What is African Argan Oil?
African Argan oil is derived from the argan tree and native to Morocco. It’s similar to jojoba oil, coconut oil, olive oil, and a host of other oils with the difference being that it is nutrient-rich. It has antioxidants, contains 80% essential fatty acids, and has a very high amount of vitamin E – all of which have benefits. Read on for more.
How to Use African Argan Oil
African Argan oil deeply moisturises the skin while improving water retention no matter your skin type. That’s why we created the Argan hydrating moisturiser infused with niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, moringa, and squalane to have the ingredients work together to nourish, hydrate, moisturise, and revive the skin. The skin’s natural oils also tend to get stripped off during exfoliation particularly when using chemical exfoliants. Moisturising using argan oil immediately after exfoliating will lock in hydration in the skin barrier.
Pro tip – Always remember to cleanse, moisturise then protect in that order.
