New Roots Organic Argan Oil

Hand-picked by a women's cooperative in Morocco, our argan oil is nourishing, light and fast-absorbing. It prevents and reduces wrinkles, stretch marks and scars, leaving your skin supple and moisturized.

With its golden color reflecting its benefits, Argan Oil holds the secret to healthy skin, hair and nails. This legendary oil has been appreciated for centuries for its soothing and anti-aging properties.

Argan Oil is produced from the rare argan nut (Argania spinosa), which grows only in a small region of south-west Morocco. Our pure Argan Oil is first cold-pressed to give you the highest quality oil possible. We buy our Argan Oil from a women's cooperative working on a UNESCO biosphere reserve, ensuring the protection and reforestation of the argan trees, and supporting the social and economic well-being of these women.

When used on a regular basis, Argan Oil smoothes wrinkles, softens the skin and increases its elasticity. Vitamin E, one of the most powerful biological antioxidants, is present in high concentrations in Argan Oil. Vitamin E neutralizes free radicals and protects cell membranes against lipid oxidation, slowing down aging and keeping your skin youthful-looking. Argan oil is also rich in essential fatty acids, including linoleic acid (omega-6). These fatty acids protect and repair the skin by stimulating intracellular oxygenation, helping to restore the vital balance of water and fats in the skin's hydrolipidic film.

Argan oil is therefore effective against acne, psoriasis, eczema and cold sores. Your hair and scalp can also benefit from Argan Oil's regenerative properties. By repairing the split ends of damaged hair, Argan Oil strengthens hair's protein-binding structures and restores elasticity, shine and shine, making it softer and more manageable. It helps treat scalp dryness and promotes hair growth. Apply the oil to dry or damp hair, from ends to roots, finishing with a gentle massage of the scalp.

Wrap a warm towel around your head and leave the oil on for 30 minutes or more. Wash and style as usual. For even smoother hair and fewer split ends, a light coat of oil can be applied to the last three quarters of the hair before drying; the heat will make the oil penetrate even more and revive the hair.

Brittle, dry nails can also be treated with Argan Oil. Soak your nails and cuticles in an equal mixture of Argan Oil and lemon juice, to soften cuticles and strengthen your nails, and finish the perfect manicure with a coat of Argan Oil on your hands.

Argan Oil is a rejuvenating addition to your daily body care regime.
