INCI

Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil

SUMMARY

Argan nut oil is a natural oil sourced from the kernels of the argan tree. It's a hero ingredient in skincare and haircare products because of its rich composition of essential fatty acids, antioxidants and vitamins like vitamin E, that help to hydrate skin, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, promote healthy hair and nourish nails. Argan nut oil is commonly used in formulas like hair serums, face serums and face oils, but can also be used in creams and lotions to provide similar benefits.

ORIGIN

SKIN TOLERANCE

Argan nut oil is generally well-tolerated on most skin, but individuals with nut allergies should use caution and conduct a patch test before use.
