The European Union in the Middle East

This is one of the many opportunities that have allowed the Spanish-based brand to position itself in international markets and become a benchmark product. The recognition has thrilled the four sisters as the project shows that their know-how transcends borders. “It is a campaign that lasts several months and is present in various countries in the Middle East. We have just completed some of the actions in the United Arab Emirates. In the upcoming weeks, we will continue in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait and there are numerous promotional activities on the agenda to continue. There are already numerous occasions, events and participations in which the European Union has trusted in Alevoo and for us it is a great satisfaction for the recognition of our work, know-how and unique EVOOs”.

Quality and exquisiteness

Their success in that and other European Union events is related to several factors. One of them is their knowledge. “The authenticity of our products, the transfer of know-how from generation to generation, which means that the know-how makes a unique product available to consumers. Something that has been passed on to avoid losing our traditions”. The quality of its EVOOs has also been relevant, recognized for being early harvested, with unique organoleptic characteristics and exceptional nutritional values.

In addition to all the aforementioned factors, there is the factor of safety: “the strict safety and quality standards of our EVOOs are extremely important. That means that Alevoo’s consumers can be truly reassured and confident about the extra virgin olive oil they consume”, it is pointed out from the firm. For the EU, it has also been an added-value factor that the EVOOs of this company are of the ‘royal’ and “picual” varieties with Protected Designation of Origen, being varieties native to the Sierra de Cazorla Natural Park. “We have an extraordinary environment in which our ancestral olive trees serve as inspiration for us generation after generation. Those unique conditions and characteristics are endorsed by the Regulatory Council of the Protected Designation of Origin D.O.P. Sierra de Cazorla, which is essential to have the support of the European Union. We also have organic certification”, it is claimed by Carolina Nieto, co-founder of the firm.

Alevoo details

As Carolina explains, Alevoo has played a leading role in other corporate and European Union events. “In addition to collaborations in events of diverse nature, Alevoo has extensive expertise in corporate gifts. We care of every detail and present each product in an elegant and exclusive way customizing it to meet each client’s needs,” she explains. Both the content and the container matter for the firm, so an elegant and sophisticated packaging has been developed to protect the product itself while enhancing the consumer experience. Every detail counts. 

Among the immediate plans, there is only room to keeping the work that the firm has been immersed in for years and to continue their family’s legacy: “Our next step is keep working hard and putting our heart, soul and all the love in the world into what we do. We will continue moving forward. The road is long and we will contribute to make the society in which we live a better one: helping citizens improve their quality lives and their happiness, with a well-balanced diet, with healthy habits and with a positive impact on the environment and biodiversity. We care for citizens, for our consumers and, of course, for the environment. We will continue working in the same direction,” concludes Carolina Nieto.

The best extra virgin olive oil

Precisely because no two extra virgin olive oils are the same, Alevoo’s extra virgin olive oils, recently recognized by the European Union, have triumphed both inside and outside our borders for being: organic, early harvested, single variety ‘Royal’ and single variety ‘Picual’, with a high content of monounsaturated fats, antioxidants and vitamins A, D, E and K.  To recognize a good ‘liquid gold’ without tasting it, it is important to follow Carolina Nieto’s advice. “First of all, we must pay attention to the EVOO with “its name and surname”: we have to identify an “extra virgin olive oil” (not a virgin olive oil and not an olive oil). And within the extra virgin olive oils, always look for an EVOO from an early harvest, if possible single variety, with a unique type of olive in order to maintain the organoleptic and physicochemical characteristics of that variety”. 

Alevoo meets all those requirements and that is shown on its labelling. We recommend focusing on the label. It is important to pay attention to the EVOO legend, which reads “extra virgin olive oil” and which details the definition required by law, in which the olive oil must be of a superior category, obtained from olives and only by mechanical means.

