The leaf, not the oil
Olive leaf extract is a different proposition from olive oil. The leaf is where the polyphenol oleuropein concentrates, and cosmetic formulas use it as an antioxidant rather than as an emollient — which is why it shows up in serums and treatment textures instead of in balms.
Alastin leans on it hardest, in Regenerating Skin Nectar, C-Radical Defense Antioxidant Serum and ReFORM & RePAIR Complex. SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Gel and SkinBetter Science sunbetter TONE SMART SPF 75 round out the group.
Does olive leaf extract replace a vitamin C serum?
No. Botanical antioxidants and vitamin C work through different mechanisms, and routines that take antioxidants seriously generally use both, with the vitamin C in the morning.

Several of these are formulas we recommend around in-office treatments; ask our providers before layering two antioxidant serums in the same routine.
