The New York Times called argan oil “liquid gold,” with proven benefits and an amazing smell its
no wonder why it’s a massive hit throughout the world.

It’s created from the kernels of the nuts of the argan tree. The tree called “the tree of life” by
Moroccans is uniquely exclusive to the region.

Scientist named this region the “Arganeraie Biosphere Reserve.”

The region is protected by UNESCO and is considered to be one of the purest oils in the world.

What’s even more surprising is that local Berber women work in cooperatives and control the
argan oil industry.
These cooperatives share profits among the local Berber tribes, aiding in health care, education,
and the creation of jobs.

The profits from the argan oil industry have also been invested in establishing ecosystem
reforestation, ensuring that supply won’t run out.

The reforestation also hopes to ensure an ever green process in which argan oil cultivation can
withstand the test of time.

The argan oil industry in Morocco produces for over 10% of the Moroccan population, helping
sustain the lives of 3.5 million people.

Where does Argan oil come from?

The tree that produces argan oil is pictured below:

Argan Oil of Morocco

The majority of the argan oil production and trade is owned and operated by the Berber women
(natives), who have been relying on pure argan oil from Morocco from local trees to keep their
skin healthy and youthful for centuries.

It is also a major source of work and income for these people and makes up a big part of the
economy in Morocco.
Traditionally, the argan oil of Morocco will be consumed with breakfast, usually by dipping bread
in it or drizzling it on couscous and pasta.

It is said that pure argan oil sales feed upwards of 10% of the Moroccan people.

For many generations (dating centuries back), natives who have lived in the Argan regions near
the Argan Forest inside Morocco have found a way to press the nuts in order to extract this
valuable oil.

It can sometimes take up to 8 hours of hard, strenuous labor to crack and extract the oil from
nuts that are needed for a 1-liter bottle of oil.

Although the labor is harsh and tiresome, it is also a source of empowerment to the indigenous
women who do most of the production and work.

Since then it’s been used as a supplement and natural remedy for a variety of different things;
ranging from nourishing skin and hair to healing wounds and providing relief for rashes.

What was once a well-kept secret between a group of women in Morocco, is now considered a
miracle remedy, specifically for skin and hair nails.

This can be attributed to the extraordinarily high concentration of vitamins it contains

(specifically vitamin A and E).

Contrary to popular belief, however, argan oil was not isolated to only Morocco.

Many throughout the world have caught on to the many argan oil benefits, and have since used
it actively as well.
Predominantly, argan oil is used for hair – both by men and women alike. The reason for that
could be because using argan oil for hair makes for one of the most effective and natural
moisturizers.

What is the shelf life of Argan Oil?

Argan oils shelf life is estimated to be between 3-6 months depending on what kind of argan oil
you buy. For that reason, it is recommended to use it consistently for the first 6 months.

It should be kept away from direct sunlight and sealed tight. Smaller bottles of argan oil are
recommended to benefit from its nutrients without loosing its benefits.

Bigger bottles of argan oil might loose those benefits since it will sit on your shelf longer.

How to use Argan Oil

The dosage of argan oil for internal usage is 1-2 tablespoon a day. To fully feel the benefits argan
oil, consume 1 tablespoon in the morning, and 1 tablespoon at night.

It should not be used to cook with has heat can reduce some of the benefits. Rather it should be
consumed with food, or added to food like salad dressing.

The dosage of argan oil for external usage varies depending on the purpose of treatment.

When applied to hair for conditioning or shampooing, enough should be applied to fully nourish
from the scalp to the ends of your hair.

The same applies for overnight hair masks and styling.

When it comes to your skin, argan oil should be applied evenly throughout the body. It absorbs
well so don’t worry about a greasy feel.

When it comes to your nails, it should be applied evenly to the nails of your feet and hand.

Argan Oil for Hair

When it comes to restoring a glossy, natural shine and repairing split ends, there are few, if not
none, that comes close to the potent benefits argan oil has to offer.

Not only is it used as a common styling agent, but it also has effective capabilities of taming frizz
and giving hair shine.

