In May 2009, American Salon highlights Kahina Giving Beauty products, founder Katharine L'Heureux and the antibacterial and rejuvenating properties of Argan oil. When Katharine L'Heureux founded Kahina-Giving Beauty, she was aiming to create a "skincare line that really works and that women can feel good about really buying." The Kahina-Giving Beauty products are based on 100-percent organic argan oil sourced from the women's cooperatives in rural Morocco. Argan oil, known for its antibacterial and rejuvenating properties, is naturally rich in vitamin E, essential fatty acids and antioxidants.
