English term or phrase: Extra Virgin Olive Oil,

This is a product presentation on (Extra virgin) Olive oil based beauty products for export, explaining the benefits of olive oil. The target audience are non-Greek. Translation required in many languages including malay.

I believe the original text is in Greek and translated into English. The phrase is extracted from the sentence below:

"All Natural beauty products with Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Olive Leaves Extracts and Greek herbs & honey which benefit body and soul."
