Oliveda Internals Review: What they are + which to buy

Oliveda sells a group of products called “internals” that not only help with skin issues and anti-aging but also help with inflammation and joint pain. Unlike common skincare products like cleansers or serums, the internals work from the inside out, targeting the root causes of skin issues. They’re meant to be ingested, just like a supplement. I’ve been taking Oliveda internals for two months and have noticed a significant difference in my inflammation and joint pain, so they’re now must-haves for me.

I had a pretty traumatic C-section earlier this year, and it’s been hard to get my inflammation back down. My joint pain (which I’ve struggled with as I’ve gotten older) has been significantly worse since then. So I’m doing everything I can to decrease inflammation, and the Oliveda internals, specifically i66, i01, and the OliveMush — are must-haves in my routine now. You can see the rest of my supplement routine in this post.

In this post, I’ll explain the Oliveda internals and how they can improve your health and skincare routine. If you’re interested in Oliveda’s skincare, read my Oliveda review here.

Oliveda Internals: My Experience + Why I take them

Key Ingredients

Oliveda has three main products—i01, i66, and i70—designed to be used as daily supplements, each targeting different aspects of skin health. They also have a coffee substitute, OliveMush, that I definitely don’t use first thing in the morning, but it has helped replace my afternoon latte habit (most days anyway!). I also tried the Olive Matcha, and it tastes awful, so skip that altogether.

The key ingredient in all of these products is hydroxytyrosol (as with all Oliveda products). Hydroxytyrosol (Olive Leaf Extract) is a super powerful antioxidant that has a ton of benefits for your skin (brightens dark spots, protects from environmental stressors, etc.). It’s also known for its anti-inflammatory benefits. It can even reduce the risk of coronary heart disease and atherosclerosis.

Why Internals Matter for Your Skin

Your skin is your largest organ and often the first indicator of internal imbalances. Issues like rosacea, redness, inflammation, and unexplained acne can often be traced back to internal factors. By addressing these issues from within, Oliveda internals can help heal your skin even with the most basic skincare routine (and you’ll obviously see more results by using the right products on your skin. Here’s my skincare routine).

The Core Products

I01 Orac & Camu Camu Olive Leaf Concentrate

The I01 Orac & Camu Camu Olive Leaf Concentrate is the very first product that Oliveda released and inspired its entire skincare line. Thomas Lommel started Oliveda after he experienced the powerful benefits of olive tree extracts in his own health journey. At 33, Thomas was dealing with an illness, and regular medications weren’t helping. He started treating his illness with olive tree extract, and his health completely changed. You can read more about his story and how Oliveda came to be here.

When Thomas started Oliveda, the I01 internal was his first product. I = Internal (and you’ll see “F” on the face products), and the number corresponds to the order in which the products were created. For example, F59 (Oliveda’s famous Botox in a Bottle) stands for Face and is the 59th product in Oliveda’s lineup.

I01 has a high concentration of antioxidants and camu camu, which is exceptionally high in vitamin C. It’s also rich in iron, making it an excellent postpartum supplement. 

Benefits

The combination of vitamin C and iron helps improve ferritin levels, and the hydroxytyrosol is high in antioxidants, which helps decrease inflammation. Managing inflammation is particularly important as we age or after major injuries or surgeries (like a c-section). And, if you struggle with low iron like many women, iron + camu camu is great, since iron is absorbed better when paired with vitamin C. 

Personal Experience

Even though my iron levels have stabilized and my c-section scar is healing nicely, I continue to take I01 daily for its anti-inflammatory benefits. The difference is noticeable—my joint pain returns if I skip it for a few days. While the taste isn’t great, I take it like a shot to get it down.

I70 The Beauty Fountain + Hyaluron

The I70 The Beauty Fountain is a drinkable supplement designed to enhance your skincare routine from the inside out. It’s packed with antioxidants and hyaluronic acid and promotes hydration and firmness.

Benefits

Oliveda’s I70 promotes cell protection, reduces pore size, strengthens nails, firms skin, decreases wrinkles, and imparts an overall glow. It also contains lavender, camu camu, and turmeric.

Personal Experience

I started using I70 before I66 was available, and I was pleasantly surprised by its taste. And my skin started glowing after using multiple Oliveda products (no really, look at my Oliveda before and after here).

I66 The Beauty Fountain + Collagen

Similar to the I70, the I66 The Beauty Fountain + Collagen includes the added benefit of bioavailable collagen, which is crucial for skin, bone, and connective tissue health. As we age, our bodies stop producing as much collagen, which results in our bodies feeling stiffer and less agile, our skin begins to sag and wrinkle, and our hair begins to thin. The joys of getting older and wiser! 

Your body starts to decrease collagen production in your 20s, and you lose about 1% of your collagen every year, so by age 50, you have nearly 30% less collagen than you did at 20 and almost 50% less collagen by the time you’re 70. So, if you’re closer to age 40 than you are 30, I’d suggest taking i66 rather than i70, but either one will benefit you if you can’t grab i66 while it’s in stock (it sells out fast!!).

Benefits

Collagen supports strong joints, elastic skin, protects your organs and is essential for maintaining the health of both your body and your skin. Benefits for your body include improved joint mobility and lubrication, reduced joint pain and achiness, healthy cartilage and connective tissue, and improved muscle tone. For your skin, the collagen paired with hydroxytyrosol will help your skin’s appearance with increased hydration, firmness and elasticity, and reduced appearance of wrinkles.

Personal Experience

I take I66 even though I think I70 tastes better because I want the added collagen. Since I turn 40 in a month, I want all the help I can get with skin elasticity and maintaining joint health. While it’s obviously better to get collagen from your diet, that’s not always realistic, so this helps supplement gaps in my diet (I especially don’t want to brew up bone broth since my hands are very full with a toddler and an infant).

OliveMush

OliveMush is a coffee alternative made of hydroxytyrosol, organic cacao, Mediterranean herbs, and functional mushrooms. It also contains cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, black pepper, turmeric, and chili.

Benefits

OliveMush is similar to coffee in that it gives you that daily “ritual”, but there’s no caffeine. It still gives you that energy and focus you need due to the mushroom blend that’s made with Lion‘s Mane and Cordyceps, just without the caffeine crash and jitters. The mushroom blend is also known to help with stress. It’s organic, vegan, and gluten free.

Personal Experience

I take 1 Tbsp and mix it with about 4 oz of hot water. Then, I froth non-dairy milk with 1-2 teaspoons of honey and pour that into the OliveMush mixture, like a latte. You definitely need honey or some kind of sweetener; it doesn’t taste good without it but it tastes delicious with it! Just sweeten to taste; I don’t like overly sweet drinks so I add less honey than most people.

You can drink it hot or cold, but I prefer it hot. While I don’t drink this instead of my morning coffee (I’m not sure how I will ever give that up), I do like to drink this instead of my afternoon coffee or latte.

Who Should Use Oliveda Internals?

Oliveda internals are a great option for anyone, but especially those who are dealing with inflammation that may present as joint pain, skin issues and gut problems. 

If you get just one, get the I01 Orac & Camu Camu Olive Leaf Concentrate since it has 14x more hydroxytyrosol than any other Oliveda product and that’s the key ingredient that helps reduce inflammation. For a daily “beauty booster,” choose between the I70 and the I66 based on your needs—hyaluronic acid in I70 for hydration and collagen in I66 for elasticity. Be sure to store these supplements in the fridge once opened to maintain their potency.

Oliveda is having a huge wave of popularity, which has caused inventory to go out of stock pretty quickly. They restock products often, but even then, they go fast.
