October is Eczema Awareness Month: Embrace Soothing Solutions

Olivespa's Founder: Inspired by Nature

The story of Olivespa begins with a profound respect for the nourishing benefits of natural ingredients. As the mother of 5, Brenda Rea was always concerned with keeping her children healthy and happy. When sensitive skin and dry Arizona days left some of her kids with mild eczema, she researched natural dry skin remedies and discovered that olive oil was the answer. Olive oil, a time-honored remedy, is rich in antioxidants, vitamins A and E, and healthy fats, which make it incredibly moisturizing and gentle on sensitive skin. This legacy of using pure, simple ingredients is what drives Olivespa's mission today—to offer skincare solutions that are safe, natural, and effective for even the most delicate skin, including those with eczema.

Why Natural Ingredients Matter for Eczema

People with eczema are often sensitive to harsh chemicals and artificial fragrances commonly found in commercial skincare products. Olivespa is committed to avoiding these ingredients, focusing instead on formulations that are free from parabens, sulfates, and synthetic dyes. Every product is thoughtfully crafted to support skin health, using only the finest plant-based oils, essential oils, and natural botanicals. Here’s why these ingredients are a game-changer for eczema-prone skin:

  • Olive Oil: A hero ingredient in many of our products, olive oil offers deep hydration, locking in moisture and creating a protective barrier on the skin to prevent further irritation.
  • Lavender Oil: Known for its calming and anti-inflammatory properties, lavender oil can help soothe inflamed eczema patches while also promoting healing.
  • Shea Butter: Found in our body butters and balms, shea butter is incredibly nourishing, offering relief from dry, cracked skin, and it’s rich in fatty acids that help restore the skin's natural barrier.

Eczema Relief with Olivespa

For those looking to manage eczema flare-ups, Olivespa offers a range of products that are gentle enough for everyday use:

  • Nourishing Body Oil: A blend of rich olive oil and soothing essential oils that provide hydration and relief for itchy, dry skin.
  • Lavender Body Butter: This ultra-hydrating butter contains olive oil and shea butter to deeply moisturize while lavender oil calms irritated skin, making it ideal for sensitive areas affected by eczema.
  • Olivespa Baby Collection: Babies with eczema can benefit from our gentle and soothing baby products, free of harsh chemicals and made with the purest ingredients to keep their skin soft and healthy.
