Properties & Benefits

• anti-aging: the presence of natural anti-radical compounds such as tocopherols (including vitamin E), squalene or carotenoids make this oil an excellent anti-aging remedy. This property associated with that of skin repair and protection allows this oil to fight effectively against the signs of dryness and aging of the skin. It is also very effective in preventing stretch marks in pregnant women.
• softener: Argan oil has a composition similar to that of skin lipids, so it quickly penetrates the skin for a moisturizing and nourishing effect. The contributions of omega-3, 6 and 9 also help restore good elasticity of the skin. Argan oil is also used in hair care to deeply nourish dry hair and obtain shiny and supple hair. Schottenol, a sterol present in this vegetable oil softens the skin.
• healing: the linoleic acid of this vegetable oil allows the skin to regain its lost tone and firmness, which makes it a flagship in the fight against premature aging and the appearance of wrinkles.
• nourishing: very moisturizing due to its linoleic acid content, this vegetable oil is the ally of damaged hair, scaly and dry skin, but also brittle nails.
