FAQ - Argan Oil

Why is Argan Oil called the "Liquid Gold of Morocco" ?

Argan Oil is extracted from the kernels of the Argan tree, a tree that grows exclusively in certain regions of Morocco. The extraction process is long and meticulous, often carried out using traditional methods, making this oil both rare and valuable. Argan Oil is naturally rich in Vitamin E, essential fatty acids, and antioxidants, which explains its worldwide reputation in skincare, hair care, and natural cosmetics.

What is the difference between Cosmetic Argan Oil and Culinary Argan Oil ?

Cosmetic Argan Oil is extracted from unroasted argan kernels, resulting in a lightweight texture that is perfect for skin and hair care. Culinary Argan Oil is made from lightly roasted kernels, giving it a distinctive nutty flavor intended for cooking. These two types of Argan Oil should never be confused, as each is designed for a specific purpose.

How do I use Argan Oil on my face ?

Apply just a few drops of Argan Oil to clean skin every morning and/or evening, gently patting it in to improve absorption. Argan Oil is suitable for most skin types, including combination skin, because it is non-comedogenic, absorbs quickly, and leaves no greasy residue.

Is Argan Oil effective for dry hair and split ends ?

Yes. One of the most popular uses of Argan Oil is for dry, damaged hair, and split ends. Applied to the lengths and ends of the hair, it deeply nourishes, smooths frizz, and enhances natural shine. It can be used as a pre-shampoo treatment or as a leave-in hair serum.

Can Argan Oil be used on nails and cuticles ?

Absolutely. Argan Oil is an excellent treatment for brittle nails and dry cuticles. A gentle daily massage helps strengthen nails while softening cuticles, with visible improvements after several weeks of regular use.

How can I recognize high-quality Argan Oil ?

High-quality 100% Pure Argan Oil has a characteristic golden color and a light nutty aroma. Always check that the oil is 100% pure, with no additives, no fillers, and no synthetic ingredients, to fully benefit from its natural properties.

Can Argan Oil be used as a makeup remover and moisturizer ?

Yes. Thanks to its silky texture, Argan Oil works as an excellent natural makeup remover while also serving as a deeply nourishing moisturizer. Its soothing properties help calm skin irritation, reduce redness, and instantly hydrate the skin.

When stored away from light, heat, and humidity, Argan Oil generally remains fresh for several months after opening. Keeping it in a tightly sealed, dark-colored bottle helps preserve its valuable nutrients, antioxidants, and overall quality for longer.