It’s been proven to make hair silkier, softer and shinier. Using argan oil to moisturize your hair is
also extremely easy and simple; just apply some of the oil to your palms and massage into your
hair.

There are many ways to take argan oil, and it comes in many different types of products (which
we’ll go over later).

Is Argan Oil Good for Hair?

Undoubtedly, argan oil benefits the hair unlike anything else. It’s non-greasy essence makes it
perfect for styling your hair while simultaneously getting rid of split ends!

It protects against the heat of curlers, hair dryers, and even flat irons! It does all these things
together while promoting a healthy, vibrant shine.

What does Argan oil do for your Hair?

Argan oil benefits hair by promoting hair growth and thickness, adding a natural shine,
moisturizing, and repairing. When applied to your hair, it prevents drying by coating the hair
shaft.

By proxy, it also prevents environmental damage that way. This makes your hair a lot less prone
to breakage from the heavy amounts of brushing and styling.

Overall, argan oil benefits your hair by making it a lot more manageable and healthier at the
same time.

Argan Oil Hair Treatment

A popular method for restoring dry, brittle hair is by performing a deep conditioning treatment
with argan oil overnight – once every week.

To do this, just warm 5-10 drops on your palms and gently massage into your scalp.

Continue to apply to your hair, all the way down the ends. Then twist your hair and put on a
shower cap. The shower cap will help keep your pillow case oil-free, while also enabling better
penetration of the oil into your scalp.

Once you arise in the morning, simply wash your hair as you would any other day.

For those suffering from dandruff, it’s highly recommended to do these overnight treatments
twice a week for as many weeks you need (until dandruff disappears).

The reason why argan oil benefits the hair so much is due to the rich amounts of vitamin E it
contains. Vitamin E is known to promote healthy hair growth and even hair regrowth!
This is due to the antioxidants found in the oil – which help replenish cells and encourage them
to produce quality, healthy hair.

Argan Oil for Hair Growth

When the moment in life comes where your hair is thinning and you’re beginning to see more
and more of your scalp, the denial might at first prevent you from taking action.

There are options, however; using argan oil for hair loss as a remedy is a great way to deliver the
nutrients that your hair is starved from.

Argan oil benefits those suffering from hair loss significantly.

While the oil was initially used to treat a variety of different skin diseases, it’s natural properties
make it a great natural remedy for dandruff, irritation, and dryness.

On top of promoting healthy replenished hair, argan oil benefits the hair by also making it much
thicker and stronger – giving you that healthy look that everyone is looking for.

It is one of many natural hair oils that can help with hair loss by promoting hair growth in both
men and women.

It is probably the reason why many beauticians and dermatologists often recommend argan oil
as a cosmetic treatment for both hair and skin alike.

It does this by improving your hair and scalp health from the roots, thereby effectively treating
the cause of the problem.

Since the skin on our scalps contains hormones, argan oil has also been proven to be effective in
helping regulate and balance hormone levels.

On top of this, it also helps improve blood circulation to your scalp. This, in turn, helps your hair
follicles get the nutrients required for them to keep growing.

Pure Argan Oil for Hair

The best argan oil for hair is by far the pure argan oil, which contains 100% argan oil and no
other byproducts.

The reason why pure argan oil benefits your hair most is due to the fact that there aren’t any
chemicals added to the product, which ensures no damage will be done to your hair.

Another great benefit of pure argan oil is that it’s imported directly from Morocco. See, the
argan oil of Morocco still stands as the highest quality and purest in the world today.

Something about the trees and the atmosphere in that region that makes it the perfect breeding
ground for the finest quality argan oil that exists in the whole globe.

Argan Oil for Beards

Argan oil benefits the beard in many ways; from adding shine and softness while simultaneously
making it richer and thicker.

It also moisturizes the skin beneath the beard that usually gets neglected. Starting to use argan
oil on your beard is a great way to show some love to that skin.
It also acts as a natural brilliantine (hair softener), giving your hair a soft texture without the
overwhelmingly heavy grease buildup that many other beard oils and waxes produce.

