Dalan Pure Olive: A Buyer's Guide to Olive Oil Personal Care
Dalan's Pure Olive line covers six personal care formats - shampoo (volumizing and anti-dandruff), body oil, shower gel, face and body cream, and soap - all built around olive oil as the primary active and moisturizing ingredient. Dalan is a Turkish brand with decades of olive oil personal care experience. This guide covers what olive oil does in each product format, how the six Pure Olive products differ, and how to combine them into a complete head-to-toe routine.
Why Olive Oil Works in Personal Care
Olive oil is rich in oleic acid (a monounsaturated fatty acid), squalene, and polyphenols including hydroxytyrosol and oleuropein. In skin and hair care, oleic acid penetrates the surface barrier to deliver deep moisture; squalene is structurally similar to human sebum, making it highly compatible with skin's natural lipid layer. The polyphenols provide antioxidant protection. These properties make olive oil a high-performance natural ingredient for dry hair, dry and barrier-compromised skin, and dehydrated scalp. Dalan's Pure Olive line extracts these benefits at each step of a daily personal care routine, from the wash step through to conditioning and leave-on care.
About Dalan as a Turkish Personal Care Brand
Dalan is a Turkish personal care company with a long product history in olive oil-based soap and skin care. Turkey is one of the world's largest olive oil producers, and Dalan draws on that supply chain for its raw material sourcing. The brand is known internationally under the dalan d'Olive name, particularly for hand and body creams. The Pure Olive sub-line represents a broader product family than just the creams - shampoos, body washes, and soaps are part of the same olive oil formulation philosophy. Products on Skinsli are sourced from Turkish supply channels and have cleared US import requirements.
Pure Olive Intensive Care Cream 60ml
The Pure Olive Intensive Care Cream (60ml) is a concentrated face and hands moisturizer formulated with olive oil as the primary emollient. The 60ml size is a standard facial cream jar, providing approximately two months of twice-daily full-face use. The 'intensive care' positioning signals a richer texture suited for dry or very dry skin types - the oleic acid content and squalene deliver a deeply nourishing layer that addresses persistent dryness rather than surface-level hydration. It works as a standalone night cream or as a thick hand cream applied after washing. For normal skin in summer, a smaller application amount as a daytime moisturizer is also effective.
Pure Olive Volumizing Nourishing Shampoo 400ml
The Pure Olive Volumizing Nourishing Shampoo (400ml) addresses two common concerns in fine or limp hair: lack of volume and lack of nourishment. Olive oil in shampoo provides lipid nourishment to the hair shaft without the weight that pure oil treatments add - the rinse-out step removes most of the oil, leaving the hair strand smoother and with reduced frizz without flatness. The 'volumizing' claim suggests the formula also includes humectants or light-hold polymers that lift the hair shaft root. At 400ml, this is a generous supply - daily shampooing for one person typically uses 10-15ml per wash, so the bottle provides approximately 25-40 washes.
Pure Olive Oil Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 250ml
The Pure Olive Oil Anti-Dandruff Shampoo (250ml) combines olive oil's scalp-conditioning properties with an anti-dandruff active (typically zinc pyrithione or salicylic acid, though confirming the specific active requires checking the full ingredient list). Olive oil addresses the dry, tight scalp that contributes to flaking, while the anti-dandruff agent targets the Malassezia fungus that causes seborrheic dandruff. The combination makes this shampoo relevant for both dry-scalp flaking and fungal dandruff. At 250ml it is a 15-25 wash supply for daily or every-other-day use. For best results with anti-dandruff shampoo, leave it on the scalp for 2-3 minutes before rinsing to allow the active agent contact time.
Pure Olive Oil Body Oil 200ml
The Pure Olive Oil Body Oil (200ml) is a replacement or supplementary body moisturizer applied post-shower to damp skin. Using body oil on damp skin traps water in the upper layers of the skin (emollient sealing effect), extending moisture well past the oil's own content. Olive oil as a body oil is particularly effective for very dry areas - elbows, heels, shins, and knees - where barrier lipids are frequently disrupted by friction and washing. Applied to the body within 60 seconds of stepping out of the shower (before the skin is fully dry), the oil spreads easily and absorbs without a prolonged greasy period. At 200ml it provides 20-40 full-body applications depending on how much is used per session.
Pure Olive Oil Moisturizing Shower Gel 400ml
The Pure Olive Oil Moisturizing Shower Gel (400ml) is the daily body wash in the Pure Olive lineup. Unlike standard shower gels that rely on surfactant alone, the moisturizing formula includes olive oil to reduce post-wash dryness. It is the wash step that begins the olive oil conditioning routine continued by the body oil or cream after showering. At 400ml the bottle provides approximately 40-80 washes at standard daily use. The large format makes it a practical value purchase for anyone using body wash daily. For particularly dry body skin, the shower gel plus the body oil applied after creates a two-step olive oil conditioning routine that significantly reduces dryness between washes.
Pure Olive Oil Soap - Lavender 150g
The Pure Olive Oil Soap (150g, Lavender) is a traditional bar soap format using olive oil as the primary fatty acid source. Olive oil soaps are gentler than standard sodium lauryl sulfate-based bar soaps because oleic acid has a lower stripping potential than shorter-chain fatty acids. The lavender fragrance adds a calming, herbal scent that differs from the neutral to mild fragrance of the rest of the Pure Olive line. The 150g bar provides 60-90 uses depending on storage - keeping a bar soap in a dry soap dish between uses extends its life significantly. It can be used for both face and body washing.
