Hey there! 💜
As you know by now, I’m the type who always scans the ingredients of anything, and ends up on research tangents until 2 AM. 😝 So if you’re curious about what makes Oleia different from the dozens of other “natural oils” out there, here’s my very enthusiastic deep dive. 🧪
What Are Carrier Oils and Why Do They Matter in Essential Oil Blends?
Most people focus on the scent—the essential oils like lavender, peppermint, frankincense—but those are just half the story. The unsung heroes? Carrier oils. These are the base oils that “carry” essential oils into your skin (and deeper into the tissues) safely. They don’t just dilute. The right ones nourish, hydrate, soothe, and actually amplify the effects of the blend.
In Oleia, the carrier oils aren’t just fillers, they are carefully chosen by a biochemist with benefits of their own. In fact, the base blend, ⚪Oleia Pure Oil⚪, can stand on it’s own. 😉
Why Is Olive Oil Used in Oleia Blends?
I used to think olive oil was just for pasta. 🫒 But turns out, it’s one of the most skin-loving oils out there—especially extra virgin olive oil, which is rich in oleic acid, vitamin E, and antioxidants. It helps calm inflammation, lock in moisture, and even supports cell regeneration.
What Makes Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) So Effective in Oleia?
VCO the GOAT it is. ✨ It’s deeply moisturizing and full of lauric acid, which has natural antimicrobial powers. But here’s what I noticed: unlike other coconut oils I’ve tried, Oleia’s version absorbs like a dream. It’s not sticky and doesn’t just sit on top of your skin, if you know what I mean. Just that clean, nourished feeling, perfect for daily use—especially when my skin’s feeling dry or stressed out.
What Are Cetylated Fatty Acids and What Do They Do?
Okay, now for the science-y part: cetylated fatty acids (CFAs). These are plant-based fats that are specially processed to increase bioavailability (translation: your body actually absorbs them). The standout here is cetyl myristoleate, which has been studied for its ability to reduce pain, inflammation, and stiffness—especially in joints and muscles. And yes, this is what helps us feel relief faster with Oleia Topical Oils. 🙌🏻
They’re also the reason why Oleia doesn’t need camphor or menthol to be effective. It’s relief without the fear of using too much of it. 😌
What Does Pomegranate Seed Oil Do for the Skin?
If your skin could take a multivitamin, it would be this. Pomegranate seed oil is rich in omega-5 fatty acids and polyphenols, which help brighten, protect, and rejuvenate the skin. It’s known to improve elasticity and fight off early signs of aging, so it’s no surprise that Oleia feels good for the skin, even after repeated use. It’s not just for pain, it’s a check towards skincare. ✔️
Why Is Moringa Oil Included in Oleia’s Formula?
Malunggay the multi-tasking phenom we see in our (or our neighbor’s!) backyard. Moringa oil is rich in vitamin A, C, and E, and it’s been used for centuries in traditional healing for its anti-inflammatory and skin-repairing properties. I love knowing it’s part of Oleia’s blend because it supports healing on a cellular level. 🧬
Is Oleia Really Different from Other Essential Oils?
5000% yes! Oleia isn’t just about smelling nice or gliding over the skin. It’s formulated to deliver nutrients and anti-inflammatory compounds where they’re needed most. The blend is the real star here. Every ingredient has a purpose, and they work together in a way that feels balanced, thoughtful, and… well, effective.
Nothing harsh, no fillers too. No “cooling” agents that just distract you from the pain. 👀 Just well formulated plant oils that get to work.

I’ve tried a lot of oils. Like, an insane amount. But Oleia stands out—because it doesn’t just sit on my skin, it’s not thin or greasy, in fact it feels luxurious upon massaging. It works. The relief is real. The ingredients are clean. And the blend is amazing. 🎖️
Whether I’m dealing with period cramps, back pain, or just one of those long, emotionally-draining days when I need to reset—I reach for Oleia. And now that you know what’s in it, maybe you will too. Grab a bottle now—or maybe 10? 😝
Show me your bottle and I’ll show you mine? 'Til next time! 🙋🏻♀️
