Argan oil, certified organic
Our certified organic, cold-pressed argan oil is sourced from a village in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, where traditional methods meet a strong focus on rural development and sustainability. The oil is carefully extracted from the kernels of the argan tree without the use of deodorising processes, yet it has a beautifully light, natural scent, unlike many argan oils we tested before choosing this exceptional supplier.
Skincare Uses:
Rich in essential fatty acids and nutrients, argan oil is often used in skincare to help moisturise and nourish the skin. Despite being an oil, it absorbs well and leaves a lightweight, non-greasy feel, making it suitable for most skin types. It's also a popular choice in formulations designed to soften and smooth the skin, helping to reduce dryness and promote a supple, healthy-looking complexion.
Haircare Uses:
In haircare, argan oil is valued for its conditioning properties. It’s often added to products to help leave hair feeling softer, shinier, and more manageable. Its lightweight texture can also assist in smoothing frizz, reducing flyaways, and improving the appearance of split ends.
Allergen note:
As argan oil is derived from a nut, we recommend caution for those with nut allergies. As with any new skincare or haircare ingredient, it’s a good idea to patch test first, especially if you have sensitive skin.
Sustainability and Community:
Our argan oil supplier is deeply involved in protecting the argan forests and supporting the local community. Every part of the argan nut is used — the pulp feeds animals, the shells are used for firewood — meaning the trees themselves are preserved rather than cut for fuel. Their initiatives include providing street lighting, waste collection, supporting a school canteen, and planting olive trees to further protect the local environment.