A Full Head-to-Toe Pure Olive Routine
Morning shower: Pure Olive Moisturizing Shower Gel (body) → Pure Olive Volumizing Shampoo (hair) → towel dry and apply Pure Olive Body Oil to damp skin. Face: Pure Olive Intensive Care Cream as moisturizer. Evening hand care: Pure Olive Intensive Care Cream on hands after the last hand wash of the day. Hair treatment (2x per week): leave the Volumizing Shampoo on the scalp for an additional minute during washing. Anti-dandruff rotation: replace the Volumizing Shampoo with the Anti-Dandruff Shampoo on two to three wash days per week until dandruff is controlled, then use it once weekly as maintenance. The Pure Olive Soap works as a bathroom sink soap for hand washing throughout the day.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What products are in the Dalan Pure Olive line?
The Dalan Pure Olive line on Skinsli includes 6 products: Pure Olive Intensive Care Cream 60ml, Pure Olive Volumizing Nourishing Shampoo 400ml, Pure Olive Oil Anti-Dandruff Shampoo 250ml, Pure Olive Oil Body Oil 200ml, Pure Olive Oil Moisturizing Shower Gel 400ml, and Pure Olive Oil Soap (Lavender) 150g. The line spans face care, hair care, and body care with olive oil as the shared active ingredient.
Is Dalan a Turkish brand?
Yes. Dalan is a Turkish personal care brand, known internationally under the dalan d'Olive name. Turkey is one of the world's largest olive producers, and Dalan sources its olive oil raw materials from that regional supply chain. The brand has a long history in olive oil-based soap and personal care formulations. Pure Olive products on Skinsli are manufactured in Turkey.
Can the Dalan Pure Olive Intensive Care Cream be used on the face?
Yes. The Pure Olive Intensive Care Cream (60ml) is formulated for face and hands. Apply it as a face moisturizer at night or as a daytime cream for dry skin. The oleic acid content makes it particularly effective for dry and very dry skin. On oily or acne-prone skin, olive oil can feel heavy and may not suit daily face use - the cream is better suited for the drier areas of the face (cheeks, jawline) than the T-zone. Patch test first if you have oily or acne-prone skin.
Should the Dalan Pure Olive Body Oil be applied to wet or dry skin?
Apply the Pure Olive Body Oil (200ml) to damp skin - within 60 seconds of stepping out of the shower before the skin dries completely. Applying oil to damp skin traps water in the upper skin layers (the oil seals over the water), extending the moisturizing effect. On fully dry skin, the oil delivers the olive oil fatty acids but without the water-sealing benefit. Pat the skin with a towel to remove dripping water, then apply the oil and allow it to absorb for 2-3 minutes before dressing.
Does olive oil in the Dalan shampoo make hair greasy?
No - the olive oil in the Volumizing Nourishing Shampoo (400ml) is formulated to be rinsed out, so it delivers conditioning benefits during the wash step without depositing a significant amount of oil on the hair shaft after rinsing. The result is smoother, less frizzy hair without the flatness of a heavy oil treatment. For very fine or oily hair, use a slightly smaller amount per wash and rinse thoroughly. If hair feels heavy after washing, reduce the amount used or try every-other-day use rather than daily.
How long does the Dalan Pure Olive Anti-Dandruff Shampoo take to work?
Anti-dandruff shampoos typically show visible improvement in flaking within two to four weeks of consistent use. Apply the Pure Olive Oil Anti-Dandruff Shampoo (250ml) to wet hair and scalp, massage, and leave for 2-3 minutes before rinsing to allow the active agent contact time with the scalp. Use two to three times per week initially, then once weekly for maintenance once flaking is controlled. The olive oil in the formula conditions the scalp during the treatment, which is particularly helpful for dry-scalp dandruff.
Can the Dalan Pure Olive Lavender Soap be used as a face wash?
Yes - the Pure Olive Oil Soap (Lavender, 150g) is gentle enough for face washing due to its olive oil base. Traditional olive oil bar soaps have a lower stripping effect than standard soaps. However, bar soaps are typically more alkaline than the skin's natural pH, so follow with a toner to restore the acid mantle if using the soap on your face daily. For body hand-washing, the bar soap works well without a pH-adjusting follow-up step.
Is the Dalan Pure Olive line suitable for very dry skin?
The Pure Olive line is well-suited for dry to very dry skin - this is the product range's primary strength. Olive oil's oleic acid and squalene content address deep dryness rather than surface hydration only. The Intensive Care Cream on the face and hands, the Body Oil applied post-shower on damp skin, and the Shower Gel for daily cleansing form an olive oil-centered daily routine that consistently replenishes barrier lipids. For severely dry or eczema-prone body skin, layering the Shower Gel (wash step) with the Body Oil immediately after (seal step) provides the most sustained moisture.
Should I use the Dalan Shower Gel or Body Oil, or both?
The Shower Gel and Body Oil serve different steps: the Shower Gel cleanses during the shower with added olive oil conditioning, while the Body Oil is applied post-shower as a standalone moisturizer. For dry skin, using both gives the most benefit - the shower gel reduces moisture stripping during washing, and the body oil applied to damp skin afterward seals in moisture. For normal skin, the shower gel alone may be sufficient and the body oil can be reserved for particularly dry patches on elbows, knees, and heels.
