Argan oil extracted from the kernels of the Argan tree, Argania spinosa, mainly found in Morocco.
Rich in nutrients, antioxidants, and anti inflammatories, Argan oil is a popular ingredient in skincare formulations because it can help to nourish, hydrate and rejuvenate the skin, promoting a healthy, radiant complexion. Concentrated vitamins and polyphenols, Argan oil helps to protect the skin from oxidative damage caused by free radicals, while its anti-inflammatory properties soothe and calm red, irritated and inflamed skin.
Argan oil is rich in fatty acids and tocopherols which help promote elasticity and firmness; bouncier, firmer skin minimises the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and lax skin.
Whilst Argan is an oil, it is non-comedogenic meaning it will not clog pores or aggravate acne prone skin; it actually helps to balance oil production and sebum levels within the skin.
Inci name: Argania Spinosa Kernel oil.
Argan nut kernel oil can be found in Cult51 Eye Repair, Neck and Décolletage Firming Cream , Luminous Vitamin C Serum and Supercell mRNA Serum
