Argan oil, also known as "liquid gold of Morocco," is world-renowned for its exceptional properties. Extracted from the kernels of the argan tree (Argania spinosa), a species endemic to southwestern Morocco, it has been used for centuries by Berber women to nourish and protect skin and hair. Its rich yet penetrating texture and light fragrance make it a choice ingredient in natural cosmetic formulations.

Cosmetic indications

Argan oil is ideal for mature, dry, and devitalized skin. Thanks to its regenerating properties, it helps combat skin aging, improves elasticity, and restores radiance to the complexion. It is also recommended to strengthen brittle nails and revitalize dull, damaged hair. For hair care, it provides shine and softness while reducing frizz.

Specific components and properties

Argan oil contains a high proportion of oleic acid (about 45%) and linoleic acid (35%), essential fatty acids for skin regeneration and hydration. It is particularly rich in vitamin E (tocopherols), giving it remarkable antioxidant activity. Its sterols and polyphenols further reinforce its anti-aging and reparative properties. This unique composition explains its ability to protect the skin against free radicals and oxidative stress.

Practical uses

• Facial care: anti-aging serum, revitalizing cream, illuminating treatment.
• Body care: firming oil, nourishing balm for dry skin.
• Hair: oil bath, smoothing serum, repairing mask.
• Nails: strengthening bath for fragile nails.
