Extracted from the fruits of the argan tree, that mainly grows in southwestern Morocco, argan oil is produced by cold pressing the kernel of its fruit.
Its exceptional moisturizing properties makes it a real ally for taking care of your skin.
What are its virtues?
Containing high levels of Omega 6 and 9 and vitamin E, argan oil is a powerful emollient and antioxidant. It improves the skin's elasticity and firmness, regenerates its cells and restores its hydrolipidic film, helping to fight the signs of aging. Acting as shield against external aggressions (climate, pollution, etc.), argan oil helps relieve skin irritation.
