Focus on behenic acid: linoleic acid is a saturated long-chain fatty acid, quite rare in vegetable oils. Poorly absorbed in the intestine, it is little used in food, but takes all its interest in cosmetics, thanks to the soft and protective touch it brings and its excellent oxidation stability. Its long-chain structure is ideal for sheathing, smoothing, and nourishing the hair fiber. It is to this characteristic fatty acid that Moringa oil owes its nickname "ben oil" or "behen oil".
