So we had a few beauty team members review the ‘Ubuntu’ collection of hair products and our favorite is the Moisturizing Hair Butter, Moisturizing shampoo and the Light Oil Repairing Mist – a must have. British hairstylist Lee Stafford has launch his new innovative line of haircare, Ubuntu Oils from Africa™ exclusively at Ulta and Ulta.com at the end of this month.
‘Ubuntu’ is an ancient African word meaning kindness (pronounced oo-buun-too). The product line was named for the healing properties of the African oils used, sourced from indigenous African fruits and used by locals for centuries.
Retailing from $9.99 – $14.99, the full haircare line contains four luxurious oils:
Baobab, Mafura, Marula, and Mongongo (**more information below)
Ulta, the largest beauty retailer and one-stop-shop for all beauty needs, will exclusively carry the entire Lee Stafford Ubuntu Oils from Africa collection starting at the end of January 2015 at its over 700 stores nationwide.

The Marula fruit belongs to the same botanical family as the mango, both rich in antioxidants. It is one of the rarest healing oils from Africa and can be easily absorbed thus leaving no heavy residue on the hair. African women have long treasured this rare oil.

This oil has been used for thousands of years by Kalahari Bushmen as a body rub to protect their skin against sun and their harsh desert environment. It reacts with UV light to polymerase into a protective layer. It is rich in Omega-6 and excellent for hydration and renewal.
