Argan Oil

Argan oil is made from the seeds that are growing in the argan trees in Morocco. The seeds are hand smashed by the Moroccan women and transformed in this amazing oil, which is known for all its benefits as liquid gold.

We are not always lucky when we find a product with argan oil in it because there is actually a small amount of it in the product. Most of ingredients are bad for you, like silicone and parabens.

Personally, when I buy a product with a certain element that I wish to contain (like Argan oil) I look on the ingredients list to see which place it’s occupying. I don’t know if that’s really true, but I heard that if it is in the first ingredient, that means that the product contains a large amount of it. So if you find, let’s say, Argan oil, in the first 2 or 3 positions, that product contains loads of it.

Ok now the benefits:

Massage a few drops of argan oil into your skin for a better moisturizing experience;
You can add a few drops in your home made face mask. This will moisturize and nourish your skin;
Put a little on your wet hair, on your lengths and tips for shiny, moisturized hair;
Massage your scalp with Argan oil and leave it. In the morning you will have a soft, shiny hair;
Argan oil is a good softener for hands, cuticles , feet and heels;
Add a few drops in your bath, for not only a relaxing bath but also for softening your body;
Used like a body oil, helps your skin get healthy, moisturized;
Is also good for stretch marks and cellulite;
A few drops can be used as a lip balm, for softening and nourishing your dry lips;
You can add it in your face cream, if you want an extra-moisturizing ingredient.

!!! Remember when you buy a product that contains argan oil that it can have less than necessary for its magic.

The best way to go, is to buy an original organic oil made in Morocco and imported in your country. If you can’t find that, you can try some brands that are known for the quality of their argan oil products like Moroccan Oil or Organix Moroccan Argan Oil.
