Why is it worth introducing argan oil to your care?
Argan oil is produced from the oily kernels of argan trees, labelled by the Moroccans as ‘the trees of life’. It is one of the most versatile and universal cosmetic oils, which is equally appreciated by people with normal, dry, mature, and oily skin. Why is it worth introducing it into your care?
Argan oil: properties and application
Argan oil contains natural tocopherols (vitamin E), phenols, phytosterols (plant sterols), carotenoids (vitamin A), squalene, and valuable fatty acids, including Omega 3, Omega 6, and Omega 9.
You can apply it directly to your body, face, hair, and nails. For your hair, it’s enough to massage a few drops of oil into the hair ends – there is no need to rinse! It is also great for hair oil treatment, where you apply oil to the entire locks and scalp and leave it in for at least 30 minutes before washing.
It also works as a booster to all kinds of cosmetics – creams, lotions, conditioners, and masks, increasing their restorative and moisturizing properties.
Thanks to many active ingredients, it is a powerful antioxidant with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects. It effectively restores and strengthens the hydrolipid skin barrier, which works as a natural shield, protecting the skin against microorganisms, drying out, and elements. Argan oil, often labelled as the elixir of youth, prevents wrinkles. This versatile product is the right choice for dry, oily and problematic skin.
