One of the most buzzed about ingredients in beauty right now is argan oil. Found in Morocco, it is pressed from the nut of local argan tree’s fruit, where it is has been used for centuries by Berber women who use it as a skin and hair care cure-all for everything beauty—from acne and wrinkles to split ends and scar tissue. It is called the “gold of Morocco” for good reason. Argan oil is rich in vitamin E, loaded with potent antioxidant polyphenols and packed with hydrating essential fatty acids like lineolic acid which deeply moisturizes the skin (or hair!) while protecting it from free radical damage.
Argan oil can be used on its own can be used all over your body, literally from head to toe. Starting at the top, it not only nourishes the scalp and hair, but leaves locks looking shiny without feeling heavy or greasy. You can use it on your skin instead of a traditional facial or body moisturizer, on your nails as a strengthener and on your cuticles to prevent cracks.
However, when argan oil is blended into skin care, body and hair care products the results are even more amazing.
