Oil is the new face cream, or the aromatic alternative to moisturizer, because it saturates the skin, replenishes lost moisture to plump cheeks, promotes circulation, and creates a barrier that locks hydration in and dryness out. Dermatologists say omega -3s and -6s protect cells, improve turnover and even fade stretchmarks.
According to Linda Alixe Thompson, Co-founder of Olie Biologique, “Argan oil should be packaged in an amber or violet bottle, since the oil is light sensitive. If heat is used during the extraction of the oil from the nut, important nutrients will be lost. To ensure you’re getting the most nutrient-dense product, look for the words ‘cold pressed’ on the label.” Before the eco-friendly trend was in boom, Linda explored the simple products her European mother used at home. She had very few products, well edited and similar to a select wardrobe, with only the effective essentials, no glitzy packaging or disappointing quality. Linda effectively learned to seek out “important pieces”, much like having an eye for classic furniture or an excellent cashmere sweater, and more importantly, she acquired a tasted for craftsmanship when it came to choosing top beauty products. She spent much time around people who were passionate about working with the highest quality ingredients possible and began searching in French pharmacies for a single skin care product that would work for travel-weary skin, and surrounded herself with experts who “shared my same principles.” Linda then sought out a lab with the highest reputation in the industry, yet was still undiscovered in the US. Alas, Olie Biologique was born.
Linda Thompson has a business education from Harvard and speaks fluent French, which helps overcome the challenges of working with the French and Belgian cultures. The biggest challenge for her thus far has been breaking through all the skin care clutter. Linda’s goal is to educate people on how to recognize quality and provide access to some of the best types of skin care products. The oils category is still relatively new, so it is prime time to reach conscious consumers interested in better options. Olie Biologique is all about simplicity, quality, and is a 100% organic bio -active product.
