ard series collection: moringa olive oil soap

ARD is the Arabic word for ‘earth’ or ‘land’. Each soap within the ARD collection is made from all-natural ingredients and a connection to the land of our refugee community in Jerash, Jordan. This collection signifies the importance of the meaning of ‘land’ to refugee and displaced communities around the world and pays tribute to the beauty and the memories left behind in the pursuit of a brighter future.

The ARD blog series shares the backstory behind creating each soap in our ARD Collection, as well as the unique characteristics of each bar and ingredients.

What is moringa?


Moringa derives from the drought-resistant tree part of the Moringaceae family. It was used in ancient Egypt for perfume-making, and in Africa and Asia for consumption. The Moringa plant has incredible health benefits due to its antifungal, antiviral, anti-depressant, and anti-inflammatory properties. Moringa has both beauty benefits and health benefits. By consuming moringa, it is said to help protect the liver, prevent certain types of cancer, and protect the cardiovascular system, however, these are only a few examples of the great benefits moringa is known to provide.

Using moringa on the skin has some amazing benefits. Sitti’s Moringa Olive Oil Soap is surely going to leave your skin feeling nourished and refreshed and here’s why:

1. Reduces breakouts: Moringa can reduce breakouts and diminish blemishes and pigmentation when applied topically to the skin.
