On my last trip to Morocco I was introduced to Argan Oil, also called the golden oil for its fabulous rich yellow colour. Moroccan women still swear by it as a beauty oil which hydrate and heal their hair and skins.
Argan Oil has many benefits and is naturally rich in vitamin E, carotenes (giving you that nice and natural tanned glow!), squalene and fatty acids.
How To Use Argan Oil For Hair
Here are a few examples on how to use argan oil for hair and include it in your daily routine for maximum results.
- You can use argan oil on your hair as a mask and leave it on for minimum 30 minutes or better overnight. Make sure you massage your scalp thoroughly and spread evenly on your hair. Shampoo in the morning.
- Use a few drops of argan oil in your palm as a conditioner after your shampoo on wet hair, massage it on your ends and dry as usual as a leave in conditioner. It works wonder on frizz and dry hair.
- add a few dro[s of argan oil to your shampoo as a moisturiser while you clean your hair.
How to use Argan Oil on skin
- Use it every day as a massage on the face before going to bed and in the morning for at least a month to show maximum results against wrinkles.
- Use it in 10% dilution in homemade creams or face oils. I like to create my own blend with other unique and rare oils like kukui oil to make it lighter but it also works just by itself. You don’t need a lot…Less is better.
Seek organic Argan oil cold pressed from Morocco (to be honest even it is not certified organic; it is most likely that no pesticides have been used since Morocco is still preserved from all that cr..). You can find online on mountain rose herbs and amazon.
Be extremely wary of fake and diluted Argan oil, always read the labels!
Make sure you choose 100% Argan oil or nothing at all, otherwise you will end up with a fake argan oil.
Fun fact:
In ancient time the Berbers of Morocco gathered Argan pits directly from the pooh of goats which climbed the argan trees to eat their fruits. The pits left undigested on the floor were cleaned and then pressed to make the nutty oil used in cooking and cosmetics.
You can also use organic argan oil (roasted for maximum flavour in cooking, delicious nutty flavour in salad vinaigrette!
