As cosmetic creators, we have always strived to design the most beautiful and efficient skincare, taking our inspirations both from the wonders

of nature and from some of the most sophisticated cos-metic discoveries worldwide. However, with Katima'A, the result went far beyond our expectations.It was in the middle of the Sahara desert that Argan oil was first unveiled to us and inspired us on a unique journey of discovery, where very quickly it became apparent that we had found not only the most precious active ingredient in the world but that it would revolu-tionize both our vision of cosmetics and the vision of all the people and professionals who tried it.Since this incredible revelation, we have kept on resear-ching ways that we can not only enhance the natural properties of this unique beauty treasure but also how to take them further. Our ambition is to bring some-thing new, a line that meets the highest expectations in terms of efficacy whilst taking the senses to new horizons. Katima'A continues to work with some of the world’s top scientific bodies (European Research Programme, RISTOMED, leading Universities throughout Europe and above all the constant support and expertise of the leading Argan scientist, Professor Zoubida Charrouf, from the University of Rabat), and was one of the pioneers in aiding the preservation of UNESCO's bios-phere in the region and creating fair trade conditions for the women who work with this precious fruit.

An ancient treasure

Amongst all its natural treasures, Morocco shelters the essence of Berber women’s beauty. There, at the heart of a unique forest surviving the never ending summer, the fruits of the Argan tree have revealed a precious oil gifted with outstanding beauty and health promoting properties: Argan oil.Found in the South West of Morocco, where the climate is semi desert, the Argan tree is a unique phenomenon. The Argan forest, once threatened by extinction, has stood as the last rampart against the desert’s expansion for millenaries, until in 1999 it was classified as a world biosphere by UNESCO. Wanting to be part of preserving such a precious and natural inheritance, LA MAISON DE L’ARGAN chose to put Argan oil at the forefront by making it the key active ingredient of its entire skincare line: Katima’A.

Fair trade ethics

In order to educate the local populations on the Argan forest, it was essential to raise their awareness on the benefits of protecting Argan trees and researching ways of making it a key to their development. LA MAISON DE L’ARGAN has been the historical contributor of ethical fair trade by bringing the production tools and logistic supports, necessary to the creation of the Ait Baha cooperative. By giving to the latter the function of LA MAISON DE L’ARGAN’s unique Argan oil supplier, the process has enabled to ensure regular revenues to these women; for the first time in history they have become independent and have benefitted from a real social status. From this strong will to preserve a very fragile forest resource and make sure its fruits can reward their millenary guardians, we have worked hard to constantly improve the quality of our oil, thus strengthening our difference.

The beauty secrets of Argan

Argan oil, the rarest oil in the world stands as one of the most important cosmetic discoveries of the century. Its outstanding beauty promoting virtues anti-ageing, protective, hydrating, smoothing and regenerating make it a powerful all-round beauty enhancer. By acting on all the factors that cause skin ageing, Argan oil is an unavoidable ally to fight against the effects of time. Composed of a high concentrations of tocopherols (2.5 times more than in olive oil), Argan oil is abundant in antioxidants and anti free radical properties, which play a major part in wrinkle prevention. By stimulating cells’ communication and restoring the hydro lipid layer, Argan oil ensures a global regenerating action.

Quality Commitment & eco efficiency.

To reach the highest quality, LA MAISON DE L’ARGAN has established rigorous quality controls at each stage of the production process. Ensuring the Argan nuts are collected and pressed at the cooperative and thus reaching complete mastery of every fabrication stage, LA MAISON DE L’ARGAN introduces the notion of “Cru d’Argan”, enabling to obtain a Premium Argan oil quality.A blend of both tradition and cosmetic expertise, in com-pliance with the European cosmetic standards, Katima’A skincare products are formulated in a French laboratory through a unique and patented eco-friendly mixing techni-que. This technology, known under the name of “ambient-temperature manufacturing process”, enables to preserve all the actives principles of Argan oil whilst reducing the energy consumption significantly (50 times less than the traditional formulation process).

The cosmetic intelligenceof an outstanding skincare line

Quality and efficacy have always been the core values at the heart of Katima’A philosophy. Pioneers in the Argan protection and research; and with a real commitment to environmental concerns, Katima’A now unveils the concept of “Cosmetic Intelligence” by combining Argan oil with the most recent cosmetic discoveries as well as precious active ingredients sourced throughout the world (Padina Pavonica, Aloe Vera, Chitosan Succinamide, Shea Butter…), in a bath of delicate fragrances and textures where every product comes to be a unique experience.Highly concentrated in active ingredients and formulated from a 100% pure Argan oil, the 19 references of the line are enriched with a natural preservation system and do not contain any chemical preservatives (such as parabens). Wil-ling to answer the most demanding of skin needs, Katima’A skincare products are suitable for every skin type.

Behind a name ... a story

Katima'A literally means "the woman who carries a secret." Our choice to distribute our products through highly exclu-sive networks, enabling qualified and personal advice, has no other reason than gathering those who want to discover and share Katima’A core values. More than a cosmetic line, Katima’A is a company where sharing is a way of life.

Katima’A at the forefrontof Argan scientific research

From the very beginning, Katima’A has always worked to be aware and act on Argan properties’ enhancement and disco-veries. Willing to be pro-active in Argan related research, LA MAISON DE L’ARGAN has initiated, with the help of several partners within Europe and leading Argan scientist Profes-sor Zoubida CHARROUF, a large programme of research in order to reveal and qualify the physiological benefits of its nutritional Argan oil, Native. Compared to other nutrients and combined with a healthy diet, this clinical study aims at showing the virtuous properties of Argan oil on several disorders caused by the ageing process on elderly people.

Central and decisive, this project to improve health and living conditions - done in cooperation with the European Union and part of the “SEVEN FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME” – confirms LA MAISON DE L’ARGAN’s goal to valorize Argan oil, not only by qualifying their oil but, above all asserting their commitment to ethical and qualitative concerns.
