How does this oil differ from moroccan oil? is it heavier or lighter? is it better for shine or moisture?

I never use Moroccan oil so I don't know. This oil is not heavy or greasy but keeps the hair smooth

I have Moroccanoil and regret buying it because it is crap. It's almost entirely silicone. Dousing your hair with silicone will look good in the short term but can damage your hair and scalp in the long term, something I've already done by foolishly purchasing and using loads of silicone laden products and am now in the process of trying to fix. There's only a small bit of oil in Moroccanoil which is absurd considering what they charge for it. Contrary to Ulta's faulty ingredient listing there is no silicone in Diamond Oil and that makes it MUCH better.

In my opinion, it's lighter than Morrocan and way better at shine. Hope this helps! :)

Sorry, I don't know the difference between this and the moisture. I use this everyday and love it.

the oil is light, not greasy and definitely moisturizes the skin when used lightly

I prefer the regular/pure oil product, but I can see how this might work for someone with very fine or naturally oily hair. It did not work out well for me because my hair is quite dry. Although my hair is fine in texture, I have a lot of it, so the weight of the pure oil helps keep it under control, where the light formula did not.

This oil is much lighter than the oil I ordered from another vendor. It is light brown rather than dark brown. Is this the way it's supposed to look?

I just bought the Moroccan Oil Intense Hydrating for my hair but haven't really used it yet. I have very thick, very long, kind of coarse hair that has been chemically treated for the last 25 yrs. Paul Mitchell " Super Skinny Serum" was the first oil treatment that worked on my hair and didn't leave it greasy and I could use it when my hair was damp or dry. But I had a Brazillion Blowout Done and they used Keratin. I loved the way it looked but I have heard such great things about Moroccan Oil so I'm going to give it a try to see if it does what I expect it to and hopefully I will love it. My hair needs change once in a while to shake things things up! I just bought the Moroccan Oil Intense Hydrating for my hair but haven't really used it yet.

It does not leave much of a shine. I've been using it for years. Last night when I used it my face was dry after getting out of the shower, this certainly moisturized it. I'm not sure which moisturizing properties you mean.

I bought this product for my hair and not to put on my face so cannot provide a direct feedback on it. However, I can say, it is pretty oily perhaps only very slightly lighter than olive oil. To give an idea of how well this product spreads, I only use 1-3 drops of it on my long very thick hair, any more and it gets too greasy. I do mix this with Dr Bronners liquid soap and use is as a shampoo. It really helped with my dry scalp issue.

No, this is a leave-in product. It isn't greasy at all. Sort of a serum type consistency - very light. I only wash my hair every three days and it doesn't make my hair feel grubby or weigh it down at all. I use it after every shampoo/conditioner. Sometimes I put it on my hair right after I comb it out (pretty damp still) and other times after my hair has air dried a bit. Either way, but I think my hair responds better to it when it's damp, like towel dried damp. It seems to be easier to distribute that way too. I use about 3-4 pumps (I have shoulder-length, fine hair). Apply into palm, then both hands, then run through my hair. I really like this stuff. It's hard to find in the drug store, so this is the best way to buy it for me.

Does well for moisture. But not for shine. I have really thick coarse hair and it helps keep it managed.less breakage and it does not build up on scalp or hair. I wash my hair once a week and use the moisturizer while hair is wet. Blow dry and flat iron. Hair looks natural and healthy. I do use it on dry hair 15 mins before styling daily. Just a lite dab will do. :)

Well it depends on your preference. The oil is going to weigh your hair down, preventing it from bring light and bouncy. If that's not the result you want, leave it on 30 minutes or longer and rinse it out.If you have more questions come just post. Don't want you to feel alone on this new journey. Take care

Im on my 2nd bottle of lotion/cream whereas I only bought 1 bottle of the oil. I like the lotion better. I even started blending the buckthorn lotion with Cerave PM for extra moisturizing and smooth look. The oil left me just a tiny bit dry

Yes, it is. You should try it, really. I used oil of olay for years, and I like this better. Feels lighter, less greasy but very substantial somehow.

You apply Moroccanoil on towel dried, damp hair before any other treatments. not sure why you would need Final Protection if you use the oil.

We bought Sweet Sunnah oil a number of times and were satisfied with the oil. We gave it to others as gifts and they were also satisfied with the quality. Unless someone has used the other product you mentioned and this one, its hard to compare the two oils, specially things like which one is more dark. Why dont you buy their smallest container and test it out, thats what we did. Now that we are happy with it, we buy the 32 oz ones.

I have been using 46 and love it, but it is expensive so I just bought the 40. So far the 40 feels like a matte lotion. The 46 rubs on smoother, but leaves me shiny and the 40 absorbed in my skin instantly and I don't have one bit of shine. I almost feel like the 46 was more of a moisturizer. They feel equally at light. It's to early for me to tell if my skin changes, but I'll update soon.

The Moroccan Argan body lotion has a subtle light natural fresh scent... The Moroccan Argan oil for body treatment has a light relaxed aromatic natural aroma. Both, sre not too strong nor overwhelming!