Protected designation of origin

When deciding whether to buy a premium extra virgin olive oil, its origin also plays an important role, so it is important to pay attention to the certified seal of the Protected Designation of Origin. “A P.D.O. certified EVOO guarantees the origin and quality of the oil. Consider as well the organic certificate, not only a mention of the organic EVOO, but also the organic seal-certificate that endorses it. In our case it is the European and CAAE seal”.

A very healthy product

Nutritional values make the difference among olive oils, because no, they are not all the same. There is currently a misunderstanding that all EVOOs provide you with the same benefits and nutritional values. That has nothing to do with reality. The brand itself also plays a role and it is the factor that can give consumers the most confidence. We recommend to know who is behind each company, that security of knowing who is putting the product on the market. Seriousness, thoroughness and professionalism have to take precedence nowadays. In addition to brand awareness and image, the company’s official web site should tell us who it is.

There is nothing more gratifying than to enjoy eating something healthy, so in Alevoo we claim the importance of an extra virgin olive oil with excellent properties. What makes Alevoo EVOO special is all of the above and, especially what cannot be identified on paper, that is the tasting of EVOO. The unique flavor of our EVOOs, their fresh and natural aroma that will intoxicate your senses from the moment you open the bottle, and a delicate, elegant texture on the palate, will make your recipes and food spectacular, and will imbue you with that freshness and elegance when you enjoy them.

Alevoo and the olive tree

“The olive tree is the origin of our existence, the starting point of the olive. It is so important to us that we have even incorporated it into our logo,” explain the four sisters who found Alevoo. From the very beginning, the founders of the premium and organic extra virgin olive oil company understood that their logo had to send a message, it had to speak. That is why they created a map of the world from an olive right in Spain -the starting point- and olive tree branches and leaves forming the entire World as a unique olive tree. “An olive tree that is a symbol of peace, resistance and renewal, prosperity, brightness and happiness, and which is also pure generosity, providing us with the olives from which we obtain the best juices to make our extra virgin olive oils and all our organic products,” the brand explains.

Natural decoration

In addition to the World Olive Tree Day, Alevoo wants to analyze the impact that that tree has on societies, beyond its contribution in terms of food. Known as ‘Olea europaea’, that species is part of the culture of countless Mediterranean countries and has become a new object of desire far from the countryside. In cities, decorators and interior designers are appealing to natural inspiration, positive environmental impact and wilder aesthetics by incorporating olive trees into urban gardens, indoors and outdoors.

With simple care, acceptable size and a very welcoming look, olive trees have become a big trend in private and public spaces. Reputed designers such as Nate Berkus, known for their successful minimalist character, confess to being great lovers of these trees converted for interiors. From millenary proposals, to accompany outdoor environments, to small formats in pots or pruned along the lines of a bonsai, they triumph in spaces of all styles which receive six hours of direct light every day.

As decorative objects at home, olive trees make certain corners of the house more elegant, which would otherwise look drab. In combination with other natural materials such as jute, linen, clay, raffia, ceramics and esparto grass, olive trees are the perfect companions for country houses or any magazine-worthy living rooms everywhere. Over time, olive trees have also become highly acclaimed centerpieces in renowned hotels and restaurants around the world.

“Numerous decorative uses are being made of olive trees all over the world. In roundabouts, parks, avenues and rest areas. There is no doubt that it is spectacular indoors and outdoors. We understand that nowadays, it has become a viral phenomenon. We travel around the world and, beyond our environment, the Sierra de Cazorla Natural Park, we have found olive trees in restaurants of cosmopolitan cities of Spain, in museums in several countries of Europe and Middle East, and even at the feet of the tallest building of the world “Burj Khalifa” in Dubai, the company concludes.

Taking care of your health during Christmas and Festive Season

In addition to controlling meals, opting for healthy snacks, avoiding alcohol and including fruit and vegetables on every plate, there are other less common tips that are worth paying attention to. “The consumption of quality foods with high nutritional value, including extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), provides us with better tolerance and digestion of those foods”, says the expert. Alevoo EVOO, one of the most awarded and recognized EVOOs in Spain and abroad – the European Union has once again chosen it to represent Spain as part of a campaign in the Middle East – is one of those superfoods to overcome the impact of this festive season.

