Pure Argan Oil from Moroccan Women's Cooperatives
I've been an argan oil fan since one of my family's early trips to Morocco. Nothing seems to treat skin and hair better! Pure argan oil is actually the only product that I've found to be really effective on dry winter skin and hair. It's both a look-good and feel-good product: brands like Arganium and Moroccan Buzz are pure, organic, and purchased from women's cooperatives at fair trade prices. It's good for you, good for the environment, and good for rural Moroccan women as your purchase fosters their economic and social independence.
As more and more beauty editors, stylists, and celebrities - including Eva Mendes, Charlize Theron, Madonna, Kim Kardashian, Scarlet Johansson, and Katy Perry - swear by the benefits of argan oil, countless new argan products have popped up. Note that many products include only a small percentage of argan oil. Be sure to check the label. Brands like Moroccan Buzz and Arganium are 100% pure oil from the Argania Spinosa tree nut.
Here's how to use luxurious, multi-purpose argan oil (directions are also included in our Arganium product inserts):
Rub a few drops between palms of hands and apply to face, hair, nails and body.
Face: To nourish and moisturize skin and promote youthful glow, immediately after cleansing face and blotting dry, gently massage a few drops into skin. Can be used alone or after applying other moisturizers to lock in hydration. Can be used under makeup.
Hair: As therapy for dry, damaged hair or scalp, apply from root to ends and leave in for up to 30 minutes, shampoo and condition as usual. To add shine to dull, or color-treated hair, rub a few drops between palms of hands and apply to clean, dry hair. To reduce frizz and the appearance of split ends, rub a few drops between palms of hands and apply to clean, dry hair, concentrating on the ends.
Nails and Cuticles: To treat dry cuticles and add shine to nails, rub a drop into each nail and cuticle.
Body: To treat and prevent dry skin, massage into towel-dried skin immediately after bath or shower. Massage into dry areas: elbows, heels, knees.
