I’m sure your dresser and vanity are overcrowded with countless products that target a variety of skincare needs. However, what if you could eliminate all of them and have everything you need in one small bottle. Yes, you heard right! One. Bottle. Now that we have your attention, let’s talk about how you can make this happen.

Argan oil originated in Morocco and is often called liquid gold for obvious reasons. Those who first used the product discovered its versatility when they realized it can benefit the skin, face, hair, and more.

Argan oil has the power to make your skin look younger, brighter and more radiant. Packed with an abundance of linoleic acid, a healthy fatty acid, argan oil ensures your skin is always smooth and moisturized.

We know you’ve heard of argan before, but what makes it so special?

Here is our seven must-know argan oil benefits for your skin and face:

Benefit 1 – Great Moisturizer

Argan oil is naturally very moisturizing and non-clogging. This means that it can provide your skin with the moisture it needs without clogging your pores with unnecessary amounts of oil. Argan oil very closely resembles the oil your skin naturally produces. Therefore, your skin will accept and absorb it best.

Benefit 2 – For All Skin Types

Whether you have oily skin, dry skin, or a combination of both, argan is the oil for you. Most facial cleansers and moisturizers are too harsh for skin and ultimately strip your face of its natural sebum, forcing skin to overproduce oil to compensate for the loss. By applying argan oil to the skin, you are balancing your natural oil production levels.

Benefit 3 – Excellent Remedy for Acne

Argan oil is an excellent remedy for acne breakouts. It’s high in linoleic acid content, making it perfect for reducing inflammation and redness when healing acne. What is linoleic acid you ask? Linoleic acid is a polyunsaturated fatty acid that is part of the omega 6 fatty acids. This means that linoleic acid helps keep your hair and skin moisturized.

Benefit 4 – Great for Anti-Aging

Argan is packed with fatty acids and antioxidants, which makes it an excellent product to promote elasticity in your skin. This oil also naturally carries vitamin E and A, which contribute to the anti-aging process. When used regularly, argan can help reduce the production and depth of wrinkles, while also fading age spots and reinforcing the regenerative properties of healthy skin cells.

Benefit 5 – Skin Healing Properties

Due to its rich natural formula, argan is deeply moisturizing and restorative to your skin and face. It can help reduce inflammation and heal wounds, creating a preventative remedy for scarring. Both women and men can benefit from argan’s ability to nourish and heal the skin. It can heal and moisturize a dry scalp, soften a scruffy beard, and double as a soothing post-shave product.

Benefit 6 – Lip Moisturizer

Ditch your lip balm and restore dry, flaky lips with argan oil. By incorporating argan into your routine, you can restore your lips naturally. Try creating a DIY scrub with a teaspoon of sugar and a few drops of argan to make a paste. Scrub this onto dry lips every 10 to 12 days for soft and luscious lips.

Benefit 7 – Great for Hair Too

Now that we’ve talked about how argan oil can transform your skin and face, let’s talk about your hair. The summer heat can leave your hair dry and frizzy. That’s why we recommend using argan oil in substitution for your leave-in conditioner. After your hair is dry from washing it, you can nourish your scalp and hair with a few drops of argan. In addition to healing damaged hair, it will leave you with a sleek and shiny look.

Whether you’re using argan for your skin or scalp, it’s clear that this liquid truly is gold.  Unlike countless products in the market, argan oil is natural and least harmful to your skin.

Our atma and saya facial oils both have argan in their formulas to take advantage of the many benefits this oil provides to your skin and face. At amaiaa, we take pride in providing customers with all-natural alternatives to skincare. We believe that you should never have to sacrifice natural to achieve healthy, radiant skin!
