Our Marula Oil has earned its reputation as a certified organic skincare essential that has quickly become a staple for skin, hair, and nail enthusiasts around the globe. Extracted from the nuts of the Marula tree (Sclerocarya birrea) native to parts of Africa, this lightweight oil is rich in essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins that nourish and protect. Below, we address the most frequently asked questions about Marula Oil—how to use it, what makes it special, and where to find it—so you can make the most of this golden elixir.
________________________________________
1. Is Marula Oil Suitable for Hair?
Answer: Certainly. Marula Oil is celebrated for deeply moisturizing, reinforcing, and shielding hair while remaining weightless. Here’s why and how it works:
Intense Moisture for Parched Hair
• Why It Helps: Packed with oleic acid (omega-9) and linoleic acid (omega-6), Marula Oil soaks into each strand to lock in hydration and stave off dryness.
• Result: Locks leave hair softer, sleeker, and simpler to style.
Frizz Control and Smoothing
• How It Helps: The natural lipids in Marula Oil smooth the hair cuticle (the outermost layer of each strand) so cuticles lie flat, hair reflects light better and frizz is reduced.
• Effect: Flyaways diminish, leaving hair glossier and more even.
Scalp Nourishment
• Main Benefit: Marula Oil contains vitamin E (an antioxidant) and sterols, which help maintain a healthy scalp environment.
• How to Apply: Massage 2–3 drops onto the scalp to boost circulation and soothe dryness.
• Outcome: A well-nourished scalp typically yields stronger, better-growing hair.
Heat Protection
• Mechanism: When applied to hair before using heat styling tools, Marula Oil forms a thin barrier around each strand.
• Effect: It shields hair from heat, decreasing split ends and brittleness.
Boosted Hair Resilience
• Benefit: Its fatty acids let strands stretch without breaking.
• Result: Hair becomes more resilient when combing or styling, leading to less breakage.
How to Use Marula Oil on Hair
Pre-Shampoo Treatment
• Measure: Apply 1 dime-sized drop for short hair, 1–2 teaspoons for long hair.
• Distribute: Evenly distribute the oil from roots (if your scalp is dry) to mid-lengths and ends.
• Work In: Massage lightly to ensure even coverage across scalp and hair.
• Wait: Allow 15–30 minutes for deep conditioning.
• Rinse & Shampoo: Rinse with shampoo and follow with conditioner.
Result: Hair emerges stronger, silkier, and tangle-free.
Leave-In Conditioner
• Towel-Dry: Remove excess water so hair is damp but not soaked.
• Dispense & Warm: Warm 2–4 drops in the palms of your hands.
• Apply to Ends: Apply mainly to ends and mid-shaft, keeping roots oil-free for fine-hair types.
• Proceed to Style: Detangle, style as normal.
Effect: Provides daily moisture, tames frizz, and seals split ends.
Finishing Touch Serum
• Dispense & Apply: Warm one drop (two if hair is thick) between palms.
• Apply to Frizzy Spots: Lightly smooth over the ends and any frizzy spots.
Result: Delivers a final shine and frizz control.
Integrating Marula Oil as a mask, leave-in conditioner, or finish serum will strengthen, hydrate, and improve hair health without leaving residue.

2. Is Marula Oil Comedogenic?
Answer: Almost never. With a comedogenic rating of 0–1, Marula Oil seldom clogs pores, making it safe for most skin conditions. Explanation:
Feather-Light Consistency
• Absorption: It soaks in rapidly, rather than lingering on the surface. It won’t leave a greasy film as heavier oils do.
• Result: Since it penetrates rather than layers on top, it is less likely to trap dirt and dead skin.
Regulating Oil Instead of Overloading
• Natural Oil Mimicry: The fatty acid profile is similar to the skin’s natural sebum, which helps regulate oil production.
• Benefit: For many, it actually balances oil production rather than causing excessive oiliness.
Soothing & Protective Ingredients
• Vitamin E & C: They bolster the skin’s defense and calm inflammation, lowering breakout potential.
• Phenolic Compounds: These plant phenols calm red, irritated skin, preventing pore blockages from inflammation.
Preventing Breakouts
• Apply to Clean Skin Only:
Begin on skin free of makeup, sunscreen, and oil. This ensures you’re not sealing in makeup, sunscreen, or environmental pollutants under the oil.
• Use Sparingly:
Small amounts suffice. Begin with 2–3 drops for your entire face. Add more gradually if needed, without saturating.
• Perform a Patch Test for Acne-Prone Skin:
Dab a small drop on your jawline or behind your ear, then wait 24 hours to see if any redness or breakouts occur.
• Modify Usage:
o Daily Use: Many users apply Marula Oil nightly without issue.
o Every Other Night or Weekly Mask: For excess oil or breakouts, try it 2–3 times weekly or as a weekly mask.
To recap, its quick absorption and low pore-clogging score make it generally safe. If you’re prone to breakouts, begin with minimal use, watch your skin’s reaction, and tweak as needed.

4. Blot or rinse: In the morning, gently blot any excess or rinse lightly and follow with your routine.
o Who: Combination and oily quads will love this weekly treat to get nutrients without daily oiling.
3.4 Benefits When Used on the Face
• Hydration & Barrier Strengthening:
Its fats lock moisture into skin, bolstering the barrier to fend off dryness and irritation.

Antioxidant vitamins combat damage from sun and pollution, smoothing fine lines and evening out color.
• Anti-Inflammatory Relief:
Its sterols and phenolics calm red, irritated skin, making it perfect for sensitive or reactive skin.
• Brightening & Tone Improvement:
Vitamin C’s gentle brightening action helps lighten surface spots, revealing a more uniform tone.

