Recommended Uses & Known Applications

Skin Care

Moraserano oil is very light; it easily spreads to the skin. Also, Moringa oil easily combines with essential amino acids and it does not easily dry. These characteristics make it perfect for aromatherapy and massage applications. It also has great nutritive and emollient properties, which makes it a perfect skin moisturizer and conditioner.

Hair Care

Moraserano contains a remarkable amount of vitamin A, B and E which are essentials to address these hair issues: dryness and split ends are due to the lack of vitamin A in the hair, hair loss is due to the lack of vitamin B in the diet and finally the vitamin E content of Moringa is reported to enhance the blood circulation in the scalp, which may lead to longer, stronger and healthier hair.
