When we launched ZAYNA, we didnโt start with a long list of products.ย We started with one, something simple, natural, and close to our hearts.
Pure Argan Oil.
In Morocco, Argan Oil is more than a beauty secret. Itโs been part of everyday life for generations. Itโs used in the kitchen, drizzled over warm bread and honey.ย Itโs applied to the skin after a long day in the sun.ย Itโs massaged into the hair before brushing, and into hands when theyโve dried from life. Itโs one of Moroccoโs true treasures, loved for its purity, versatility, and healthy benefits.
As a Moroccan woman, I grew up seeing how powerful this ingredient is. Itโs familiar. Itโs trusted. Itโs real. And I wanted to bring it out into the world in its most pure form, without changing it, without adding anything, just honoring it. The idea for ZAYNA began with this oil. Before the brand, there was Argan.ย
We didnโt invent Argan Oil. Itโs been here for centuries. But we didnโt want to createย just another product either.
We wanted to create something meaningful.ย Something that brings value.ย Something that feels honest, that brings people closer to nature, and maybe even closer to themselves.
While our inspiration begins in Morocco, our journey continues in Switzerland, Itโs where we live, and a place that reflects our values of quality, simplicity, and care.ย Both places are part of who we are. And together, theyโve shaped what weโre creating.
โจWhat ZAYNA means to us
Choosing a name for this brand wasnโt just about sound, it was about meaning. We wanted something that carried the essence of what we believe in. Thatโs why we chose the nameย ZAYNA,ย a word that means beautifulย in Arabic. itโs not about surface or trends.
Itโs the kind of beauty thatโs quiet. Thoughtful. The beauty of traditions passed down. Of natural textures. Of taking care, slowly and simply.
Itโs the beauty of whatโs real, not perfected.ย And thatโs the heart of everything we create.
This first product reflects who we are and what we stand for:
Simplicity. Authenticity. Purpose.
Inspired by the richness of Moroccan heritage, weโre creating what comes next with the same intention, something beautiful, something thoughtful, and always grounded in care.
This is where our story begins. And weโre so glad youโre here to be part of it.
