Argan Oil

What Is Argan Oil

Derived from the seeds of the Argan Tree, Argan Oil seeds are prized by its local Morrocan people for its nourishing, beautifying and various therapeutic properties.

Argan oil is unique in that to produce just one litre of the premium quality oil, it could take close to 10 hours for local tribeswomen to crack the required amount of nuts needed.

All argan sold right now is made by a women’s collective that shares the revenues among the local Berber tribeswomen. This organisation set up a viable eco reforestation strategy so that the resource of argan oil will not come to an end and the profits that is presently sustaining the women will not vanish. The benefit from the money is giving health care and education to the local women, and assisting the total community in its entirety.

According to the Company it not only acts as a moisturizer but also boasts many other benefits such as getting rid of wrinkles, healing eczema and Psoriasis, stopping acne breakouts, strengthening brittle nails and taming frizzy hair.

Here is a quick lowdown on what I have found out about Argan Oil.

How Argan Oil Skin Care Supposedly Works

Essence Of Argan Oil is a Pure Argan Oil which is 100% natural, and should easily absorb into the skin without having that greasy feel. When absorbed, it then goes to work repairing the collagen and elastin which makes the skin look firmer and more youthful. Argan oil for skin, according to reviewers, has helped them to look younger by firming up their skin and creating softer less wrinkly skin too.

Some people use this oil to help their skin issues like acne, psoriasis, eczema, and other such problems, and the fact is that the reviews I have seen have been overwhelmingly positive about how beneficial the oil is for such issues, which came as a big surprise.

How To Use Argan Oil For Hair

If you are like most girls, then you have probably spent time and money researching and buying products, to find “the one” that is going to rescue you from your dry, flyaway frizzball.

Well I am hear to tell you that it appears Argan Oil is very effective in taming and improving the condition of unruly hair.

The oil is said by the company to be effective at adding shine, lustre, and body to hair whilst removing frizziness. Apparently it heals damaged or over-styled hair with first class results. What’s really beneficial is that people have used this on their hair without having to contend with effects like greasy or weighed down hair. From what I have read, this is a product that really is giving many people the ability to enjoy the hair they want.

A good tip I came across when researching Argan Oil and hair care, is to give your hair an intensive treatment which will improve your dry hair and give it some shine too.

To begin with you need to apply a liberal quantity of oil to dry hair starting at the ends, then wrap in a warm towel and leave for 30 minutes or if you can, leave it in overnight. Wash and style as usual. For dry scalps and dandruff prone hair, massage into the roots. If you do this every week you should see an improvement in soft, smooth and glossy hair.

To relax frizzy hair put a couple of drops into the palms of your hands and rub together, then apply to the ends.

Argan Oil For Nails

the Company claims that nutrients in the Argan Oil, will improve the health of nails, too. The oil can be applied right to your nails, giving you stronger and shinier nails.

Issues that are common with some people like dry, brittle nails and flaking cuticles are said to have been successfully resolved with regular oil treatments directly to the nail and surrounding skin.
