Your Hair's Secret
Due to the high vitamin E content of argan oil and its antioxidant properties it leaves hair hydrated and silky smooth.
Argan Oil can be found in a huge number of moisturisers, serums and face masks. It also enjoys extensive use in a number of hair care products like shampoos, conditioners, masks and treatments.
Argan Oil is made from the kernel (sometimes referred to as the ‘nut’) of the argan tree’s fruit. Traditionally, this was done by collecting the kernels from goats’ droppings! After the fruit is removed, the nuts are dried, cracked open and the oil is pressed out.
Argan Oil contains roughly 45% - 55% oleic acid, 28% - 36% linoleic acid, 10% - 15% palmitic acid and 5% - 7% stearic acid.
It takes 50 kg of argan kernel to produce just 1 litre of argan oil.
