Why Is Moroccan Oil Great For Your Hair?


Moroccan Oil has been very popular for a couple of years now. Many brands have come out with their own version like Organix and Josie Maron. But the first company that created Moroccan Oil was Moroccan Oil. Now I have never tried the original moroccan oil, I have only tried different versions of it. But today I decided to tell you all why Moroccan Oil is so great for your hair. Most people just hear good things about it and get it but I think everyone deserves to know why. Why is it so good for your hair. Plus I was curious myself.


What is Moroccan Oil? 
According to Self.com, Moroccan Oil is actually argan oil that comes from a specific tree in Morocco. Since the oil is very rare because of the small quantities, that is why it is so expensive. Originally it was used for cooking because of all the fatty acids it has in it. But then they found out that Moroccan/Argan oil is also good for the skin as well as the hair. 

Benefits of Moroccan oil?
-Shiny
-Takes out some of the frizz
- Adds moisture to dry/damage hair 
-Adds extra moisture to skin
-Might help with Psoriasis 

Downside of Moroccan Oil?

-When someone uses Moroccan Oil in cosmetics, it might not be the best idea. The reason why is because Moroccan Oil has a high concentration of Oleic acid, which can make you have clogged pores as well as irritated any acne. 
-Another reason is some moroccan hair care lines put silicone into their products. So be careful when you are searching for the right moroccan oil for you. 

Apparently, if you like using hot hair treatments, using moroccan oil works just as well. All you have to do is heat it up until it's warm mabye 45 seconds to 1 minute in the microwave. Then apply to hair and put a plastic shower cap over your head and wait for 30 minutes. ( Info)

I personally love the Organix Moroccan Oil and the Josie Maron Argan Oil Hair Serum

Beauty and Random Favorites for 2014!

Happy 2015 Everyone! I hope that the start of 2015 is going well for you all. I am super excited to be sharing my top 2014 products with you. At the end of the blog post, I will be sharing some random favorites as well. I hope you all enjoy! Face: I have two favorite foundations for 2014. The first one is a high end foundation and it is the  Tarte Amazonian Clay 12- Hour Full Coverage Foundation . I have the shade Medium-Tan Honey. This is my special occasion foundation. Since it is pretty expensive ( $38) I do not want to use it every day. My favorite part of this foundation is how much it looks like skin on your face but it looks like a more flawless version of my skin. But I personally do not like the cake face look and I like the more natural look and this foundation gives it to me. The second foundation is from the drugstore and it is the  Loreal True Match Super-Blendable Make up . I am in the shade W3. I heard about this foundation all over YouTube but ...

Summer Foundation Routine 2015

Hi Everyone! I have been wanting to do this blog post for a couple of months now but I really wanted to test out the product and make sure that I really stand by my opinions. Everyone in the beauty community has been talking about the  L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte 24HR Foundation . I have been using my ride or die foundation, the L'Oreal True Match Foundation for years. So I was a little hesitant to try out a new foundation. Once I have found something I love, I don't like to stray away from it. I went to a couple of different places to figure out the best price for the foundation. This foundation can vary from $11 to $13, depending on where you go. I got mine at CVS because I had a coupon. I got my color in 107 Fresh Biege. I want to tell you two very important things about my skin. I have a yellow undertone to my skin and I have dry skin. Especially in my T zone area. So if you have a pink undertone, I do not recommend this foundation. Most of the ...

Bye Bye Stretch Marks!

Hi everyone! I am sorry I have not posted a blog post in a couple of days! I was not feeling well but I am back and ready to blog again! Now this blog post is a little personal but I feel like almost everyone suffers with it.....and it's stretch marks! Stretch marks are when light or dark lines appear on your stomach or thighs when you have gained weight or  when the elasticity in your skin has stretched. I used to have stretch marks on the sides of my stomach and it made me very self conscience of my stomach. The reason why I got stretch marks was because I had gained a lot of weight in a short amount of time. But with these two products the stretch marks are almost gone! Now I will tell you my secret tip to lightening your stretch marks and soon they will be gone! The first product to use is the  Cocoa Butter Formula with Vitamin E Cream Unisex by Palmer's . I have used this for years before I started to get stretch marks. This is a very thick cream that rejuvena...
