Product Description

The Argan Tree, Argania spinosa from Sapotaceae family and grows only in Morocco. The trees can live from 150-200 years. For centuries traditional cosmetic products produced from Argania spinosa have been a well kept secret known only to Berber women in Morocco. Argan oil is believed to be one of the rarest oils in the world. To produce Argan oil for cosmetic use, freshly harvested kernels from the fruit of the Argan tree are pressed and filtered through an organic cotton sieve, to extract the aromatic oil. The Argan oil is easily absorbed by the skin. This form of Argan oil is used for the treatment of dermatologic disease (acne, etc). Argan oil extracted by this method is used in Aromatherapy. In Europe, Argan oil has been used in the Aromatherapy industry for a long time, but for some reason it is not well known in the United States and is unavailable in retail stores. Argan oil has almost twice as much vitamin E or a-tocopherol as olive oil and it is much richer in linoleic acids. Its anti-ageing properties, due to high levels of vitamin E and saponins (which soften the skin), are well documented. Tocopherols are very important to human health because of their anti-oxidant actions and free radical scavenger affects. In traditional Moroccan medicine, Argan oil is used for the care of the body and face to counteract the effects of age or weather.

2.0 out of 5 stars I'm a bit skeptical, June 11, 2009

I've been using it for a few days now, and my hair feels brittle after each application. I ordered argan oil from another supplier (free trade) to try to see if there was a difference. HUGE DIFFERENCES. This one smells a bit like licorice; I can't really nail the smell... It also has a adverse effect on my hair. The argan oil that I ordered from the certifiable supplier has a nutty scent and makes my hair VERY soft.

I'm not sure what to make of all this...

This is nice. It has a strange smell but the smell doesn't linger. Makes your skin feel great. It's kind of hard to get out of the bottle without shaking it vigorously, but it isn't any drawback since the product is well worth it. It is a great emollient for skin without harmful and irritating chemicals. All natural is the way to go if you really want your skin to heal and be refined. You can also use it on your nails and hair.

After reading about the wonders of raw argan oil, this was the first product I purchased. I loved it from the beginning - including the pleasant nutty smell, the good absorption by the skin and the difference it made on my face. Combined with unprocessed shea butter, it makes a far superior skin moisturizer than expensive highly processed creams and lotions. Surely will stick with it.
I liked it so much that I sent small bottles for Christmas to female friends above 30.