And for those who are looking to add a bit more density and thickness to their beards, argan oil
can come in very handy for stimulating growth and promoting beard thickness too.

Argan Oil Products

There are a variety different types of products that contain argan oil within them. Many popular
skin and hair care companies are beginning to introduce products with argan oil.

From shampoos to conditioners, to soaps and lotions, nowadays you can expect to find argan oil
as an ingredient in skin moisturizers, hair conditioners, and anything that has to do with skin and
hair.

This is due to the fact that it’s popularity has been steadily rising over the past 10 years as more
and more are becoming aware of the numerous benefits argan oil provides.

The main reason why so many companies are introducing products with it is that of the
tremendous results it provides after only a couple of instances of argan oil uses.

Pure Argan Oil

To start off with what I think is the cream of the crop, there is nothing better than pure argan oil.

The more you expand into other products and categories, the more diluted those products
usually are with other chemicals and byproducts.

For me, I’d rather have 100% of the real thing, then a half diluted mystery. Not to say that other
argan oil products aren’t good; you just have to be aware of what’s inside the product you’re
looking at so that you can make sure that you’re getting the real deal.

After looking at quite a few different brands of argan oil, I came up with a short list of tips that’ll
help point you in the right direction when you’re out shopping or browsing online.

Here are 5 things to look for to ensure that the argan oil brands you’re looking into have pure
argan oil:

The Ingredients should be short – there shouldn’t be a long list of chemicals found on the
ingredient list on the bottle.It should simply say “100% Argan Oil” or even “100% Argania
Spinosa Kernel Oil” (its scientific name).If it has anything else listed beside that, you should
probably take a look at a few more brands

There is no such thing as ‘cheap argan oil’ – The process of making and producing argan oil is a
difficult one that takes a lot of time and effort.Just the process of extraction takes hours of
manual labor, which costs a lot of money.That said, there isn’t such a thing as cheap argan oil. If
you see that a brand claims to be selling you 2-ounce bottles of argan oil for only $10, you may
want to take some time to rethink and consider.That isn’t to say that the highest priced argan oil
is the best either. Sometimes the ones that are priced the highest are really just a decent
product with great marketing.I suggest you find something economical for you that’s within your
price range and test out different brands and products to find which one gets you the best
results.You may find some that are great in taste but don’t do much for your body, while others
may taste a bit worse but do wonders for your health.

It should smell right – This one is a bit more difficult to go over briefly, so I’ll dive in a bit more
details here.First off, you should avoid argan oil that smells terrible – it has most likely gone
rancid.If the argan oil smells amazing, so amazing that it makes you want to eat it, then it might
just be that it’s the argan oil that’s intended for cooking and culinary use.The difference here is
that these argan oil kernels are roasted first, which will be great for your food – but not so great
for your hair and skin.As for the argan oil that smells like nothing (or very light), there might be a
reason to be suspicious.One of a few things could happen; it could be entirely fake (either
completely diluted or at least diluted beyond recognition), it may be that its machine-made
(which places the oil through a deodorization process), and it may just be the change in
seasons.The real smell of argan oil is a genuine, raw ‘nutty’ scent that can be unique to the first-
timer, but eventually turns into a scent of raw luxury.The beautiful (and unfortunate) thing about
argan oil is that once it’s applied to your hair or skin, it gets absorbed almost immediately –
making the scent disappear along with it.

The texture should be smooth & silky – Argan oil should be so smooth that it disappears into
your skin almost immediately after application.It shouldn’t feel watered down or slimy, or sticky.
It definitely shouldn’t sting you either. Whatever your skin condition may be, argan oil should be
a source of relief that provides a soothing effect when used – not a source of pain.

The results should be amazing – We all know that the proof is in the pudding, and the only way
to truly know if a product is amazing is to use it yourself and find out how it is first-hand.Many
people drop their prescription medication (for eczema) and replace it with pure argan oil when
they find that it’s more effective and works better.A good rule of thumb to go by when
measuring if argan oil works for you is to see if you’re absolutely in love with it by the time you
finish your bottle.If that doesn’t speak enough for itself, then I don’t know what will.

