Our Ingredients
Every ingredient tells a story. Every formula carries a land.
Argan Oil
Liquid gold of the Atlas
Hand-pressed by women of the Atlas from wild argan trees that grow only in Morocco — one of the rarest trees on earth.
Cold-pressed from the kernels of the argan tree, our argan oil is extracted using traditional stone-press methods that preserve every nutrient. Unrefined, unfiltered, and delivered to you as nature intended.

Prickly Pear Oil
The rarest oil in the world
Extracted from the seeds of the Barbary fig cactus that grows wild across the Atlas. One litre of oil requires over a tonne of fruit — harvested entirely by hand.
Prickly pear seed oil contains the highest concentration of vitamin E of any plant oil known. It is the rarest and most precious facial oil we carry — and for very good reason.

Nila
The sacred blue of Morocco
Nila is a rare Moroccan indigo used for centuries in the Atlas as both a beauty ritual and a sacred symbol of protection. Sourced from Atlas artisans who have kept the tradition alive.
Nila — pure Moroccan indigo — is one of the most sacred and least understood beauty ingredients in the world. In ancient Moroccan tradition, it was used to cleanse the skin, strengthen hair, protect from sun, and even ward off the evil eye. We use authentic nila powder in our masks, scrubs, and soaps.

Aker Fassi
The original Moroccan rouge
Aker Fassi is made from dried pomegranate skin and poppy petals, sourced from the Atlas valleys where pomegranate trees have grown for centuries. It is Morocco’s original natural lip and cheek pigment.
Long before cosmetics existed, Moroccan women used aker fassi — a vibrant red powder — to stain their lips and cheeks. Mixed with argan oil it becomes a nourishing tinted balm; dissolved in water, a natural blush. We use it as a natural colouring in select lip and skin care products.
