How to Enjoy Argan Oil Benefits

Published by on November 18th, 2011

Enjoying argan oil benefits is easy once you know how it works. The first thing for you to do is choose the product to use.

If you wish to use raw argan oil as a beauty product, buy a cosmetic grade product and not a culinary one. The nuts used in cooking argan oil are roasted to bring out their flavor and are not suited for beauty products. The nuts used for skin and hair are left raw to conserve essential fatty acids and nourishing vitamins. When choosing the oil, go for dark colored glass bottles instead of clear, plastic ones, this helps preserve the beneficial properties of the oil.

Hair

Argan oil is well known for nourishing and strengthening hair as well as promoting shine and health. Your scalp will benefit from this oil also, stimulating hair growth and getting rid of dryness. For an intensive hair treatment, add a large amount of oil to your dry locks, starting at the ends and then wrap in a warm towel, leaving it overnight or for 30 mins. Wash your hair and style it as normal.

If you suffer from dandruff or a dry scalp, massage the oil into the roots. Do this once or twice weekly and enjoy softer, smoother and healthier hair. Frizz can further be eliminated by just adding a drop of oil to your locks.

Face

Argan oil is an excellent moisturizer for skin. You can begin by using it at night and then progress if you see that your skin requires more hydration, using the oil twice a day. A gentle evening massage is supremely beneficial for all skin types, and it there are areas of your face that are drier or more wrinkle-prone, just apply a drop on those areas. Since argan oil is quite light and penetrates easily, you don’t have to worry about the eye area or looking greasy after application.

When to Use Argan Morroccan Oil

Published by on November 2nd, 2011

What is argan oil? This oil is extracted from the seeds of the argan tree which is found in Southwestern Morocco. It is popular due to its many benefits for hair, skin and even diet, but since the oil is so difficult to extract it can often come at a high price.

Argan oil is naturally high in essential fatty acids and vitamin E, making it an excellent soothing treatment for skin, nourishment for hair and a fab dietary supplement. You can enjoy healthy skin and deeply conditioned hair with this oil which you can find at high-end beauty stores.

Now, when is the best time to start using this miraculous oil? Let’s not wait until we are too old! When we start to age, our hair thins out gradually and the way to prevent this from happening (though it is inevitable, however it can be slowed down) is by nourishing it and keeping it in excellent condition. This is where argan moroccan oil comes in. With the vitamin E, omegas and carotene that it provides we can help our scalp maintain its health, stimulating blood flow, preventing hair loss and promoting new growth. Plus, the extra conditioning and smoothing of the strands is also a benefit that this oil can offer us. The best part of it is we can enjoy thick, healthy hair in a completely natural way.

There are certain times when it is best to use argan moroccan oil. For example, if you suffer from dry skin, you can use it as a moisturizer at night, applying a small amount (2 or 3 drops) to your face and neck in upward motions. Why at night? Because the argan oil can repair the dry skin uninterrupted while you sleep. With dry hair, do something similar. Rub a small amount of argan oil in your palms and apply it to your hair beginning at the ends, moving up to the scalp if you suffer dryness there also. Leave it in for half an hour, then wash out the oil with a soft shampoo for smooth, glossy locks. If your hair is particularly dry than leave the oil in overnight.
