The story continues – the great success of the trees goes out into the world (© OLIVEDA)
OLIVEDA International, Inc. (OTC Pink: OLVI), the pioneer of Waterless Beauty, has reached a valuation of over one billion US dollars – a milestone that founder Thomas Lommel would never have expected when he once roamed the streets of Seville as a “sandwich man” with posters that read: “Your own 100-year-old olive tree”.
Although the campaign failed, it led Lommel to a life-changing discovery in Puglia: hydroxytyrosol, a polyphenol from olive leaves with an antioxidant concentration up to 3,000 times higher than olive oil. Studies show that this small molecule antioxidant can neutralize free radicals and support skin health at a deeper level.
“At that moment I realized: this is nature’s best-kept secret,” says Lommel.
“The olive tree lives for millennia – because of these very substances – which OLIVE TREE PEOPLE uses to redefine skincare.”
OLIVEDA is currently overtaking celebrity brands such as “JLo Beauty” (Jennifer Lopez) and is growing twice as fast as Hailey Bieber’s “Rhode”, which was recently sold for a record sum. The company’s sales grew 600% faster than the mega-successful “Beautycounter” in the USA in its second year – according to internal sales figures for the last two years.
Building on the company’s unprecedented 3,000% growth in the US in just two years, OLIVE TREE PEOPLE is now poised for a market revolution in Europe, focusing on the direct-to-consumer (DTC) distribution model that will replace partnerships with retailers to strengthen the network of over 60,000 Waterless Beauty Consultants.
After more than 20 years in brick-and-mortar retail in Europe, OLIVE TREE PEOPLE is now making the strategic shift to the DTC model, inspired by the US market:
Conversion of the flagship stores in Berlin and Düsseldorf into immersive “Treehouse Experience” centers
Scaling to 120,000 advisors worldwide by the end of 2026
Conventional cosmetics consist of up to 70% water, preservatives and refined vegetable oils. OLIVEDA’s Waterless Beauty dispenses with these completely – in favor of highly effective organic active ingredients from its own eco-certified mountain olive trees:
Hydroxytyrosol: A powerful antioxidant that surpasses vitamin C and E in effectiveness
Olea Europaea olive leaf extract: The nutrient source of the 4,000-year-old olive tree – rich in polyphenols that promote the body’s natural protective function and cell regeneration
Thomas Lommel is convinced that the most effective way to hydrate the skin starts from within. That’s why he developed OLIVEDA’s night supplements such as I66 The Beauty Fountain and I70 The Beauty Molecule.
Innovation at OLIVE TREE PEOPLE doesn’t end with cosmetics: with Olive Matcha, OLIVE MUSH (both caffeine-free coffee alternatives) and olive re:connected to nature – a sound meditation with frequencies from its olive trees – the brand taps into holistic well-being.
“We are not just a beauty company – we are a movement,” says Lommel.
“And this is just the beginning.”