Argan Oil Shampoo

Many people have seen up to double of the hair nourishing benefits of argan oil when they
added an argan oil shampoo to their daily regimen.

You should be careful however and make sure you take the time necessary to find out if the
product is worth investing your money into. Not all Moroccan oil shampoos are created equally.

Many of you already know that a lot of shampoos out on the market contain ingredients that are
actually really bad for your hair, and a lot of argan oil shampoos also contain extra chemicals
added so it’s something to be aware of.

To find a good, pure argan oil shampoo, you need to look for something that actually has pure
argan oil inside it.

Similar to how you would look for a bottle of pure argan oil, the fewer ingredients, and chemicals
it has on the label, the better.

And if it’s missing the main ingredient (argan oil), then it’s a hoax.

Another ingredient to try to stay away from is sulfates. Finding a shampoo that doesn’t contain
sulfates, however, is pretty difficult.

Sulfates make the shampoo have more bubbles (thereby giving the illusion of a cleaner, more
thorough wash). This, however, isn’t the case, since sulfates often times dry out your hair and
cause it to be brittle.

All that can lead to hair loss problems as well as other hair related issues.

Argan Oil Shampoo Reviews

Many people who have used argan oil shampoo have seen great results within only a couple of
uses.

While there are a few who have complained about a few brands regarding the quality and
amount of oil inside the respective shampoo, it’s safe to say that the overwhelming majority of
argan oil shampoo reviews are extremely positive.

To really see how it works with your hair, skin, and body, try a bottle out yourself!

Argan oil Moisturizer

Most moisturizers that contain argan oil come of the following types; spray bottles, lotions,
conditioners and the actual pure argan oil.

The reason why argan oil makes such a great moisturizer is that it contains an ingredient called
sterolins. These sterolins help promote healthy skin metabolism as well as helping your skin
retain more moisture.

On top of that, argan oil benefits the skin health via its unsaturated fatty acids that play a big role
in making your skin softer.
What’s great about each of these different products is that they all have their own unique
purpose that they’re meant for, and it’s also a great way to get argan oil into more of your daily
body care products.

Argan Oil Spray

Another popular product that argan oil comes in is a spray. Many popular hair & skin
manufacturers have introduced some type of spray oil that contains argan oil.

The reasons for this are many; sprays are convenient hybrids that are easy to access and use, as
well as easy to store. They are also very accessible and perfect carry-ons if you have a purse or
bag.

The spray functionality makes the process more enjoyable too (rather than having to remove the
cap and measure out a serving).

Argan Oil Lotion

The lotion version of argan oil is another great and popular product that more and more people
are turning to and starting to incorporate into their daily routines.

Almost every grocery and convenience store have at least 1 body care brand that carries a
moisturizing lotion with argan oil. You can also choose from a plethora of available options on
Amazon.

The great thing about lotions is that you can find some great organic and pure argan oil that’s
mixed with other pure, natural oils to make a killer one-in-all lotion and moisturizer.

The options are endless and you are guaranteed to find something, just remember to follow the
guidelines and skip the junk by making sure to check the ingredients!

Argan Oil Soap

Argan oil soap is a great option if you’re looking to make your skin smooth and clean at the same
time.

We know that argan oil contains many essential fatty acids that help your skin repair itself. It
does this by creating a very thin protective layer which will protect your skin from harsh
pollutants in your environment, including UV rays.

Another great reason why argan oil soap is a great solution is that it contains antiseptic
properties, which means it’ll get rid of dangerous germs and bad bacteria on the surface of your
skin.

These are the very germs that are responsible for attacking your healthy cells, as well as creating
a bad environment around you.

If you don’t take care of these germs, they could lead to other issues such as acne and brittle,
fragile skin.

That said, argan oil soap is a great solution for acne as well as any other skin problems. Keep in
mind however that there is no such thing as pure argan oil soap, and if there was, it probably
costs hundreds of dollars.

