In Depth: Argan Oil

🌰 What Is Argan Oil?

Organic Argan Oil is a nutrient-rich plant oil extracted from the kernels of the Moroccan Argania spinosa tree.

Naturally rich in vitamin E (tocopherols) and skin-loving fatty acids, it’s prized for helping skin feel soft, supple, and comfortable.

Because it absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy finish, argan oil is versatile and loved in both everyday skincare and DIY formulations.
