Olus Oil (Ingredient Explained + Products)

Oil is a hydrophobic (water-repelling) substance that can help regulate sebum production in skincare.

These ingredients have a higher likelihood of clogging pores or triggering breakouts, especially for acne-prone skin. However, skin reactions are individual - what causes breakouts for one person may work fine for another. Patch test if you're concerned.

May feed Fungal Acne

Fungal acne-safe products avoid ingredients that feed Malassezia yeast, the cause of fungal acne. Unlike regular acne, fungal acne appears as small, uniform bumps and won't respond to typical acne treatments. If you suspect fungal acne, consult a dermatologist for proper diagnosis.

Olus oil is a blend of triglycerides derived from vegetable oils. Triglycerides are a type of fat that circulate in your blood. The majority of Olus Oil comes from rapeseed oil.

It has emollient properties and keeps your skin hydrated by creating a barrier that traps moisture in.

Olus oil is also used to give product a nice, smooth texture.

This ingredient may not be fungal-acne safe.
