Use this powerful plant oil for its cleansing properties, to moisturize dry scalp, and to promote stronger hair. Moringa oil has been shown to have good antimicrobial activity against numerous bacterial and fungal species. This oil is 40 percent monounsaturated fatty acids, with 70 percent of that being oleic acid as well as a high content of vitamin E. It can also be used to soothe acneic skin types.