“Our EVOO, rich in vitamin E and oleic acid, has anti-inflammatory, soothing and digestive properties, which help us to digest those foods better. During the festive season, when starters, appetizers and main courses are abundant and elaborate, it is essential to choose balanced recipes with healthy, quality ingredients,” says Monica. Consuming extra virgin olive oil is a guaranteed success, healthy and pleasant to the palate, with which to protect the digestive system.

Expert advice

When it comes to choosing the right Christmas menu and to promote better digestion, it is also important to bear in mind how food is cooked. “It is recommended to steam, bake or grill, reducing dishes with saturated fats that increase bad cholesterol”, she points out. 

Using high quality extra virgin olive oil, as opposed to olive oils, sunflower oils, butters and other fats with lesser benefits, is fundamental for a healthy menu. “We should avoid processed foods that are so harmful to our health and should use the best raw materials, including our ALEVOO EVOO, whose composition, rich in oleic acid and monounsaturated fats, helps us to keep cholesterol at bay during the Christmas season of excesses,” she shares.

“The fact that the menu is completely homemade will fully influence the quality of the food and the way in which the body will digest the ingredients”, Monica herself says. “These healthy habits make a difference in our diet, both in the preparation of the recipes themselves and the finishing touches of the dishes, and in the dressing sauces homemade with a good EVOO. Think, for example, of mayonnaise; a homemade mayonnaise made with good EVOO is not the same as an industrial mayonnaise that is not made with quality oil and may contain all kinds of preservatives or additives, the consumption of which is not recommended”.

Festive desserts

Taking care of your health at Christmas also means keeping an eye on the foods you eat at dessert time. Sweets, a tradition at this time of year, form part of the diet linked to special celebrations. Shortbread, nougat, marzipan, and many other confections are a temptation that few can resist. In the same way, a healthy fat, in these cases, will be better than that of a processed product: “as sweets are never lacking on the table, we should opt for sweets made preferably with healthy ingredients, including extra virgin olive oil, the healthiest fat we can use in the kitchen”.

We recommend focusing on top quality food; cooking with ALEVOO Extra Virgin Olive Oil, which provides us with a large quantity of antioxidants, reduces cholesterol and aids digestion; increasing the consumption of fruit and vegetables; drinking plenty of water and not forgetting to do exercise and physical activity. In conclusion: avoiding excesses and opting for our ‘liquid gold’ will always be the key to enjoy much more the most familiar season of the year.

What is a mature skin?

We know that, although the signs of ageing cannot be stopped, there are many options available to delay them and boast a healthy complexion. Mature skin generally has diminished functional capacity, is therefore more exposed to harmful external agents and tends to present alterations in protein synthesis, such as the peroxidation of membrane lipids caused by the action of FR (free radicals). As a result, the skin’s defense mechanisms are disrupted by the action of the aforementioned FRs and favor the development of ageing (intrinsic and extrinsic).

ALEVOO’s new generation of organic cosmetics, tested on all skins, was created to tackle that ageing process. “Our body has mechanisms to neutralize free radicals and, additionally, we can slow down skin ageing with ALEVOO organic face and body cosmetics, rich in vitamin E, antioxidants and other active ingredients that provide the elasticity, firmness and tone that these skins need”

Step by step: beauty routine for mature skin

To understand how to use each of those products, we share the following keys to the beauty routine for mature skin. The first step is cleansing, which should be done with cold water (as it activates circulation and tones the skin) and using our organic ALEVOO soap, a product known for its remarkable properties. It does not dry out the skin, eliminates impurities and provides the necessary hydration and elasticity to make the skin look clean and luminous.

