived ingredients, their beautiful and effective formulas provide a fresh, moisturising feeling.

While creating honest and reliable skincare solutions that keep in mind raw material acquisition processes, safe production processes, and the environmental impact, the brand wants to help make better and informed choices too. Olivarrier team cooperate with several non-profit / consumer protection groups around the world, like EWG in the United States and the British Vegan Society. Canada's cert clean, European COSMOS, etc.

WHY DUAL MOIST?

Here we will get a little technical - Meet the Dual Moist line of Olivarrier.

Without adequate oil content, moisturizers can weaken the skin barrier and cause excessive sebum and dryness. Dual Moist helps to fill your skin with an adequate amount of moisture, resulting in a stronger skin barrier.

DUAL MOIST = Micro HA + Olive Squalane

Olivarrier simplifies beauty routines by incorporating plant-based hyaluronic acid and 100% pure plant-based Olive Squalene. Both ingredients create a substance which is similar to skin lipids which helps to deliver maximum absorption power.

Squalane: Skin protection, moisture loss prevention

Tocopherol: Tocopherol is a class of vitamin E compounds naturally found in many different sources, such as oils, nuts, and vegetables. Tocopherols have antioxidant activity.

This product contains the traditional antioxidant method of Polynesia, relying on fresh Tiare Tahiti flowers, picked at bud stage and soaked in refined coconut oil. A precise proportion of flowers and oil is left soaking for 12 days, then resting for 24 hours, before being filtered, purified and enriched with a natural antioxidant (tocopherol solution).

Vitamin E tocopherol prevents the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids, skin aging and moisture loss.

Organic Centella: Organic Centella asiatica, for anti-inflammationand soothing

Centella asiatica extract is obtained from leaves and stems of centella that are grown organically in cultivated land for 3 years without chemical fertilizer. This helps to calm irritated skin.

Centella asiatica extract is generally high in skin-benefiting phytochemicals. It’s rich in vitamins C, A, B1 and B2 as well as niacin and carotene, which combine to help brighten skin and fight the visible signs of premature ageing.

Micro hyaluronic acid: Moisture supply, elasticity recovery
