Argan Fruit

History:
When learning what is argan oil, it is important to understand its rich history. Argan Oil is a rare and precious commodity. It has been used in the beauty rituals of Moroccan women since antiquity. Argan trees grow in the semi-desert area of south western Morocco. They produce fruit smaller than apricots. Goats love this fruit delicious and will climb the prickly Argan trees to eat it. In the past, the pits from the goat’s droppings were cracked open and the kernels inside were pressed to make Argan Oil. The journey through the digestive system of a goat is not a necessary step in making quality Argan Oil. So we at Saadia Organics leave that step out. However, it does make for an interesting fact. Goats also damage Argan trees as they climb them. All of our Argan Oil comes from goat-free farms. |

Types:
There are two varieties of Argan Oil. Some is for culinary purposes and some is for cosmetic use. If the oil is to be used in cuisine, the kernels are roasted before grinding. This brings out the delicious nutty flavour in the oil. Roasted kernels produce a lot more oil than unroasted kernels. This is why culinary Argan Oil is less expensive than cosmetic.
Argan Oil for cosmetic use is made from raw, unroasted pits. It too has a slightly nutty aroma when you first apply it. But that scent disappears within a few minutes.
Note: Beware of “deodorized” Argan Oil. The process used to take the aroma out of the oil is said to damage the amazing abilities of pure untouched Argan Oil. Saadia Organics is proud to only offer you the most natural, authentic product possible.

Composition:
Argan Oil is made of unsaturated fatty acids, Vitamin E/tocopherols, squalene and sterols. Each of these components is unique and useful for different reasons. Some act as antioxidants. Others help with chronic inflammation. Some properties are even known for their ability to protect against skin cancer and for being anti-tumorigenic.

What is Argan Oil?
Argan Oil is also known as liquid gold. It is an incredibly rich oil that is high in unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E/tocopherols, squalene and sterols. It comes from the pit of the Argan fruit and is completey nut free.
The reason Argan Oil has grown in popularity is because of its amazing results. Argan Oil restores and balances skin. It is gentle enough to use on the most sensitive skin. And because it comes from a fruit, it is extremely rare to be allergic to Argan Oil.
Despite the fact that it is an oil, it prevents acne. And it even softens scars and can help with stretch marks.
As a moisturizer, this liquid gold is incredible. And since it is not greasy, you don't have to worry about it clogging the pores.
In the hair, Argan Oil is a powerful treatment. It will strengthen damaged hair while moisturizing it. It will relieve dry scalp and uncomfortable itch. It will even balance out an oily scalp. This is why you can find Argan Oil as an ingredient in to so many hair products. (Although we believe it is best in its pure form.)
All in all, this product is unlike any other on the market today. We are proud to offer real, authentic, hand-pressed Argan Oil.