It is important for mature skin to use cosmetics made with anti-radical and antioxidant formulas, enhancing the skin with products such as serum and eye contour, two more allies against skin oxidation and flaccidity, in favor of greater firmness, luminosity and elasticity. Following, we apply our ALEVOO organic serum, which stimulates the synthesis of collagen and elastin, providing firmness and elasticity; at the same time, it re-densifies the skin, corrects flaccidity and provides great luminosity. The serum should be applied to cleansed skin on the face, neck and décolleté, morning and night. At the same time, we apply the ALEVOO organic eye contour cream which prevents wrinkles, bags and dark circles, reducing symptoms of tiredness and fatigue.

Ending the ALEVOO organic beauty routine with our moisturising day cream and nourishing and regenerating night cream, which prevents and reduces the alterations caused by ageing thanks to its moisturizing, emollient, moisturizing, nourishing and regenerating properties. Paying attention to the ingredients is one of the tricks that experts emphasise the most, in the case of Alevoo, our moisturiser features vitamin E and antioxidants and active ingredients which work 24 hours a day.

Sun protection

All skins, and especially the mature skin, need a sun protection and anti-pollution factor. ALEVOO organic day cream has SPF15 as a sunscreen and, in addition, its formula, based on extra virgin olive oil, has an anti-inflammatory effect against UVB radiation and prevents the deactivation of the enzyme superoxide dismutase caused by UVA radiation, which reinforces the protection of healthy skin. In addition, the best cosmetic products for mature skin must act on fibroblasts by stimulating collagen formation and have anti-inflammatory and healing properties, as Alevoo’s line do.

The best diet

The use of the cosmetics will not be fully effective unless another important factor is considered: diet. Knowing that best diet is the Mediterranean diet, as numerous studies have already shown, neglecting what is part of our diet can lead to facial alterations. Scientific studies have shown that a diet deficient in essential fatty acids leads to a loss of skin barrier function and can lead to skin disorders and pathologies such as atopic dermatitis, rosacea, acne, xerosis, etc.

Finally, drinking plenty of water, doing physical exercise and using relaxation techniques such as doing simple facial exercises that can help us to keep the facial tissues firm and elastic are other tips to take care of the skin. 

A gift for guests with good tast

Recognized by the European Union and with an ‘eco’ and premium formulation, Alevoo extra virgin olive oils, single variety picual and single variety royal, are a delight for the senses. They are high quality, early-harvested, organic EVOOs, with Protected Designation of Origin Sierra de Cazorla and excellent nutritional values. “They are rich in oleic acid and polyphenols, nutritional values that can even be appreciated during tasting thanks to the great body of our EVOOs”, the company points out.

Among their outstanding properties, our extra virgin olive oil has a high content of monounsaturated fats, antioxidants and vitamins A, D, E and K. With a fresh and natural aroma, it is unique not only for its composition/content, but also for its entire production process, from the moment it is harvested until a guest tastes it at home. “It is Protected-Designation-of-Origen certified EVOO, what guarantees its origin and quality. It also adds the organic certificate, not only a mention of the organic EVOO, but also the organic certificate-stamp that endorses it. In our case, that is the European and CAAE European seal”, Alevoo claims.

With such a brilliant product, it is difficult for the bride and groom and for any host not to get it right on their big day.

A food with a thousand uses

Monica Nieto, pharmacist and founder of ALEVOO, company master in extra virgin olive oil, has recently explained in various media that among the ‘powers’ of that delicacy is reducing stress, which is one of society’s major problems. “It has been scientifically proven that the consumption of Extra Virgin Olive Oil improves the production of brain enzymes, which are responsible for improving symptoms in stressful situations. It provides a wellbeing similar to the one that we obtain when we practice sports or listen to music, not only when we ingest it as food (at breakfast, lunch and dinner and in the numerous pairings and recipes), but also when we apply it topically as a cosmetics”, she explained.

Home Remedies with Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Among the historical benefits of extra virgin olive oil are strengthening of the immune system, protection against cognitive deterioration and reduction of the risk of coronary heart disease or bad cholesterol.