Use it under retinoids or vitamin C to reduce dryness and irritation.
Apply these tips to maximize Marula Oil’s benefits—moisturized, glowy, and calm skin with no oily residue.

4. What Is Marula Oil Made From?
Answer: Harvested from Marula nut kernels, it is cold-pressed to yield an unadulterated, nutrient-dense oil. Read on for a step-by-step overview of the Marula harvesting and cold-press process:
4.1 Origin of the Marula Tree
• Scientific Name: Sclerocarya birrea.
• Native Regions:
o Southern Africa: South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe.
o Eastern Africa: Natural habitats include Mozambique and Tanzania.
• Growth Pattern: These trees grow in natural savannas and woodlands, eliminating plantation-driven deforestation.
4.2 Marula Fruit Anatomy
• Marula Fruit:
o Appearance: Small, yellow when ripe (about 2–4 cm in diameter).
o Edible Uses: Local peoples enjoy the pulp fresh, use it in fermented drinks, or make jams.
o Nutritional Value: High in vitamin C and antioxidants—often enjoyed by wildlife (elephants, baboons) in the wild.
• Kernel Description:
o Nut Shell: Tough outer shell.
o Edible Kernel: Inside lies the kernel, containing about 60% oil.
4.3 From Tree to Bottle
1. Harvesting:
o When: Late summer, after fruit falls to the ground.
o Who: In many African villages, women gather fallen fruit. This traditional practice has been passed down through generations and often takes the form of women-led cooperatives.
2. Shelling & Kernel Preparation:
o Hand Sorting: Workers remove any remaining fruit pulp, then crack open the hard shells to extract kernels.
o Drying: Kernels are spread out in the sun to dry. This reduces moisture content, which helps preserve nutrients and prevents spoilage.
3. Cold-Pressing:
o Why Cold-Pressing Matters: Minimal heat retains all nutrients, antioxidants, and fatty acids.
o Pressing Process:
Press Machinery: Cold-press machinery extracts oil under low heat.
Oil Separation: Oil oozes out and is collected in a container beneath
o Benefits: Maintains all beneficial compounds and subtle fragrance.
4. Filtering & Bottling:
o Clarifying: Fine mesh or cloth filters out bits, yielding pure, clear oil.
o Packaging: Dark glass bottles (amber or cobalt) shield oil from UV, safeguarding its potency.
4.4 Key Components of Marula Oil
• Oleic Acid – 70–78%: Serves as a powerful moisturizer by mirroring natural sebum.
• Linoleic Acid – 4–10%: Boosts barrier strength and hydration.
• Palmitic & Stearic Acids: Contribute to skin nourishment and softness.
• Antioxidants:
o Vitamin E (Tocopherols): Neutralizes harmful free radicals.
o Vitamin C: Aids collagen production and brightening.
• Phenolics & Sterols: Soothe inflammation and calm skin.
With its balanced profile, Marula Oil hydrates, reinforces the skin barrier, and fights aging in a non-greasy formula.

5. Fragrance Profile
Answer: Marula Oil has a gentle, natural aroma—unlike heavier or more pungent oils.
• Nutty Undertones: A delicate nutty hint, softer than typical nut oils like coconut or peanut.
• Subtle Fruitiness: A hint of fruitiness lingers, reflecting its origin in the Marula fruit. Yet it is never overly fruity (not like citrus or berry oils). It’s a very delicate, naturally sweet undercurrent.
• Fades Quickly on Skin: Upon application, the scent dissipates quickly. It doesn’t hang around the way a strong essential oil or fragrance would.
o Why It Matters: Great for sensitive skin or fragrance-averse users—won’t conflict with perfume.
In short, Marula Oil offers a pleasant, light fragrance that isn’t overwhelming and fades quickly, making it a great choice for fragrance-averse users.

1. Cleanse Thoroughly: Use an oil cleanser followed by a gentle wash.
2. Optional Actives: Apply any actives first and wait a minute to sink in.
3. Dispense 3–4 Drops: Distribute on cheeks, T-zone, and neck
4. Massage In: Rub in upward circles for about 30–60 seconds.
• Optional Layering: Feel free to use a rich cream over the oil if needed for dry skin.
6.3 Weekly Treatment or Mask
• Ideal For: Those with combination or acne-prone skin concerned about daily oil buildup.
• Why: A weekly mask lets your skin soak up Marula Oil’s nutrients without risking daily congestion.
• How to Use:
1. Deep Cleanse: Remove makeup, oil, and product residue with a gentle cleanser.
2. Apply 5–7 Drops: Gently pat all over face.
3. Leave on for 20–30 Minutes: Keep on for at least 20 minutes or overnight.
4. Blot Excess or Rinse: Blot with a soft cloth or rinse lightly if too oily.
6.4 Use on Hair & Body Anytime
• Hair:
o Deep Pre-Wash Treatment: Apply 2–3 tablespoons to hair/scalp, let sit 20–30 minutes, then wash out.
o Leave-In Conditioner: On damp hair (post-shower), rub 1–2 drops between palms and apply to mid-lengths and ends.
• Bodycare:
o Rough Areas: Rub into dry patches like elbows, knees, and cuticles
o Scars & Stretch Marks: Use a drop on scars or stretch marks each day to help fade and firm.
• Additional Applications:
o Makeup Remover: Gently wipe with Marula Oil to melt makeup, then rinse and cleanse.
o Nail Care: Use one drop per nail to soften and nourish cuticles.
By understanding the different contexts—morning, night, weekly, and on-demand—you can customize Marula Oil’s use to match your skin’s needs, hair goals, and lifestyle.
