ARGANIA SPINOSA KERNEL OIL

Argan oil is extracted from the seeds of the argan tree. Its occurrence is limited to a small area between Morocco and Algeria, which UNESCO has declared a biosphere reserve. In addition, for a few years now, UNESCO has included the centuries-old knowledge about the use of the argan tree and its fruits in the intangible cultural heritage of mankind.

In Morocco, the unroasted kernel oil has been used since ancient times for the treatment of skin diseases and for beauty care. Besides vitamin E and phytosterols, the combination of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids in particular ensures the regeneration of the skin's own lipid film. Argan oil thus prevents dehydration and skin aging.
