For Your Face – Argan oil is free of preservatives, including those ugly parabens linked to heightened risk of breast cancer. As such, it’s an excellent moisturizer, for the face or the body. For the first option, gently apply argan in a circular motion, with your ring or middle finger. Do this twice a day – one in the morning and again in the evening, and voila! – natural treatment for wrinkles and acne. For Your Body – The polyphenols in argan make it a powerful healer of sun-damaged skin. You can also use argan to reduce stretch marks which, considering that up to 90% of mothers develop these biological scars, make argan an attractive option for skin health and natural beauty. Argan also reduces risk of psoriasis and may protect against eczema. To use argan on your body, apply to the affected area after a bath or shower. You can use argan by itself or mix it with your regular body moisturizer. Apply liberally. For Your Nails – Not an old wives’ tale, argan really does strengthen the fingernails, soften cuticles and add glow to otherwise dull nails. But don’t take my word for it. Mix equal parts argan and lemon juice and paint the solution on to your nails with a brush and see for yourself. For Your Hair – More than just a natural moisturizer, argan makes an excellent hair conditioner and can treat a variety of hair problems, from dry scalp to splits ends. More over, argan adds a shine to otherwise dull hair and the rich nutrient content helps argan reduce build-up of chemicals from common hair products. To treat damaged hair with argan, apply a generous amount to your hair, starting at the ends. Then wrap your hair in a warm towel. Wear it for at least 30 minutes, or overnight. For dandruff or dry scalp, start with the ends, as instructed above, but go further into the roots. Do this once or twice each week. Got frizzy hair? Rub one to two drops between your palms and scrunch into the ends of your hair.
