Founded in 2014 by makeup artist Paola LaMorticella, Olio e Osso began with a single product born from necessity: a supremely gentle balm created to soothe her son’s sensitive skin. This initial formula, Balm No. 1, established the brand’s core principle of “less is more,” delivering functional beauty through simple, nourishing, and minimally processed ingredients. The collection is anchored by its signature tinted balms, versatile sticks of color for lips and cheeks, all hand-poured in small batches in Portland, Oregon. The brand’s aesthetic is clean and effortless, appealing to an audience that values transparency and natural-looking enhancement.
