Argan Oil is a nutrient-rich natural oil derived from the kernels of the Argan tree (Argania spinosa), native to Morocco. Extracted through cold pressing, it is golden-yellow in color and has a mildly nutty aroma. Renowned for its high content of essential fatty acids (oleic and linoleic acid), vitamin E (tocopherol), polyphenols, and antioxidants, Argan Oil is widely used in cosmetic, personal care, pharmaceutical, and nutraceutical formulations.
This oil is a potent emollient, moisturizer, and skin rejuvenator, making it highly effective in skincare and hair care products. Argan Oil also offers anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties and is commonly used in anti-aging formulations. Its light texture and quick absorption make it ideal for both leave-on and rinse-off applications. Additionally, edible-grade Argan Oil is used in culinary preparations, contributing both flavor and nutritional benefits.
