The argan tree is found only on the Moroccan coast around Essaouira and Agadir and produces an oil that is exceptionally rich in essential fatty acids (
Omega 6 and Omega-9) and sterols.
Omega-6 can restore moisture-locking layer by reinforcing cellular adhesion, while Omega-9 can strengthen the hydrolipidic film to lock the skin moisture.
With its “Double Moisture Locking” properties, 100% organic Argan Oil gives your skin a lasting moisture boost without clogging the pores.A real beauty secret for Berber women, the oil is made from un-roasted argan kernels; it is also traditionally used for massaging joints and for nail and hair care.
It has been known for centuries for its repairing properties on dry and sensitive skin. Fair Trade:
