Hi,
I'm think of getting Marula Oil, from what I've read, it has
more going for it than Argan Oil. I use Renovat at night,
But sometimes put it on early, and a couple hours later I
could apply the Marula oil. My skin is on the dry side.
Anyone Use Marula Oil, and what do you think of it?
Thanks |

If you are undecided between the two, Shea Terra Organics has an African Wild Oil sampler kit that includes both Marula and Argan Oil (as well as African Baobab and Tamanu), which would allow you to see which one might work best for your skin. Here's the link in case you are interested: http://www.sheaterraorganics.com/African-Wild-Oil-Collection_p_439.html |

Apparently Marula has more vit e and other things that surpass Argan Oil.
Can anyone who used both give a a quick insight. |

Argan Oil was labelled 'Liquid Gold' by NYTimes and not by Moroccon people or Berber women (who makes this oil). Marula was labelled 'Miracle Oil' by the people who make the oil? Right orr wrong? |

I've used both and marula is by far my favorite. I think it hydrates more deeply than argan (it has a much higher % of oleic acid) and gives more of a glow. It still works for oily skin, though.
It's higher in antioxidants than argan. Garden of Wisdom carries inexpensive marula. |

I am a fan of marula and baobob. Might be my skin type (oily). |

Can it be used for face, nails, hair, lips as well? Argan is multi-purpose. |

If Marula Oil was so good how comes no supermodel has picked up on it? And noone talks about it on modelmayhem or even thefashionspot whereas Argan Oil is talked about. Two of the biggest and leading fashion beauty forums. |

I've tried baobab and marula...I like baobab but didn't feel like marula did anything for me. HTH. |

I actually have both from the GOW site and I prefer marula over argan. But I like maracuja better than either one of those. I use the one by tarte and love it for dry skin.

I prefer Marula - much more healing and hydrating imho. I have not tried baobab, but am interested what people think about it. |

I wonder how Marula is comparable to Darphin rose oil and Sonya Dakar omega oil? |
