Marula Oil, cold-pressed from the kernels of the Sclerocarya birrea fruit, is a luxurious, fast-absorbing oil known for its exceptional ability to nourish, protect, and rejuvenate the skin and hair. Native to southern Africa and revered for centuries by local communities, this golden oil is rich in antioxidants, omega fatty acids, and vitamin E, making it a powerhouse for modern natural skincare.

Lightweight yet deeply moisturizing, Marula Oil penetrates quickly without leaving a greasy residue, making it ideal for all skin types—including dry, sensitive, or mature skin. It helps improve skin elasticity, smooth fine lines, reduce redness, and defend against environmental stress. Whether used as a daily facial oil, a booster for moisturizers, or a soothing after-sun treatment, it delivers a radiant, hydrated complexion.

In haircare, Marula Oil adds shine, reduces frizz, and helps repair damaged or brittle strands. It also works well as a nourishing scalp treatment to support overall hair health. Lyfe Herb’s offers 100% pure, cold-pressed, unrefined Marula Oil, free from additives and preservatives—making it an excellent choice for those seeking clean, high-performance botanical care.

  • Restores Skin Radiance
    Promotes a smooth, supple, and luminous complexion by nourishing and strengthening the skin barrier.

  • Hair & Scalp Nourishment
