Moringa For Beauty

Africa’s influence grows with new beauty products

We are used to ingredients from around the world but, with beauty, Africa is now the hot spot, with lush, plant-derived oils and extracts reaching mainstream brands. Protein-rich baobab, from the baobab tree, is a key ingredient for skincare as it’s high in antioxidants, calcium, and vitamins C and A. Marula oil, from the tree of the same name, boasts higher antioxidant and omega-9 levels than argan oil, while nutrient-dense moringa leaves contain no less than 30 antioxidants.
