Moringa

MORINGA

Moringa is an unassuming tree with a whole range of benefits, and it contains a variety of proteins, vitamins, and minerals. The powder from dried moringa leaves contains vitamins C and E which help fight against pollutants and free radicals that contribute to ageing. While moringa powder is typically consumed as a supplement, products made using the oil extracted from moringa seeds can be applied directly to your skin and hair.

Moringa contains B-complex vitamins like B1, B2, B3, B6, and folate which fight signs of ageing by aiding the production of healthy new skin cells and reducing the appearance of age spots and blemishes. Moringa is also said to provide 10 times more vitamin A than carrots! Vitamin A can help to prevent the loss of collagen in your skin and encourage its production so that your skin retains its youthful glow.

Moringa is great for dry skin as oleic acid found in moringa oil locks moisture into your skin and offers protection from the environment. As moringa closely imitates the oils naturally found in the skin, those with oily or combination skin can use it on a regular basis without fear of breakouts. What’s more, moringa’s antibacterial, antifungal, and antimicrobial properties can help reduce the occurrence of spots and acne.

Moringa works similar magic on hair too, giving your scalp and tresses the deep hydration they need.

Moringa’s multiple benefits give you plenty of reasons to include this wonder ingredient in your regular skincare and haircare routine.
