Argan oil: a beauty ritual thousands of years old
Discover the secrets of Morocco's liquid gold, hand-extracted by the Berber women's cooperatives of the Souss region.
Nicknamed Morocco's liquid gold, argan oil is far more than just a cosmetic. It is a heritage passed down from mother to daughter for generations in southwestern Morocco.
A 100% artisanal extraction
Berber women crack the argan nuts by hand, one by one, between two stones. It takes nearly 30 kg of fruit to obtain a single litre of oil. This patient labour is what gives every bottle its value.
How to use it every day
- Face: 2 drops as a night serum, on clean skin.
- Hair: as a pre-shampoo oil bath, or on dry ends.
- Body: after showering to deeply nourish the skin.
