How To Use Argan Oil
Take note that Argan oil could be used for the hair, skin, nails and body. Remember that if you intend to use Argan oil or Moroccan oil solely as a beauty product, ensure that you purchase cosmetic grade oil and not the culinary kind.
The nuts produced to be used as culinary oil are specially roasted to bring their unique nutty flavor. The rest which will be used as a hair and skin care product are left untreated in order to retain the integrity of the vitamins and its inherent essential fatty acids.
Also, choose a dark colored bottle with which to place the oil as these are not just made in environment-friendly conditions, it protects the ingredients from ultra-violet rays compared to one that is contained in plastic.
Argan oil could be applied during the night as an effective moisturizing treatment. Believe it or not, it could similarly be used during the morning and applied as a base prior to putting on make up. You can try applying Moroccan oil on your face at night in order to see its effects on your facial skin. You can then gradually use it two times per day specially if your skin needs to be hydrated. To focus on problem areas, you can apply it on areas which are dry and prone to wrinkles. Any area of your body that is dry – such as your elbows or ankles – could benefit from this magical product.
Also, when you have purchased 100% pure argan oil, you need small drops for your entire facial area. A little drop goes a long way since it easily penetrates the pores of the skin. It also does not leave any oily or greasy residue. Plus, it could even be used around the area of your eyes.
It is highly recommended that you massage your face using circular movements every evening – this applies to every skin type. You can similarly apply it to your chapped lips by massaging this product gently on the affected area.
If you are experiencing brittle nails and you need to strengthen them, do combine equal quantities of lemon juice and the magical product and let your nails soak in the mixture for ten minutes. Doing so not only softens the cuticles, it also decreases the possibility of nail breakage. It also provides your nails with a healthy glowing radiance. Similarly, do rub a tiny amount of this product on your hands prior to going to bed.
Believe it or not, the product also gives remarkable shine to your hair. It also cares for your scalp and promotes hair growth. It also mends and repairs split ends. The product is also ideal for those who have over-processed hair due to chemical and hair coloring treatments.
If you want to restore damaged hair, add shine to your mane as well as moisturize your dry scalp, do apply large quantities of the item to your dry mane. Begin at the ends. Then, wrap your head inside a warm towel and let your head stay there for at least thirty minutes. You could also leave the towel on your head overnight. Then, wash it off and style your tresses as usual.
If you are suffering from dandruff, massage the oil in the roots of your hair. Repeat this procedure at least once or two times a week. In order to relax your frizzy hair, apply a drop of the oil on your hair and rub your palms together and scrunch your hair ends.
