When is the best time to use Argan Oil?

Since genuine pure Argan Oil leaves little or no oily residue it can be used throughout the day. It is even suitable for use under a make up foundation. Our clients find that the best way to use Argan Oil is by making a light treatment in the morning and a second thicker application last thing at night as an overnight treatment. By following this program skin should start to show the benefits within a few weeks.

Be careful about buying Argan Oil from websites promising you almost instant overnight effects they are quite simply not being honest. Good things take time. Argan Oil is a gentle and natural product with many benefits for skin that gave been experienced and confirmed by many but it would not be reasonable to expect lines or wrinkles to miraculously disappear overnight!

How do you apply Argan oil?

There are many ways you can apply Argan Oil depending on what you are using it for.

Argan Oil can be used on dry or damp skin. For areas such as the face and neck you will need just a little oil. Possibly only a few drops at first. Gently massage into your skin with your fingertips using a circular motion until the oil starts to be absorbed. Take care not to over massage delicate areas such as under the eye.

For other areas, such as legs or hands, you may use more oil and apply with the palm of your hand massaging in until the oil begins to dry and be absorbed.

For a more intense treatment in areas where lines or wrinkles appear you may wish to apply the Argan Oil a second time.

Is Argan Oil good for dry skin and problems like Eczema, Dermatitis or Psoriasis?

Argan Oil is an excellent treatment for dry skin conditions and problems such as Eczema or Psoriasis and can be used to help in many ways.

These types of skin conditions often become more irritated due to skin drying out. Argan Oil makes an excellent barrier for use before and after showering. Apply a skin protecting Argan Oil barrier before showering to help prevent irritation during washing. After showering – apply to slightly moist skin to help lock in moisture and prevent skin drying out.

Softening and soothing, Argan Oil can also be applied directly to dry skin patches and may help reduce redness and inflammation and encourage damaged skin to heal over. Interestingly, where Eczema is quite “wet” and has caused damage to skin Argan Oil can help “dry” damaged areas.

For irritated skin conditions apply more carefully gently “patting” in the skin or smoothing over using the palm of your hand. You should avoid massaging irritated skin. After initial application the skin may appear more red and feel warm. This should subside after 5 or 10 minutes as the application begins to work.

For dry skin problems, such as Eczema, repeated applications of Argan may be necessary throughout the day. You will also need use more Argan Oil than when using to simply moisturise healthier skin. If you need larger amounts for this type of use we recommend viewing our 200ml Argan Oil special offers..

Many of our clients buying Argan Oil for very dry skin or Eczema also find that the blend of oils in our Sahara Tanning Oil can be even more effective at reducing redness and promoting healing.

Argan oil for stretch marks?

Many women have found that by using Argan oil during pregnancy that stretch marks can be reduced. This may be due to Argan Oils ability to help keep skin firm and flexible and fight the breakdown of collagen and elastins caused by stretching the skin.

Since Argan is a pure natural and organic oil it should be a much healthier choice than many of the very expensive chemical based creams for stretch marks currently available. Stretch marks are best avoided by using Argan Oil as early as possible and continuing use for 2 or 3 months after the end of the pregnancy.
