Olus Oil

Olus Oil is the INCI umbrella name for vegetable oil; this is an oil of plant origin made up mostly of fatty acid triglycerides.

The key thing to know is that it's a generic term rather than one specific oil: it refers to a vegetable oil or a blend of vegetable oils so its effect may vary depending on the sources used.

Functionally, it's an emollient that helps soften skin and works as a hydrator to prevent water loss.

This ingredient works well across a wide pH range and has a long shelf life.

Fungal acne:
Because olus oil is an undefined blend, its fungal acne safety depends entirely which oils are used. A Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride-based version would be fungal acne safe while a rapeseed blend will contain longer-chain fatty acids that Malassezia can feed on.
