Our organic Argan Oil is harvested from trees that grow wild, high in Morocco’s Atlas mountain region. This nourishing and Vitamin E-rich ‘dry’ oil has been gaining popularity in recent years for its ability to deeply moisturize skin and hair without leaving a greasy residue. It has a very mild, fruity, nutty aroma, and is processed from the unroasted kernels to preserve the beneficial antioxidants.

Argan oil contains an unusually high concentration of Vitamin E (tocopherols) and a form of Vitamin A (carotenes), vital components for maintaining beautiful skin and hair. It is particularly useful in mature skin preparations, mostly attributable to its high fatty acid and essential fatty acid content. Our cosmetic grade (non-roasted) Argan Oil may be incorporated into your skin and body care preparations, or can be used on its own. As a ‘dry’ oil, Argan is best used at 5% to 10% of the fixed (carrier) oil portion of massage formulas.

Good argan oil has a nice amber hue, applies smoothly (it should not feel gritty), and absorbs easily.
