Functions:
Hydroxytyrosol is a polyphenolic compound derived from olive leaves that is rich in antioxidant and
anti-inflammatory properties. It is widely used in skin care products and can fulfil a variety of roles,

improve the water-oil balance of the skin. It reduces dryness, roughness and flaking of the skin
and makes the skin softer and smoother.
4. Inhibit tyrosinase activity: Reduce the production of melanin, widely used in skin care products for
whitening and lightening function, effectively reduce hyperpigmentation and pigmentation, brighten
skin tone.
5. Promote collagen synthesis: It can stimulate the synthesis of collagen in the skin and increase
the elasticity and firmness of the skin. It can reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines and enhance the youthfulness