“There are many benefits of extra virgin olive oil, whether it is consumed as food or applied to the skin. It is the only type of olive oil that contains all the antioxidants and bioactive components. It contains large quantities of powerful natural antioxidants such as polyphenols and vitamin E. It is also rich in vitamins A, D and K, and is high in monounsaturated fats and oleic acid in addition to palmitic, stearic, palmitoleic and linoleic acids” the Company says.

EVOO home remedies for dry lips

It is common that, due to exposure to the sun, lower temperatures or many other external agents, our lips become dry. They can lose their juiciness and even dry out if they are not properly cared for. To prevent before curing, or even to cure, it is a good idea to apply one of the best-known home remedies with extra virgin olive oil: a few drops of extra virgin olive oil as lipstick. The more generous the quantity and the more constantly it is used, the better the results will be.

EVOO home remedies for constipation

Not being able to go to the toilet regularly due to occasional constipation is uncomfortable and sometimes painful. Although there are numerous home remedies or natural remedies on the market, one of the most widespread and shared among generations is to take two spoonsful of EVOO in the morning on an empty stomach. There are also other proposals that mix this wonderful extra virgin olive oil with raw spinach or hot chamomile, to improve the situation in the area. 

Extra virgin olive oil home remedies against heartburn

It is an elegant and fun experience that also requires care before and after the application of nail polish.

Extra virgin olive oil home remedies against mosquitoes

Summer is the favorite season for uncomfortable visitors. Mosquitoes can disturb the rest of many people or surprise others by rivers and marshes, in the countryside or at nightfall. Among the ancestral advice on how to deal with them, it is to use extra virgin olive oil as a base. A few drops of lemon or water are added to the mint. Essential oils of those two ingredients can also be substituted. Those who have tried it say that its effectiveness lasts for a couple of hours.

An exclusive formulation

ALEVOO places its extra virgin olive oil at the center of its organic cosmetic as the most complete element of its own formulation, adapted to all skin types. As highlighted when explaining about their organic day cream, Monica Nieto, pharmacist and founder of the brand, reminded us that in the sunny months “we must increase the frequency of cleansing, moisturizing and nourishing the skin with our organic cosmetics“. Now, in the middle of Autumn, it is not only necessary to moisturize the skin in accordance with the working-day routines, but also to cleanse it thoroughly and delicately at the end of the day and to use a repairing and effective night cream. 

“Our night cream is organic, moisturizing, nourishing and regenerating. Like all our organic cosmetics, it is cruelty-free and made of our organic extra virgin olive oil -certified with Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) “Sierra de Cazorla”– and the best of botanical plants,” explains the ALEVOO team. Featuring the essence of the highest quality EVOO, that night cream, which enjoys great recognition in selected boutiques throughout Spain and the Middle East, has numerous benefits. “ALEVOO organic extra virgin olive oil is rich in natural antioxidants, vitamins and fatty acids. Combined with the regenerating properties of aloe vera and rosehip, it provides the skin with powerful active ingredients ” they say.

A beneficial night cream for skin of all ages 

ALEVOO night cream is one of the firm’s flagship products thanks to all the benefits it has for the skin: “It protects against premature skin ageing, which most people want to prevent. Additionally, it smooths the dreaded fine lines and minimizes wrinkles. Important to highlight, its power to reinforce the tone of the epidermis -which is essential as we get older- and to moisturize and firm the skin while we sleep”.

A different kind of extra virgin olive oil

All of the skin benefits are the result of an exclusive formulation, which the Nieto sisters, founders of ALEVOO, are proud of. Their extra virgin olive oil, known as Spanish “liquid gold” and which the founders of the firm produce and commercialize in organic Picual and Royal varieties, is the star ingredient of each of their cosmetics. “Our extra virgin olive oils are early harvest, unique “Royal” variety and “Organic Picual” variety with Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) “Sierra de Cazorla”. Certified by the Andalusian Committee of Organic Agriculture (CAAE). Both extra virgin olive oils are rich in natural antioxidants, in vitamins A, D, E and K, and have a high content of monounsaturated fats”, they explain.

