First of all- what is argan oil? It comes from the fruit of the argan tree, which is a native Moroccan plant. It’s used for food and beauty alike<\/a>, as well as for medicinal purposes. Organic argan oil – like this one<\/a> –\u00a0 is from organically grown argan trees.<\/p>\n

Testing Organic Argan Oil as a Moisturizer<\/h2>\n

Now, as a gal with a greasy complexion, I was pretty disturbed at the idea of putting this organic argan oil on my skin<\/a> as a moisturizer. But I recently tried the stuff in lieu of my usual lotion and was pleasantly surprised!<\/p>\n

It’s important to know that a couple of drops really go a long way. So don’t go thinking you’ll use the same amount of oil that you would of your usual moisturizer!<\/p>\n

I normally have to wait a little while in the morning between when I put on my moisturizer and when I put on my makeup, but not so with argan oil! One of the things I really liked about it was how quickly it absorbed into my skin. And no greasy residue either, which is pretty counter-intuitive considering it’s oil! You would think it would leave some sort of residue, but your skin will just soak it up as you rub it in.\u00a0 And like I said, a little bit goes a long way!<\/p>\n

I used it everywhere, too- face, hands, body, even rough spots on my heels and elbows. It definitely worked better and faster than my usual moisturizer.<\/p>\n

A lot of people complain about the smell. But take it from me- it isn’t that bad. It smells kind of nutty, but even that smell goes away fairly quickly as you rub it in. Remember- you’re not using a huge amount of the stuff, so if the smell gets to you, just try using a little less!<\/p>\n

Another idea would be to mix it with some other essential oils (like jojoba maybe) for some extra oomph (or if you still just can’t get over the scent!). I just used it plain- straight from the bottle- but my next experiment will definitely involve a DIY skin-saving essential oil mixture!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
