Product Information

Some of us have naturally oiler skin than others. Those who do often go out of their way to get rid of the oily sheen that can occur. Thanks to argan oil’s sebum-reducing capabilities, it can help decrease total sebum and reduce oiliness of the skin. When used topically, argan oil may irritate the skin. This can cause rashes or acne to form. This may be a more common reaction with those who have tree nut allergies. Even though argan oil comes from a stone fruit, it may aggravate those with such allergies. To avoid this, you should test argan oil on a small, easily hidden patch of skin to make sure that it won’t irritate your skin. The high concentration of vitamin E and other nutrients in organic Moroccan argan oil makes it an effective and powerful immune system booster. Hormonal acne is often the result of excess sebum that’s caused by hormones. Argan oil has anti-sebum effects, which can effectively regulate amounts of sebum on the skin. This can help to treat several different types of acne and promote a smoother, calmer complexion.

It shouldn't have a strong, fragrant smell (but rather a "nutty" scent) and it needs to have a light amber tint. In a study that looked at the effectiveness of argan oil in treating second-degree burns on rats, skin started to heal within 14 days. Researchers applied the oil twice a day during the study. Moroccan women have long used argan oil to protect their skin from sun damage, a practice was supported by a 2013 study.

These fatty acids help to support natural barrier function of the skin and may possess soothing abilities to angry or irritated skin. Unlike the name suggests, these fatty acids aren’t like other acids you may be familiar with in skincare. They are generally non-irritating and actually provide the skin with a source of fat which is essential to helping to protect your skin from damage and irritation. It’s a rare oil that is high in both oleic ( omega-9) and linoleic ( omega-6) essential fatty acids. Both of these aid acne-prone skin, which studies show is usually deficient in linoleic acid in the sebum. One study was conducted treating dermatitis patients with placebo or oral vitamin E, which is in abundance in argan oil.
