The world's first Waterless No-Makeup
based on Hydroxytyrosol.
“Hi, it's me, little Magda on Mallorca, a
little island in the Mediterranean Sea.
I came in contact with hydroxytyrosol at
a very young when my dad first
applied a black olive mask.“

OLIVE ROSE began with a search for answers — and a return to roots.
After years of struggling with her skin, Magda Lommel turned to the one place that always brought her peace: the Mediterranean. Born in Mallorca and raised between cultures, Magda grew up surrounded by slow beauty rituals and natural remedies passed down through generations like the olive mask Thomas used to apply when Magda was 2 . But it wasn’t until years later, while researching ingredients that could truly improve the skin, that she discovered hydroxytyrosol — a powerful antioxidant found in olives, and a compound that would quietly transform her skin and overall skin wellbeing.
That moment sparked an idea: what if skincare and makeup didn’t have to be separate? What if makeup could be as nourishing and impactful as a serum or cream but still feel light, effortless, and glow-enhancing?
Together with her father, Magda founded OLIVE ROSE, a makeup brand powered by hydroxytyrosol and inspired by the balance and simplicity of Mediterranean living. Each formula is waterless, gentle, packed with benefits, and created to support skin — not cover it.
Our mission is to help you feel good in your skin — with less. Less layers. Less stress. Just more glow.
This is beauty, reimagined from the inside out.
...here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)
