Beauty: Argania Wonder Oil for Shinier and Glowing Skin and Hair

Aloha! Here’s another good skincare product which I would love to share with you. Some of you (including me) does not aware that this local brand, Argania, has been one of the oldest skincare manufacturing company in Malaysia. Their products are based on Argan Oil which is known as having magical benefits to the skin, nails, and hair. Today’s post is about Argania Wonder Oil which is made with 100% Cold Pressed Argan Oil. Cool, isn’t it?

How Can I Tell If It Is a Pure Argan Oil? Okay. Here’s the tips. Pure Argan Oil can be easily identified through its colour and texture. It should be smooth and golden yellow in colour. The texture must not be slimy or watery. Pure Argan Oil should be easily absorbed by the skin. Pure Argan Oil has been proven to moisture the dry skin, giving a natural glow to the skin. It is the lightest oil in the world, fast absorption into the skin and does not clog the pores. Besides, Pure Argan Oil has natural healing properties to treat the scars and regenerate new skin cells.

About Argan Oil

Argan oil comes from the fruit of the native Argan tree in Morocco. The fruit is so nutritious that goats climb the trees just to eat them. Inside of that fruit is the little nut from which Argan oil is produced. For centuries, dating back at least as far as 600 BC, the Phoenicians relied upon this oil for healing as well as for enhancing beauty.

Natives of Morocco’s Argan Forest, which was declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1998, have pressed the nut to extract its precious oil, for use as a dietary supplement, wound healing, and to nourish the skin and hair.

WHAT I SAY

Argania Wonder Oil can be applied on the skin, lips, hair, and other parts of the body such as elbows and knees. It is a perfect remedy for dry skin. This product is a great moisturizer and rich in natural phenols, Vitamin E, and antioxidants which helps to grow healthy and thick looking hair, and less hair falls. I have been using Argania Wonder Oil on my scalp to reduce dryness and nourish my hair. Frankly speaking, I have been using Argania Wonder Oil on my feet every night before going to sleep as booster before applying lotion. I noticed that Argania Wonder Oil is slightly ‘heavier’ than Argania Light. So, I have decided to apply it on my hair, and body instead (even though it is stated that it can be applied on face.)

I read a few beauty tips from other international blogger that Argan Oil is best to be applied on damp hair (just before blow dry). So, I tried the tips using Argania Wonder Oil and I must say that it really made my hair soft and silky. Just run it through from the mid lengths down to the tips of the hair. Oh, Argania Wonder Oil also tames flyaway hairs and give it a surface sheen. Argania Wonder Oil helps to minimize the hair oil production over time. In fact, massaging through the hair also means you are giving your hands and cuticles some pampering session.

I love Argania Wonder Oil because it’s super handy to keep in my handbag and it has become a statement go-to product which I will always keep at arm’s length. It is also good to massage Argania Wonder Oil on the heels every night before going to bed. It really helps with improving the skin especially when the skin really needs to be pampered with hydration. Nobody wants to have a pair of cracked heels, anyway.

Since Argania Wonder Oil has a thicker texture than Argania Light, I love to mix Argania Wonder Oil with my DIY hydrating and exfoliating face scrub. This face scrub is great for those who have combination, oily, acne-prone, or even dry skin as it helps to scrub off dead skin faster and naturally. The ingredients are as follows (I actually got this recipe from other bloggers, and it really helped me!):

1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/2 Lemon (squeeze out for the juice)
7-10 drops of Argania Wonder Oil
1 tablespoon Honey (Preferable Stingless Bee Honey or Madu Kelulut / Madu Tantadan)
1/2 tablespoon Cinnamon Powder (optional)

Mix well and use this as face scrub twice or thrice a week after cleansing the face. Apply this on wet face. Do not rub on eyes area. Leave it on the skin for 10 – 15 minutes. After that, rinse off with icy cold water (put the ice on a bowl of cold water). I would recommend this to be done before going to bed. I usually massage my face using Argania Light as the last step of my evening beauty routine.

Last but not least, for those who have stretch Argan Wonder Oil bursts with natural ingredients and a complex amount of fatty acids which is a superfood for the skin as it keeps the skin hydrated throughout the night and into the next day. It can also be used to reduce the appearance of facial scars by encouraging the cell growth and as anti-inflammatory agent. One bottle of 30ml can last up to 30 – 45 days, depending on how you use it. The price is really affordable! This has been one of my favourite as it gives me more than just my own expectations.

If you are looking for Pure Argan Oil, I would recommend you Argan Wonder Oil as it is 100% Pure Argan Oil. 100% Cold Pressed Argan Oil without any extra, additional, or ‘alienated’ ingredients. You can easily identify it from the texture and smell – and, that not quite appealing smell (as for me, because Pure Argan Oil always has this ‘not-everyone-favourite’ scent). Why seek for other brands when you can purchase this locally produced product? You can find more about this Argan Wonder Oil, and there have been tons of positive reviews from those who have purchased and tried this Argan Wonder Oil. Check out the testimonials here.
