Argan oil benefits
Naturally rich in unsaturated fatty acids—especially omega-9 and omega-6—argan oil is a true source of vitality. Its high vitamin E (tocopherols) content gives it recognized antioxidant properties.
For culinary use, it brings a pleasant roundness and delicate hazelnut notes while helping balance your intake of healthy fats. For care, it nourishes skin and hair, softens them, and restores shine. A few drops on clean skin or on hair ends are enough to enjoy its natural benefits.
Directions for use
- Cold dishes: 1–2 tsp on salads, roasted vegetables, semolina, tagines, various dishes.
- Warm finishing (not for frying): lightly drizzle over the dish when serving.
- Care: 2–3 drops on the face or hair ends, gentle massage.
