(Giveaway) Kahina Giving Beauty: How Sharing Rituals Helps Others – Product Review

10 January 2011 59 Comments

That is the philosophy of the skincare line, Kahina Giving Beauty. With the strong belief of creating rituals, founder Katharine L’Heureux discovered the effectiveness of Argan Oil when visiting Morocco. With the help of a chemist, Katharine worked to create a simple yet effective organic skincare line.

The oil is extracted from the nut of the Argan tree by the Berber Women in Morocco. “Our line is a reflection of these women: of their culture, their hard work, and their beauty, both inner and outer” states Katharine who donates 25% of profits from Kahina to support initiatives to help these women.

Kahina Giving Beauty

“I strongly believe in the possibility of connecting with people from other cultures and creating an environment in which the little things we do throughout or daily lives positively affect the lives of people around the world. Even in something as seemingly inconsequential as our choice of skin care, it’s about a consciousness of the decisions we make every day,” says Katharine Phillips L’Heureux regarding her inspiration for founding Giving Beauty.

The product line that keeps on giving. Not only do they give back to the Berber Women but this line gives back to us. To our skin, to our hair and to our bodies. With the harsh winter weather upon us, it’s important to keep your skin hydrated. Not only does Argan oil nourish your skin but it helps lock in the natural nutrients. This helps prevent dry, cracked and irritated skin.

Kahina Giving Beauty

The popularity of Argan Oil is on the rise for it’s known anti-aging, moisturizing and antioxidant properties. Not only is this oil good for wrinkles and hydrating your skin but it’s also great for frizzy hair and I personally use the oil for brittle nails. It’s done wonders on my cuticles! And if that’s not enough, this magical oil has been used for stretch marks, psoriasis and acne.

Several companies have jumped on the bandwagon to offer Argan Oil based products. From Sephora to Sally’s Beauty Supply, this miracle worker is popping up on shelves nationwide.

BeautyStat and Kahina-Giving Beauty want to give you a chance to enjoy the benefits of this product. That’s why Kahina-Giving Beauty is giving away a full size Antioxidant Mask and full size Serum to one lucky winner!

    I have been curious about Argan Oil since you initially posted about this line of products. I love the premise of Giving Beauty! Do you know what percentage of the profits goes to the Berber women?

  • Amelia said:

    Tessa, 25% goes back to the Berber Women. You can even read some of the locals stories on Kahina’s website!

  • melissa B said:

    I deff would love to see if this works on my hair.. gets very dry with all the meds I take.. : P Yuck!!

  • Erin @misselj said:

    I would love to try this product because well first of all the name “Kahina Giving Beauty” Is just absolutely beautiful. 2nd the product is an all natural and organic PLUS! I love what i read in regards to the benefits and i am urning to try it out 1st hand and see the results. Being a firm believer in treating your skin as a mother would treat her babies when they are born, our goes through allot, and the way it looks can sometimes dictate the person “within” you. I think it’s important to feel good on the inside but you must also look better then you “feel” on the outside. Unfortunately, it also ties in with age. Now some of us age very well! but allot of older woman reach their prime and still feel like they are in our twenties or thirties inside, but on the outside they “look” about 5,10, or even 15yrs older! Which is probably due to lack of care they took on their skin throughout the years. The saddest part is that by the time they really notice it’s usually to late to change without some type of cosmetic surgery.

    In short; We are given our individual beauty at birth. We then are tought to mold ourselves from day one to bring out each and every strand of beauty that lies within our skin and our souls.

  • Kelly Meiu said:

    I have many health problems and have spent lots on products claiming to help my skin problems related to all the medications I must take. I recently tried argan oil from a sample(not this brand) and so far I think it is helping with my dryness and acne, too! I would love to try this 99% organic product. Also, knowing that it helps others by giving back is such a great thing! Beauty Stat, you are the best! Thank you!

  • Sherri said:

    I noticed my skin feeling dryer as the years go by. I have yet to find something that helps. I would love to try Argan oil or any of these products especially for a great cause.

  • Melissa said:

    I’ve heard nothing but good things about Argan Oil, so, of course, I’m dying to try it!

  • Annie said:

    I LOVE argan oil! I use it on my face, body, and hair. It’s even infused in most of my make up. I LOVE it.

  • maribel said:

    I have a very oily scalp but very dry tips. I tried different types of shampoos and serums and all they did was make it oilier and it only masked the problem not fix it! When I started hearing all the hype about Argan Oil I was curious and started to do some research on it. I purchased a product from Sally’s and I loved it! It’s the only hair product I use and will always use. It made my hair softer and more healthy looking without the oiliness! If it did that to my hair I can’t imagine what Argan oil can to for the skin! I would love to try this product if given the chance! Thanks

  • Kass said:

    I have had frizz instead of hair ever since I had to start coloring the grey that started coming in when I was 25. I am now in my 40′s and have tried nearly every “smoother” for hair and conditioning treatment available. And then I found Argan oil from Kahina Giving Beauty—my hair has beautiful waves and curls like it did when I was a teenager and literally everyone who knows me has commented. Thanx for this wonderful renewal Kahina!

  • Lucy said:

    Love these products! Just started using them. The argan oil has helped with a lifelong problem I’ve had with Psoriasis. I can’t wait to try the rest of the line! Thank you Karina Giving Beauty! Your Premise is lovely. I wish more companies would follow your lead. :)

  • Christina Archuleta said:

    My daughters already use the almond oil on their hair as we all have naturally curly hair and frizz comes with that. My oldest daughter uses the Aragan oil before straightening her hair whick minimizes damage. Love this stuff.

  • Cynthia said:

    Big fan of Kahina argan oil products. The serum is to die for. The smell alone is fabulous, not to mention what it does for your skin. I think I have everything they make now, except the new gift set. Love it all. Highly recommended!

  • Amoni said:

    I would really love to use these products. I haven’t yet tried the ever so famous argan oil skin care. But i am struggling with find a good skin care regimen for my face. I did, however, try Moroccan hair oil from a trail i got from my aunt. The oil did wonders for my hair and i presume that the argan oil skin care will do wonders for my face.

  • Pat Schroedr said:

    ~Cheers~
