Argan oil is rich in linoleic acid and oleic fatty acids known to support good health. It also contains high levels of vitamin E which gives argan oil antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties. For the skin, argan oil is used topically in its pure form. Apply a small amount (1-2 drops) to your skin by massaging gently into your skin.
Massage argan oil into your nails. For nails that are especially dry or brittle, soak them in argan oil for 15 minutes to allow the oil to absorb in your nails.
Argan oil is properly used to moisturize skin and it may be effective at reducing signs of aging when applied directly to the skin. It may also be applied in healing burned wounds.
Argan oil is used directly to damp or dry hair to improve moisture, reduce breakage or reduce frizz. It may also be included in shampoos or conditioners.