When comparing different soap brands, try to gauge which has the most amount of natural
argan oil, the smallest amount of ingredients, and most authentic sources (the best is from
Morocco).

Argan Oil Conditioner

Thousands of people have discontinued using their conditioners due to the results they’ve seen
when using an argan oil conditioner.

If you’re looking to replenish your hair like never before, have a soft natural shine, and give it a
vibrancy that it only gets at its peak, then try out a conditioner with argan oil.

Unlike many other conditioners, argan oil conditioners don’t leave your hair greasy. They’re also
one of the few true frizz-free hair products on the market that work.

Lastly, many are in love with the way a lot of these argan oil conditioners leave their hair
smelling. With a healthy look that smells great, it’s a no brainer that argan oil is the go-to hair
and skin product.n

Argan Oil Benefits

Another popular application of argan oil is its use for the hair. It conditions and has been proven
to make your hair healthier, shinier, silkier, and softer. The oil seeps into the hair follicles helping
treat split ends and taming frizzy hair.

One of the best vitamins for hair is vitamin E.

Argan oil packs high quantities of vitamin E that are great for hair treatment including the scalp!

for hair loss.

healthy, strong, and vibrant hair.

What does Argan oil do for your skin?

Triterpenoids are found in argan oil and offer amazing benefits to your skin. It’s amazing benefits

cancer.

Its powerful antioxidants and unsaturated fatty acids are also useful in treating scars of all types,

The 80% of unsaturated fatty acids in argan oil also works to treat premature aging caused by
stress, smoking, and living style. The oil presses through the skin reducing fine line wrinkles as
well as boosting the skins healthy cells.

It has been proven to restore elasticity to the skin, causing a youthful regenerated glow.

It also plays as an environmental damage control agent. Argan’s rich nutrients of antioxidants
help protect the skin from UV radiation.

the skin.

It’s also shown to be effective in treating cancerous growth throughout the body caused by

Lip Moisturizer

In cold and dry weather, argan oil treats dry, sore, and cracked lips. Vitamins inside the oil keep
lips plump, soft, and healthy.

The benefits of argan oil for your lips don’t depend on the season or weather. Whether you are
in a cold environment, or a hot dry environment like Morocco, argan oil will treat your lips
wonderfully.

Unlike many lip care products, you won’t find preservatives and chemicals added to ensure shelf
life.

This means that you’re only getting vitamins and nutrients to your lips, and no preservatives and
added chemicals that are needed to package and store lip care products.

It’s very useful to always know that the more organic a product is, the better it is for us humans.

Certain brands of lip care products add menthol and other ingredients in order to produce a
fresh, tingly, feeling.

Although it might “feel” like it’s working, these chemicals only add to the dryness of your lips,
making you a repeat customer as they intended.

An organic and natural substitute to this is using argan oil for your lips. Although you won’t
experience a “tingly” feeling, your lips will be fuller, smoother, and moister.

It will treat blisters as well as dry and chapped lips better than the leading lip balm.

While we know that there are many uses of argan oil, I wanted to compile a brief list of the top
argan oil benefits that have been backed by a significant amount of research.

So without further explanation, we’ll go over the top benefits of argan oil that have made our
list:

Argan Oil for Face Benefits

When it comes to do-it-yourself exfoliators, argan oil is a must-have ingredient. Not only does it
have great anti-aging properties, but its skin soothing effects make it a great ingredient at all
occasions.

From healing skin ailments to dryness, discoloration to premature aging, the properties of argan
oil make it a superb natural remedy for all prior mentioned items.

The reason for this is because argan oil works together with your body’s oil production, making it
an effective natural remedy for people with sensitive skin conditions such as eczema, rosacea,
and psoriasis.

Lastly, you can use argan oil for your face at any time of day or night. There is no limit or
restrictions on the goodness and benefits argan oil has to offer.

shine, hydration and even color.
It adds to the richness and thickness without getting your hair greasy. It helps those who are

for.

