## Abstract

This invention illustrates a composition which has a high antioxidant power in cosmetic products. The composition includes a combination of two critical ingredients, originating from two natural superfood products: olive and kale. This current technology utilizes the sprout of kale, instead of the whole plant, as one ingredient. In the perspective of olive extract, it is either in the form of a concentrated liquid syrup of olive tree and leaf, which is enriched with natural polyphenols, especially with high content of hydroxytyrosol, or in the form of pure liquid hydroxytyrosol. An enhanced antioxidant power is observed when incorporating the kale sprouts together with the olive leaf extract.
