What Is Argan Oil?
Argan oil is a highly precious natural component known in the cosmetics world as liquid gold, obtained by cold pressing from the kernels of the endemic Argania spinosa tree native to south-western Morocco. Containing high levels of essential fatty acids, omega molecules and vitamin E, this unique oil is one of the most frequently chosen nourishing actives in Lacinia skincare products. One of the purest sources of moisture nature offers, argan oil envelops the skin barrier without weighing it down, sealing in moisture deeply. A cornerstone of beauty rituals for centuries, this component allows the skin to maintain its suppleness and take on a much smoother, brighter appearance. In our products formulated with Lacinia's expertise, this rich argan oil content indulges the skin with every use and brings it a beautiful vitality.
Benefits in Skincare
Argan oil meets the moisture the skin needs and offers long-lasting softness. While cosmetically supporting the skin's natural elasticity, it revives tired, dull-looking skin. The powerful antioxidants it contains increase the skin's resistance to daily external factors and help it present a fresher appearance.
- It moisturises the skin deeply and refreshes it by soothing the feeling of tightness caused by dryness.
- Thanks to its rich vitamin E profile, it nourishes the skin and forms a protective shield against environmental factors.
- It softens the skin's surface beautifully, easing roughness to brighten the skin and bring a youthful glow.
- With regular use it supports the skin's natural radiance, erasing traces of tiredness and refreshing the complexion.
How Is It Used?
Lacinia's serums, care creams and lotions enriched with argan oil are entirely suited to daily use. If you would like to use pure argan oil, you can apply it twice a day, morning and evening, to cleansed and toned skin. Warm a few drops of argan oil in your palm and work it gently into your face, neck and décolletage with circular massaging movements. Thanks to its fast-absorbing structure, it does not leave an uncomfortable greasy layer on the skin's surface. It can also safely be used before make-up to prepare the skin and add a natural glow.
Who Can Use It?
Because argan oil has a low comedogenic rating, it can readily be used by almost every skin type, dry and dehydrated skin above all. It is a wonderful care alternative for anyone who feels dullness in their skin, needs extra moisture and is aiming for a livelier appearance. Combination skin can also add it to their routine in order to establish moisture balance.
Points to Keep in Mind
Although argan oil is generally a very well tolerated natural component, people with a nut sensitivity are advised to do a patch test under the jaw or on the inner wrist before spreading the product over larger areas. Contact with the eyes must be avoided entirely. This component is formulated for cosmetic purposes only.
