About us
With the sun burning hot in the sky, a young couple dreamt of a natural cosmetics line that would stand out thanks to the properties of its pure ingredients. The first letters to the name, The White Olive, by serendipity, spelled two. They pictured a majestic olive tree with golden green leaves and a small white crop, beautiful and unique, setting it apart from the other trees in the grove. It would be their tree and with it, they would enter the world of cosmetics. Shortly thereafter, these thoughts morphed into something real. Careful research yielded recipes, which could travel those who used them to the beautiful places where the elixirs were first concocted. To that beach where all you can hear is the melody of the sea, singing in synch with a gentle breeze. To an exotic forest. To a cool balcony, with an aromatic white tea. To an olive grove in full bloom, that thrives at the end of a cold winter. The White Olive is the daughter company of Gaia Kallisti, which means Beautiful Earth. Our experience with extra virgin olive oil and other agricultural goods, such as pure raw honey, helps set our products apart. Guided by the old saying, preached by our grandmothers, “do not put on your skin something that you wouldn’t put in your stomach”, we created the first ever line of Cosmetics that would use organic Agoureleo as a base. It is this ingredient that catapults our cosmetics to the next realm of body and hair care experiences. Also known as “first class extra virgin olive oil”, it comes from the extraction of early harvest green olives. Agoureleo has been labeled superfood, thanks to each high anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Agoureleo is very rich in polyphenoles, provitamin A and vitamin E. We combined this elixir with other, equally beneficial and complimentary, natural ingredients and created a truly unique line of products. We combine modern age methods and knowledge with the traditions that have been passed down from generation to generation. From mothers, to daughters. From a farm, to a lab, remaining always authentic to our natural roots Our products are kind to your skin, the environment and to all animals. Aside from ensuring that all our ingredients are ethically harvested, that our products are organic, we are also advocates against animal cruelty and take a stand against all animal testing.
