Overview

Moringa oil has been used for many, many years – even though it has recently become one of the latest health fads. Its uses include aiding with skin, hair and other internal health benefits.

Moringa oil is most commonly used in beauty products such as moisturisers and body lotions. If you don’t wish to spend money on expensive cosmetics, some moringa essential oil can be added to a plain cream for moisturising effects. It can also be added to shampoo to strengthen and add shine to dull hair.

The ideal storage of essential oils is to keep it refrigerated, as the fridge keeps the components that make up the oils at their optimal levels. If you don’t have space in the fridge, you can keep it in a cool, dark place. Essential oils have a shelf life of one to five years. You should however replace essential oils after three years to gain the most benefits out of the essential oils.