People of all ages and backgrounds can enjoy these wonderful benefits of argan oil that very few
are still beginning to become aware of. It works on all types of hair, whether curly or straight.

All in all, it’s safe to say that argan oil is debatably one of the top natural oils for hair, skin and
other body parts.

Argan Oil Acne Benefits

Using argan oil for acne is a great way to get rid of stubborn, repetitive and often times
embarrassing acne.

This is great news for anyone who’s been suffering from acne since chemical cream treatments
can be expensive and often times fail to deliver on their promise.

The reason argan oil works great for getting rid of acne is due to the sebum reducing qualities it
has. It’s proven to be effective in reducing sebum levels for people with oily skin.

Another great quality that makes argan oil great for acne is its anti-inflammatory properties.
This, combined with the high linoleic acid content, makes for a great natural remedy for acne
that’s caused by inflammation.

definitely worth investing more time and money into.

educate yourself about it, as well as to get the right product into your hands!

Argan Oil for Dry Skin

One of the major skin ailments that plague many people is dryness of the skin. While suffering
from dry skin can be painful, it’s sometimes even more painful to find a solution that actually
works.

While there are many brands and companies that claim to have the ‘best’ moisturizer, you can’t
go wrong with getting your hands on some argan oil and seeing firsthand how potent it really is.

Heals Cracks and Burns

For those that are suffering from dry and cracked heels, know that argan oil is there for you as a
source of relief and remedy for the issue.

Simply apply a few drops of the pure oil to the affected area and massage into it. Then continue
day as you would normally.
Using argan oil for sunburns is also a great way to remedy the burnt skin and provide relief. Not
only does it ease the pain, but it goes to work immediately and you can feel it working (did I

A lot of those suffering from diabetes have found solace in argan oil. Numerous studies suggest
that it has anti-diabetic properties that help improve your body’s insulin response.

In 2012, almost 10% of the American population (nearly 26 million people) had diabetes.

Although diabetes is now a world epidemic, it is much more common in westernized countries
where the diet mostly consists of high amounts of fat and sugar.
These are the types of foods that comprise of a diet that is much more likely to lead to insulin
resistance.

Argan Oil vs Coconut Oil

One of the main differences between coconut and argan oil is that the argan tree doesn’t
contain any growth hormones.

Coconut oil, however, contains far greater amounts of fatty acids. These acids are also more
stable and give firmness to the walls of cells. This is especially important for those in recovery
and needs barrier repair.

Both of these are great for your skin and hair and contain a plethora of additional benefits as
well.

Bottom line: they’re both great products. Each one is unique and stands on its own, but the 2
combined make an excellent combination.

The majority of Argan reviews are overwhelmingly positive, given that the customer received
real argan oil that wasn’t diluted beyond recognition.

natural products. My recommendation is to try it out for yourself and see how you like it.

What are the side effects of Argan Oil?

A few cases of allergic reaction have occurred for those who are allergic to nuts. Although it’s not
technically a tree nut, rather it is a stone fruit.
A simple test to see if your allergic is adding a bit (drop) of argan oil to the inside of your arm,
check for reactions.

When compared to the chemical filled beauty products that you have in your home, argan oil
doesn’t even come close to being as toxic as those products. It’s an all-natural alternative to
beauty care.

The majority of beauty products come with some type of argan oil within their ingredients, but
with most products, toxic chemicals and treatments are laid within the product. Thus why argan
oil should be used instead.

Which kind of Argan Oil should you purchase?

Pure Argan oil can be found in health food stores, co-ops, and online retailers. You should be
very careful in which kind you get since some only contain argan oil as an ingredient and are not
the main product itself.

The best option is to always choose 100% organic all natural cold-pressed pure argan oil. This will
help in case you want to take it internally.

Unfortunately due of the popularity of argan oil, many fraudulent companies are selling false
forms of it (not the real thing).

Low-quality oil will not give you the same benefits that pure argan oil will.

Its worth the cost to go organic, you get what you pay for. Look for pure cold-pressed argan oil.