Their precious extra virgin olive oil is a star ingredient, which is the most suitable for skin care for both women and men of all ages, even at night. It retains all its properties, thanks to a different and very studied packaging: opaque, white color, and high quality, which prevents the product from deteriorating. The night cream, as well as the full cosmetics range, is well protected against external agents that may affecting its quality, including light, which is very harmful to the conservation of olive oil.

Summer is one of the most intense seasons of the year. High temperatures, travelling, eating out, swimming in the sea, visiting our favorite country side village, or playing sports in the mountains are great pleasurable experiences which, at the same time, make it essential to take care of our skin with the best facial day cream. In a season marked by many hours of sunshine, it is more important than ever to nourish the skin to maintain its hydration and appearance continuing with the same routine throughout the year. “At this time of year, we should increase the frequency of cleansing, moisturizing and nourishing the skin with our organic cosmetics“, explains the ALEVOO team. For the firm, skin is considered a luxury and a gift of life. It is the organ that allows us to feel and it must be respected with their organic cosmetics as a well-nourished and healthy skin is synonymous with wellbeing.

A unisex day cream

For women and men looking to moisturize their facial skin with natural ingredients and a unique formulation, ALEVOO’s organic moisturizing day cream with SPF15 sunscreen is the best choice. Organic extra virgin olive oil with Protected Designation of Origin is the protagonist of this skin-nourishing recipe inspired by the cosmetics of our ancestors. “The perfect combination of our organic extra virgin olive oil and botanical plants makes our moisturizing day cream a great source of health for your skin,” say our experts.

In addition to being fresh and having a pleasant texture, the benefits of this facial cream include: protecting the natural barrier from the action of harmful external agents (such as sun rays, pollution, desiccation, air conditioning…), preventing premature cellular ageing, smoothing expression lines and reducing wrinkles. And a mandatory question: does it firm the skin? Yes, indeed. It also tones the epidermis, providing it with an almost immediate silky and supple effect. All thanks to our ALEVOO organic extra virgin olive oil “rich in vitamin E and natural antioxidants, which provide anti-inflammatory and emollient properties”.

Extra virgin olive oil and a lot of know-how

In ALEVOO, the ingredients of their organic products are sacred, which is why their cosmetics and their extra virgin olive oils are made of premium raw materials and are packaged in high-quality, opaque white packaging to protect the contents from external agents as the light, air or dirt can degrade the quality of those carefully crafted products. “Their composition based on powerful natural antioxidants such as polyphenols and vitamin E, as well as vitamins A, D and K, and their high content of monounsaturated fats and oleic acids, allows them to act against the formation of free radicals, delaying cellular ageing, maintaining skin hydration and favoring the integrity of the mucous membranes and skin cells,” ALEVOO’s experts explain. 

A commitment to the skin and much more

The four sisters and founders of ALEVOO firmly believe that the virtues of extra virgin olive oil should be extended to all areas of personal care, from food/healthy eating to beauty routine. Their commitment to society goes beyond the development of organic products that are respectful of our dermis and the environment, as they commit to spreading the healthy properties of their “liquid gold” that is so good for the human body. “All our cosmetics have 100% natural ingredients, do not contain parabens, phthalates, phenoxyethanol, colorings or fragrances. They are made respecting the environment and are not tested on animals,” they say.

They also emphasize that both their extra virgin olive oil and its derived cosmetics are suitable and necessary for the whole family. “The benefits of extra virgin olive oil are so important that we should include it in the diet of children from a very early age. Oleic acid and vitamin E promote bone growth and mineralization. Part of the energy that children need for their growth is obtained from this olive juice”, explains Monica, founder of the brand and a pharmacist. That is why ALEVOO has made such superfood not only a daily ingredient for children, but also for their delicate skin with a children’s line, ALEVOO Kids, which includes shower gel, shampoo and body lotion, all organic.
