Argan Oil & Us
Moroccanoil began with the simple wish to share the transformative powers of argan oil with women around the world. To this day, every one of our hair and body products is infused with argan oil—our signature ingredient.
Where Does Argan Oil Come From?
Argantrær vokser og overlever iherdig i områder med halvørken ved Middelhavet. Argantreets dype røtter og små blader gjør at det kan motstå tørr vind og vanntap, noe som resulterer i en nøtt med en unik oljeprofil. Ren arganolje er en sjelden og verdifull olje som høstes fra og trekkes ut av argantreets nøtter. I århundrer har kvinner i hele Middelhavsområdet brukt arganolje i sine skjønnhetsregimer for å få hud og hår som ser levende og sunt ut.
Why Use Argan Oil?
Thanks to a uniquely high concentration of antioxidants,
tocopherols (Vitamin E), and essential fatty acids such as oleic acid and linoleic acid, argan oil has multiple nourishing benefits for hair and skin.
Our argan oil-infused products make it simple and luxurious to harness these glow-boosting properties and make them part of your daily routine.
