The great strength of Argan oil is its versatility. For centuries Moroccan women have used it to protect, moisturize and strengthen their skin, hair, nails, feet, and more. It can be used on its own, applied directly, or it can be combined with existing beauty products as an additional “super-ingre-dient” to maximize their e ectiveness. Below are ten of the most common uses for this amazing product:
Basics of Using Argan Oil
Apply Directly: Argan oil can be applied to your skin directly from the dropper or by rst applying a few drops to your fingertips. A little goes a long way: you will rarely need more than a few drops to experience the full e ects of our oil. Everyone is different: Remember every person’s skin (and hair) is different. Be sure to try di erent amounts of oil to nd the right number of drops for you.
General Purpose Moisturizer
Apply 2-5 drops of Argan oil to the ngertips of your index and middle fingers. Gently massage the oil into your skin, focusing on dry spots Give the oil a few seconds to absorb into your skin If necessary, remove any excess oil with a tissue Repeat steps 1-4 every morning and every night before bed
FACE
Pre-Foundation Moisturizer Use your favourite facial cleanser to ensure that your skin is as clean as possible Before applying foundation, massage 2-3 drops of Argan oil into your face Wait 10-15 minutes. Continue applying the rest of your makeup. When you’re finished, you should notice an extra, healthy glow!
This is Argan oil’s primary use.
Fatty acids – that’s an amazingly high percentage, and it’s the key to why this precious oil is the ultimate organic solution for relieving and healing dry skin, sun damage, scar tissue, blemishes and imperfections of all kinds. The unique chemistry of Argan oil has also been proven to actually retain moisture and maintain its healing e ects over long periods of time. You won’t have to constantly re-apply to see the effects, in other words.
Anti-Aging Treatment

If necessary, remove any excess oil with a tissue Repeat steps 1-4 every morning and every night before bed
One of the major ingredients in this miracle oil is Vitamin E, of which it has a tremendous amount. Vitamin E is an anti-oxidant, and it tracks and destroys free radicals in your skin. This is perhaps the most signi cant factor in keeping your skin young, fresh, and supple. Vitamin E is fat-soluble, which means that it can in ltrate and seal from within the cells of your skin. That makes the e ects of the oil more profound, and longer-lasting. Using Argan oil regularly can protect your skin from the effects of aging, and even help to reverse them.
SKIN CONDITIONS

The secret to the amazing glow of these women is Argan oil, produced from the legendary “Tree of Life,” ArganiaSpinosa. No other natural oil produce such incredible results with such consistency. Just one more reason that Argan oil is among the most precious natural substances in Africa, and indeed the world over.
