ORGANIC ARGAN OIL: Cosmetic Argan Oil To Rejuvenate Your Skin, Hair & Nails

Pure argan oil is deemed to be one of the world's richest natural sources of vitamin E, which is a renowned anti-aging and anti-wrinkle ingredient, especially liked for its antioxidant powers.

It also contains 80% essential fatty acids (to help reduce inflammation), as well as squalene (to help keep our skin soft), phytosterols (to help protect collagen) and phenolic compounds (to guard against free radicals).

All these elements combine to offer users a myriad of beauty benefits, including:

Softer skin

Diminished wrinkles

Reduced scarring

Balanced sebum production (helps clear acne and monthly blemishes)

Relief for eczema and psoriasis (even for babies)

Shiny hair

Softer cuticles

Face:
If you are using cosmetic grade raw argan oil, you only need to use a few drops for your entire face. A little really does go a long way. You can apply it at night as an intensive moisturizing treatment and/or in the morning as a base for your makeup. The oil penetrates easily, does not leave an oily residue and can even be used around the eye area.

First, cleanse your face using a cleansing agent that is appropriate for your skin type.

Next, use a toner or splash your face with cold water.

Finally, take a few drops of argan oil in the tips of your fingers, rub fingers together gently to warm the oil, then apply to face, including eye area. If time permits, spend a few moments lightly massaging your skin and gently tapping around the eye area to help the argan oil penetrate and give your skin a boost of energy.

Body:
Simply apply as you would any other lotion or oil after a bath or shower. Allow a few minutes for the argan oil to penetrate before you get dressed or get into bed.

Nails:
If your nails and cuticles are looking a little worse for wear, simply soak them in a mixture of argan oil and lemon juice for 10 minutes (or even overnight). This will not only soften your cuticles and limit nail breakage but will also give a healthy shine to your nails.

Hair:
For an intensive hair treatment to improve dry scalp and add shine, apply a generous amount of oil to dry hair, then wrap in a warm towel and leave for 30 minutes. Wash and style as usual. Raw organic argan oil is best for this.

TIP 1: Start by using raw argan oil at night only to see how your skin likes it. You can then progress to twice a day if your skin needs extra hydration or you can simply apply it to dry or wrinkle-prone areas.

TIP 2: Raw argan oil has a distinctive natural odor which may deter more sensitive-nosed people from using it. If that is the case, opt for the aromatherapy version (see above for recommendations).
